Tell us about a local business that makes your day?

Prospa

We all love a cheeky grin and a wave from our local grocer, or a toot from the delivery driver, or a coffee order that’s ready before we arrive. And especially over the last year, it’s been the small businesses in our communities that have almost made things seem ‘normal’. Well, it’s … View moreWe all love a cheeky grin and a wave from our local grocer, or a toot from the delivery driver, or a coffee order that’s ready before we arrive.

Any of these courses can be taken independently of the others as there are no prerequisites. Students can join our Religious Diversity classes at any time throughout the year. Courses are offered on a rotating basis with different courses offered each Term.

All courses are taught from an objective point of view. They are about religion and religious behaviour, taught from an anthropological and historical point of view, and are designed for participants to get a greater understanding of the depth and scope of the diversity that exists within the world’s various faith and belief traditions.

We're currently offering two distinct courses during Term 1, which begins the week starting Monday 15 February:

1. "Contemporary Beliefs and Practices"
Focuses on a comparative examination of the contemporary values and practices of the major world religions, and involves a critical exploration of lifecycle rituals and beliefs, from birth to death, food and clothing preferences, festivals and other activities associated with what religions do. In this course we look at selected topics in the contemporary practice of religion, focusing on a different topic each class, and view how each religion approaches that particular topic. Structuring discussions in this way allows us to focus on the similarities between the major world religions rather than on any perceived differences. Meets Friday mornings beginning 19 Feb 2021, 11:00am-1:00pm.

2. "Understanding Judaism"
This eight-week course, part of our World Religions series, provides a detailed introduction to the history, texts, beliefs and practices of the Jewish faith tradition. Meets Tuesday evenings beginning 16 Feb, 7:00-9:00pm.

A schedule of topics for each course is available on our website.

Where did all the waterbeds go?

Kylie Klein Nixon Reporter from Homed

Did you have - or do you still have - a Waterbed? I hunted high and low for someone who still used one of the originals, but couldn't find a soul who'd own up to it.
What do you think about these wonderfully kitsch pieces of retro bedroom decor?
