H1. The lecture mentions that the acceptance of Arabic as a liturgical language by the Pope of Alexandria may have aided the rise to dominance of Islam in Egypt. Your thoughts?

+

: Language is what drives and leads and defines culture and government. Once Egypt when to Arabic as its religious (liturgical) language, it was inevitable that the religion most dominant in that language would eventually prevail. (Instructor)

H2. Some question whether Confucianism is really a religion. What is your view?

H6. The lecture says that John the Apostle, the author of the Gospel of John, was a teenager. How old do you think he was? Explain (thinking beyond the lecture and using the Bible may help).

+

: A student pointed out that John is often portrayed by Hollywood as bearded, or at least as an adult. In fact, all evidence points to his being a very young teenager. See Conservapedia's [[Mystery:Was John a Child?]] (Instructor)

H?) This is not in the lecture, but it pertains to Jesus. I wonder why God had Jesus die at such a young age. I mean obviously it was perfect timing for reasons we do not know, but don’t you think [[Jesus]] could have converted more people had he lived a bit longer? (Jonathan L.)
