Religion and Shifts

So over reading the PWB and what we disscussed in class on friday... i did sum thinking... 1) I think everyone wears their faith like Nathan, and very few people like Orlena. Sertain religions spend more time trying to convert people instead of understand. 2) and those shift things... ok so this reacently happend to me over the last three years but i seriously thought the catholic church was the only true religion, and i went to other churches and that helped me better understand other christian religions... but i still think being a Catholic is best for me. but im more open to listining to other religions not just in the sector of chistanity..

The PWB

Everytime I pick up the Poisonwood Bible I can't keep from thinking about how much I am learning from it. In our last two books in class I found it easier to just read the book because I had to, but its completely different with this one. Everything in this book has so much built into it. I feel like I have to read slower to catch all the details because it is SO indepth. I really enjoy each of the characters and their unique use of dialogue and thoughts.

I also find our discussions in class quite interesting. I really like hearing what others have to say about the novel and different characters as we dig deeper into the story. Discussions always help to clear the misunderstandings I sometimes find and make things clearer. Sometimes I feel like the book is saying one thing where it might be saying something completely different to someone else or just in actually.

I'm still confused about the different books and what exactly each of them mean overall. With this book I find it easier to understand the details but not the big picture. I really enjoy reading The Poisonwood Bible because it is very interesting, has a lot of meaning, and has great comparisons and interpretations from its literal message in several cases.

I have been realizing that the more that each character reveals, the more I can see that I am really like all of them. I guess thats why I enjoy the book so much. I'm looking forward to getting further into the book.
