Comparative Religion Project
Objective: Provided a list of resources (both presented by the instructor as well as through student initiated research) students will be able to identify various aspects of an assigned religion and compare the attributes of their assigned religion to the 6 other major religions (or the divisions within) in a written report as well as a student led informational presentation.
Rationale: Religion effects many aspects of public life. Governmental policies, daily practices, feelings of right and wrong, societal roles for men, women, children, etc, many times have a connection to a particular faith.
