Kindness in Religion Analytical Essay by Calwriter

This paper discusses acts of kindness as they are reflected in religion. The paper describes kindness shown through an outpouring of money to Tsunami victims to illustrate individual citizens' altruism and desire to help. The Bible stories of Ruth and Naomi, of Jesus Christ giving sight to a blind man, and of the prodigal son are presented to emphasize kindness in the Bible. The paper contends that, whether kindness and altruism are shown through a parable in the Bible or through the generous giving of individual citizens, the very act of kindness is a blessing on all of humanity.
