| Alternative Religions | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| Welcome to the the Alternative Religions Hompage. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| I have created this site to give students information on religions that are alternatives to the Big Five Religions of the world (i.e. Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Hinduism, and Buddhism). Many of these are very young religions, being only a few hundred years old, while others are more ancient than modern history can assess. On this site, I have included brief summaries for several of the most misunderstood (in my eyes) alternative religions around. Please use this site as a quick look at other faiths and their presence on the internet. Enjoy! | ||||||||||||||||||||||

| ATTENTION Writers, Thinkers, Philosophers, and Dreamers! It has become evident to me recently that trying to write informative and worthwhile essays for this site is not very compatable with being a full-time student. So, I've decided to try a little experiment. I am now actively soliciting essays on the topics discussed on this site and ideas for new sections and topics. If you are interested in contributing, please click here: Submision Info. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
