The religions of the world provide a great record of human thought and artistic expression. From the earliest times of prehistory down to the present day people have expressed their deepest convictions about the universe and mortal life in worship and symbol. All the arts have been brought into the service of religion: architecture, and sculpture, painting and writing, music and even costume.
This website hopes to bring together studies of religions past and present. It seeks to present not only a study of religion in a narrow sense, but a picture of history, geography, social life, current affairs and international relationships.
