Homosexuality and the Church: Catholic and Jewish Views on Homosexuality
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page discussion of the contemporary views of the Catholic and Jewish religions on the topic of homosexuality. The author notes that while the mainstream components of these religious institutions have matured to the point where they accept homosexuality as a natural condition, the predominant view is that homosexual acts are an abomination in the eyes of God. Some factions of both Catholicism and Judaism have taken a more flexible opinion, however, and the continuing pressure of the issues is sure to result in a continuing trend toward greater receptivity.

How Women Are Perceived According To The Kaballah And Jewish Mysticism
[ send me this paper ]
30 pages in length. Women and religion have shared a long yet challenging relationship throughout the ages. Not unlike virtually all other global religions, Jewish women have experienced the oppressive nature of a patriarchal society wherein the decidedly male overtones of daily life served to construct her very being. Kaballah and Jewish mysticism, however, afforded women a bit more recognition as far as gender respect and contribution was concerned, focusing upon the value of women within the home atmosphere and the extent to which they were instrumental in nurturing the children within the context of Judaism. Bibliography lists 26 sources.

Islam, Christianity, Judaism/A Comparison
[ send me this paper ]
A 4 page research paper that contrasts and compares these religions. Ryan (2004) points out that non-Muslims are frequently perplexed when they find out that Muslims consider "Adam, Abraham, Moses, Jesus" and many other biblical personages who are known to both Jewish and Christian scripture to be Muslim (p. 19). This does not mean that Muslims consider these historical figures to have been, literally, followers of the Prophet Muhammad, the founder of the Islamic faith. What it does mean is that these men individually surrendered themselves to God and His will. The phrase, "surrendering to God" is the literal meaning of the word "Islam." According to Ryan (2004), the root words in Arabic for both "Islam" and "Muslim" refer to what human beings of faith are called to do, i.e., surrender to God. As this observation suggests, these major world religions have similar roots and commonality. In order to find out more on this topic, this literature search was instigated. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
