ATH-101-R1009 Introduction to Anthropology 23EW1 JR 6-1 Discussion: Religion For this assignment, reflect on your reading from Welsch, Vivanco, and Fuentes (2020) in Anthropology: Asking Questions About Human Origins, Diversity, and Culture: Part IV, Chapters 15 (sections 1, 2, 4, and 5) and 17. In your initial post, choose one of these questions to answer: According to Welsch, Vivanco, and Fuentes (2020), what is a totem? Give an example of a totem from your culture and explain how it functions as a totem. When an anthropologist talks about magic, what do they mean? Give an example of this kind of magic in the United States today and explain how it is similar to magic in non- Western societies. According to Welsch, Vivanco, and Fuentes (2020), what are the key features of a ritual? Give an example of a ritual you are familiar with and describe whether or not you think it meets this definition of a ritual. In response to your peers, discuss whether you agree or disagree with their statements. Do you have a different insight than the one they provided? If so, explain what you see as different and why. Use examples to justify your answer. Cite your sources in APA format. To complete this assignment, review the Discussion Rubric . A religious ritual you do is praying. My family also does this ritual for every meal. This is something that has come down through the generations in my father’s family. We have family time at dinner, and no phones are allowed. We like to be able to talk as a family and see what is going on with everyone for that day. Sounds to me that it is a ritual your boyfriend has for the Super Bowl traditions. My ex-husband during football season would always wear a jersey, have his steeler towel, favorite food, and not shave his beard until after the Super Bowl. I do agree with Stephanie’s reply that the National Anthem is a ritual.
