The Role Of Tolerance In Primitive Baptist Schools

There are many factors that play into public opinion such as education, income, region, ethnicity, religion and gender. These factors have overlapping qualities between these groups that show similarities and differences. One example is that groups with rigid morals such as religious groups are more like to have conservative values such as being against abortion. Groups like Protestants, Non-Catholic Christians, and other big religious groups like Catholics and Jews are more likely to be against because it is in their religion. For these specific groups, it says so in the Bible. Midwest and Southern regions are more likely to want to outlaw abortions than the northeast and west. This could be because these two groups have the highest population of religious groups, especially in the south. Therefore, these two groups are probably similar in this belief due to their overlapping qualities. Lesser education groups are less politically aware and do not promote terms of civil rights and liberties, so they are not as likely to support abortion. Lower household incomes as well do not support abortion, and it is probably because people with less education tend to have lower household incomes.

“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.” These are words spoken by Nelson Mandela that I strongly agree with.

This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another." When we have this kind of responsibility in the congregation, it makes a domain where we are all in this walk of life together. We appreciate great circumstances together and express gratitude toward God, yet we likewise stay with each other amid troublesome circumstances. Truth be told, if there are never troublesome circumstances, we would never reach the point of knowing whether we are submitted or not. " The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy." - Dr. Martin Luther King

Religious tolerance varied in the two regions based off the main religion that was shared between the settlers. Both regions had a few similarities when dealing with religion. The New England and Chesapeake settlements had established churches and taxed settlers in order to support the church. Each region also experienced the Great Awakening which created a lasting effect on both the colonies and colonist lives. Most of the New England colonies practiced Congregational religion, another category of Puritans, and anyone who didn't was either non-affiliated or Anglican. The Anglican religion was dominant in the Chesapeake regions. While the Chesapeake colonies had a degree of religious tolerance, the New England colonies provided almost little

Through the course of history within society, education has been the basis of all the knowledge we contan. Education and knowledge can be essential to our daily routines wherever we may be. We can use education in favor of many reasons such as political views, jobs, among society. According to Martin Luther King Jr, education’s purpose is to give discerning to one. To “distinguish truth from lies”. However, in MLK’s eyes it goes the other way around. Education has been lead to a path in which it is being used for the convenience of prejudices and the advantages of the superiority.

On Monday, I went to the local Crossroads Baptist Church, located at 850 Edwards Ferry Rd NE, Leesburg, VA. This was my first time experience as I am Hindu and my parents never exposed me to any churches. Dr. Kenneth K. Baldwin was the pastor at the time I went. Luckily, I got the chance to speak with him after the service. After our brief conclusion, I realized that he had a great vision for his church and is leading it to success through his passion. I sensed his passion for preaching and religious beliefs as they were evident during the service. Despite this being my first visit to a church, I learned a lot of valuable things about churches and Christianity.

In many places throughout the world there are rigid top-down cultures and theories on education. These cultures have been seen in World War II Germany, in literature, and in education. It has been shown throughout history that these cultures can and will cause many problems to fester as a result. These issues include the manufacturing of sheep-like masses that simply follow what they are told and taught, the culture losing its ability to distinguish between what is morally right and wrong, and the forced masking of emotions and true feelings. The only way to prevent a culture from simply manufacturing sheep-like masses is by encouraging people to not be afraid to stand out in a crowd and allowing, and even embracing, free thinking.

we find it difficult to get along with people in the church, perhaps it is because

Tolerance in the British colonies varied, mainly depending on the diversity levels where they were founded. In some of the colonies, there were laws established so the importance of Christianity would be conserved. Other colonies were welcoming to different religions, and executed either limited or full tolerance for those religions. Unfortunately, colonies that were bigoted enough to damage fabrications of differing religious views or the belief itself existed.

Political tension and a religious crisis presented a need for a re-establishing of a society in New England where religious tolerance could sustain order and harmony in the colonies. This wasn’t exactly a foolproof plan as they thought it out to be, because of the recurring oppression they had seen in Europe. Puritans were a sect of christianity, one that James I was seeking to purge out of Europe during the reformation, that followed the almost brutal ideals of John Calvin. There was two branches: Presbyterian and Congregationalist. They believed in predestination, deplored the hierarchy of the Church, and allowed pleasures some would find odd for a religious group. The “pilgrims” (also called separatists) later became a different, and even

Ever wonder if there was a limit to education and how it can be taught? Are people telling the true meaning of education and demonstrating how one is equal in learning education? Martin Luther King has given very crucial information in supporting the fact that many people are not taught equal or not even taught at all. At Martin Luther King generation it was all about where you came from and the color skin you were. White colored people were separated from the blacks and all white colored people would receive the finest education money can buy and for the African American’s they would receive the worst education in the United States. The majority of the teachers back at the Martin Luther King time were very selfish and didn't want to teach

Unfortunately, most discrimination comes from ignorance within a population. Ignorance is a disease that plagues the entirety of humanity. I feel its poison as it wraps itself around my thoughts. As it causes me to judge people that I do not associate with and have no right to judge. This makes discrimination by its nature impossible to eradicate. The wall of ignorance that stands before humanity may be indestructible. I believe, however, that society can cut windows of enlightenment into this wall and that if every person cuts a little bit of this wall away, the shadow in which discrimination exists will slowly fade away with each incision. I would like to witness the entirety of my future college, preferably the University of Washington, bask in the light of

Keeping the faith is such an all-important aspect in my school; however, the beliefs in my faith have brought an uncomfortable repercussion. Tolerant people are in my school and for them, I am grateful, but intolerant people are also in my school and for them, I am not so grateful. I have ascertained ways to cope and work with such people. Working with people who view your existence as a bane is no easy task, but yet, I have accomplished such a feat. It's hard to work with these people, but it's life, and I am certainly going to experience another occasion like

I find myself in a daily struggle with God, fighting through my worldly mindset and constantly questioning and justifying certain aspects of my life. Personally, it drives me to seek wisdom in the scripture but I can see in large groups where the many predispositions might get in the way of a very personal growth opportunity. I know personally when it comes to group discussions I shy far away from being the center of discussion. I leave that business for those braver and more confident than I.

Within my growth as a Christian, I have usually surrounded myself with others who possess the religious beliefs that I hold. As a result of my
