This is part of a new "Worlds of Wisdom" series I am creating that builds from my Introduction to the World's Religions class. This is by far the most elaborate PowerPoint I have ever made. Let me know if you think I should do a tutorial. Based mostly on the chapter on Yoruba Religion by Stephen Prothero in God is Not One. Teachers: Please feel free to use this in your own classes.
