1. Define belief system using your own words. (5 points)

Belief systems are what our mind believes in. It usually our mindset or how we see the world
works. Belief system is our right and wrong. Belief systems are ways of thinking that
engender specific beliefs. Though the content of specific beliefs may differ, the process of
how belief systems produce specific beliefs is similar.
2. Complete these statements: (5 points each)

I have learned that the business practices of Christianity are focus on how business impacts
individuals and they also give fair wages to the workers. Their business practice usually
comes from the bible. Christian people way think that they have their own business practice
but they don’t know that it is not true. Our plans are already written in the bible we just
don’t know it yet. A trading Christian does not try to win another's products or services for
less than it is worth. Christians should be transparent and honest with their dealings,
products, and services.
