I. Mini Lesson/Lecturette: The Context of Religion

Religion is the pursuit of transformation guided by a sacred belief system. A religion is

also viewed as “an organized collection of beliefs, cultural systems, and worldviews that
relate humanity to an order of existence” (“Religion,” n.d.). Many religions possess holy
scriptures, narratives, or sacred accounts that aim to explain the origin and meaning of life and
the universe.

Other views about Religion

• Religion is an organized system of beliefs, ceremonies, and rules used to worship a god
or a group of gods (Merriam-Webster Dictionary 2014).
• Religion refers to the pursuit of transformation guided by a sacred belief system. It is
defined as “people's beliefs and opinions concerning the existence, nature, and worship
of a deity or deities, and divine involvement in the universe and human life” (“Religion,”
2009).
• The Latin word religio refers to “something done with overanxious or scrupulous attention
to detail” (Bowker 1997). This term may have probably been derived from the Latin verb
religare which means “to tie together, to bind fast.”
In its original sense, the word refers to expression of proper piety, that is, binding to
god (Grassie 2010). Quite later, religion was used to designate formal belief systems
and tenets. The term was eventually applied to what we now call as religion because
of the manner in which people performed rituals during those days.
While religion may be universal in all stages of human history, it does not follow that
all individuals are religious or even religious to some degree (Parrinder 1971).
Religious scriptures are the so-called sacred texts which religions consider to be
central to their faith. Religious texts may be utilized to “evoke a deeper connection with
the divine, convey spiritual truths, promote mystical experience, foster communal
identity, and to guide individual and communal spiritual practice” (“Religious Text,”
n.d.).
Religious rituals refer to the behavior performed by a religious member or a group of
believers with reference to supernatural power or a deity. It includes varieties of
behavior such as reciting prayers, singing of hymns, dancing, fasting, putting on of
special types of cloth, taking birth in holy rivers, crawling, etc.

Origins of Religion
Since the nineteenth century, people began to show great interest in explaining the origins of
religion. In fact, numerous theories have been postulated to explain the origin of religion while
looking at primitive societies for ideas concerning the development of belief systems (Hendry
1999).
• Archaeologists believe that they have discovered elements of religious belief
practised by Homo sapiens almost 60,000 years ago.
Apart from burying the dead, various items such as foods, tools, and other
objects were placed inside the site.
All these rituals imply reverence to their loved ones and perhaps the thought
that the dead will utilize these materials in the afterlife.

1
 While they believe in the presence of supernatural entities, they also try to
communicate with them (Ember & Ember 1996).
• The nineteenth century witnessed the development of the fields of the social
sciences that enabled scholars to apply a more scientific way of explaining
phenomena rather than speculate on matters concerning the origin of religion.
Through field research, observations, and analysis of historical documents,
scholars formulated a number of theories that have endured well into the
present time.

ethnologist
Primitive people believed in souls
or anima found in people (seen in
dreams) and in all of nature. Since
spirits could be helpful or harmful
to human beings, early people
had to pray to these spirits, offer
sacrifices, and appease or avoid
them.
In his investigation, he found out
that the Melanesian people
believed in mana, a mysterious
force that inhabited all of nature.
All early people began their
religion in cognizance of such
force; the destructiveness of the
mana can be avoided by
establishing taboos.
Human beings first developed
their religions from their
observations of the forces of
nature. Early people became
aware of the regularity of the
seasons, the tides and the phases
of the moon, and began
personalizing them by giving them
names, describing their activities
with tales that transformed into
mythology. Primitive people
identified the forces in nature,
personified them, created myths,
and developed religions around
them.
In Australia and Africa, basic
cultures held a common belief in a
distant high god, that originally
there had been one great god
above all others, and that he may
have been the creator of the world

or the father of the many lesser
deities. This high god went away
and had little contact with the
world that resulted in majority of
attention and worship to local
deities. Primitive societies were
originally monotheistic, but
because it was difficult to worship
just one god, religion was
corrupted to polytheism
People had gone three phases of
development concerning the spirit
world: (1) primitive magic
(wherein people attempted to
control nature in the hope that
nature will cooperate if rituals are
done properly); (2) religion
(wherein people implored nature
to cooperate since they have
realized that nature can not be
coerced); and (3) science
(wherein a rational understanding
of nature is operative).
There were no gods and that
belief in gods was simply wish
fulfilment. Troubled people who
could not cope with the difficulties
in life projected their wishes and
developed gods and religions
Religions were developed by the
few as a means to control the
masses and suppress revolution
as a result of the continuing
struggle between classes. Rulers
and allied priests wished to
control all wealth so they had to
create a scheme of gods,
heavens, and hell. Masses were
persuaded to accept poverty and
be obedient to inherit bliss in
another life.
Religion originated from the guilt
that individuals supposedly feel in
hating their fathers. All males
possess a similar tendency to
desire our mothers and hate our
fathers. As a result of this
subconscious hatred and ensuing
guilt, a great father image was
projected in the sky called God. A
healthy mature person can face
problems without the need for
gods or religions.
 1. Elements of Religion
Most scholars agree that every religion has the same three basic elements:
A. Wisdom or Creed
• Refers to the Theological Beliefs and scriptures or Holy Writings of s religion.
• A Creed is a Set of Truths that must be accepted and agreed to by those who
wish to belong to the religion, those who choose to be a follower or disciple.
Briefly, a creed is a “Summary of the principle beliefs of a religion”.

B. Worship or Cult
• Refers to the way of worshipping, to the rituals that are practiced by followers of
the religion.
This is often a difficult element to describe, because it involves so many
diverse elements.

C. Works or Code
• Refers to the Ethical Values and the system of Moral Practice directly resulting
from an adherence to the beliefs.
• It is a set of moral principles and Guidelines that must be respected and followed
by those who would be identified as members of the religion.
A code, when used in a religious sense, is simply a summary of the principles
and guidelines by which people choose which actions are good, and which to
avoided.

I. Mini Lesson/Lecturette: Forms of Theistic Belief

We heard terms like belief systems and worldview. What could be the relationship of these
terms to the world religion? Let’s find out in this lesson.

Worldview is a particular philosophy of life or conception of the world. Worldview is more than
culture as it extends to perceptions of time and space, of happiness and of well-being. In
fact, the beliefs, values, and behaviors of a culture stem from its worldviews.
Derived from the German term ‘weltanschauung,’ the term ‘worldview’ refers to the cluster
of beliefs an individual holds about the most significant concepts of life such as God, the
cosmos (universe), and humanity.
These beliefs, which may or may not be true, form a general picture, a broad-spectrum
outlook, or a grand perspective on life and the world.

• It is a collection of beliefs about life and the universe being held by people (The Free
Dictionary 2014). For a certain individual, social environment and upbringing are critical in
the development of a religious life.

Belief System refers to the set of principles or tenets which together form the basis of a religion,
philosophy, or moral code.
• It also refers to a particular way of ordering the realities of one’s world.
• Belief systems are often deemed as convictions, often in the form of supernatural or
religious beliefs, though they may also take the form of scientific views, or any philosophical
belief relating to the sphere of daily life.

Table 1. Different Kinds of Belief systems or Worldviews

Kinds Description
1. Monism there is no real distinction between god and the universe
2. Polytheism the belief and worship of many gods
3. Monotheism the doctrine or belief in one supreme god
4. Atheism disbelief in or denial of the existence of a personal god
5. Agnosticism god cannot be known

Theism, often used as a synonym to monotheism, is defined as “a belief in the existence

of one god viewed as the creative source of the human race and the world who transcends yet is
imminent in the world” (Merriam-Webster Dictionary 2014).
• Monotheistic religions claim that there is only one God who could have designed
and created the universe or may have directed all events that led to the creation
of everything.
• There is one supreme God who is both personal and moral, and who seeks a total
and unqualified response from humans (Hick 1990).
• Modern-day examples of monotheistic religions include Judaism, Christianity, and
Islam.

7
 • On the other hand, polytheistic religions that are common among early people
recognize many principal gods among whom no one is supreme. These include
the ancient religions of Egypt, Greece, and Rome wherein people worship a
multitude of personal gods. Eastern faiths like Buddhism, Taoism, Shintoism,
Hinduism, and Confucianism falls under this category.
Meanwhile, monism asserts that there is no genuine distinction between
God and the universe. Two implications arise from this belief.
• Firstly, it contends that God is dwelling in the universe as part of it.
• Secondly, the universe does not exist at all as a reality but only as a manifestation
of God.
Furthermore, agnostics deny the possibility for man to acquire knowledge of the
existence of God.

I. Mini Lesson/Lecturette: Theology and Philosophy of Religion

Theology is the study of the nature of God and religious belief.

• Webster’s dictionary defines theology as “the science of God or of religion; the science
which treats of the existence, character, and attributes of God, his laws and
government, the doctrines we are to believe, and the duties we are to practice. . . the
science of Christian faith and life.”
• In the fifth-century, the philosopher Augustine defined theology as “rational discussion
respecting the deity” (“Theology,” n.d.)
• Simply put, theology is the study of God. It comes from the word ‘theos’ which is Greek
for ‘God,’ and ‘logos,’ meaning ‘word’ or ‘study.’
• Theology involves the systematic study of the existence and nature of the divine. It
deals with the study of the nature and purpose of god that may be undertaken using a
particular perspective. Theology is a study, not a formulation of religious beliefs.

Philosophy is the study of the fundamental nature of knowledge, reality, and existence,
especially when considered as an academic discipline.
• The word ‘philosophy’ came from the Greek words ‘philo’ (love) and ‘sophia’ (wisdom)
and is thus literally defined as “the love of wisdom”.
• Considered by some as ‘the mother of all branches of knowledge’, it may be defined
as the systematic examination of principles and presuppositions of any field of inquiry,
including religion.
Philosophy in general is the rational investigation of truth, whereas
Religion often makes the same kind of truth claims but doesn't claim to base it on
reason or rationality, but instead it is based on other things like faith.
There are things that we experienced in life which are not based on rationality/logic
but simply because of our faith.

10
 Philosophy of Religion refers to the philosophical study of the main themes and concepts
involved in religions.
• It may also include an enquiry into the religious significance of historical events
(e.g., the Holocaust) and the general features of the cosmos, the laws of nature,
and the occurrence of conscious life.
• Philosophy of religion deals primarily with issues concerning religion, which
includes analysis on the existence of a divine being or on sacred texts.
It may involve studying the “concepts and belief systems of the religions as
well as the prior phenomena of religious experience and the activities of
worship and meditation on which these belief systems rest and out of which
they have arisen” (Hick 1990).
It seeks to analyze various concepts such as god, spirit, karma, creation,
immortality, heaven, hell, and purgatory among others.
Philosophy of religion is not a branch of theology but a branch of
philosophy. It is said that this particular study need not be undertaken from
a religious perspective at all because atheists, agnostics, and the person
of faith can and do philosophize about religion (Hick 1990).

Day 4.
I. Mini Lesson: SPIRITUALITY vs. RELIGION

We are through with the context of religion, and all the terms that are connected to it. This time,
we will try answering one of the questions in our mind about being religious. What is a religious
or spiritual person? Is it enough to say that a person is religious if he/she goes to church
devotedly? Well, let’s try to find out.
Spirituality is the quality of being concerned with the human spirit or soul as opposed to
material or physical things.
• Spirituality is one’s integrative view of life. It involves a quest for the meaning and ultimate
value of life as opposed to an instrumentalist or materialistic attitude to life.
• The term “spiritual” being defined as “relating or affecting the human spirit or soul as
opposed to material or physical things” (Oxford Dictionaries 2014). One author points out
that it is quite common for people to say that they are “spiritual, not religious” (Grassie
2010).
Spirituality comes in since for thousands of years, people have been searching and
yearning to understand the mystery of life and the universe. There may come a point
in time when an individual realizes that life is not entirely accidental and meaningless
(Parrinder 1971).

12
 Spirituality may be manifested in quite a number of ways. For example, a person may
believe in the presence of an overwhelming power greater than oneself or perhaps a
person can be fully mindful of one’s purpose in life. That person can also have a
feeling of oneness or a bond with other living beings.
• Spirituality is derived from the Latin word spiritus, its verb root is spirare which means “to
breathe” literally. There is an impression that people are surrounded by a “divine reality as
pervasive, intimate, necessary, and invisible as the air we breathe” which is similar to Hindu
prana and Chinese chi. (Grassie 2010).
• Spirituality is something an individual can have without being implicated in the ambivalent
complexity of human societies and institutions” (Grassie 2010).
Although traditional spirituality is frequently associated with religiosity, many people
assert that personal spirituality can grow separately from religion. One may find inner
peace, satisfaction, and contentment in life that are truly independent of religious
dogmas and tenets.
• Religious but not spiritual (RBNS) man is thus sketched as someone who can give gifts,
pray, and do many good works, but he or she does not understand what it is to offer
oneself. Accordingly, this person may pay ‘tithes’ exactly, but he or she will not put himself
or herself to death in the moments of temptation.
• Spiritual but not religious (SBNR) individuals associate faith with the private realm of
personal experience rather than with the public realm of religious institutions, creeds, and
rituals. He or she may ignore membership in religious institutions, participation in formal
rituals, and adherence to official denominational doctrines.
