About me

• Hello, my name is Fanny Silverio Gonzalez. I came
  up with this idea by wanting to do something I
  thought no one was going to do. I thought
  everyone was going to do about recycling or about
  the pollution that affects trees.

What is Religion

• Religion is what someone beliefs are. It is also
  what they think without nobody telling them what
  to think. Religion is whether believing in a type
  of god/goddesses.
• There are many types of religions. Some of the
  most popular ones are Christianity, Catholic,
  Buddhism,Jew, or Hinduism. All of these are
  different. There are a lot of religions
  throughout the world but some religions believe
  in the same god. For example, JESUS. This god is
  shared by many religions.

  like the Buddha, for the Buddhism religion.

  found. I would like to thank Mrs. Edwards for
  helping me with almost everything Ive done and
  the computer tips. Without them I wouldnt be
  able to do this Power Point Presentation. Also
  Karleigh and Jesica for helping me understand
  what we were exactly supposed to do in class when
  I needed help.

ACVKNOLEDGEMENTS 2

• On this page I would like thank the sites that
  helped me find my research and things. I would
  like to thank thearda.com,and specially
  GOOGLEADVANCED SEARCH. Also all the churches
  Ive called and did answer but the ones that
  didnt thanks anyways. A lot of places didnt
  call me back, or even bothered to answer the
  phone. Only two churches out of the whole yellow
  pages answered. Tough one gave a phone number and
  I called and they gave another number and this
  went on for a long time. The other one said she
  couldnt give me any info because there was no
  one in there at that point who could help me.
