Written Assignment for MIL 204

Judaism and Islam

Religion is arguably the single, most important impediment to achieving peace in the Middle East. The conflict between Islam and Judaism is often viewed as an irreconcilable clash of religious doctrines. Is this really the case? 

For this essay, you are required to compare and contrast these two religions and, based upon your research, offer your opinion as to the similarities and differences that exist between them. Are they inherently conflictory, or is there a commonality between the two that is frequently overlooked? Can these religions coexist, or are they destined for perpetual conflict?   

In your essay, you will need to address a minimum of three similarities and three differences between these two religions.  You then will need to draw and support your conclusion as to the nature of the relationship between them. 

The paper must be at least three pages in length (excluding the title and reference pages) and formatted according to APA style. You must use at least one scholarly source, which can be found in the Ashford Online Library, and the textbook to support your points. Cite your sources within the text of your paper and on the reference page.
