本課程觸及了宗教哲學的諸多議題，尤以宗教經驗為重點。討論共分為四大區塊：宗教的本質與要素、超越者與「神」的討論、宗教經驗的多樣性、宗教與理性的界限，隨進度將選擇不同文本以解讀與討論。

This course touches on many issues in religious philosophy, especially religious experience. The discussion is divided into four major areas: the nature and elements of religion, the discussion between transcendent and "God", the diversity of religious experience, the boundary between religion and reason, and different texts will be selected to interpret reading and discussion at the pace.
