Ethnic vs. Evangelical Religions: Beyond Teaching the World Religion Approach.
Tishken, Joel E.
History Teacher, v33 n3 p303-20 May 2000
Offers background information on the formation of comparative religion. Demonstrates that the world religion approach is inadequate by examining case studies of Mithraism, Santeria, Mormonism, and Baha'i to illustrate the shortcomings of this approach. Advocates the use of an ethnic versus evangelical religion approach to teaching global religiosity. (CMK)
