Defining the Sacred: choose 2 sacred works that we have read, 1 from the two Abrahamic faiths (Islam and Christianity) and 1 from the Eastern religions (Hinduism, Buddhism, and Confucianism) and make an argument about what similarities these excerpts have, and what those similarities can tell us about what it means for any work to be “sacred.”
