REL 2001 Lecture : Religion Class Notes Final2
Document Summary
Idealism; refusal to commit like siddhartha: all she does is apologize; no confidence, sees sacraments with church patriotism; because you belong to this groups. Amor fati- whatever fate brings to me, i will embrace it and love it. If religion and faith are meant to have value, they have to be meaningful here and now, rather than only in the future. 1: similarities, harris- religion tends to be dogmatic. Justice- discussion of punishment; justice can be either compassion or punishment. Faith is the evidence of things not seen: only god present in us can think of other people differently. Strong treating the weak like they are not weak god exists in everything; if we mistreat the weak we mistreat god. Justice involves punishment as well because it shows attention to peepz and sees them as a person with a will and capable of doing good.
