Well we started the morning with our usual
"Good morning Smith." (I think we are getting better at it)
Our readings and our annotations for chapters 9-18 were due today as well as our song annotations.
We got to discuss our songs in groups
On the board we wrote big ideas and questions we had from the reading. Everyone had great points and questions. I will not put them all but here where the ones that stuck out to me
Three Big ?'s
-Understanding other religions helps us understand our own better
-Those who struggle with religion are those who work to confirm it the most
-Pg. 52 "madness that we all (including animal) have to escape to eventually be free
One ?
-Why do humans start wars over religion when its obvious that all religions have the ability to coexist?
-"Simply wild creatures seeking to fit in" (pg. 52) Are we animals seeking to fit in as pi says?
-How does the zoo/animals influence Pi's ideas on religion?
