The God That Did Not Fail


In the introduction to this book, Robert Royal discusses how religion (of whatever kind) has come under severe criticism in the modern age.  What reasons does he give for the "contempt" with which the moderns and post-moderns tend to view religion?  State some of the reasons below, then list 5 things you want to find out, or learn about, in order to assess the extent to which (if at all) the criticisms are valid.

What in god's name was Prometheus about?



Write down your thoughts on the religious symbolism you saw in the movie.  No right or wrong answers, just be as open as you can and use some of the information from Chapter 1 of the textbook. You must also respond to at least two other comments (respectfully).  Then research some of the on-line articles about the movie to see if you get any more ideas.  Feel free to imbed the links to any helpful sites.
