A Century of Religious Evolution among Native Americans
[ send me this paper ]
A 7 page
paper discussing how the issue of religion among Native Americans has come full circle in the
past century. The federal government officially banned some tribes' most sacred religious rites -
the potlatch of the Cree was subversive because it redistributed wealth among members - forbade
the use of native languages and removed entire tribes from their ancestral lands. White
missionaries were certain that the "savages" had to be civilized before they could be evangelized,
and did not take the time to realize how similar native religion and Christianity were. Some
groups are returning to the traditional ways; others are blending tradition with Christianity; still
others persecute the Christians in their midst in retribution for the centuries of persecution at the
hands of Christians. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

A Comparison of the Religious Sentiments Found in Akhenaten’s “Hymn to the Sun” and “Psalm 104” of the Hebrew Bible
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 4 page paper comparing the religious sentiments found in the “Hymn to the Sun” and “Psalm 104”. The Egyptian pharaoh Akhenaten (c. 1370 BC) is believed to have greatly changed the religious worship of the Egyptians. In his hymn to the Sun god, “Hymn to the Sun” or “Hymn to Aten”, Akhenaten wrote of the worship of one God, not many, his creation of the universe, the world, darkness and light, the elements of nature and man’s place on earth. This hymn and its religious sentiment was said to have influenced the early Hebrew writings which can be seen in Psalm 104 in the Hebrew Bible. Moses, similar to Akhenaten, prohibited the worship of images by the Hebrews and instead concentrated on the praise of the one God, Yahweh. Psalm 104, using similar language and sentiment, also outlines the one God which created the universe, the world, darkness and light, all the natural elements and man’s place on earth.
