Kkk3
The Ku Klux Klan is a racist organization founded in 1866 that uses terrorism such as murder, lynching, arson and bombing to promote their ideology of hate against African Americans, Catholics, Jews, immigrants and other minority groups. They originated among Confederate soldiers after the Civil War and grew to over 4.5 million members in the 1920s, particularly in Indiana and Iowa. Today the KKK continues to be led by a Grand Wizard and promotes white supremacy through intimidation and violence.
Religious diversity in America part 1 & 2 2 - 2016
These are the two parts of the lecture on religion. It covers the topics of religious freedom and religious diversityin America : Protestantism and catholicism, as well as the non christian faiths with a specific focus on Judaism and Islam.
Hidden Jewish Communities: Bnei Anusim
This document discusses the history of Spanish and Portuguese Jews known as B'nei Anusim or "secret Jews" who were forcibly converted to Catholicism during the Spanish Inquisition but continued practicing Judaism in secret. It describes how some of these crypto-Jews emigrated to places like Mexico and the American Southwest where they established communities and maintained some Jewish traditions secretly for centuries. Recent DNA studies have found widespread evidence of Sephardic Jewish ancestry among Latin Americans. The discovery of these hidden Jewish communities has implications for how Jewish identity is defined today and for Messianic Jewish communities.
Religion in the US
Religion has profoundly shaped American culture since colonial times. Several colonies were established by religious groups seeking freedom to practice their faith, including the Puritans in Massachusetts, Quakers in Pennsylvania, and Catholics in Maryland. While Christianity remains the majority religion, its percentage is declining as more Americans identify as unaffiliated. Other factors driving changes in religious identification include generational replacement and increasing disaffiliation among older generations.
Judaism (1)
Judaism is associated with the Jewish people, who can be described as both an ethnic or religious group. Throughout Jewish literature, the Jewish people are referred to as "the Children of Israel," implying a shared lineage and descent from the patriarch Jacob, also known as Israel. As a nation, Israel refers to those who acknowledge and obey the one God through the Torah and teachings of the patriarchs and prophets like Moses. Historically, Jews have been a nomadic people, but in the 20th century a state was founded in what is considered the ancestral homeland after the Holocaust.
KKK
The Ku Klux Klan is a racist organization founded in 1866 that commits acts of terrorism like murder, lynching, arson and bombing against African Americans, Catholics, Jews, Native Americans, Asian Americans and immigrants. They aim to destroy the reputations of other cultures and religions to create a "perfect race." The KKK was formed by six Confederate officers in Tennessee after the Civil War to target those who disagreed with their beliefs.

The Power of Society
Can a person’s religious affiliation (or lack of it) give us any clues about that person’s attitudes on family life?
In a recent survey of U.S adults (a survey that was limited to white people, to control for race), 90 percent of those who described themselves as evangelical Protestants also said they had “old-fashioned” values about family and marriage. The share of self-described Catholics or mainline Protestants who said the same was lower.And less than half of those who claimed to have no religious affiliation shared these traditional values.Clearly, people’s values—whether “old-fashioned” or progressive—are not just a matter of personal choice; they also reflect people’s social background, including their religious affiliation.

2011 AP US PP - Religious Movements 1800 - 1850
The Second Great Awakening was a religious revival movement in the United States from 1800-1850. It began as a reaction against liberalism and spread rapidly across the country through camp meetings and preachers like Peter Cartwright and Charles Finney. Membership increased most in Baptist and Methodist churches, which stressed personal conversion and emotionalism. The revival encouraged evangelicalism and resulted in reforms like prison reform and the abolition movement. It also contributed to the growth of new denominations and the split between northern and southern churches, especially over the issue of slavery.
Illuminati, rothschild family
This document discusses the history and conspiracy theories surrounding secret societies like the Illuminati, Freemasonry, and Skull and Bones.

Lecture 6 Religion In America
Religion has always played an important role in American history and culture. The majority of early European settlers were Protestant Christians from England, and Protestant values had a strong influence on the development of American society. While the US has separation of church and state, religion remains intertwined with politics. Today, around 70% of Americans identify as Christian, with the largest denominations being Protestant (50%) and Catholic (24%).

The document discusses the founding and history of the early American colonies. It explains that the Puritans, who wanted to reform the Church of England but found it not pure enough, founded the Massachusetts Bay colony in 1630 under John Winthrop. The Puritans established a religiously intolerant community but valued self-government, education, and the separation of church and state. However, dissenters like Roger Williams and Anne Hutchinson advocated for even greater religious freedom and were expelled from Massachusetts. Thomas Hooker also disagreed with Puritan leaders and founded the colony of Connecticut in 1636.

It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375
