The paper should be a critical analysis of the issues surrounding Caribbean religions, their ability to sustain their religious beliefs and rituals in the face of domination, and how the religions we have studied this semester exemplify forms of resistance. The religions we have examined have responded in a variety of ways to issues of race, class, gender, labor, power, and sexuality. Your paper should take a creative look at the way Caribbean religions have faced in the past and continue to face these issues.
A small section of the paper needs to be a firsthand account of why you selected the topic answering questions such as: Are there examples of this religion in your local community of Tampa Bay?

Above all your paper should be a creative examination. You may use poetry, music, art, narrative, (either your own or an analysis of someone else’s) or a personal account of interactions with the religions, etc. You may take any topic you choose as long as you are engaging at least one religion we have discussed in class this semester. Some examples of topics are: Caribbean religions and alternative medicine, music in Caribbean religions (which can range from the ritualistic use of drumming to an examination of song lyrics to delineate some of the Caribbean religious beliefs), gender within the Caribbean religions, the approach to sexuality within the Caribbean religions, forms of resistance within the Caribbean religions, the use of animal sacrifice in multiple Caribbean religions, an examination of ritual from two or more Caribbean religions, magic in Caribbean religions, the emphasis on belief within Caribbean religions, etc.
Christology Paper
NBST 515Page 1 of 2GOSPEL CHRISTOLOGY PAPER ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONSOVERVIEWThe Gospels have been described as “biographical sermons” of Jesus. They are biographies in that they aim to inform the audience (whether reading or hearing) about the life and legacy of the protagonist – Jesus of Nazareth. They are sermons in that they aim not merely to inform, but to inspire, persuade, and elicit a response. Where multiple sources of the same presentation exist, inevitably those presentations are both alike and different. Think “remake.” For example, the movie, True Grit, was originally released in 1969 with John Wayne as “Rooster” Cogburn. It was remade in 2010 with Jeff Bridges as “Rooster” Cogburn.” The story is essentially the same in both movies, but the way the story is interpreted in the two movies, and the way the central character, “Rooster” Cogburn, is portrayed, is different. That is because the directors of the two movies paint a portrait of the central character, “Rooster” Cogburn,” so that the audiences see him through the directors’, or storytellers’, eyes. In much the same way, the four Gospel writers tell the same story of the central character of their biography, Jesus of Nazareth; but because we see Jesus through each Gospel writer’s eyes, we see a unique portrait of him in each of the four Gospels. In scholarly parlance, we call this “portrait” of Jesus the Gospel’s Christology; that is, its understanding, and presentation, of Jesus the Christ.INSTRUCTIONSYour task in this assignment is to experience the Gospel writer’s portrayal of Jesus as the story unfolds before you. Keep in mind that the assignment is not to write about who you understand Jesus to be in your Gospel, but rather to identify and describe who your Gospel writer understood Jesus to be based on the way he tells his story of Jesus. In so doing, it is best to read the Gospel all the way through at one time, as you would a story or short novel, rather than randomly shuffling through the story looking for particular scenes or passages or verses, the very act of which will disrupt the flow of the story and cause you to miss the Gospel writer’s portrayal of Jesus. If you prefer, you can listen to the Gospel read on DVD or MP3. In some ways, listening to the story is preferable to reading it because the Gospels were stories written more for the ear than the eye (remember, many in the ancient world could not read, and even if they could, books were too expensive to own a personal copy). As you read or listen to your Gospel, jot down your impressions of Jesus as his portrait emerges in the story. Try to isolate the single, central Christological image or role your Gospel writer uses to describe Jesus; for example, Messiah (or Christ), Son of Man, Son of God, Miracle Worker, Teacher, the New Moses, the Suffering Servant, the Prophet, the Word (logos of God), and so forth. Be sure that you are identifying a Christological title, and not just an emphasis of your Gospel. For example, everyone recognizes that Luke portrays Jesus as compassionate, but merely being compassionate, in and of itself, is not Christological. That could be said of lots of people who had no Messianic pretensions or aspirations. Also, while there may be multiple Christological images employed at times in your Gospel, your task is to identify and explore the singleChristological image that seems to you to dominate the writer’s view of Jesus. That is, you must explore one Christological image in your Gospel, not multiple images. There is no single “right answer” for which the instructor is looking. You can choose any Christological title you can defend from the text of your Gospel, but you must defend your choice by appeal to the text of
NBST 515Page 2 of 2your assigned Gospel.Once you have isolated the Christological portrait of Jesus you believe your Gospel writer employs, test your hypothesis against the experts by comparing your Christological interpretation with the scholarly commentaries on your Gospel. However, do not consult the commentaries until you have read your Gospel through and come to your own conclusions about its Christology. Finally, write a paper explaining and defending your Christological interpretation of Jesus in your Gospel.Students will be assigned a Gospel based on the first letter of their last names: A-F (Matthew), G-L (Mark), M-R (Luke), S-Z (John).Thesis statement: The paper must have a thesis statement clearly identifying which Christological image of Jesus will be defend, e.g., “The thesis of this paper is that Mark portrays Jesus as the Son of God.”Length of assignment: Not less than ten (10) and not more than fifteen (15) pages in length, double-spaced, excluding title page, contents page, and bibliography.Format of Assignment: Turabian, current edition. References to the biblical text may be included in the body of the paper with parenthetical citations, but all other sources must have footnotes and a bibliography of all sources cited in the paper.Number of citations: The paper should interact in detail with the four Gospels. While you must work chiefly with the biblical text (your Gospel), you must consult at least five (5) scholarly sources as “conversation partners” with whom to test your ideas.Acceptable sources: Bible, recent scholarly sources, textbooks, and course presentations. Preference should be given to academic commentaries on the Gospels. Internet sources require the instructor’s prior approval.Note: Your assignment will be checked for originality via the Turnitin plagiarism tool.

the Consumer Price Index (CPI) and its link to cost-of-living adjustments (COLAs)
In the 1990s politicians in Washington D.C. were looking for ways to balance the budget. Former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan brought attention to the importance of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) and its link to cost-of-living adjustments (COLAs) in several areas of the federal budget–most notably Social Security. Alan Greenspan argued that the CPI overstated inflation and thus led to unjustified COLAs. According to Alan Greenspan, these unjustified COLAs therefore increased the deficit, and if the overstatements in the CPI were corrected this would contribute to balancing the budget.
The Senate Finance Committee created the Boskin Commission in the 1990s to examine possible overstatements of the CPI. The commission came out with its estimate that the CPI overstated inflation by 1.1%.
Answer the following questions:
1. If the Boskin Commission’s estimate was right and the CPI overstates inflation by 1.1 % every year–what does that say about real GDP per capita and living standards in general in the United States, which are affected by the CPI ?
2. What are some of the sources of this possible overstatement of the CPI, which is calculated by the Bureau of Labor Statistics?
Your response must be at least two paragraphs (***I want you to be highly critical of the assertions propagated by Alan Greenspan and the Boskin Commission. You need to critically analyze their assertions***).
