List down three (3) statements/claims that you agree

with and another three (3) that you disagree with.

I agree with the vast majority of people follow the religion of their
parents and rarely take time to understand alternative philosophies or
find out what other religion actually stand for is because they truly
stand on what they only believe because that’s what they have been told
and is often that people come to philosophy thinking “I don’t’ believe in
God, but I want to understand life, and I want meaning. Isn’t philosophy the
place that will explain this?” However, it is not asserted that the history of
philosophy simply does not accord with the view that philosophy is
somehow a godless discipline or comes from the point of view that God
doesn’t exist.

I agree with Jews have been receiving a lot of backlash, hatred,

prejudice, and bigotry than any other, although this has often been
more a racial issue than a religious one because seven decades after
the Holocaust, the hatred of Jews and Judaism has reappeared with a
vengeance in the major capitals of Europe. Apparently, Jews as a people
and Israel as their land are once more the scapegoats responsible for all
the world’s ills and the cause of all of its wrongs.

I believe this to be true about all religions, that their original leaders
and prophets believed the same things were important: love and
kindness. These promises of new life and mystifying promise lands are not
simply handed out to everyone, however. They require an individual to
faithfully practice and participate in accordance to the demands of specific
commandments, doctrines, rituals, or tenants. Regardless if one personally
believes in the fundamental values, beliefs, and doctrines that certain
religions present, one does not have to look very far to recognize the
significance that religion has in a variety of different social aspects around
the world.
What do you think is the author’s stand regarding the
existence of God and religion? Did this stand affect
her way of summarizing the history of religion? Justify
your answer.

Philosophy of religion can play an important role in helping persons

understand and evaluate different religious traditions and their alternatives.
In many religions God is also conceived as perfect and unfathomable by
humans, as all-powerful and all-knowing, and as the source and ultimate
ground of morality. Existence of God, in religion, the proposition that there
is a supreme supernatural or preternatural being that is the creator or
sustainer or ruler of the universe and all things in it, including human
beings. Some theists have argued that morality depends on God because
God is the only person who can assure that justice is done, namely that in
the next life one receives good and evil in proportion to the good and evil
one has done. In other words, morality can be fully actualized only if God
exists, perhaps that justice can be brought about fully only by God does not
show that the source of morality is God.

Going back to the article "A Brief History of Religion,"

why did the author concluded that "Jesus,
Muhammad, and Buddha are shaking their heads in
disbelief and despair at what is being done in their
name?" Do you agree with this statement? Justify
your answer.

The Catholic in Born Again does something different when it comes to

baptism. In the catholic, the head is poured out and it is said that the sin we
inherited from our eldest will disappear. In Born Again, only offerings are
made, the born again offer sacrifices when they have a child and also pray
for them to have a good flow of life and continue to serve God. But as for
me there are no real religion in human life. Why? because sometime
religion is what separates us from other people the truth is we can live
without religion but through only in believing in Jesus Christ. When Jesus
died he died not for religion he died because of affection and love of human
soul, he gave his life not in religion but to the people, the world that through
him that world/people might be saved from destruction. "We can live
without religion but we cannot live without knowing the truth and that is the
truth in believing God"
Why should a country’s history, geography, and
culture be considered to understand a religion and its
traditions?

It is important, at the outset, to try and define the two main terms we are
using geography and religion. Religion leaves an imprint on landscape,
through culture and lifestyle. Religious structures such as places of
worship, and other sacred sites dominate many landscapes. However, we
are not hapless victims of our geography and other factors have been
shown to shape beliefs about a variety of topics. Geography does not only
affect where particular religions or belief systems, such as the world’s
major faiths, are located but it can affect how specific beliefs are practiced
and behaviors that it encourages.
