Explore the meaning and value of the Christian tradition

Understanding religions is becoming increasingly important if you seek to understand your own society. Religious and political issues shape the internal and external policies of Australia and our neighbours. While religion is sometimes perceived to be the source of tension and conflict in our world, it is also a source of good. If you wish to understand the world, you must understand the religious motivations that govern or influence people's behaviour and their perceptions of the world. As a student of Religion, you may come from any faith or none. You will explore in an open-minded manner the beliefs by which people live and explore the different approaches to the fundamental questions of human existence.

Religions are among the most influential forces shaping the human experience, both in the past and in the present. Without some insight into diverse religious traditions, it is not possible to understand today's world or to prepare adequately for tomorrow's.

New Zealand society, politics, education, and the arts continue to be influenced by the Judeo-Christian tradition while increasingly being affected by other traditions such as Hinduism, Buddhism, and Islam. Globally, religion often functions as the principal source of individual and communal identity, answering questions about meaning and purpose, morality and freedom, responsibility and happiness.

Religious Studies investigates religions critically but with empathy, seeking to appreciate the role of religion in society and the perspectives of religious believers. It differs from theology in that it is not grounded in any particular religious tradition but deals even-handedly with religions found throughout the world. Religious Studies complements other subjects such as history, philosophy, classics, politics, anthropology, and literature.
