Over the course of the past several weeks, you have been introduced to many events, people, and ideas that shaped the foundation of America’s history. Focusing on one specific area (whether politics, race relations, economics, family, etc), discuss what role Christianity seemed to play in the nation’s development. Note: If you come to the conclusion that Christianity seemed to not play a role in the nation’s development, that is a legitimate position to take, too! Regardless of which argument you want to make, provide specific reasons why you come to the conclusion that you do.
Discuss
- Post at least two substantive responses to your peers.
- Responses should help you and your peers help make meaning of the reading, demonstrate active participation in academic discourse, and express ideas with clarity.
- Responses could include suggestions for further resources, questions of clarification, or providing context and insight. Avoid simple posts of agreement; if you agree, explain why, and then thoughtfully further the conversation.
