and with that, he made a snorting, derisive sound, the sort of sound an eight-year old boy would make on a playground (66). This showed how the preacher thought of Kathy, he thought she was foolish thinking the two religions were similar, and is technically discriminating the Islam religion. Eggers appeals to pathos about Kathy feeling insulted so that is why she decided to convert into Islam. “Did he not know that his God and Islam’s were the one and the same?” (66).

She referred to her contributions as “serving God.” A lot of the people that Alexandra Pelosi interviewed during this documentary referred to their religion and that they are serving God. Sara Palin, John McCain’s choice to be vice president used the conservatives strong feelings about religion to her advantage as there were signs promoting her stating, “There is a God.” Another time that religion was brought up in the documentary was when Alexandra filmed at a church. At this church the pastor was continuously talking about how important it was to vote for McCain because “abortion is
She tells them that they’re going to hell, that they’re fools, sluts, etc. I find it funny how Madame Pernell, who supports this religious hypocrite, is being very hypocritical herself. Her name calling, anger, hatred, and the way she went about the situation didn’t reflect that of a religious person (or the ideal way that a true religious person is supposed to act). “And dances! What are those but food for slander!
Religion is undoubtedly something that is incredibly important for many people. It at times serves as a source of comfort, a sense of purpose, or even a sense of belonging.

Sections 41 and 43 of Walt Whitman’s “Song of Myself” reflect his advice to “argue not concerning God” by arguing that God can be found in the common man and by emphasizing the similar reasons as to why people are religious. Section 41 deals heavily with the concept of finding divine characteristics in everything. In the poem, Whitman mention various deities from different religions, and goes on to claim, “Discovering as much or more in a framer framing a house,” (1264). This statement implies that all admirable traits found in deities can also be found in the common man. He furthers this idea by listing the many admirable types of commoners, from a mother to a hostler.
