Morality Foundations Padlet (Sam Quinn & Lyssa Diess) by Sandra Quinn https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433 en-us 2018-09-10 14:40:49 UTC 2018-10-03 01:02:26 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Brightnessdown.png 1) Psalm 150 squinn20 https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/279439428 A) The tone is very uplifting and powerful. It is cheerful and brings attention to all that G*d does for us.
       -Lyssa: I think that the author uses this tone to remind us to not take God's love for granted. It's important to always "Praise G*d."
       -Sam: I believe that the author uses this tone to instill within us a passion for God and all that he does for us.]]> 2018-09-10 14:44:39 UTC https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/279439428 1) Psalm 150 (cont.) squinn20 https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/279444494 B) 
     -Lyssa: This prayer reminds me to not take for granted the things that G*d does for us and to be thankful. It specifically makes me feel energized and uplifted.
  -Sam: This prayer affects me through it's strong words and powerful message. It gives me hope and reminds me to appreciate G*d and his actions. It makes me feel blessed.]]> 2018-09-10 14:52:50 UTC https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/279444494 1) Psalm 150 (cont.) squinn20 https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/279447291 C) 
        Lyssa- I think this prayer emphasizes that G*d is glorious and that we must "praise him" for all his deeds. We should establish a friendly and thankful relationship with G*d in the sense that we look at him for help.
Sam- This prayer tells us about G*d and his power and love for us. He is omnipotent and does everything for the good of the earth. It also shows that we should live in harmony with the rest of nature and celebrate G*d's boundless love with everyone.]]> 2018-09-10 14:57:12 UTC https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/279447291 2) Genesis 1.1-2.3 squinn20 https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/283968666 A) G*d creates using his mind and voice to bring about life and light on the Earth's surface. These elements show how powerful He truly is. He creates our entire world with simply his words.]]> 2018-09-20 15:10:08 UTC https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/283968666 2) Genesis 1.1-2.3 squinn20 https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/286463208 B)
    Lyssa- G*d creation process is hardworking and thorough. Everything that is exists in the present, future and past is because of G*d. G*d creation process is so thorough that it does not lack anything and it is utterly perfect.
    Sam- G*d's creation process is unique and well thought out. The order of which he brings about His creations is very smart. For example, he creates light and darkness at the same time and divides the land into "earth" and "sea" together so that it would make sense to us as humans.]]> 2018-09-27 12:31:51 UTC https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/286463208 2) Genesis 1.1-2.3 squinn20 https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/286464925 C)
      Lyssa- A pattern that I noticed is that G*d creates one thing but also creates the opposite. For example day and night.  This pattern and repetition enforces that nothing is missing for the world and God’s creation. 
      Sam- A pattern that I noticed was G*d continuously repeats the phrase "Let there be..." before each creation is made. After he uses these words, whatever he wishes for comes to a reality. This shows the true power of G*d's words.]]> 2018-09-27 12:35:10 UTC https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/286464925 2) Genesis 1.1-2.3 squinn20 https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/286468217 D) 
      Lyssa-  I believe that the pattern of repetition reinforces the power and perfection G*d has. The repetition also reinforces what G*d has created and the way in which he created the world. It reinforces the fact that the perfect world and the world as we know it was created by G*d. 
      Sam- I think that this repetition is emphasizing G*d's power and how he can do impossible acts with ease. Patterns reinforce our beliefs and the story of Genesis does this throughout it. I believe that these specific words are used for the purpose of understanding the immense power that G*d carries.
]]> 2018-09-27 12:41:33 UTC https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/286468217 2) Genesis 1.1-2.3 squinn20 https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/286482065 E) 
     Lyssa-  The narrative process tells us that G*d has created this world with his own hands. Understanding this proves our own connection with G*d because we walk the earth that he created. We are also individually created by G*d giving us the greatest connection of all. 
     Sam- The story of Genesis shows just how much G*d cares for and loves us. He was able to create our whole earth and everything on it out of the warmth of his heart. This shows that our relationship with God is based around love and care for the other. G*d's power was not used against us, but to make our lives better and strengthen our relationship with Him.]]> 2018-09-27 13:06:43 UTC https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/286482065 3) Genesis 2.4 - 2.25 squinn20 https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/286485966 A) The story starts of as a completely blank slate. Unlike the other story, G*d first starts with human beings and proceeds from there. He does not simply use His words to create but molds a man from clay with His own two hands. Then G*d creates several rivers and other bodies of water that humans will be able to sustain themselves.]]> 2018-09-27 13:12:29 UTC https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/286485966 3) Genesis 2.4 - 2.25 squinn20 https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/286486053 B) 
     Lyssa- I believe this story focuses upon the fact that human beings were created first. They were created first and G*d provided based on their needs and desires. I think this focuses on G*d’s selflessness and also the fact that God tends to us in times of need and help. 
     Sam- This story focuses more on the people that which God has created rather than the geography of the earth that He has made. I think this story is trying to emphasize that God's love is for us and he created all of our needs after we were made, for example rivers, trees, and animals.]]> 2018-09-27 13:12:37 UTC https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/286486053 3) Genesis 2.4 - 2.25 squinn20 https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/286486093 D)  I think this is really important coming from an all girls school. I believe that G*d values not only men but women and this passage shows that. I also believe that no matter what someone identifies you were still created by G*d and he does not value one person over the other because of their gender, race, ethnicity, and more.]]> 2018-09-27 13:12:40 UTC https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/286486093 3) Genesis 2.4 - 2.25 squinn20 https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/286486119 C)
      Lyssa-  I think this narrative has come to us to remind us of the creation of world and the many different ways in which G*d created it. I believe this ancient faith community wants us to know that we are people of G*d and we were created and loved by G*d. His unconditional faith and love is clearly proven in his utterly perfect creation of the world. 
      Sam- I believe that this story is to show us that God's focus was on us throughout his creation. It emphasizes our importance to Him and how he loves us completely. The order in which all other creation was made shows that he wanted us to be cared for and gave us all the necessities of food, water, and shelter that we needed.G*d's never-ending love is shown in both Genesis 1 and Genesis 2.]]> 2018-09-27 13:12:43 UTC https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/286486119 3) Genesis 2.4 - 2.25 squinn20 https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/286486173 E)  I believe this reinforces the fact that we come from the earth. Especially connecting this with today's society the importance of protecting the earth and taking care of it. The environment is our foundation and our home and it is crucial to take care of it. It also shows that we are simply made and G*d is much more than us.]]> 2018-09-27 13:12:47 UTC https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/286486173 4) What do you think? squinn20 https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/287406781 A) 
      -Lyssa: These creation stories provide a foundation for what it means to be human for people of faith by providing an explanation on human life. In the creation stories it explains the beginning and the creation of human life. Often these stories include sin proving our imperfection, but they also guide us on how we should live our daily lives because we were created by G*d. The creation stories sets a foundation by explaining how we are related to G*d.  
-Sam: The creation stories give life meaning for humans because it shows how much God cares for us. We must live through God's message and spread His love because we were created in His image. The stories bring attention to the strength of human's and God's relationship and how important we are to Him. Although it is complex, our relationship with Him is necessary and proven so through the various creation stories.]]> 2018-10-01 00:45:50 UTC https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/287406781 4) What do you think? squinn20 https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/287416056 B)    
       -Lyssa: For what it means to be in right relations with ourselves, these stories help us understand that being created by G*d and loving ourselves we are loving G*d. When we accept ourselves and take care of ourselves, we also do onto G*d. 
-Sam: Because we are God's creation and made in His image, we must take care of and respect ourselves. God created us in order to spread His word and His love. If we are not appreciating ourselves, we are disregarding the importance God's creation.

     -Lyssa: For what it means to be in right relations with other humans, these stories explain that by respecting others we are respecting G*d. When we do good onto others we do good onto G*d because we are all created in the image of G*d. 
     -Sam: This is similar to the previous question of loving ourselves. Our friends, family, peers, and anyone else we encounter on earth are members of God's creation, as well. All people are equalEveryone must be respected and appreciated because we were all made in God's image.]]> 2018-10-01 02:08:55 UTC https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/287416542 4) What do you think? squinn20 https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/287416831 D) 
      -Lyssa: The world was created by G*d and by taking care of and admire all of creation, such as animals, plants, and so much more we are able to connect and love G*d.
      -Sam: Similarly to the previous questions, all of our surroundings such as nature were created in God's light. Today, we are taking these things for granted and are destroying many of these creations for our own greed. All of the earth is God's creation as shared in both of the Genesis stories. ]]> 2018-10-01 02:11:42 UTC https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/287416831 4) What do you think? squinn20 https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/287417215 E)
      -Lyssa: “Right relations” to mean one establishes a respecting, admiring, and loving relation with all of G*d’s creations - ranging from oneself, others, and the environment. By developing such relations with G*d’s creations one is able to develop a strong and deep connection and charism with G*d. 
      -Sam: "Right relations" to me means respecting and appreciating something, for instance all of God's creations. There is a balance and equality in this relationship but all must be treated with dignity, love and kindness.]]> 2018-10-01 02:15:40 UTC https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/287417215 4) What do you think? squinn20 https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/287555128 F) 
     -Lyssa: I think that atheists and agnostics would have a hard time understanding and believing these creations stories. I believe these stories would be hard for atheists and agnostics to understand these stories because there is not factual or scientific evidence and proof, but rather faith. I do think that if the atheists and agnostics were to be opened minded they would see the wisdom and insight in human conditions. These stories contain wisdom by explaining the creation of human life. The explanation also provides insight in human condition because helps us understand the we are all related to one another and G*d. 
     -Sam: I think these stories would be hard to understand or believe for someone who is not of a religious background. Because they do not know the extent of God's love, I believe that these Genesis stories would be disregarded by atheists or those without faith. However, it is important that humans are made from dust and to dust they will return and I think that that is easily understood by anyone.]]> 2018-10-01 12:30:54 UTC https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/287555128 5) Who? squinn20 https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/288418021 -Lyssa: My parents teach me how to live in "right relations" to self, others and to all the earth, through their life choices and actions. Through taking care of my brother and me, my parents are able to teach me how to live in “right relations.” They work so hard to send my brother and me to school, which proves their selflessness. They continuously always no what is best, even when I do not understand. My parents do so many generous acts without being asking. They still find time to take care of themselves proves their own self love. My parents are strong and do not complain. They help the environment by recycle, taking care of plants, and picking up trash. My parents are the best role models for living and teaching me how to live in “right relations.”
-Sam: I believe that St. Madeline Sophie Barat taught and continue to teaches all Sacred Heart students how to live in "right relations" with our peers and with the earth. Her examples of kindness, hard work, and devotion to God have inspired many people around the world. St. Madeline Sophie's actions displayed her selfless character through helping the poor, teaching young women in a time where that was rare and frowned upon, and living out God's word everyday. Today, the Sacred Heart network continues to thrive under her example and five goals. Her leadership and passion has been a huge part of my life as a student at Stone Ridge.]]> 2018-10-03 00:40:43 UTC https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/288418021 6) I am Imago Dei! squinn20 https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/288419183 A) 
      -Lyssa: Although humans are imperfect and sin, being created (or to live) in "the image of G*d” means to strive for perfection utter respect towards ourselves, others, and all of God’s creations. To be created by God develops my connection and relationship to God and others. If we are all created by God, then we are all related and are brothers and sisters. 
      -Sam: To live through the image of God is to appreciate all that he has given us and continue to live instilling love within others along with yourself. We must remember that God has created us for a reason and that His love is boundless. The endless give that he has given to us surround us everyday through our peers, neighbors, families, nature, and more.]]> 2018-10-03 00:50:44 UTC https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/288419183 6) I am Imago Dei! squinn20 https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/288419710 B)
      -Lyssa: To live in “the image of G*d” means to advocate for nonviolence, promote peace, and continuously help others.  We should strive to develop “right relations.” We should also spread love by admiring ourselves and the world around us.
      -Sam: I try to live through God's image by my actions. Helping and caring for others is what I strive to do everyday because I know that is what God wants from me. Along with that, taking care of the earth that He has given us is very important. I try to protect it by making sure to recylce and compost when I can. Hopefully through these actions I am living in Go]]> 2018-10-03 00:55:06 UTC https://padlet.com/squinn20/kjtrv45mh433/wish/288419710
