Homework: Religious Impact on Social Issues
There are several social issues surronding the concepts of Freedom of Religion vs Freedom from Religion. I have listed a few below - you may have others. Pick 2 different issues (either from the list below or something else you are interested in)
For each issue:
I. State what issue you picked - state your sources
II. Find a source for each side of the arguement - what information did they provide to support their position?
III. After looking at both sides - what do you think?
1) Should American Laws be based on religious beliefs?
2) Should business be allowed to deny services based on their religious beliefs?
3) Should ‘In God We Trust' be on American currency?
4) Should abstinence sex education be taught in schools?
5) Should people swear on a bible before they testify in court?
