Intro

Christianity is the largest religion in the world. There are 2.1 billion Followers to Christianity Worldwide. Almost anywhere you go there should be some Christians. There are also a lot of branches of Christianity.

Founder

The Apostle Paul founded Christianity. But Jesus Christ formed the foundation to Christianity. Jesus is known as the son of God in Christianity. Christians say he was sent to earth to die for our sins.

Holy Book

The Bible is Christianity's Holy Book. It is separated into the New Testament and Old Testament. In it is writings from many apostles and prophets over many years.

Holidays

Christians celebrate Christmas. Some people think of christmas of a holiday to get presents and gifts. But there is a little more to christmas for Christians. Christmas represents they day Jesus Christ was killed. He was hung on a cross and people watched him hang and suffer. He eventually died after hours of suffering. Easter is considered the day Jesus was resurrected or brought back to life. He came back and showed people what happened to him. He explained everything and he continued his teachings.

Rituals

Christians believe in baptism. It is a ritual used to wash away your sins. Depending on what branch of christianity you are depends on when you are baptized. Some baptize as infants. Some also baptize as a kid or adult.

Clothing/ Dress

Christians believe in wearing modest clothing. They believe the less skin showing the better. They believe in wearing non- short shorts or no short skirts. They also don't want shirts that are to revealing.

What conflict is within football?

In the football community there is a lot of conflict between the team, but also there is a lot of conflict with other people. Through the team people are competing for starting spots on the team and that can create some trouble. People think they are good enough to start and they might be, but for a reason coaches don't believe they should be there. When someone thinks they are better then someone at a position they might start talking about it and it could turn into a fight. Also, if you were running all day in hot weather and wearing pads, i think you would be a little on your bad side to. There is also conflict off the field and not through the team. Lets say you lose a game and other people are talking about it. Someone says something to you about the game. For example, "What happened to you guys? You guys did horrible." That might start some trouble with somebody. Trust me, when you lose a game your not the happiest to hear about it the next day. Nobody wants to relive a loss. Also, other people who play other sports might believe their sport is better. Some times people even fight on who's sport they think is harder. That also starts a lot of big problems. I say you can't judge how hard something is until you have actually tried it.

Conflict

I just listened to a website about conflict. It pretty much told me about how when conflict does come in any way, you just wanna try to get out of it in the best way. It might not be easy, or fast. It will take some time and guts to do but will be worth it in the end. You just need to go talk to the person and ask why they did what they did and ask them what you did to make them angry. Ask if it hurt their feelings. Apologize for whatever you did. If they don't apologize back thats just their problem. But if they apologize back you can be friends again and the conflict was resolved. Just remember to listen to them and explain as well as you can what happened. Hopefully everything works out as you plan them to. If the conflict is not resolved right away it may be resolved later on. You just have to be patient.
