The Sociology of Religion
In Sociology, we study religion in
a manner different from how it is studied in theology.
Theology is all about “Theo” (God).
As a science, Sociology can not prove
or disprove the existence of God, but it can look at the social ramifications,
social organisation and social functions of belief systems, rituals, celebrations,
beliefs, values and practices.
See the paper on the
Beliefs Dimension.
