The Houses of Worship Tours involve an introductory Zoom lecture by David, followed by on-site visits to a Hindu temple, a Buddhist temple, and a Mormon chapel. At each venue we will hear a lecture on the faith by a leader in the community. This set of tours is a great supplement to David’s comparative religion course. In that course we hear about religions mostly from an outsider’s perspective. During the tours we hear about them from the perspective of insiders.
