After finishing the venn diagram assignment, I’ve become really interested in learning about religion and, not only how it’s influenced history, but how it’s motivated some of history’s major events. I thought it was interesting to see how connected all the historical groups were with religion in particular. There were a lot of zealous religious leaders who did a lot of weird and extreme things and I think that would be really fun to learn about. In addition to religion, I really want to read more primary sources. It doesn’t matter what they’re about but I’d like to see more personal accounts of history. I think it would be incredible to learn history this way because personal accounts are more authentic and, while still biased, remain more true than history textbooks. Lastly, cults. I’d really like to learn more about how they contributed to history. All in all, to generalize what I’d mainly enjoy learning more about, I’d say religion but I’m very excited to have a history class so whatever we learn about I’ll be excited for.

AuthorI have way too much time on my hands and I'm way too over analytical of everything. It makes for weird conspiracies supported by questionable evidence and unpopular opinions. Archives
