Humanities Homework Help

I’m working on a anthropology discussion question and need a sample draft to help me study.

Objective/Goal:

Revisit the definition of religion to see how modern beliefs, such as alien abduction, may or may not fit in.

Instructions:

In this discussion, you’ll be asked to:

• Review the course materials on alien abductions(attached bellow)
• Think about the definition of religion and how a belief in aliens may or may not fit under this definition
• Write about cults and high demand religious groups, making sure your post reflects what you learned about this topic from the book and modules!
• Reply to at least two of your peers.

Initial Reply

post your answers to the questions below as your initial reply to this discussion.

You need to post:

1. Is a belief in aliens a religious phenomenon? Why or why not?
2. How is it similar to or different from more traditional religious beliefs?

Make sure your post reflects your understanding of this topic from your reading of the textbook and modules. If you don’t agree with the argument made in the course, explain why. If your answer depends on what the specific beliefs are about aliens (e.g., life exists elsewhere in the universe versus alien abduction), make sure to include that too.

Replies to Peers

After the initial reply, reply to at least two of your peers. In your replies, ask any questions you have about their perspective. Do you agree with them? Why or why not? Be sure to loop back to your own post and answer any questions you have been asked. I will also be posting feedback and questions for you!
