As one of the first theorists to explore the unconscious fantasies, fears, and desires underlying religious ideas and practices, Freud con be considered one of the grandparents of the field of Religious Studies.

They go on to describe their courses on Freud and religion, their innovative pedagogical practices, and the creative ways they work with resistance.
