  • 1. How can one find truth and, specifically, the meaning of life? Can you find it by reasoning? How would you define "reason"? 2.

How is one to be "saved"? How does one find a place in Heaven? 4. Have you ever had a "religious experience"? Where and when? 5. How would you describe your own personal relationship to nature? 6. Do you support the current environment movement? If so, why?

  • Have students create a "perfect" community, giving it a name, a system of government, a physical description, and an account of how its people spend their days. Discuss how that community would change and grow. What roles would history and memories of painful events play in the growth of the community? What would have to be added to our own society in order to make it perfect? What would be lost in this quest for perfection?
