Course III: “Identifying and understanding the surrounding world”
A BRIEF PRESENTATION OF THE SUBJECTS:

Postmodernism
Is there any "truth" in our world? What does the "man in the street" think and believe?

Ethical challenges
Some of these challenges are universal and timeless; others come as a result of man’s ability to move the limits for physical and biological possibilities and some come due to political decisions and introduction of new legislations. The subject will focus on the "newer" ethical challenges.

Syncretism & New Age
New Age, a “label” used on any alternative religious expression available, seems to have regained force. The marketplace for alternative religion and alternative healing is more vivid than ever. The subject will enlighten the current situation, and will raise the question where to draw the line.

Islamic challenge
How do we meet the Islamic challenge? How can we build bridges? How can we warn against the danger of extremism at the same time as we respect Muslim-believer and his faith? How far do we go in bilateral symposiums?
