....and, now that we all know the source of the flyer picture and quote, here's the full clip again:

If you'd like even more context, the clip is from the episode "Jaynestown" of the brilliant-but-short-lived TV show Firefly. Have fun, and if you have something else you'd like to say, feel free to comment!

Everyone, welcome! You may or may not have seen the flyer for this class posted around campus or in the Religion Department office:

These three questions will guide our inquiries this semester as we explore Hindu, Buddhist, and Islamic sacred texts. We won't end up with simple answers. Rather, a major focus of our course will be understanding the ways in which big questions --- questions that are central to understanding the world and our place in it --- spawn a breathtaking array of responses. Even more, we'll look at how these responses evolved, are understood, and affect the lives of those who hold them.

As a fun little exercise, does anyone know the source of the picture and quote in our flyer?
