Religion 212 - Discussion Five - Week 5

Hello Fellow Co-Students,

I would like to share what I have learned in the diverse studies of religions that we have been traveling through and would like you to know that I am awed by the differences and approaches towards worshiping God.

That the cultural blending of race and religion is synchronous with the area and heritage. Also, that I want to go really bad to see the Hindus, Indigenous people, Shinto rituals, India and all that it has to offer, Tokyo really fab New Year Awakening and everything. I am open to all the religions that are listed in this book, Living Religions, by Mary Pat Fisher, I would love to be one of the Black Americans to be invited to attend and participate respectfully in everything that I have seen, read and mentally experienced.

I have a fascination for people of different origin and their roots and culture intrigues me greatly. I want to spread my wings like they do when they come to America. I am coming one day. I will always be fascinated.

Thank you.

Felicia

Response to Co-Student

It is interesting that you studied with Buddhist monks and the karmic burden is what fascinates me in this religion. The eradication facet is really deep and profound because the thought that the lack of riddance of this burden can affect your next life is rather daunting and intimidating and downright scary.

I too am timid about hurting people but sometimes you have to fight back and pray for forgiveness. Further, I find my peace within my Father and love and protection. This keeps me strong as well as helping someone fight that is weaker than me.

Thank you.

Felicia
