Hello! I am a college student writing on the impact of religion in society. Of course, the topic is broad, and I have to narrow it down. Here are my questions:1. Can you give me ideas on how to narrow the topic to a ten page essay? My background: Immigrant living in West Texas (Bible Belt). The essay shouldn't discuss the veracity of religion, but its impact, whether it is on politics, society or the individual.2.

Unseen replied to Elon Johnson's discussion 'Do you Life of Pi?'"Now that I've seen it, I must say it was very well done, though I've also heard that the tiger nearly drowned."
Lana Smith replied to Elon Johnson's discussion 'Do you Life of Pi?'"I have not read the book, but I enjoyed the movie"
Elon Johnson commented on Teri G's blog post 'Feeling like an island in the middle of a sea of stupidity'"I feel exactly like you.

This is a TED Talk on the subject."
Elon Johnson replied to Dan Ashton Lloyd's discussion ''Google Killed God''"I don't think 'Google killed God', but I think it wounded it... and badly. In my personal experience I think the internet was crucial.

Elon Johnson replied to Belle Rose's discussion 'Is the struggle of the women in Islamic countries the same as Latino women?'" I think you bring a very interesting point, although I wouldn't go as far as saying that the problem is the "same". Women in Latin countries can vote and drive. FGM is not a problem and women have rights. Now, is the equality…"
Elon Johnson replied to Stephen Gunn's discussion 'Are all religions superstitions?'""If you don't believe it, it is mythology; if you believe it, it is religion""
Kairan Nierde replied to Elon Johnson's discussion 'Famous Atheists Characters in Fiction'"I like that his codpiece is larger than his head."
Unseen replied to Elon Johnson's discussion 'Famous Atheists Characters in Fiction'"Ayn Rand was explicitly and severely atheistic, so I think one can assume that her protagonists reflect her views."
SteveInCO replied to Elon Johnson's discussion 'Famous Atheists Characters in Fiction'"True they say very little explicit. John Galt comes closest in his speech where he says something about there being no reason in this world for something or other, then goes on to say that there was no other world."
Jeremy Myob replied to Elon Johnson's discussion 'Famous Atheists Characters in Fiction'"Jubal is God. All that groks is God."
Gary Clouse replied to Elon Johnson's discussion 'Famous Atheists Characters in Fiction'"In Robert Heinlein's classic novel "Stranger in a Strange Land", the character of Jubal Harshaw, although self described as an agnostic, is really more on an atheist in practice,"
