Used for notes in class on health issues. - Guide to Religion Discussion (/userfiles/526/Classes/1486/Islam Judaism Christianity-0.ppt)
This is a presentation we used in class to guide our religion discussion. Why do we study these religions? You can't gut religion from history. If we do, history is no longer accurate. How can a student understand the Arab/Israeli conflict without understanding what these two groups believe? How do we understand the Puritans in Plymouth and their role in the founding of our own country if we don't understand why they made the treacherous journey to an untamed land? In short, we learn how these religions have impacted the history of the world.
