RELIGION SQ1 Question 1 Which is the best explanation to why radical Muslims commit acts of terrorism? a. These acts are both political and religious. They are political responses to the atrocities of Western governments towards Muslim countries and are also seen by those who commit them as expressions of faith.

The rise of the personal computer, the Internet, mobile devices, and social media precipitated the rise of religiosity. Question 3 Your friend who is a member of a new Christian church deeply believes that the Bible is the word of God and the only way to really understand God.

I no longer believe in the Bible so I will reject the offer politely. b. Accept the offer only if it is in line with my values. c. Accept the offer. I was raised a Christian anyway and it won't hurt to know more about the Christian tradition. Besides I don't need to convert myself.
