THEO1726 · Complex Problems and Enduring Questions
Morrissey College of Arts & Sciences
This is an Enduring Question course and is open to FRESHMEN only. You must take both PHIL1726 and THEO1726. What is the relationship between human beings and God? These paired courses explore conceptions of the divine that have been a fundamental part of Western civilization as well as the relationships that human beings have with the divine. The Philosophy course will examine how the Greeks viewed their gods in their literature and philosophy. The Theology course will explore various perspectives on God in ancient, medieval, and contemporary theological writings. There will be many intersections and divergences on the divine between the two courses.

great professor who doesn't give a lot of work. only actual assessment we had all semester was the midterm, where he gave us all the questions beforehand. super interesting if you stay engaged. very discussion based, so don't take this class if that isn't your thing
