Man and His Gods

Slides/tape (2 parts), 33 min., 1972 Teacher's guide available

Part one centers around humankind's attempts to communicate with the divine. Stressing the universality of faith, the program explores Catholicism, Judaism, Protestantism, Hinduism, Buddhism, and other religions, beginning with their earliest practices. Part two studies our need for religion. It sets contemporary needs for embracing or rejecting religion in the context of the past role of religion. A broadened view of religion allows us to better understand how we perceive ourselves and others.
