The class of this day, Monday, marked the introduction of our study on the world religion known as Judaism. In continuation of our past viewings for the other religions, Ms. Egan arranged for us to watch the Judaism episode of the CPD religions video series. Among the many aspects of Jewish life brought up, the three classes of Orthodox, Conservative, and Reform Jews (becoming more liberal sequentially from left to right) were focused on. In addition, the many sacredities and customs of the Jewish people in the home, temple, as well as in daily life, were explained.
In the class's beginning, Ms. Egan gave a few words on the recent mandate issued by the federal government which some believe to hamper the religious freedom of American citizens.
At class's end, the presentation preliminary work was handed back, graded.
