  1. RELIGION VOCABULARY According to the KBAT

  2. Monotheism

  3. Animism

  4. Boundaries •  Consider the situation in Northern Ireland , where a Protestant majority and a Catholic minority are in conflict over coexistence and their future. This issue is not strictly religious, but stems from a time when all of Ireland was a British dependency and British Protestants migrated to Ireland. This is an example of an intrafaithboundary. Ethnic groups in the north and south see religion as the focal point of differences that go much deeper than that. Will Nigeria ’s location astride an interfaith boundary ultimately destroy the country?

  5. Ethnic Religions

  6. Pilgrimage

  7. Cosmogony/Shamanism

  8. Hierarchical religions

  9. Ghetto • The term "ghetto" originated from the name of the Jewish quarter in Venice, established in 1516, in which the Venetian authorities compelled the city's Jews to live.

  10. syncretism • religious syncretism, the fusion of diverse religious beliefs and practices. Instances of religious syncretism—as, for example, Gnosticism (a religious dualistic system that incorporated elements from the Oriental mystery religions), Syncretistic cross in Acolmán, Mexico (c. 1560s), with the face of Jesus Christ shown at the center and the crossbar showing foliage representing the world tree connecting the underworld to the heavens.

  11. Zionism • the national movement for the return of the Jewish people to their homeland and the resumption of Jewish sovereignty in the Land of Israel.
