Islam & WIL 2.1

We read through 1.5 handouts (you'll finish the 2nd one on Friday):
          Spread of Islam          Islam Divided
I find this area of study fascinating.  I hope my interest rubs off a little.  Please know that, while I am not a very religious person, it is such a part of human culture that everyone should be mindful of others and at least understand and accept people with various interests and viewpoints.  It's simply too sad that so many conflicts can be traced to religious differences.

WIL 2.1 Moral Decisions
We have been learning about religion and how Jewish monotheism was a new concept that truly transformed the world.  Over half of the world's population self-identifies as being Jewish, Christian, or Muslim.  If this is true, why do so many people who claim to be religious make decisions that go against the basic tenets (principles or teachings) of their chosen religion?  
Or...
Look at how you make important decisions in life.  What factors do you consider?  What, or who, guides you in finding solutions to whatever questions you are facing?

Remember that WIL 2.1 MUST BE SUBMITTED VIA GOOGLE DRIVE!!!  Rename your document by copying and editing the following (the link should take you to the folder):
