Eastern Religions

Description

In the not-too-distant past, a majority of Americans would have confidently declared the United States a Christian nation, rooted in a Judeo-Christian heritage. However, the rapid growth of religious pluralism has dramatically altered this landscape. Today, America has evolved into a vibrant spiritual tapestry, woven from diverse religious threads. The Eastern traditions of Hinduism, Buddhism, Confucianism, and Taoism are flourishing here, presenting stark contrasts to Christianity in both belief and practice. The once-insurmountable divide between East and West has narrowed, leaving many Christians perplexed by the distinctions. In this issue of the Areopagus Journal, Corduvan, Yandell, and Zukeran provide insightful guidance on Hinduism, Buddhism, Confucianism, and Taoism, respectively. Additionally, an in-depth exploration of Falun Gong, a Taoist offshoot gaining global momentum, is featured. For further exploration, readers may also find value in our previous issues, Engaging the New Age and Yoga: Stretching the Truth.
