Synopsis "The Covid Pandemic and the World's Religions: Challenges and Responses (in English)"
Believers from a variety of faith communities were asked to assess how the Covid pandemic has affected their faith. The anthology collects their responses to key questions, such as: - How does your faith explain why such events occur? - How has it affected your religious practices? - What changes has it necessitated? - What differences might we expect once the pandemic is over? - What have we learned from it? Two exponents of each major religion and a number of minority faiths comment on these issues, combined with a concluding essay by the editors assessing the overall impact of the pandemic on religion worldwide. Faiths explored include Jewish, Christian, Islamic, Hindu, Buddhist, Shinto, Sikh Baha'i, Jain, African Traditional Religion, Zoroastrian, Unitarian, Jehovah's Witnesses and Christian Science.
