The black church is not dead. Reviewing Eddie Glaude's and Joshua Lazard's article on the state of the black church as a noun an institution. Glaude states, the black church is dead, while Lazard rebuttal that the black church is very much alive. after reading Lazard's article I seem to identify with the reasons Lazard claimed the black church is not dead , writing responses for every bold statement made by Glaude's in his article the black church is dead.

Church of the Holy Sepulchre is also known as the Basilica of the Holy Sepulchre and the Church of the Resurrection (Orthodox Christians). Originally identified as being outside the settlement of Calvary, it is located in the Old City of Jerusalem, Israel and is considered one of the holiest sites in the world, as well as being a central destination for Christian pilgrims. The Church of the Holy Sepulchre was originally built by the Roman Emperor Constantine (272-337) in 330 CE upon the site of a Roman temple. It has since been controlled by Arab rulers, reclaimed by Christian crusaders, repeatedly ruined by fires and conquests, and long been subject to regional religious and political tensions. The Holy Sepulchre is a central Church in

Christianity has become something more than a religion for the Armenian people. It was their soul and mentality. However, the Armenians had especially hard times when their ancestral lands were invaded from the Far East and Central Asian Turkic tribes. When a breakdown of Constantinople began it also affected an allied capital of the Byzantine – the Great Armenia, and so hard times began: Christian churches were turned into mosques, the minarets were set around, and the faces of the saints in the churches painted over. The Ottomans considered Armenians, Greeks and Slavs as an inferior class. Islamic fundamentalism was formed in the second half of the 19th century and flourished during the reign of Sultan Abdul Hamid. Armenians became especially hateful for the Turks when they hoped to get help from the Christian

Bartolomé de Las Casas presents, for its time, an astounding claim human equality before God. Defending the native people of the New World from the violence executed by Spain and the claims to authority given voice by Juan Ginés de Sepúlveda, Las Casas provides a precocious assertion of human rights and the limits on civil and church authority. In this paper I will argue that Las Casas makes a nuanced assessment of civil government, to which he gives a vital but limited authority. I further propose that Las Casas, even while holding to the traditional and scriptural authority of the church, ascribes a similarly circumscribed earthly authority. The effect of these positions is to afford to non-Christians rationality and the freedom of

Over the past years of my life I have seen many changes, some for the good and others not as good. Change can be demanding and also crucial. The early believers would encounter this.

One of the many things the settlers of New France bought with them from France into North America was religion. Historians have argued that the church played huge part in the lives of the people in New France. Despite being far away from the leaders of the church and thus not directly under their control, the church still played a role in the lives of the people of New France. By the 1600s Jesuit missionaries had entered New France and started their attempts to convert the First Nations people. As more settlers moved into New France it was more difficult for the church to keep its status. They attempted with various methods to convert more First Nations and keep the European settlers in the church. However, post 1663, after the creation of the Royal Colony, the issues regarding religion and the issues it was causing did not decrease.

To begin with, the Roman Catholic Church was the single church in the middle ages. By itself, it was felt to have firm control on religious learning and on the relationship in the middle of people and God. Basically, the Church could control who went to Heaven and Hell. This gave it vast control over individuals' lives. The Church did much to decide how individuals would live, since it authorized what was lawful and unlawful.
