From the Introduction... Welcome to the academic study of world religions. The Latin title of this workbook, Sapere Aude!, is the famous 18th-century motto of the European Enlightenment, a movement that sought to break with the narrow thought and blind faith of the so-called Dark Ages, in order to promote critical thinking, or rational objectivity and cultural tolerance. This phrase was coined by the ancient Latin poet, Horace, but recast for the Enlightenment by the famous German philosopher, Immanuel Kant. Sapere Aude is an imperative, meaning: “Dare to think!” This will be our goal as we proceed. This workbook contains primary information. After each section of each chapter there is a short list of key terms, names, events, etc., in bold print in the text, to be identified, and a short-answer essay topic to be outlined in the space provided. This workbook, along with a copy of the online images (accessed per syllabus instructions), is the only text you will need while taking the online exams, with their objective questions and short-answer essay.

From the Preface...   Welcome to the academic study of world religions. The Latin title of this textbook, Sapere Aude, is the famous 18th-century motto of the European Enlightenment, a movement that sought to break with the narrow thought and blind faith of the so-called Dark Ages, in order to promote critical thinking, rational objectivity and cultural tolerance. This phrase was coined by the ancient Latin poet, Horace, but recast for the Enlightenment by the famous German philosopher, Immanuel Kant. Sapere Aude is an imperative and is often translated as “Dare to Think!” This will be our goal as we proceed. This textbook is also a workbook containing exercises on basic information regarding the five primary religions. After each lesson of each unit there is a short list of key terms, names, events, etc., found easily in bold print in the text itself, to be briefly identified in the spaces provided. Students should compose these identifications in their own words. This book, along with a copy of the online images (accessed per syllabus instructions), is the only material students will need while participating in the online discussions and while taking the online exams. I hope students and all readers will find this an informative textbook and arewarding workbook.

Theophilus of Antioch was a second-century Syrian bishop who sought to promote in three books, collectively known as Ad Autolycum, a moralistic form of Christianity. Given that this form of Christianity is generally considered by scholars as atypical within the early church, Theophilus has not received the same amount of attention as have other second-century theologians. Rick Rogers seeks to redress this gap, offering a fuller analysis of the rhetoric and focus of Theophilus's theological system as it is manifest in Ad Autolycum. Rogers concludes that Theophilus's thought may have been closer to the emphasis of Hellenistic Judaism than was any other form of New Testament or early Christianity. His book will hold strong appeal for scholars and students of early Christianity.
