\n For this assignment you will be working independently. You will be researching a world religion of your choice (if you practice a religion, it should be different from your own religion), answering questions about the religion, and composing a research paper.\n <\/p>\n
\n Make sure it is specific: for example just \u201cChristianity\u201d is not a good choice. Choose a specific denomination of Christianity, like Lutheranism, for example.

You may consult the professor with questions or to get feedback on your choice.\n <\/p>\n
