one page handed in: 3 salient points and one overall statement of value to the point of view on the student today. What does it mean and how is it useful? DEVISE ONE "exercise" that you could "assign" to all other students in the class to "do" or "undo".

esp true that you have to "get inside" others to understand their "religious" life - w/o jmt. and do we not hold to many or all our beliefs, not just our religious beliefs, with a fervor?

the "understander" (the phenomenologist) has to deepen his or her involvement with the phenomena to the point at which it becomes possible to testify to the value and meaning intrinsic to them

the "opponent", therefore, has to testify to the point of view of his "opponent!"
