...The Christian church that has been an influential spiritual vigor in Western civilization’s history and alongside with Protestantism and Eastern Orthodoxy, one of the three main aspects of Christianity, the Roman Catholic Church follows its past to Jesus Christ and his Apostles. In excess of centuries, Catholicism has built up an extremely refined theology and an intricate clerical composition regulated by the papacy, which is the oldest enduring definitive dominion in the world. In retrospect, the explanation of Roman Catholicism is directly linked as a relation of Christianity. In its individual analysis of history, Roman Catholicism was created in the actual rise of Christianity (Fairchild, 2011). An indispensable element of the characterization of any of the other domains of the Christian countries and groups in addition to its association to Roman Catholicism, how did Roman Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy happen to divide? Was the split among Rome and the Church of England predestined? On the contrary, these questions could be vital to the explanation of Roman Catholicism itself. Such a description that remains rigorously to the authoritative Roman Catholic examination a general consensus in which the Roman Catholic Church has preserved a steady continuity from the time of the Apostles, all the while other religious groups, from the earliest Coptic to the modern church are a divergence from it. Now, the belief of faith that is shared by Christian churches is embedded...

...| Hinduism | HUM/130 – Week 3 Assignment | | Zak Werner | 9/21/2014 | | Hinduism is arguably the world’s oldest religion, and can be traced back to 5,000-10,000 B.C. With a billion followers it is also the world’s third largest religion. Hinduism is different from other religions, because it is not really a religion in the traditional sense with a uniting belief system. Hinduism is more of a way of life than it is a traditional religion when compared to the other major religions such as Christianity, Judaism and Islam. It is a set of traditions and beliefs that have evolved over a long period of time, and existing for such a long time that it’s distant past makes it difficult to find the source or single founder. Hinduism is the belief in the universal soul and the individual soul and the perpetual cycle of birth and re-birth. The status of being in each birth is determined by the principle of karma. The ultimate god of the Hindu religion is the universal soul, Brahman, and is formless and infinite. Since it is incredibly difficult to worship something formless and infinite, different gods have been personified with individual attributes and characteristics. The gods and goddesses of Hinduism amount to thousands or even millions, all representing the many aspects of Brahman. Therefore, this faith is characterized by the multiplicity of deities. The most fundamental of the Hindu deities is the Trinity of Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva - creator, preserver and destroyer...

...Buddhism and Christian Faith Jennifer Herron HUM/130: Religions of the World Week 9: Final World Religion Report February 19th, 2012 Glenda Mitchell Since the beginning of time, religion was a part of society, much like it is today in a more modern era. There are so many different religions and sects of religions which brings about different interpretations and meanings understood by the people who practice a certain religion. Each religion has its own individual story and theory on how this world came to be and what happened in order for it to be created. With so many different religions and people practicing each one it is easy to be disrespectful when it comes to others’ beliefs and sometimes all it takes is an open mind and the will to just learn about another faith and really get down to the bottom of understanding where it came from and how it all started. At the end of our lives we all wonder about the place beyond this world and many live by the thought that they will make it to this place whether it be called Heaven or something else. For this paper I chose Buddhism and Christianity to discuss and I will be able to explain the differences as well as any common beliefs these religions hold. To start off with I did not know much about Buddhism or what it was all about. My mother’s biological father was from Japan and so this is what really sparked my interest about this religion, other than the fact that I just think it is completely interesting. I spent a lot...

...Buddhism and Christian Faith HUM/130 Week 9: Final Assignment January 22, 2012 Introduction This paper presents research of the beliefs and practices of Buddhism; describes the worship space of the temple; summarizes an interview this writer had recently with a believer; and finally, compares Buddhism to Christianity. Religion has been around since the beginning of time, and religion has so many different meanings and different interpretations that people take in. Who created it all? Sometimes we tend to lose track of what is really there. There are so many different types religions and beliefs that each one has its own tale on how this world evolved and what took place that when it comes to beliefs and we should all respect each other’s faith because when it comes down to it we are all seeking the same desires when we all die, or some would say the day we are to be judged by God himself on Judgment day. In this paper I will thoroughly explain the differences and if they share any common beliefs. Buddhism In my research and experience with this practice, I have come to learn a whole other philosophy on what others come to believe besides the traditional religions and practices. Buddhism originated from a man name Gautama Siddhartha who later became what we know of him the Buddha Shakyamuni also known as “the enlightened one” he was born into the life of luxury but soon to escape his former life in search for the answers of the world’s suffering and understanding...

...Running head: WORLD RELIGIONS REPORT World Religions Report XXXXXXXX Axia College HUM 130 XXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXX World Religions This paper presents research of the beliefs and practices of Roman Catholicism; describes the worship space of the church; summarizes an interview conducted with a believer; and finally, compares Roman Catholicism to Islam. The Roman Catholic Church’s origins come directly from the teachings of Jesus and his disciples, as do all denominations of Christianity. “Jesus sent his disciples into all the world, and Paul had opened the church to the Gentiles. In a sense catholic Christianity was simply a development of Jesus’ plans and Paul’s efforts”. (Shelley, 1995) When Constantine became the first Christian Roman emperor in 313 A.D., Christianity became free from persecution and later even became the official religion of the Roman Empire. This however; marked the unofficial end of the unified church as power plays and politics became as much a part of the church as the gospels themselves. In 1054, the Eastern Orthodox Church split from the unified Church over the principle of supreme authority being held by the Bishop of Rome (better known as the Pope). During this time, the Roman Catholic Church also established its own authority to teach and interpret scripture. “Individual believers are not encouraged to read the Bible and seek its meaning; instead...

...World Religions Report Kevin Scott HUM/130 July 15, 2012 Glenda B. Mitchell World Religions Report Due to the fact that, religion is in itself a very sensitive subject, when discussing the topic great care must be taken to solicit the best answers to many questions. Religion refers to what many call a way of life, where a person expresses the belief in a higher power or faith. Assessing religion helps determine the meaning of believing in a “higher power”. This report will evaluate Pentecostalism and provide an understanding of what religion means to the people of this faith. An interview was conducted with Miss Monica Hampton, who is a believer of the Pentecostal faith. Christianity is a religion that has approximately 38,000 denominations. Many of which cannot be verified, to be significant. However, the denomination known as Pentecostal is not one of those unverified denominations. Pentecostalism like other denominations believes that there is only one God. Jesus is the son of God, and he died on the cross to erase the sins of man and granted passage into Heaven on Judgment Day. This is the central belief of most if not all Christians and the denominations of Christianity. They believe in “The Trinity”, which is “The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit are one of the same. According to Apostolic Pentecostal Beliefs website, you were required to repent for your sins, be baptized with water and The Holy Spirit. To be baptized in the Holy Spirit, means you had to speak...

...Chasidic Judaism Heather Ramirez University of Phoenix/HUM 130 Abstract Judaism is a Jewish religion. In this essay you will read about Judaism and how Chasidics are the most ‘Joyous’ of the Jewish society. There will also be information in this report about Chasidic Judaism and what it means to be Chasidic. When did the Chasidic Movement start, in relation to Judaism? According to Rabbi Novack, when did Judaism begin? What are the three main Holidays in Judaism? How are Bat Mitzvah and a Bar Mitzvah similar, yet so different? Why do they believe so intensely about circumcision? Are Jewish people, the chosen people of God? Comparing Chasidic Judaism to Christianity? Let us start to explore the world, and find out what Chasidic Judaism is all about. The Start of Judaism Judaism started when Moses went up to the Mount of Sinai after leading God’s people out of Egypt. According to Rabbi Novack (personal communication 2009) ‘this occurs when God gave Moses the Ten Commandments and the Torah for the Jewish people to follow.’ Since Pharaoh would not release God’s people they would endure the seven plagues. The passage in the Torah Mosheh 2: Shemot /שׁמות is the same as in the Christian Bible; Exodus Chapter 12. The list of the Seven Great Plagues as listed on Bibleplus that allowed the Hebrews to leave Egypt is as follows but ten actually occurred: 1. The plague of blood 2. The plague of frogs 3. The plague of gnats 4. The plague of flies (God makes a distinction...

Then he said, "Do not come near; put off your shoes from your feet, for the place on which you are standing is holy ground." And he said, "I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob." And Moses hid his face, for he was afraid to look at God. —Exodus 3:2, 4-6 Now as Saul journeyed he approached Damascus, and suddenly a light from heaven flashed about him.
