The term ‘Bushido’ has over the years developed from the traditional translation of ‘the Way of the Warrior’ towards the more modern notion of a “national spirit of Japan, especially the military spirit.” This paper will analyse the impacts that various religious traditions such as Shintoism, Buddhism and Confucianism have had on shaping the classical ideals of the bushido code and the influences that the bushido code played on the actions of the kamikaze fighter pilots during World War II.

The role of tradition within religion in medieval Japanese society was of great significance. Shinto and Zen Buddhism were two of the major religions practiced in medieval Japan. Shinto was mainly concerned with daily life, while Zen Buddhism prepared the people for the life to come. The samurai also followed an important code called Bushido, a form of warrior philosophy. The ancient Japanese religions helped people understand the universe and also provided a connection between the physical world on earth and the spiritual world.

As an African-American in the United States, I participate in activities to help me identify with my race. Yes, there are many types of African-Americans, but we all share similar ideas, values, and traditions that bring everyone closer. As African-Americans, we strongly believe in religion. Since slavery, religion has played a tremendous role in contributing to our beliefs. We believe there is a greater divine who knows our purpose, and has the power to control it. In addition, we believe prayer changes things especially when times become rough and unbearable. It is common for Black children to “grow-up” in the church and attend with their families every Sunday. Although I am in college, this has not change. I attempt to at least go twice out the month.

For the knights it was a code called Chivalry (Doc. 1). “A great ceremony came and each knight took the vows of true knighthood” (Doc. E). They promised to be loyal to the king, be merciful, and perform no wicked deed (Doc. E). The code also called for them to be courteous and helpful to ladies (Doc. E). Chivalry also relates to Christianity because some of the rules in the code of Chivalry are the same as what Jesus calls Christians to do (OI). The samurai’s code, bushido, was similar to Chivalry in many ways (OI). Like Chivalry, the samurai are asked to be loyal to their master. They are also requested not to behave sinfully (Doc. E). Unlike Chivalry, these warriors are pledged to take duty before everything else including family. Carl Von Clausewitz once said “Courage, above all things, is the first quality of a warrior” and that is definitely a similarity between the knights and samurai

Why is it that “#blacklivesmatter” is only read and hashtagged in regards to police brutality? How come the names of Sandra Bland, Michael Brown, and Trayvon Martin are instantly recognized, but most people question who Amber Monroe, Elisha Walker, and Shade Schuler are? Why was Bruce Jenner’s transformation into Caitlyn Jenner more important than the deaths of the 17 transgender woman murdered this year? A hate crime is defined as “a crime motivated by racial, sexual, or other prejudice, typically one involving violence.” Monroe, Walker, and Schuler are all African American transgender woman and victims of hate crimes. This isn’t a situation where only black transgender woman lives are being taken though, all transgender women are suffering

African American religious music is the foundation of all contemporary forms of so called “black music.” African American religious music has been a fundamental part of the black experience in this country. This common staple of the African American experience can be traced back to the cruel system of slavery. It then evolved into what we refer to today as gospel music. The goal of this paper is to answer three main questions. What are the origins of African American religious music? How did this musical expression develop into a secular form of music? What is the future of African American religious music? These questions will be answered through factual research of African American traditions, artists, and various other sources.

James H. Cone’s God of the Oppressed is his examination of the origin, development, and significance of black theology as it relates to how he and the black Christian community view God. For Cone, in an America seemingly dominated by white theology and the white Christian community’s views of God, it is imperative to acknowledge and attentively listen to the voices of the theologies of other races and what God means to them, especially that of the black community. Cone asserts without hesitation that the God that is referred to in the Bible and black religion is a Deliver of those held captive by the bondage of oppression. Cone not only asserts this viewpoint of God as the Freer of oppressed people, but he validates this assertion through the use of Scripture, the black experience, history, and tradition. Overall, the central theme of this book is that a plethora of factors continually shape and construct a people’s theology and how that theology is significant in regards to how they see God, the world, and themselves.

Shinto and Buddhism are two different traditions that have flourished in Japan for hundreds of years. Generally, followers from one of the traditions tend to follow the guidance of the other as well, which makes the relationship between Shinto and Buddhism very rare in world religions. At first, when these two traditions contacted each other in ancient Japan, there was a lot of confusion, but eventually they were able to coexist. However, even though Buddhism and Shinto share similarities regarding flexibility and independence, there are more differences between them proven by Buddhism’s spread to ancient Japan, their contrasting practices and beliefs and the different outlooks on the afterlife.

Drowned God's concept centers around the idea that human history has been manipulated to cover up certain facts.[2] The true history, according to the game, is that aliens from the Orion area of space seeded humanity on Earth thousands of years ago and have since guided its development.[3] An ancient, highly developed civilization was lost millennia ago in the Great Flood. The library of Alexandria housed much of what game writer Harry Horse called "forbidden knowledge" before it was destroyed. The Knights Templar, whose membership included luminaries such as Leonardo da Vinci and Isaac Newton, preserved the information for centuries. In the 20th century, the Philadelphia Experiment opened a gateway into another dimension, first freeing the

“The Shinto beliefs connected the samurai to their people and land … taught them to respect authority and the established social and political hierarchy of Japan.” (Daily History What Were the Beliefs of the Samurai?) Shintoism connected these warriors to society and made Japan their land. Shintoism was a big part of being a samurai because it brought them closer to their people and gave them the determination to fight for their

Baptism in (or with) the Holy Spirit is a very important, distinctive Christian experience in the life of the believer. The basis is found in the book of Acts, specifically the event of Pentecost.

These four signs are exclusive for Shingen himself or the head of family. During last battle fought by Shingen’s son and alliance of Oda Nobunaga and Tokugawa Ieyasu, Kurosawa emphasized on these four sign heavily and tried to parallel different armies’ action with the meaning of the signs. So we could actually feel the speed of the wind while Takeda Family’s cavalry was moving. “The rows on rows of cavalry "bewitching the world with noble horsemanship," the brilliant ensigns in their primary colors representing the different noble houses, the incomparable swiftness of the warriors in their movements and their swordplay, the peremptory long-distance shouts, the precision of the gunfire, the instantaneous obedience of the foot soldiers to their commanders: all bespeak the beauty, glory, and efficiency of an elegant warfare, even in defeat. “(Manheim)The heavy emphasis on the signs also showed us steps one by one how Takeda Family was defeated. Because the strong connection between these signs with the Takeda Family, while the Kagemusha found the flag with those 4 signs in the water we immediately understand Takeda Family was defeated totally with nothing left.
