Hi,here are three discussion, they all have different requirements.1. Three Perspectives on the Role of Religion and God in Disasters and Catastrophes The role of religion and God in natural disasters and catastrophes has been debated for a long time. Throughout time some have proclaimed that these devastating events are the Hand of God punishing people and nations for their sins . Others have often cited passages from different Holy Writings that God is Protector and Savior in times of trouble. Many organized religions have and continue to make very significant contributions after disasters strike with their relief efforts. Many of the World s religions have also played a role as guardians of culture and preservers of historical texts .Watch the three videos below and talk about them in the Discussion Forum.What did you find interesting among what was shared?

Can Animals Predict Disasters? Animals are very much a part of the story of disasters and catastrophes. During the rescue effort after Hurricane Katrina, many people refused to be rescued if it meant leaving their pets behind. Animals are often a significant part of the rescue effort after earthquakes and other disasters that require finding people who have been buried. The videos below explain how some people believe animals are tuned into nature in such a way that they can sense (predict) a pending disaster.Hear what they have to say and then in this discussion forum tells us what you think. Can animals predict disasters? If you had a pet in a time of a disaster, what would you do if the rescuers said humans only .Thank you
