Image 5: Crucifix
A sacred symbol in Catholicism is a
crucifix, the crucifix is typically located on
the altar of a catholic church where the Eucharist is served. It represents atonement and sacrifice. On the crucifix there is the body of Christ as Jesus was nailed to the cross. his body and crucifixion is said to suck sin out of this world.
Our religion does not define us.
we are who we are.
Image 2: Catholic church
As Catholics we marry our significant other
in a Catholic church in front of our family.
In order for us to be married we must first ask the priest of the chosen parish if he wouldn't mind doing the honors of marrying two people. Not only do you marry each other but you get married to the church as well.
In the Catholic Religion we believe that God
created this Earth in 6 days on the 7th day He rested: hence the Sabbaths Day
Image 4: Holy Bible
Proverbs 16:9. "In his mind a man
plans his course, but the lord directs his steps." This sacred text means that we have control over what we can do in our lives. But God is always there to help guide us in the right direction, away from evil.
Image 3: Birth of Jesus
Christmas is one of the most commonly known festivals in the world. Although it was started by Roman Catholics to commemorate the birth of Jesus Christ, it is now more known for spending time with family and receiving gifts from one another
In the Buddhist religion there is no count
of a creation story nor do they theorize how
we came to be on this world.
