coexisting

I decided a good topic to start this blog with would be why I wanted to take the World Religions in the first place. I am a very curious person and I love to learn, especially about different cultures. I have always believed that you can't judge or put down anything that you aren't well informed about. Religion seems to me to be one of those topics that people often criticize harshly even when they are ignorant about it. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but they should base it on information rather than speculation. 
I chose this image, because I feel like it embodies my feelings. I first saw this as a bumper sticker. Later I found this image with the meanings of each symbol. I love the idea of various religions not necessarily agreeing with each other but understanding and living in harmony.

I also like to learn different culture. That's why I am here. (I am a exchange student from Japan.)
Now I compare American culture with Japanese one. It is so interesting!!! Religion is one of most interesting topics for me because it is quite different!!

I like that picture. I really want to know what each symbol means.
