Well guys, this is it.

I'm a Christian, and I think the ideology that I thought about "requestioning," was the ideology of religions. I mean, don't get me wrong, requestioning it doesn't make me believe it any less, but it does bring up the question- is this right for me? I think it is healthy to question your religion, because it can either make you realize it isn't for you, or it can strengthen your relationship with it even more. This class made me think about the whole ideology aspect of it, and the possible reasons for having those ideologies in place. I mean, obviously it could be something that keeps people from doing bad things, but it also gives people comfort during life problems, and death. I can understand why people could view it only as that, but even as I thought about these things, I know why it is more than that for me. In the "ideological" sense, religions are right for some people, and wrong for others. I think that was the whole point of the ideology talk- at first I thought the book was saying that all ideologies were false, but then I came to understand that just ideologies aren't true for everyone. So, that is what I have taken away from that discussion, as well as the more specific religion topic that I have brought up now.
