The Bible has often been read (or dismissed) as an inspired book mediated through our cultural or religious beliefs. In this class, we will try and shed those interpretive glasses and instead read the Bible as a book written by people in a certain time and a certain place. We will examine the narrative stories in the Book of Genesis. We will use literary, linguistic and historical analysis. Reading the Bible as literature can enhance, upend or modify our former beliefs about the Bible.

More and more people consider themselves skeptics due to all the conflicts and turmoil involving religion. Has this, or other things, bewildered or confused your spirituality? Come explore the deeper dimensions of reality which all people (even politicians) share, regardless of faith and culture. If the concept of enlightenment is valid, what is it and how do people get there? Is there a “correct” way to ask for something from God? We’ll do our best to tune into more profound levels of being and understanding, through discussion and self-inquiry into “deep” philosophical questions. Bring a pen, cushion and notebook. We’ll talk about religions, psychology, spiritual evolution, see some videos, contemplate human dilemmas and do a variety of meditations at the end of each class.
