Axia CollegeAugust 21, 2008An individual of whom has no affiliation to a certain religion such as the Catholic faith willonly judge if not seek information as to how the religion came about, and what the religion trulyrepresents. Catholic religion is a monotheistic based religion. Individuals in this religion do havea belief in God and the Bible which is only based on the source of God's holy words. Individualsin the Catholic faith seem to be very devoted. Finding someone to speak of the religion was notan easy task, but, in the end there were many individuals who was willing to give an insight onthe inside of the religion. Not all questions were answered, but enough was covered that I wasable to make a beginning in writing this paper. I planted myself downtown Baltimore at the StJude's shrine located on Greene Street near the University of Maryland Hospital and Medicalschool. Observing the comings and goings of parishioners as they are called, trafficking to thechurch seem to be on the hour .
After a good while the traffic of the parishioners seem tohave died, but at this time the nerve was not well built up to interrupt the parishioners goings andcomings as they seem to be on a lunch break from work or elsewhere. Without starting theinterview with someone, the conclusion was that people of the Catholic faith holds the practicesvery sacred to themselves.
The Roman Catholic Church is the largest religious denomination of Christianity with overone billion members. It claims that it is both organizationally and doctrinally the originalChristian Church, founded by Jesus Christ. It also claims unbroken Apostolic Succession fromSt. Peter and the other Apostles. It is both the largest and the oldest continuously operatinginstitution in existence (Catholism).
Once the traffic died down, a few steps was taken inside the church,
The Catholic and Muslim religion
The writer's style in this paper, in which he is prominent but invisible, is a serious obstacle to any understanding of the material. Further, the writer's method (interviewing a handful of individuals, most of them lay-people, while ignoring the priests who could have provided much more information more clearly) is silly. The result is inaccurate information, stilted information, and errors. The notion that Catholics do not believe in life after death would appall any Catholic. Further, Catholicism is a Christian denomination, not a separate religion.
The discussion of Islam degenerates almost from the outset into near gibberish.
Finally, the entire essay is written in a manner so stilted that I am troubled that any university level instructor would not demand that it be rewritten. This is not a good paper.
