As I was walking back home from classes on Wednesday afternoon, I was thinking of what can I do or who can I observe for my redo of the observation paper. Walking in the middle of the courtyard by the Drexel Athletic Center, I started to hear people arguing over a loud speaker. At that time, it was sunny and nice outside and I was supposed to meet with my friends to check out new apartments. As I moved closer to the sound, I notice one older guy and younger guy was arguing. I thought this would be a great observation to do a paper on, so I sat down on a nearby bench and listen into their conversation. The argument was over religion and what they think about each other.
The older guy was standing on a platform, what looks like to be milk crates. He had a police remote microphone connected to a speaker and was preaching about Christianity and how everyone needs to repent their sins and how they are going to burn in hell.

The teen looks like he was a student at Drexel and it seems like they had an argument before because he was ready with a megaphone to make a statement. As they were arguing the teenager started to say that he was a homosexual and what does God think about that. The older guy yelled back at him and said if the teen does not change then he will go to hell. The pastor started to read verses from the bible and the teen started to scream hate speech. As the argument progress, more people started to show up and listen in. Police had to be there to surround the pastor, to protect the people around the area if anything broke

Throughout this time, the North American Christian Convention has grown and developed, but how did it all begin and how has history shaped it into becoming what it is today?

In chapters four through eight of Jacobsen and Sawatsky’s book, Gracious Christianity, there is an in depth analyses of the Holy Spirit, the church, the Bible, and the future. There was so much information that I read over, so I took a concept from each chapter that I found significant and analyzed it. There are many fantastic points made that really got me thinking about the life around me and how I am executing my own life.

It’s the day of the Holy Apostles track meet for my 8th grade year and the air was very brisk and breezy. The only running event I had for that day was the 800m race. I started running the 800m in 4th grade. It was my best race and the race I liked the most. I had never won the 800m against these schools before, and I definitely wasn’t expecting to win that day. My rivals in this race were from three other schools St. Leonards, St. Joan of Arc, and MQS . The girl from St. Leonards, Sydney Bartz, was a girl who I have beaten and have raced against since I was in 5th grade. My other two rivals were from St. Joan of Arc and MQS ,Zoey Goodman, who was the girl who I have been up against since 5th grade and I have never beaten her because she has
Kid wise there was several children and a pregnant woman killed during this. Adding to all these children the pastor's fourteen year old daughter was killed as well.

After further investigating the student organizations here on TCU’s campus, I discovered the Latter-Day Saints Student Association. Having grown up in the Methodist faith and living in a heavily Christian community, I felt this community would challenge me to break my boundaries and become a more accepting and open person. While I did have one Mormon friend growing up, I was never aware of her community’s belief system. Upon further exploration, I stumbled upon the Latter-Day Saints Student Association which provided me the ideal setting to explore the Mormon faith further.
This situation shows that if hate crimes are not punished severally a case like this could happen here in the United States or anywhere else in the world that allows hate crimes to be punished lightly. Religion is big here because any U.S. citizen has the freedom of religion however Hate crimes occur against people who have choose a specific religion over another, not only this they also occur inside many religion who have had a way of life that they always follow. One issue that is being addressed nationwide is homosexuality in churches and how church leaders and the congregation feel about it. Incidents preventing homosexuals to get married in Christian churches have been occurring for a while now and this causes preacher to address it in their sermons until an act was passed that prevented preacher from talking negatively about homosexuals. The Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act didn’t allow pastor to talk negatively about homosexuals one claimed raised against pastors stated “the American Family Association (AFA) warns that a minister could be prosecuted for preaching against sexual relations outside of marriage if someone in the congregation heard the sermon, committed an act of violence, and then claimed the minister's sermon inspired him to do it.”(Brownstein, 2008). This shows that there is an effort being put forward that will decrease the amount of hate crime against homosexuals, in 2014 1,178 reported incidents involving sexual orientation were reported. Even with the act supporters will not let it pass because they are entitled to freedom of speech as well as
