Social control is the attempt by society for people to regulate people’s thoughts and behavior (Macionis, 2017). An noted before, our community has a strong Apostolic presence. It is very common for parents and church elders to encourage and persuade the youth to repent and join the church. Sometimes they use the fear of going to hell to persuade them. Technology is the knowledge that people use to make a way of life in their surroundings (Macionis, 2017).
The Cathedral of Saint John the Divine has a broad mix of traditional and nontraditional features. Some of the elements it has that are traditional to churches from the Gothic period such as an apse, ambulatory, choir, transept, rose window and nave. Some of the elements of the Cathedral of Saint John the Divine that aren’t traditional to Gothic architecture are the aisle chapels or nave chapels and the narthex. Narthexes were originally intended to separate the general congregation from those who had were not allowed inside the nave. This allowed those that were not welcomed into the nave to hear and partake in the services held inside the cathedral.
Did the creator of the universe create the heavens, seas, humans, and the sun in six days? When I was younger, these stories weren’t just stories but factual history to me. But I went through a phase of total disbelief and rejection of anything that is Catholic. One time, my mom urged me to go with her to a Catholic seminar where this special group of Catholic nuns and priest only visit San Jose once in a while. It wasn’t mass but I vaguely remember it was more of a long, intense session of prayer.
Thirdly, they can address issues that did not exist in the time of the Apostles. This is important as Catholics can’t find these problems in the Bible. In order to be able to do this, they must keep up to date with the lives of today’s Catholics. On the other hand people may disagree with me, firstly because in order to become part of the Magisterium, you must first be a bishop. It takes a long time in the Catholic Church in order to become a bishop, in turn a member of the Magisterium.

The days of our lives are structured around cycles of work, eating, family and recreation times. Any of these activities can become boring if we don't strive to find something interesting or enjoyable about them. The objective in going to church is to seek to build our relationship with God and others. I believe that if my church community takes steps forward in these resolutions it can bring a positive upraise in the attendance at CMC. Although I may not know some of the members that consist of this church, but I can also say that each and every member is apart of my family.
[4] Because one chaplain is Roman Catholic and another is Church of God in Christ doesn’t mean as chaplains they cease to be that. But on the contrary the strength lies in our diversity and possibly adds a dimension to the different beliefs. Conclusion Due to the growth of religious believes today pluralism becomes very significant. Pluralism helps the United States chaplains to function together in harmony in spite of the difference. Pluralism causes active dialogue which mean speaking and listening to one another 3 to great a greater understanding and awareness of each other faiths.
She practices her faith even though she can get crops or needs from the Wal-Mart that is “just down the road” (112). She can even perform a ceremony for her granddaughter in New York to the “twenty-first century totem pole…made of flash and neon” (114). Harjo is able to carry out her rituals and use her belief as a therapeutic figure for challenges she faces in life because nothing can damage her spiritual experience. Before Kamps became the spiritual being she is now, she once went to church to find truth in life. When Kamps’ mother died and she was pregnant, she needed the church the most.
Greek Orthodox Church A friend of mines entire family is Greek Orthodox, mainly her grandfather who is a Greek Orthodox priest, and their religion has always intrigued me. So seeing that this assignment called for experiencing new religions I took this opportunity to attend one of their church services as well as a baptism. Although I am of Greek decent, my family and I are not Greek Orthodox, nor have we ever attended an Orthodox service. Going in to this assignment, I thought knew what the Greek Orthodox religion was; I just assumed it was merely Catholicism but for a different ethnicity. Obviously I was wrong, this religion does have some similar qualities such as communion and the wedding process, but a lot of the details differ.
Multi-Cultural Experience Paper PSY400 Well I was born into the catholic religion so in my eyes most religions had to have something similar to the way catholic churches had their worship services, well I was wrong about that in that my assumption was way off and when I had finally been invited to go to church with my friends that are of course from a different religion I finally gave in and said to myself, “What do I have to loose, right”? So I ended up going on the date my friends told me to go and I also followed the directions to go there. So when I got there it happened to be an all Filipino Christian church, also known as The Iglesia de Cristo. Well when I first got there everyone greeted me and treated me nicely which I didn’t expect considering I felt like an outsider. When I first walked in to the main side of the church and I walked through the double doors I noticed that all the men sit together and all the women sit together, which to me seemed weird, unlike the catholic churches you get to sit together in a mixed crowd with your family.
