Summary Forms part of a series on world religions in which theater director Ronald Eyre travels around the globe asking people basic questions about their religious beliefs and practices. Vol. 1 visits various Protestant churches in Indianapolis and illustrates the character of American Protestantism by visiting services conducted by various denominations. Examines the reasons for the vigor of religious expression among both Black and white American Protestants. Surveys the trend toward institutionalization that Protestantism has taken in the United States and reflects on the historical essence of Protestantism. Vol. 2 visits various sites in India and observes the performance of several types of religious ceremonies. Explores the Hindu approach to God and the complexity of the Hindu religious experience.
