	Description:		With the new year, the Rev. Dr. Thomas Shepherd begins a new series about the old, great religions of the world. The program lineup will parallel his Unity Institute online course in World Religions and will feature guests from various religious traditions and students from Dr. Tom's class. This week will be about the ancient roots of religion and spirituality. Are we hard-wired for prayer and ritual? How far back in time does organized religious activity go? Is there any evidence that other species-not just humans-may share a sense of wonder at the mystery of life? Tune in and listen as Dr. Shepherd's panel discusses The Origins of Religion-What Is the Sacred, and Why Do People Need It?
