tenjounoao_yume In a textbook for a new high school subject, “Public Affairs,” Teikoku Shoin has an accurate description of the categories of world religions and ethnic religions, and a religious scholar I hear that religious scholars recommend it to their acquaintances. ↓ “World Religions” In modern Europe, there has been a movement to compare and categorize the religions that have existed throughout the world since the beginning of mankind. …Christianity is… image

tenjounoao_yume Myself, I considered myself to be a religion with universality that spread throughout the world (world religion). Islam (Muslim) and Buddhism were also considered to fall under this category. On the other hand, religions that are practiced within a specific ethnic group or culture, such as Judaism, Shintoism, and Hinduism, were positioned as national religions. However, these classifications themselves are not the only way to understand the Christ-centered worldview of the

tenjounoao_yume, and there is criticism from other religions. Some people also argue that such a simple classification is meaningless, since even within the same religion, different sects may have different interpretations and ways of praying.

When I look at the author, I see Dr. Karibe’s name. I know he may not have authored this item directly, but the writing policy is considered by the author. image

tenjounoao_yume and decided to do so, so there seems to be something that has been carried through. I am reminded of the importance of a researcher’s perspective and viewpoint. I think it would be good to know more about the fact that it is no longer valid to compare and discuss “world religions” and “ethnic religions” separately. It would be perfect if we could know this in high school. Good job, Teikoku Shoin!

Bought.

nishio That’s a great public textbook from Teikoku Shoin. Everyone should read it and discuss it with others. image

nishio Is it possible to insist on “no hijab” by a rule that says not to wear religious motifs in public schools (French case) Is it possible to shoot down a plane that has been hijacked by terrorists? Is it possible to shoot down a plane (unconstitutional in Germany) Is a quota system to secure quotas for female legislators fair or reverse discrimination, difficult questions are bang on!

nishio There is a page discussing whether or not it is acceptable for a university to not refund the admission fee or tuition when you decline admission, and it is interesting to see the discussion with reference to consumer contract law and other laws. So the contract that is familiar to high school students as their own is the college admission fee?

nishio “Should the international community intervene in countries in civil war?” The case of Somalia, the case of Rwanda, what if Japan were a party? What would you think?

That’s a hard thing to say.

nishio “Should libraries be run by the private sector?” Should the consumption tax rate be raised?”

nishio Interesting section on “look at the job postings”, it says that the “where to look” column shows the retention rate and if it’s extremely bad, it might be a black company. w Very practical knowledge.

nishio “How to deal with the overseas relocation of domestic factories” The story of Sharp’s discontinuation of refrigerator production at its Yao plant in 2019, the story of Kadoma City, where Matsushita was located, where corporate tax revenues fell to 1/5th of what they were in the 1980s due to overseas relocation. The story of Kadoma City, where Matsushita was located, where corporate tax revenues fell to 1/5 of what they were in the 80s due to its overseas relocation. Even recently, the media has been slamming Toyota and talking about how they “don’t feel like working hard in Japan,” but knowing this kind of context will change the way you feel about it.
