Mrs. Smith gave the usual Hello class as always. 



Discussed creation stories: Genesis vs Q’ran

Genesis, just recapped some points 
Moment when they ate the forbidden fruit, don’t recall that whole part because we thought that both Adam and Eve ate the fruit not just Eve.
Interesting when they described god as a sole rather than a human being.
Were suppose to be made in God’s form, but Eve ate from the forbidden tree and that wasn’t the case.

Q’ran
 The same compared to the Genesis, with Adam and Eve are embarrassed to walk around with no clothes.
Allah created Earth in 7 days.
There are consequences for every action.

Discussed about the Guiding Question: 
“To what extent does a creator have responsibility for its creation? When does the creation assume responsibility for its own actions?”

Something to think about in terms of creators
GodàHumansàFreewill/Hope
SatanàSins (7 Deadly) àTemptation/Despair/Consequences

Read Part of the Divine Comedy, Cantos 1, 3, and the beginning of 5
Side Notes
Role of Guide?
Virgil represents reason and logic
Purpose of Cantos 1, set up where Dante is in the dark woods and where he is going next which is the Vestibule

HW: Keep working on LL Part 1
