    Thanks! This video was really helpfull, but according to the 7 dimensions of Ninian Smart and according to my exams we also learned there's an eight dimension which is called, the political or economical dimension. Also interesting to look into.

    Truly a great way to compare religions, thanks man. An example would be how the 5th dimension could be examined to highlight which religious systems would hold nonbelievers accountable to it. Like you mentioned Sharia Law for the muslims or how that the Catholic See would convict those who didn't comply could be grouped together in contrast to Buddhism or Taoism that wouldn't effect those who refused to follow it's precepts. Or which religions, like some versions of Christianity, that ultimately believe all will be judged by God but doesn't enforce society to adhere to it's "rules".

    since you mentioned semiotics, have you read Matthew Pageau's 'Language of Creation?' I've been thinking about adding it to my reading list.

    John, I have not read his book but want to. I should get it and do a book review of it. I like Pageau, he speaks truth. Hope all is well. God bless 🙏

    you forgot to put SOCIAL 🤬 what is this???!! I have gained lots of knowledge from this video, I can admit but the fact that you have not talked about social is just sad. HOW COULD YOU?!?!?!!! My students are outraged. We had to click off this video! Thanks a lot, DAVID.
