Thesis:
Due
to the different interpretations of religion, a division has arisen between the
religious who seek to better themselves and the world through religion and
those who seek to abuse religion to harm or shame others.Questions:
- What is the purpose of religion?
- Why do people practice a religion or faith?
- Why don't people practice a religion or faith
- How do people interpret religion?
- Why does Steinke use in Apocalyptic imagery from the book of Revelations in Friendswood and how is this relevant to the topic?
- Why do people abuse or warp the meaning of religion?
- How has religion been abused in the past?
- In the present?
- Why stereotyping an entire religion is inaccurate and harmful?
- What can people of faith do to rectify the damage caused by misled individuals of the same faith?
These questions were very thought-provoking, well done. I also plan to explore the topic of religion. I liked how you tried to incorporate religion with other themes within the novel. Your questions were solid and well-written. Have you thought of viewing religion in light of authenticity? Did you plan on exploring the dogmatic institutions of religion or the more personal, spiritual side of religion?
