What the college says
Religious Studies is like thinking, only louder. You won’t be told what to think. Instead we introduce you to the ideas of philosophers and ask: does this make sense? Religious Studies will help you to become sharper and more articulate in your ability to reason. It will encourage you to analyse and spot flaws in reasoning and construct a better argument. It will help you become more confident in your ability to debate and exchange ideas. Above all, you will reflect in a mature fashion on fundamental questions about meaning – “Who am I? Where am I going? What is right and wrong?”
What you need to get on
