TOPIC:
Relationships with the Divine: choose 2 sacred works that we have read, 1 from the two Abrahamic faiths (Islam and Christianity) and 1 from the Eastern religions (Hinduism, Buddhism, and Confucianism) and build a compare/contrast argument about how the two texts you’ve chosen depict the relationship with the supernatural. You can consider any interaction between human beings (or animal characters) and supernatural elements like magic, demons, divine beings, God, ancestral spirits, or super powers. How do people in these stories connect with the supernatural? How are the similarities and differences between the texts significant?
