Enjoy reading the articles below as a creative stimulus, and then practice using the discussion board to introduce yourself. Tell us what you want us to know about you. Please share with us a specific experience as it relates to your religious views and beliefs – this will lead to greater dialogue and provide a point of reference which will enrich the class for all of us. Use and document at least one of the articles to aid in describing your views on the topic of religion. Choose an article that applies to you; do not use an article to critique another group or generation – we are looking for common ground..
· Notice there are two paragraphs.
· In one paragraph you tell us whatever you want us to know about you that will enrich the class experience for all of us. Be sure to include a specific personal experience/example dealing with the area of religion (it can be positive, negative, or anywhere in-between) (2 points).
· In the second paragraph, select and document one article which most closely resembles your currently held views on religion, then use it to help you describe your personal experience on the matter. Do not simply express agreement or disagreement with the article, demonstrate how it resonates with your views. (2 points)
· Finally, note the documentation format and imitate it in your post. (1 point)
