Abstract
This course will take the abundance of pluralism in America as its point of departure. We will begin with a book that lays out our theoretical framework and that traces the rise of pluralism since 1776. With this historical backdrop in place, we will then explore some of the many expressions of religious faith found in late twentieth century America. We must recognize, from the start, that we cannot even begin to cover the possibilities. In fact, our purpose will be to leave this semester with a sense of the vast diversity rather than a sense that we have basically "covered the material.
