This is a class project for HUM422 Christianity and America. The presentation details an analogy for the relationship between Christianity and America.
The document compares traditional American, contemporary American, and traditional Chinese family values. Traditional American values opposed pre-marital sex, homosexuality, feminism, and abortion, and supported abstinence and the father as head of household. Contemporary American values support non-traditional families, abortion, sex education, and the separation of church and state. Traditional Chinese values placed the father as head and women in domestic roles, only allowed men to inherit property, and sometimes favored sons over daughters.

The document discusses how Columbus, Ohio has become a midwestern hub for the LGBTQ community. It notes that the gay population first began revitalizing in neighborhoods like German Village and has since spread throughout the city. Columbus celebrates pride events like the Pride Festival and Parade as well as other festivals that embrace diversity and support LGBTQ businesses. The city works to promote progressive values of inclusiveness.
This document summarizes arguments for and against gay parenting. It notes that as many as 13 million children currently live with a gay or lesbian parent. Research suggests that children of gay parents differ only minimally from those of heterosexual parents and may be more tolerant. However, some argue that children are better off with married, heterosexual parents and risk exposure to a "homosexual lifestyle." The document acknowledges methodological flaws in some studies and calls for more longitudinal research on diverse family arrangements and the support networks around them.
This document summarizes the challenges facing homeschooling families in Colorado, including increased government overreach and promotion of leftist ideologies in schools. It discusses the work of CHEC (Christian Home Educators of Colorado) to support homeschooling families through providing resources, events, advocacy and outreach. CHEC's goal is to motivate families to disciple their children and provide homeschooling assistance so families can homeschool with confidence despite challenges. The document requests support for CHEC's expanded efforts.

The document discusses various topics related to marriage and family, including:
- Characteristics of nuclear and extended families
- Types of marriage such as monogamy, polygamy, polygyny, and polyandry
- The social construction of marriage and family and how patterns are changing
- Theoretical perspectives on family from functionalism, conflict theory, and symbolic interactionism
This document discusses parenting philosophies and the state of families today. It notes that while parents have good intentions, their approaches are often not enough to guarantee success or ensure children become who God intends. Parenting styles discussed include over-controlling parents who attempt to dictate every aspect of children's lives, and permissive parents with little structure. Both can harm children. The document advocates for parenting based on biblical principles with a foundation of love, in order to raise children who become vital members of society representing Christ's love.
Gay marriage and the rights of LGBTQ individuals have been a long struggle. The document discusses the history and definitions related to being gay as well as perspectives on gay marriage around the world. While some cultures are less accepting, many places in Europe, America and Australia have become more supportive with some countries legally recognizing gay marriage and providing protections. However, lack of acceptance and discrimination can negatively impact the mental and physical health of gay individuals. There is also debate around gay couples adopting children, though research suggests children of gay parents develop normally.
Cross Curtural Understanding : family valuesSila Chaniago
This document discusses family values in American culture. It notes that American families traditionally value independence and individualism. Children are often given their own rooms from a young age and are taught responsibility. Many young adults leave home between 18-21 to begin independent lives, and parents do not typically arrange marriages. Elderly family members may be supported by social programs instead of family. While nuclear families are common, some extended families remain close-knit through shared religious or ethnic backgrounds.
Same-sex Marriage Lecture 6: In marriage redefined countries we see the decli...FamilyMan2
Redefining marriage brings about social change. A small part of this change is positive, but it also brings about a lot of negative social outcomes too. This lecture looks at how religions automatically go into decline in countries that redefine marriage. In their place, the state sets about redefining right and wrong based on the changing views of the political class. Since these new definitions are often at odds with what people know to be right or wrong, the only way for the state to keep these new values in place is through fear. Society is left without the timeless principles that are found within most religions - and totalitarianism creeps in.
This document discusses single-parent families, remarried families, and stepfamilies. It describes the characteristics of these family types and challenges they may face. Single-parent families headed by mothers are more likely to live in poverty than other family structures. Remarriages have a higher instability rate than first marriages due to blending families and relationships. Stepfamilies face difficulties determining roles and disciplinary boundaries between stepparents and stepchildren. The document provides various perspectives on how different family theories view these non-traditional family structures.
Here are the key points about my family:
- Classification: Nuclear family (parents and siblings)
- Organization: Democratic, shared decision-making
- Origin of descendancy: Bilateral, from both parents' families
- Location of residence: Neolocal, living separately from extended family
- Degree of authority: Equalitarian, shared between parents

The document summarizes the concept of "Moralistic Therapeutic Deism" which describes the spiritual views adopted by many American teenagers according to a 2005 study. The study found that teenagers generally believe that: 1) God exists and created the world; 2) God wants people to be good, nice, and fair; 3) The goal in life is to be happy; 4) God is not actively involved in one's life except when needed to solve a problem; and 5) Good people go to heaven when they die. The document argues that these views reflect the values and examples shown to teenagers by adults through social media and other means, rather than confusion on the part of youth about spirituality. It maintains that parents have

For each topic, it provides details on definitions, functions, importance and religious views related to families and relationships on a global scale.
Cross Culture Understanding (CCU) Family : Types and Traditions in AmericaAyu Retno Aditya
This document discusses different types of families and traditions in the United States. It covers topics such as newborns typically getting their own rooms, over 50% of young adults aged 18-24 living with their parents, senior citizens often living alone or socializing at centers, the importance of both nuclear and extended families, traditional gender roles with husbands working and wives raising children, high remarriage rates for divorced couples, and the diversity of modern families beyond just married couples with children.
Christian In A Secular America, Sept. 13mrjlbillett
This document discusses the separation of church and state in America. It provides an overview of key Supreme Court cases since 1947 that have interpreted and applied the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment. These rulings have restricted religious expression in public life and schools. The document argues that this has gone beyond the original intent of the Founding Fathers. It encourages Christians to remain politically engaged but to have their priorities focused on advancing the gospel, as their true citizenship is in heaven.
This document discusses concepts related to personhood, family, and society. It defines key terms like biological sex, gender identity, and sexual orientation. It describes different types of families like nuclear, extended, single-parent, etc. It defines society and discusses both positive and negative relations between individuals and society, giving examples like racism, xenophobia, and sexism. The goal of education for citizenship is described as providing knowledge and skills to play an active role in society as informed and responsible citizens.
This document discusses the issue of prayer in public schools. It notes that while prayer is allowed and protected as free speech, requiring prayer such as with Christian prayers each day could make some students who do not follow Christianity feel forced into practicing a religion they do not follow. The document reviews several court rulings around prayer in schools from the 1940s to today and examines the debate around the place of religious expression and prayer in public schools.
This document discusses the value and dignity of human persons as created in God's image. It notes that each person is unique based on their physical characteristics and life experiences. Each person has inherent rights and dignity that can be undermined by outside forces or internal struggles. However, people can promote their own and others' dignity by developing their talents, making their own decisions, caring for creation, loving God and others, and working for justice and human rights. The document encourages students to reflect on how they can uphold their own and others' dignity, especially those facing hardships.
The document discusses different types of families. It begins by defining the family as the most basic social group, usually consisting of parents and children. It then examines definitions of the family from various scholars. Key characteristics of families mentioned include mating relationships, marriage, shared living arrangements, and economic cooperation. The functions of families are categorized as essential (satisfying sexual needs, childbearing and rearing) and non-essential (economic, religious, educational roles). The document also describes types of families based on authority structure, residence patterns, marriage, and ancestry. Joint families are defined as multi-generational families that share property and live together. Nuclear and blended families are also briefly outlined.
This document compares family values between Indonesian and American families in several areas:
Child raising - In America, children may have their own rooms from birth and learn responsibility early, while in Indonesia babies sleep with parents.
Young adulthood - Americans are encouraged to leave home in their late teens/early 20s, while Indonesian young adults typically don't.
Elderly - The document doesn't provide details on treatment of the elderly.
Nuclear vs extended family - American families typically live independently as nuclear units, while Indonesian families maintain closer ties to extended family.
Gender roles - Traditionally the man provided financially and the woman cared for home/children, but these are becoming less fixed

Graphene was first isolated in 2004 and its potential applications were recognized early, leading to the 2010 Nobel Prize in Physics being awarded to its discoverers. While graphene has excellent thermal and mechanical properties and allows for high electron mobility, widespread commercial applications are still lacking. Large investments have been made in graphene research totaling over $2.4 billion but manufacturing costs remain high due to the energy-intensive production processes needed. While some graphene phones and touchscreens have begun limited production, traditional materials remain cheaper to use. Graphene's future prospects depend on reducing production costs and developing applications that leverage its unique properties and take advantage of its high frequencies for applications like transistors.

This document discusses family values and structures in different cultures and political contexts. It begins by defining family values as the concept that nuclear families are the basic cultural units. It then examines the concept of family values in Australian politics, British politics, Chinese Confucianism, and U.S. politics. Republican and Democratic party stances on family-related issues in the U.S. are also contrasted. The document goes on to discuss child raising, the roles and independence of young adults and the elderly, as well as nuclear and extended family structures. It concludes by noting both stability and changes in family roles and structures over time.

THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS
OVERVIEW – A COMPLEX ISSUE
The issue of the proper role of religion in the public schools continues to be the subject of great
controversy. School officials, parents and students -- as well as lawyers and judges -- wrestle with
these questions every day. However, clear standards and guidance are elusive. This handbook will
help provide a roadmap through this terrain.
It is important to bear in mind that this issue is extremely complex. Decision makers must address
many competing demands, invariably looking to balance the constitutional mandates of separation
of church and state and the right to freely exercise religion, as well as freedom of speech. They
must include in their thinking the needs and rights of both the religious and the non-religious.
Furthermore, decision makers must strive towards a vision of a pluralistic America that is open
and welcoming to all groups, including religious minorities.
This subject matter area, while complex, does not have to be divisive. School districts should set
forth clear policies regarding religion in the public schools that satisfy both the letter and the
spirit of the First Amendment. Parents should become involved in the process of discussing these
policies with educators, and approach difficulties with an understanding that mistakes and
misinformation, not malice, underlie a great many of the problems which typically arise in this
area.
Addressing these concerns with civility does not mean that those involved should understate the
importance of these issues, nor should they shy away from insisting that their concerns are heard
and addressed. Rather, all of us should recognize that although we may define it differently, our
common goal is to ensure that the vision of religious liberty upon which this nation was founded is
preserved. Few Americans would disagree that our individual religious freedom is extremely
precious and that no one should be subjected to inappropriate religious coercion.
The Anti-Defamation League has been fighting anti-Semitism, racism and bigotry since 1913. To
that end, we have been fighting for the religious liberty rights of all Americans – whether in the
minority or majority - to practice their religions freely and without government interference. As a
result, we have developed an expertise in this area. We encourage you to reach out to your local
Anti-Defamation League Regional Office any time you think we can be of assistance.

This document discusses family values and structures in American society. It describes the stages of child development from independence as young adults leave home between 18 to 21 years old. It also contrasts how the elderly are viewed, with American culture prioritizing youth over age. Nuclear families are more common in the US, while extended families including grandparents and other relatives are more prevalent in other cultures. American families have become more diverse and changing due to economic and social factors, though traditional views of marriage and family remain important to some.
This document discusses Christian, Muslim, and secular attitudes towards marriage, family life, divorce, contraception, and homosexuality. It provides an overview of changing social trends in the UK towards these topics. It also outlines different theological perspectives within and between religions on issues like pre-marital sex, adultery, and same-sex relationships. Key terms are defined and sample biblical and Quranic passages are referenced to illustrate traditional religious stances.
The US education system generally supports traditional family values through abstinence-only sex education curriculum and ignoring non-heterosexual identities. However, higher education can subvert traditional values by providing freedom for students to explore their identity away from home. One school district tried to change this by introducing lessons on sexual orientation and homosexuality, but sex education still primarily focuses on abstinence and heteronormative relationships.

Millennials are seeking meaning and purpose beyond what society offers. They embrace moral relativism and are overwhelmed by stress. While highly connected online, many feel lonely. A Christian worldview providing absolute truth and community is just what they need. However, few millennials possess a biblical worldview. Christian schools aiming to develop wise, courageous leaders grounded in Scripture can help fill this need and reverse declining spiritual activity among youth.

Homeschooling has increased 41% in the UK over the past 4 years. Parents choose homeschooling for reasons like adapting the curriculum to each child's needs, allowing for better academic and family relationships, and providing a safer learning environment. Interesting facts about homeschooling include that homeschool students score above average on achievement and college admission tests, and universities increasingly recruit them. Homeschooling has become more popular and accepted since the 1960s-70s, though laws regulating it still vary by location.

The document discusses how the author's identity and life outcomes were shaped by social constructs like white privilege, socioeconomic status, education, culture, and race. The author explains how growing up in a white, middle-class, Dutch Christian community in Michigan provided privileges like safety, access to private education, and upward mobility that they may not have experienced otherwise. While this background conflicted with their racial identity as an Asian adoptee, it demonstrated how social institutions can greatly influence an individual's beliefs, choices and development.
The document discusses research on the roles of gender and children in Mexican immigrant households settling in the United States. It summarizes findings from interviews that girls generally took on more responsibilities than boys in helping families adjust to new systems like schools, finances, employment, healthcare and legal/political matters. Children served as tutors, advocates and surrogate parents. The dominant American family ideology can shape expectations and experiences of Asian immigrant children by providing a contrasting standard of a "normal" family.

Family diversity (AS Sociology Family and Households) Mehek Iqbal
This document discusses different types of modern families. It begins by defining a family and household. It then describes nuclear families, which consist of parents and children living together, as the most popular traditional family type. However, it notes the "cereal packet family" image is a myth as family diversity has increased. Other family types discussed include cohabitating couples, reconstituted families with children from previous relationships, beanpole families across generations, same-sex families, single-person households, and lone parent families. It attributes the rise in family diversity to factors like greater gender equality, individualization, and changing social attitudes.
- Among developed countries, the United States is one of the most religious, with religion playing a prominent role in American culture and politics since early colonial days when settlers came seeking religious freedom.
- The U.S. Constitution guarantees freedom of religion, and as a result the country is highly religiously diverse with hundreds of denominations of Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism and other faiths represented.
- While most Americans identify with a religion, rates of regular religious service attendance and belief in God are lower than in other developed nations, reflecting an American culture that also emphasizes personal freedom and secularism.

Why Psychological Safety Matters for Software Teams - ACE 2024 - Ben Linders.pdfBen Linders
Psychological safety in teams is important; team members must feel safe and able to communicate and collaborate effectively to deliver value. It’s also necessary to build long-lasting teams since things will happen and relationships will be strained.
But, how safe is a team? How can we determine if there are any factors that make the team unsafe or have an impact on the team’s culture?
In this mini-workshop, we’ll play games for psychological safety and team culture utilizing a deck of coaching cards, The Psychological Safety Cards. We will learn how to use gamification to gain a better understanding of what’s going on in teams. Individuals share what they have learned from working in teams, what has impacted the team’s safety and culture, and what has led to positive change.
Different game formats will be played in groups in parallel. Examples are an ice-breaker to get people talking about psychological safety, a constellation where people take positions about aspects of psychological safety in their team or organization, and collaborative card games where people work together to create an environment that fosters psychological safety.

Carrer goals.pptx and their importance in real lifeartemacademy2
Career goals serve as a roadmap for individuals, guiding them toward achieving long-term professional aspirations and personal fulfillment. Establishing clear career goals enables professionals to focus their efforts on developing specific skills, gaining relevant experience, and making strategic decisions that align with their desired career trajectory. By setting both short-term and long-term objectives, individuals can systematically track their progress, make necessary adjustments, and stay motivated. Short-term goals often include acquiring new qualifications, mastering particular competencies, or securing a specific role, while long-term goals might encompass reaching executive positions, becoming industry experts, or launching entrepreneurial ventures.
Moreover, having well-defined career goals fosters a sense of purpose and direction, enhancing job satisfaction and overall productivity. It encourages continuous learning and adaptation, as professionals remain attuned to industry trends and evolving job market demands. Career goals also facilitate better time management and resource allocation, as individuals prioritize tasks and opportunities that advance their professional growth. In addition, articulating career goals can aid in networking and mentorship, as it allows individuals to communicate their aspirations clearly to potential mentors, colleagues, and employers, thereby opening doors to valuable guidance and support. Ultimately, career goals are integral to personal and professional development, driving individuals toward sustained success and fulfillment in their chosen fields.

1.) Introduction
Our Movement is not new; it is the same as it was for Freedom, Justice, and Equality since we were labeled as slaves. However, this movement at its core must entail economics.
2.) Historical Context
This is the same movement because none of the previous movements, such as boycotts, were ever completed. For some, maybe, but for the most part, it’s just a place to keep your stable until you’re ready to assimilate them into your system. The rest of the crabs are left in the world’s worst parts, begging for scraps.
3.) Economic Empowerment
Our Movement aims to show that it is indeed possible for the less fortunate to establish their economic system. Everyone else – Caucasian, Asian, Mexican, Israeli, Jews, etc. – has their systems, and they all set up and usurp money from the less fortunate. So, the less fortunate buy from every one of them, yet none of them buy from the less fortunate. Moreover, the less fortunate really don’t have anything to sell.
4.) Collaboration with Organizations
Our Movement will demonstrate how organizations such as the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, National Urban League, Black Lives Matter, and others can assist in creating a much more indestructible Black Wall Street.
5.) Vision for the Future
Our Movement will not settle for less than those who came before us and stopped before the rights were equal. The economy, jobs, healthcare, education, housing, incarceration – everything is unfair, and what isn’t is rigged for the less fortunate to fail, as evidenced in society.
6.) Call to Action
Our movement has started and implemented everything needed for the advancement of the economic system. There are positions for only those who understand the importance of this movement, as failure to address it will continue the degradation of the people deemed less fortunate.
No, this isn’t Noah’s Ark, nor am I a Prophet. I’m just a man who wrote a couple of books, created a magnificent website: http://www.thearkproject.llc, and who truly hopes to try and initiate a truly sustainable economic system for deprived people. We may not all have the same beliefs, but if our methods are tried, tested, and proven, we can come together and help others. My website: http://www.thearkproject.llc is very informative and considerably controversial. Please check it out, and if you are afraid, leave immediately; it’s no place for cowards. The last Prophet said: “Whoever among you sees an evil action, then let him change it with his hand [by taking action]; if he cannot, then with his tongue [by speaking out]; and if he cannot, then, with his heart – and that is the weakest of faith.” [Sahih Muslim] If we all, or even some of us, did this, there would be significant change. We are able to witness it on small and grand scales, for example, from climate control to business partnerships. I encourage, invite, and challenge you all to support me by visiting my website.
1. 14 WAYS THAT THE
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN
CHRISTIANITY AND AMERICA
IS LIKE A FAMILY CIRCUSBy Kim Galloway
2. INTRODUCTION
• Being in a family is an adventure that is filled with complicated emotions and strong
ties that bind us together, just like the sometimes-loving, sometimes -contentious
relationship between Christianity and America
3. 1
• Families provide a safe home that is a nurturing place to grow.
• Children find security and protection within the home.
• In the relationship between Christianity and America:
• In America, Christianity was given a safe place to develop new ideas far removed
from the interference of meddling relatives Monarchy and State-Church.
• The freedom to be Christian is secured and protected.
4. 2
• Parents teach responsibility.
• As children grow and learn they are given more freedom and responsibility.
• In the relationship between Christianity and America:
• America has given freedom to religion, and has asked that it be exercised with
responsibility.
• Even though Christianity is free to share the Gospel, it is not free to spread hate,
bigotry, or pass judgement on others.
• Christianity is still growing and learning to share the truth in love.
5. 3
• Families pass on morals and values
• Even though each family has their own code of conduct, core values are passed
down through family interaction.
• In the relationship between Christianity and America:
• In the past America had implemented a code of conduct based on values that very
closely reflected Christian morals.
• These laws could only be aimed at the outward appearance and superficial conduct
of the individual and the society.
6. 4
• Families have rules, but make compromises, too.
• When children are small, rules are for teaching and protecting. As children grow
there can be more compromise as they show maturity in decision making.
• In the relationship between Christianity and America:
• Even though Christians have some rules that are not negotiable, traditions such as
clothing styles and the roles of men and women have adapted to mature along with
the culture of America.
• America has used some Christian values and the Christian model of the family to
make laws and guide society.
7. 5
• Families go through growing pains as children gain independence.
• In the relationship between Christianity and America:
• There has been plenty of teenage rebellion. Like a teenager trying to find their
own voice, America has struck out on it’s own to try new and exciting things.
• New experiences have been met with varying consequences, but hopefully wisdom
is gained through both failures and successes.
8. 6
• Raising a family takes commitment
• Parents can not run away at the first difficult situation.
• In the relationship between Christianity and America:
• The relationship between Christianity and America has sometimes been a
contentious one.
• America has been committed to allowing Christians to practice their religion,
although some misguided individuals have not used this freedom wisely.
• Christianity has been committed to making American society better through charity
work and community service, and trying to raise responsible citizens.
9. 7
• As family members grow up, the family may also grows in size.
• Young adults bring outsiders into the family and it becomes more diverse.
• In the relationship between Christianity and America:
• The nation that considered itself Christian has opened it’s home to many cultures
and religions.
• Even though there have been times of distrust and strife, there has been added
diversity in the family and broadening of horizons.
10. 8
• Relationships in a family can be contentious.
• Even though members disagree, the underlying ties are still binding.
• In the relationship between Christianity and America:
• America has attempted to remove all mention of religion from public life; teaching
only the theory of evolution in public schools, for example, even though the theory
of intelligent design has equal merit in education.
• Christianity has attempted to impose it’s beliefs on society; the displaying of the Ten
Commandments in public spaces, for example, even though they are a religious
display.
11. 9
• Family relationships can be overprotective and controlling.
• When a child is overprotected and controlled they may become even more defiant.
• Patience on the parent’s part, and a change in the child’s heart is required.
• In the relationship between Christianity and America:
• When Christianity has tried to control moral behavior through legislation it has not
been successful.
• True change in moral behavior comes from each individual changing their heart and
mind, and eventually, their behavior.
12. 10
• Family relationships can be full of favoritism.
• Even though parents try to be fair and love their children equally, favoritism can still
be shown.
• In the relationship between Christianity and America:
• Christianity has always enjoyed the status of the favorite child.
• Christianity’s favored position has been recently challenged.
• It is okay to be the most popular child, but the other siblings would rather not see
reminders of it in public spaces and in public policy.
13. 11
• Families relationships can be love-hate relationships.
• As much as members love each other, there are things that drive them crazy!
• In the relationship between Christianity and America:
• Christianity loves the freedom that America affords religion, yet hates that America
is a diverse nation, full of many religions.
• America loves that Christian values help individuals to be good citizens, yet hates
that Christianity expects individuals to live up to those values.
14. 12
• Families are places in which individuals can learn about themselves.
• Both parents and children learn about their personal strengths and weaknesses, and
grow as they strive to be the best versions of themselves.
• In the relationship between Christianity and America:
• Both Christianity and America believe that they always choose the moral high
ground, yet both have fallen short of their ideals.
• As Christians and Americans, individuals can choose to learn to be their best
representations of both God and Country.
15. • Family relationships are always evolving.
• As family members go through different stages of life, relationship dynamics change.
• In the relationship between Christianity and America:
• Christianity and America have always lived in a mutually beneficial relationship, but that
relationship has gone through many changes.
• America has enjoyed the benefits of the intertwining of Christianity and patriotism, although
Christianity has been dismayed by some of the dishonorable things that have been done in
the name of America recently.
• Christianity has always enjoyed the religious freedom offered in America, but is now
struggling with the limits being placed upon it by law, limits that have always been imposed
upon other religions by society, if not by law.
13
16. 14
• Families are places where individuals grow and learn in order to reach their full
potential.
• Parents observe their children’s strengths and encourage them to pursue
opportunities to be their best.
• In the relationship between Christianity and America:
• American education is open to everyone, regardless of their religious beliefs, to help
them to achieve their dreams.
• America could improve at offering truly equal opportunities to everyone.
17. 15
Although the relationship between Christianity and America has been at times
amiable, and at times antagonistic, both have admired the best traits of the other.
Like members in a family they have been angry and said things that they later
regretted; they have even taken each other to court over their disagreements.
Even though Christianity and America disagree on many things, they have forgiven
each others’ shortcomings, knowing that even though their methods may differ, they
are motivated by a desire to improve the lives of the members of the family.
