I don’t know why someone ever thought human geography first
mod was a bright idea. I was not awake at all today, and it was super hard to
focus because I was freezing. I had goose bumps covering my arms and legs and
it felt like an icicle was growing on the tip of my nose! We started talking
about cultural groups. We discussed how language, ethnic groups, and religion
play a big role in it. Like some countries have multiple languages, but some
have only one. We discussed religion a lot. Religion is the main cause of war!
The five largest religions are Christians, Buddhists, Muslims, Judaism, and Hinduism.
Christianity, Judaism, and Muslims are very alike. Our main roots go back to
Abraham. Yet somehow it is those religions that have the most conflict with
each other. Each of these three religions believe the Holy Land (Jerusalem) belongs
to them. It hard to believe that religions based off of peace have the most
violence and war. Why can’t we just accept each other’s differences? Why does Jerusalem
have to “belong” to someone? Why can’t we share this sacred land that is none
for peace and not war? We shouldn’t let our differences come between us. We
should be united and live in peace. I know that sounds cliché because there is
always going to be a conflict, but we should at least try to stay sane for the
sake of religion.
