  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Nature Enjoy the Sunrise/Sunset
    Father Thomas Berry says, "...our primary purpose is celebration. Celebration of the dawn and the sunset and the different seasons of the year is a religious ritual, a way in which humans can establish their integral relationship with the universe, with the planet Earth." Respond to Berry's assertion.

    I thinks this quote represents that people should celebrate the sun falling and rising each day.

    In my area there is a lot of people whom use their electronics way to much and it was a very negative effect on everyone . Also, their are many factories that pollute the air and water.
