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.
