Hurston’s posthumous literary revival also had much to do with revisions to the literary canon then taking place in university English departments across the United States. In the March 1975 issue of Ms. magazine, Walker published her article about finding Hurston’s grave, titled “In Search of Zora Neale Hurston.” Literary scholar Robert Hemenway had already been working on the first Hurston biography, which came out in 1977. And in 1979, Walker highlighted 14 prose works in the first-ever Hurston anthology.

The obedience of faith demonstrates the power of Christ to transform lives, and therefore strengthens Christian witness. The great principles of God’s law are embodied in the Ten Commandments and exemplified in the life of Christ. What are Our Standards for Right and Wrong? While the basic right of freedom of worship is now generally recognized, such issues as those listed above often involve deeply-held beliefs and result in serious disagreements between governments and religious groups.

In a monotheistic religion, there is only one god to take on such responsibility, so it is logical that he or she becomes responsible for everything.

While in the desert seeking the promised land, the Israelites leaned into their sinful nature. You can still honor and respect your parents in words and in communication as well as heeding their advice while choosing another path. This means we should respect our father and our mother.

In Germany the territorial formula of cuius regio, eius religio applied-that is, in each petty state the population had to conform to the religion of the ruler. These channels aren’t as useful for recruiting Shia militants, who benefit from state support in Syria, Iraq and Iran and can openly advertise their calls for sectarian jihad.

The evidence of Champa’s influence over the disputed area in the South China Sea had brought attention to human rights violations and killings of ethnic minorities in Vietnam such as in the 2001 and 2004 uprisings, and lead to the issue of Cham autonomy being brought into the dispute, since the Vietnamese conquered the Hindu and Muslim Chams in an 1832 war and continuing to destroy evidence of Cham culture and artifacts left behind, plundering or building on top of Cham temples, building farms over them, banning Cham religious practices, and omitting references to the destroyed Cham capital of Song Luy in the 1832 invasion in history books and tourist guides.
