research paper

The research paper will be a 2000-word essay about a world religion.

 This research paper on a world religion will consider the similarities between Christianity and another world religion such as Hinduism, Buddhism or Islam. It will seek to answer the question of whether the similarities are significant or not.  The essay will include a biography of the person who started the religion, an overview of their teachings, how those teachings are similar to and different from Christianity, and an explanation of the significance of those differences and similarities.

Your essay should contain at least one resource per page. Please make sure you cite whatever ideas you get from someone else. Online resources are allowed but should be balanced with hard copy sources.  This means that if you have three sources that are online sources, you should have at least three that are from actual books.
