MY VOCAB PRACTICE:

  1. I was surprised to hear that John my atheist half brother, celebrated Christmas this year.
  2. In several villages across Africa, it's not an unusual sight to see an entire street filled with pantheon.
  3. Matthew's intention is to study theology in college but his parents are not in support.

Good work!

I guess even atheists can believe in Santa Claus. ☺

Yeah right! I guess we all love Santa's gifts... Ho Ho Ho!
Cheers!

"MY VOCAB PRACTICE."

  1. Atheist.
    A lot of people don't realize there is a difference between an atheist and an agnostic.

  2. Pantheon.
    I consider Walter Cronkite to be among the pantheon of television anchors and old school news reporters.

  3. Theology.
    My cousin wanted to study theology before she went into the convent.

Good work!

Walter Cronkite! That's when news was news, and relevant.

Thanks! Yes, he was "The Most Trusted Man In America". Reported from Vietnam, too. Now news is all endless analysis of one piece of a bit of news and talked about each hour.

Indeed. Moreover, much of the news is slanted, biased, censored, and propagandized. In a word, bullshit.

Yes, there are many variations of Bullshit:

Bull
Bulldungy
Bullpucky
Horseshit
BS
......you get the idea. LOL

Agreed BS is just another word for Propaganda.

MY VOCAB PRACTICE:

  1. The death of his child shook his faith and he started to become an atheist.

  2. The Pantheon in Rome is an ancient Roman building dedicated to all the Roman gods, who each have a statue in it dedicated to them.

  3. Iran is a theocracy that is organised around Islamic theology.

Good work!

MY VOCAB PRACTICE:

  1. Atheist:
    To be an atheist is to deny that you are part of the greater whole.

  2. Pantheon:
    I've heard that the pantheon of gods was created when they mistook the seventy-two different names for the one God as being separate entities.

  3. Theology:
    Most people who study theology never think to study themselves.

Good work! And GOOD POINTS.

MY VOCAB PRACTICE:

  1. Richard Dawkins is an atheist who likes trolling religious people on twitter.

  2. The Greeks had a vast pantheon of gods who were in charge of all aspects of life.

  3. In order to become a priest, you need a degree in theology.

Good work!

MY VOCAB PRACTICE:

  1. It was very dangerous to be an atheist in the 16th century.

  2. Hindus are the only modern people who believe in a pantheon of gods.

  3. In medieval times, experts in theology spent a lot of time debating how many angels could dance on the point of a pin.

Good work!

Maybe in the near future, theologians might be able to determine how many angels can dance on 1-gigabyte of data.

MY VOCAB PRACTICE:

  1. Atheist may not agree, but many believers believe that even atheist is created by God.

  2. The outer view of cathedral was constructed lined with sculptured pantheon that goes all around it.

  3. She studied and received her master’s degree in Christian theology.

Good work!

MY VOCAB PRACTICE

Atheist: They have a marked characteristic that has led us to our current society, asking for everything (how, when, why, why, and if not?)

Pantheon:
place destined for resting the remains of people stories of a country

Theology: The study of what is believed, the belief in what we yearn for, we miss what we think we need

I do not know if I understood the exercise well but it is not my native language, I am going to thank you for your collaboration to the @crypto.piotr campaign in which I was benefited, I hope you have happy year.
