Comparing and Contrasting the Common Elements of Religions

DIRECTIONS: Select one “eastern” religion and one “western” religion discussed so far in this course. Review the lessons in Unit 1 and Unit 2 as you consider how these religions are both similar and different.

Your short essay should include four parts:

  • Briefly introduce the two religions you have selected to compare and contrast.
  • Identify and explain at least two commonalities between these two religions, using specific examples from the lessons.
  • Identify and explain at least two differences between these two religions, using specific examples from the lessons.
  • Briefly summarize & conclude your short essay. In your conclusion, explain what we can learn about religions in general by noticing both their similarities and differences.

As you develop your response, you should compare or contrast at least one example from each of the following elements of religion:

  • Historical & geographic origins
  • Core beliefs & doctrines
  • Core rituals & practices
  • Important texts & narratives

Your examples should be specific, and should cite the lesson from which your information comes, using in-text citations. Citations should use this style: (Monotheism, n.d.) or (Primal Religions, n.d.).

Refer to the completion checklist below throughout the writing process. Do not submit your Touchstone until it meets these guidelines.
