Religion Question

You will submit a four (4) page research paper about a specific Western religious tradition. The Title Page and Bibliography/Works Cited does not count towards the four (4) pages. Your paper may focus on an important historical event (Muhammad’s Hijra to Mecca), a significant person (Wovoka of the Paiute), or a religious practice (the Christian practice/sacrament of Baptism). The essay is to be in size twelve (12) Times New Roman font with one (1) inch margins. The paper should be double-spaced. You are encouraged to use a common essay style (e.g., 5 Paragraph Essay). You are expected to utilize academic resources (peer-reviewed journal articles, scholarly books, videos, interviews, and primary sources, whatever they may be) to formally write this paper.  Here is a helpful website from Illinois University about what counts as an academic or scholarly resource: here.

(1) Using & citing at least six (6) academic resources [recommended two (2) primary source and four (4) secondary resources], (2) utilizing class materials and other academic resources to convincingly support you thesis statement. (3) composing an argument that has one, clear & concise thesis statement, (4) using correct American English grammar, syntax, and formatting (which means your paper should have no errors of this nature to receive the highest marks), and (5) the persuasiveness of your argument as a whole. Your essay must be four (4) full pages not including Works Cited/Bibliography and Title Page.
