First, the religious culture that impacts me is being Lutheran. A value we have is going to church to pray, we are expected to participate and be kind and respectful to everyone joining us. I do this by going to church on Sundays and Wednesdays, (confirmation), along with going to church choir too. I attend the services quietly, and always try to respect people´s space. Another value is our spiritual beliefs, we pray to

Everyone of us has our own unique culture and religion identification in the world. Also, known by the culture beliefs, behavior patterns, and which group or religion, we represent, but we have to represent each other because of their religion after all we are all human beings first. Also, their are many different variations of cultures living together in the same neighborhood, these days, and representing each other for cultures identity and what we believe in. We need to avoid any misunderstanding there is in the world about any cultures or religion.

There is an ample scope of debate as to whether Mormonism is Christianity or not. It is true that both are similar; however, Protestants and Catholics equally are against the acceptance of Mormons to be Christians. There are many doctrinal similarities between the Catholic Church and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (Mormon). Both churches accept Jesus Christ as the Savior of the world and teach that salvation comes through faith in Christ, repentance and baptism. The differences between the two churches revolve around priesthood authority, continuing revelation, the nature of God, the purpose of mortality and eternal marriage as well as methods of baptism. Beyond its shared nature

I attended a Sunday church service and studied the behaviors, body language, music styles, nature, and the atmosphere in music in a Social context. Gospel music has evolved and changed in many ways through out time. There are various types of church music, and it can be played in many ways. By observing Gospel music, I learned that it creates an energy that covers the whole congregation with an essence of unity and togetherness. Gospel music has many features and is a great example of music in a social context.

Calvary Chapel Fort Lauderdale, located at W Cypress Creek Rd, was this beautiful building with an arch entrance and with a walking little street with a lot of trees and

Short term political factors include the result in the Slave Trade by the government and what happened because of that. The government’s response towards crimes was to make their punishments harsher, but this didn’t have the affect they wanted. Getting hung, transportation or being banished from England to one of Britain’s distant colonies, were the most common ways to be punished after committing a crime. Their plan failed immensely; hanging prisoners turned into a social event, families would come and observe, eventually turning it into a carnival-felt situation. Despite the government making their punishments harder, thinking the result would reduce the numbers, it remained the same therefore Britain’s prisons were a large concern. Convicts

Every Friday, when I go to the Catholic Worker, I witness "people motivated by the teachings of Jesus" by their energy and joy in their service. Before the people in need come inside the volunteers form a circle and pray (Cornell 1). When we form the circle, I feel the Holy Spirit lighting a fire in my soul because others are willing to imitate Christ and pour out their love to whoever they come in contact with. Beginning our day with prayer acknowledges that Christ and his teachings are needed in this mission and that all the good work we are able to do is done through Christ. Cornell speaks of the Catholic Worker movement as a "new society within the shell of the old" because it embraces the law and teachings that God has already given us,

Christianity is the most widely followed religion among the world’s population with approximately 2.3 billion followers, half of which are Roman Catholics (Liu). As a result of this widespread popularity, there is a unique and specific subculture that distinguishes this religion from others. As a lifelong member of Catholicism myself, I wanted to delve further into the cultural aspect of this religion and the unambiguous traits. Culture is defined by the shared norms, beliefs, and values within a group. Catholicism is no exception and is an established subculture with specific characteristics, material culture, hierarchical organization and other aspects that make it very distinctive.

In this day in age, people of all ages and backgrounds have been pulling away from Catholicism. Many people have stopped going to Church weekly, which affects their relationship with God greatly. The Catholic Church has to convince its followers to revert back to their old ways of attending Church weekly and working to strengthen their relationship with God by not sinning and following His commandments. This message of reverting to the old ways and bettering their relationship with God is important and needs to be delivered because without it the Catholic Church will continuously lose followers especially with the younger generation already not having a strong relationship with God. Also without people taking their Catholic duties seriously, they will jeopardize their chances of going to Heaven. This powerful message would need to be delivered by priests and in such a way to instill fear into people because no emotion reaches people better than fear and it will

The cultural relativists have offered us a view on what is the good, is depending on whether the virtue is approved by one’s culture or not. This brings us to another question—what is culture? Seemingly, people in a different country are practicing different religions so that everyone should have

I felt like I didn’t belong in this place. There was no logic to any reason or thought, just follow my teaching blindly and I shell lead you to glory. Am I supposed to follow somebody’s teaching with no logic or reason proof. Also, to say what not right in life and what’s sin for the church is very hateful. What happened to respecting other’s idea and culture, and taking other as they are. Why rejected and hate the people that need our help the most. This place wasn’t for me, and I totally felt out of place when we were supposed to repeat what the priest said in prayer. I did get a sense of community when I was in church, and I can see the benefit of going to a place of prayer. It was a sense of unity and we got each other’s back when we need it. Also, a sense that an upper power has your life cover, and nothing bad is going to happen to you. If something bad happens, then know that this deity made it happen because he knows that you can handle it. It a feeling that I got life insurance given to me by this

The religion group that I pick would be Christianity because I love to know what the other religions believes in and how do they worship. In ethnicity group that I pick to talk about is Asian (Asian descent) I have learned a lot since this class about the different type of ethnicity group but I work a lot around Asian when I am at work. These two choices are different from each other but I would love to learn more about their religion and ethnicity group.

As a young child my parents had always raised my siblings and I to go to church. Every sunday we would attend church, and every wednesday we would attend a type of youth group. It was a great experience to be so involved, getting to meet new people was also a major thing for me. As far as I remember, we attended a catholic church with my aunts and uncles. It was a nice church, great people, and great opportunities to learn new things, but we just never attached to it. By that I mean we would go to church, but leave without feeling changed, or impacted. When one attends a church one expects to leave with a lesson, or something one can learn from. This church just wasn't doing that for us, and then family problems started to come. As someone

The victim laid in the upstairs bedroom, smeared with blood. Their limbs had been amputated harshly, and a thin cut ran across the base of the woman's throat. I stood with a couple other officers from my squad, examining the crime scene. We'd been called a few minutes earlier, when the woman's neighbors found her. It looked like she had been dead for a couple days, with flies beginning to swarm the body.
