Let’s Begin…
It's perfectly human to grapple with questions, like ‘Where do we come
from?’ and ‘How do I live a life of meaning?’ These existential questions are central to the five major world religions -- and that’s not all that connects these
faiths. John Bellaimey explains the intertwined histories and cultures of Hinduism, Judaism, Buddhism, Christianity and Islam.
What do you think is the relationship between religious ceremonies and religious beliefs? Choose examples from any two of the five religions in the lesson.
