The Core Assessment Paper assignment is a paper analyzing a religious community apart from your own(Christian). This project will require attendance at a religious service distinct from your own faith practice, interviewing members and clerics from that faith community, studying their own faith literature, and responding sociologically to that material. Use of resources, and documenting your references according to APA format is important. Establish how the community interacts with society and what sociological functions the community serves for its members and for the larger community. Consideration of key concepts from the course should be included. Concepts you may want to address in your paper include how the faith is world-affirming, world-rejecting, or world accommodating; how it is responding to secularism, multiculturalism, and modernity; the rise of fundamentalism etc.
You can write about Jehovah’s Witness, Catholic, or Seventh Day Adventist.
