I found I struggled with the Easter/Christmas one plus’s the way belief/practice questions were mixed up threw about half of my class - so even that (which I was def relying on) wasn’t great! 🙃😔

same, my teacher said you had to write about how god recovered to temple, you can link that to Hannukah. You should also write about how god was present in both of them. not too sure tho

For Abraham question, I wrote about the promised land + brit milah. For shabbat 15 marker, I talked about reform/orthodox views and how they interpret 'rest'.

For easter/xmas question I talked about jesus' death atonement theories. importance of life after death- liberals see it as mythical, catholics - real

So for the fair and just Islam question I write about judgment day and him being fair and that Muslims understand that everything that happens is for a reason as allah is just and then I wrote about how allah could be interpreted as omnibenevolent and omniscient and omnipotent and that it was more important to view allah in this way as humans can be just and fair where as they can’t be all knowing and all powerful etc
