EngC 1012, section A64
Prof. Karen Steigman
definition paper thesis and audience
term: Quaker
audience: first-year students in Marantha Christian Fellowship at the University of Minnesota
Although Quaker religious practice is quite different from the religious practices of most protestant Christian sects, those practices which are unique to Quakerism, such as silent worship and the rejection of creeds and sacraments, reaffirm many of the beliefs that separate Quakerism and protestantism from Catholicism and other sects of Christianity.
Yeah, it's crap, I know. I didn't even mention anything about what those beliefs are. Basically, I'm planning on going off the idea that both Quakers and other protestant sects put the bible over doctrine, and people over clergy. Unfortunately, I submitted this two minutes late, so hopefully I won't lose any points.
Dad, what do you think? Is this total B.S.?
By the way, all this really makes me want to take Quakerism 101. I really don't know as much about Quakerism as I thought, or wish, I did.
I would also like to say that... I HAVE A NEW CHAIR!!! YAY IKEA!!! YAY NOT HAVING TO DRAG OUR ONE CHAIR BETWEEN THE COMPUTER AND WORK DESK ANYMORE!!!!
So, now the question is... Should I study or should I sleep?
[EDIT: Okay, you guys totally need to check out today's XKCD. I'ts so true. Sad thing is, I've done it with my mom's old 1960s World Book Encyclopedia, too.]
