  1. Do Religions Still Have Arranged Marriages and Polygamy?

    Do Religions Still Have Arranged Marriages and Polygamy?

    Marriage and religion have always been related, and religions often address the spiritual and ethical components of marriage, but in many cae, marriage customs are based on cultural expectations. That means that while religious teachings may guide some of the taboos, vows, and underpinning ideas of what is expected of a man and woman in their marriage, the details come from the surrounding culture and society. Whether or not a marriage is arranged and the number of partners in a marriage are two aspects of marriage that are heavily effected by the surrounding culture and society.

  2. What Do Buddhists Believe?

    What Do Buddhists Believe?

    Buddhists are as diligent about the practice of their faith as any Christian or Muslim. They also are willing to travel to spread their beliefs as missionaries. There is a strong Buddhist community spread across the globe that has organized itself into different schools and monastic traditions. Buddhism sets forth a clear set of values in the Five Precepts, gives greater meaning to life in the goals of the bodhisattva path, and views the world through both the ordinary powers found in a human’s five senses and through the extraordinary powers that Buddhists believe can be achieved through study, koans, and diligent meditation.

  3. Do Christians Need to go to Church?

    Do Christians Need to go to Church?

    Church services are meant to help Christians deepen their faith and give practical advice and encouragement on how to live out their faith each day.  Church services are intended not as a time for a group of individuals to have simultaneous devotional experiences in a room together but as a time for believers to join together in a corporate experience. Church attendance has many positive benefits for Christians, but most people understand that under certain circumstances a Christian may not be able to attend services regularly. Poor health and job demands may often interfere with a regular practice of church attendance.

    Can Non-Muslims Go to a Mosque?

    Prejudices and misconceptions about Islam are common in the West, particularly since 9/11. For many non-Muslims, this religion often feels standoffish and closed to outsiders. This perception has led to the commonly held belief that non-Muslims are not allowed inside of mosques. Listen to this episode to learn a bit more about whether Muslims really do exclude non-Muslims from their houses of worship and what may be behind such exclusivity, if it does exist.
