520 | |a Unique among other disciplines in the academy, religion is almost exclusively approached as anobjectof study. Studyofreligion becomes studyaboutreligion. This approach, where religion becomes religious studies, is the product of the science-basedWissenschaftprinciple, which is often perceived to be wholly objective, without presupposition, and value-free. However, a post-modern critique shows that this principle itself is really none of these. This paper represents a call for re-orienting our approach to religion in the academy. Using a specific case at a specific institution - a historically Black, church-related liberal arts college - we will develop an approach in which the discipline of religion becomessubjectof study: studyofreligion becomes studybyreligion. We will show that such an approach is not only possible in the academy, but also desirable. | ||
