Growing up in a Christian household I was exposed to the concept of God and religion at a very young age. Due to this you can say that religion has influenced a lot on the way I think and the opinions I may have. Not until the age of 15 was I ever very involved in my local church. I personally decided to have a mentor. This person is supposed to be your spiritual guidance, the person you can always count on to be there for you no matter what time or day. Her name was Ligia. Ligia was the person I
taking this religion course, religion has been just a word that at quick glance seems very easy to define, but with further investigation, requires more thoughtful exploration.

if nothing else in the course of recent decades, reflection has fundamentally been executed as a piece of Yoga. In any case, contemplation, doesn 't generally have anything to do with Yoga. It is in truth a demonstration in itself. Reflection is for the most part performed in the wake of doing Yoga asanas/stances, since yoga pushes you into a condition of quiet, which is ideal for contemplation.

upstate New York during the 1820s. I have chosen to study them because recently I have been fascinated by the different branches of my religion (Judaism) and sought to see other religions (like Christianity’s) divisions. Many religions have recently begun changing to equalize the roles and responsibilities of men and women as the world has become more outspoken about women’s rights. Mormonism is sadly one of the exceptions to this change. The Mormon position on women in the household has changed very
don’t deserve it; not as a reflection of their character, but as a reflection of yours.” (Dave Willis) Derived from this quote is a good challenger and motivator to people of all religions to show respect and gratitude towards people who might not even deserve it. Reuven Malter displays respect toward his good friend, Danny Saunders, when he deeply studies the writings of psychoanalysis. Danny Saunders also treats not only his friend, Reuven Malter with respect of his religion, but also his father who
The theme of my art project is “REFLECTION”. My initial thought when I began to consider this theme, was to explore aspects of reflection and try to stay away from the conventional definition of reflection, as in reflecting something onto or off a surface.

denominationally within the Christian tradition, to an acknowledgement of the variety of people today and respect for the diversity of their religions and beliefs. The current critique of denominational education and of denominational religious education in particular, risks undermining the place of this core subject in all schools, just at a moment when deeper reflection on religion, belief, spirituality and ethics could contribute enormously to the emergence
Browning's literary pieces represent the time frame during which the men were disciplinarian, and very possessive about their surroundings. Browning represents madness of the early modern period through the protagonists of his two famous literary devices, "My Last Duchess" and "Porphyria’s Lover”. Browning uses the concepts of objectification of women, acts of stooping, and lack of reflections in the character, shown through numerous literary devices. The
