Question

Identify an area of diversity (racial, ethnic, religion, economic, gender, age, sexual orientation, etc.) that was challenging for you. Describe your response and how you might respond differently in the future. Discuss how this experience may impact your professional work. In addition to addressing the topic specified, this journal assignment MUST include references to social work readings (e.g. cite as a supporting reference reading on agree/disagree, etc.)

Answer 1

Religion is an area of diversity that was challenging for me.

Individuals who apparently have access to the same information and are equally interested in the truth affirm incompatible perspectives on, for instance, significant social, political, and economic issues. Such diversity of opinion, though, is nowhere more evident than in the area of religious thought.

It was challenging in religion because every individual comes up with diverse answers or their own interpretation of the religion some times it's confusing because lack of true knowledge.

My response and how I might respond differently in the future:

My response is different with people's if the individual tells something which is universal truth then everyone accepted it and my response was great toward the individual but on the other hand if other individual tells something false and try to mislead people then my response was different, so my response is based on the people.

This experience may impact my professional work because in professional work we meet with different people's from diiferent countries, cultures, religion etc so sometimes we don't agree on religious teachings or someone's might have facing problem with the others due to their religious beleifs.
