Re: General Thoughts: Studies of Religion I

Woooo how many pages did you get? I got 4, and I only put in an overall statement because I didn't directly address it in the intro haha.
I just used my english skills to structure it!
Ah I see. I wrote 9...

wrote 2 pgs and one line for trial and got 20, wrote 3 pages for this one. Quality not quantity. And for first question, I reckon it is unification.

It was a strage exam... but one less exam people.

Ok...so I did the multiple choice, yes there was some 'iffy' questions, but was good overall.

Section two - Christianity (Paul of Tarsus) and I nailed it :) Strange to have a source provided though?

Section 3 - Judaism. Well i disagreed with the source (well kinda). I said Judaism palces emphasis on BOTH compassion and justice. Not either/or.
But then I lost it after that and kind of went off track...structure as below:

Intro: Distinctive nature is that Judaism is about relationship with God and people. This is the purpose of life (to maintain good relations) and hence is the response to human existnce.
Paragraph 1: Relationship with God (talk about Abraham and recieving law. Law equals 'just' way of life)
Paragraph 2: Covenental relationship (Moses at Sinia and 10 commandments and bioethics/link to justice as in ethical conduct)
Paragraph 3: This (above) leads to basic knowledge for life (Maimonides 13 Principles of Faith and synagogue service). Idea that kindess is neccessary for good relations (compassion)...this was a wierd argument lol.
Paragraph 4: This (above) is seen in the expression of Judaism (Syn Service with focus on communal nature of worship). Once again compassion is required for communal worship/relation with others.

I screwed up s3... I like the idea, but I don't think they came through well in my essay. At least it finished!

Now to go and study for Ex1 English...

Re: General Thoughts: Studies of Religion I

I swear I got the first multiple choice question wrong I put the Mutual Understanding (D) after second guessing myself out of Unification (B).... Now pretty certain I was right the first time :p damn over thinking.

you could try but i think it will still come down to different perspectives:

i see the answer as UNIFICATION because the chief purpose of the ecumenical councils/ecumenism is Christian unity so ecumenical dialogue has the purpose of unification, not in a literal sense of becoming just one denomination but unification in their views of JC

others see it as mutual understanding, but mutual understanding leads to unification, the eventual purpose of ecumenical dialogue

i still think B - but can easily see where the others are coming from
