Arizona State University Religion in United States Paper Using any of the materials thus far in the course (Module 1 – 3), put the materials in conversation with Albert Raboteau’s book. Some possible guiding questions: Where are the overlaps of the materials? Where does the material diverge? What does Raboteau’s narrative tell us religion in America that has not been covered in lectures?

Students should make arguments about how the course materials align, diverge or integrate with Raboteau’s Canaan Land and use the course materials and arguments in the book as supporting evidence of student arguments.

Students should make arguments about the material – not merely summarize. I suggest using this format for each paragraph: Argument sentence (Example: Religion in America is defined as… or Religion is complicated by…). Explain what is meant by the argument. Use the lectures and primary readings to support your argument or contradict your argument. Use the book to support or contradict your argument.

Students should also include a strong thesis statement. As an example, in the first paragraph a clear sentence might state, This paper will argue X, Y, and Z regarding religion in America.
