Instruction
After reading Chapter # 7 of the course textbook, compose an essay based on the following topics:
1. How can religion influence people’s perception of the environment? Explain using some examples.
2. Explain the use of fish and wine in Christianity as examples of the relationship between religion and economy. Explain using some examples from other religions.
Your answer should reflect knowledge of the topic and, most importantly, using your own words. Explain your answer for each question in NO less than 300 words and no more than 400 words. Note that essays that are less than 800 words in length will lose points. You must also separate each answer clearly using titles or numbers. The word count does not include your name, PID, date, title, prompt/question/s posed, Bibliography, etc. In fact, to reduce the Originality report (in Turnitin), you should avoid including the questions posed in your essay.
It is required to cite the course textbook in this and in all written assignments. Any source cited in the essay must be included in the text, in parenthesis at the end of the sentence using quotation marks if it is a direct quote, including the last name/s of the author/s, year of publication, and the page number (i.e., Domosh et al. 2013: 63). If you are using an external source writing this information in your own words, then you must cite at the end of the sentence, using parenthesis, the last name/s of the author/s and the year of publication (i.e., Neumann and Price 2013). All sources cited in your essay must also be included in a separate page on a Bibliography/Reference section at the end of your essay.

12-point font (Arial, Times New Roman, Garamond, or Book Antiqua);
