Religious Discrimination Classification by Yuka

 Hello everyone, at last! The debut of my NGO has came. I have been researching about religious discrimination for this semester and I am glad to announce that I have created my very own NGO which is called “United Soul Foundation” in other terms, “U.S.F.” The main goals of U.S.F. are  To spread awareness To provide social support According to the results of my survey, many people are aware of religious discrimination in Japan but are not concerned. I found this fact interesting and decided to base my NGO with that fact.  To keep my NGO running, I will be carrying out fund raising charity events such as opening an art exhibition, have a film screening, and conduct charity auctions. 1)Art Exhibition →  We will organize an art exhibition featuring works from artists of different religious backgrounds. This event can showcase diverse perspectives on faith, promoting understanding and acceptance, with the sale of artworks contributing to fundraising efforts. 2)Film Scree...

 Hello everyone, in this blog entry, I am going to talk about the “fishy” website that was assigned to me during my class.  The website is about Dehydrogen Monoxide  When I first accessed the site that was assigned to me, I genuinely thought that there is a toxic chemical called “Dehydrogen Monoxide” because of the difficult words the site was using and furthermore,  people who has no knowledge about science may easily believe.  What was the aim of the website?  I came to the conclusion that the website was trying to gain income through fundings from people who believe “Dehydrogen Monoxide” must be banned globally. The site contains false information about how toxic “Dehydrogen Monoxide” is and that it is used on most of the products that we use in a daily basis. But for people who has scientific knowledge, “Dehydrogen Monoxide” is simply water. So people who has no knowledge about the “chemical substance” they are terrified of what the substance would do t...

 Hello everyone! In this entry, I will be mainly talking about how religious discrimination could affect the society, eventually answering questions no. 9 to 15 of my 30 research questions.  As I noticed from the result of my survey, religious discrimination is not a big issue in Japan. However, it is still a big issue globally, especially in The United States where many ethnicities of people live in. Religious discrimination is inevitable, and happens in many ways but, it can be prevented in various ways.  Religious discrimination in the workplace can manifest in various ways, including: Hiring and Firing: Discriminating against individuals based on their religious beliefs during the hiring process or making employment decisions such as promotions or terminations based on religion. Accommodations: Failing to reasonably accommodate employees' religious practices, such as denying requests for time off for religious holidays or refusing to allow religious attire or grooming...

 Hello everyone! In this post, I will be analyzing the results of the survey I conducted. In my survey, I had 11 questions regarding if they belong to a religious group and their other experiences with religious discrimination. I had 10 responses and the results was what I thought it would be.  The pictures below are the results of my survey.   In one of my questions, which is “If you think religious is a factor of conflict, why do you think so?”, there were interesting responses. Such as Religion is diverse and everyone has different opinions about certain religion, and it cannot be bend. Middle East countries has wars because of religion In conclusion, the responses to my survey was what I expected it to be. I think the reason for this is because Japan is generally not a religious country compared to other countries resulting to near to no conflict because of religious discrimination.  This blog was written by: Yuka Koshizuka  Aoyamagakuin University Departmen...
