I'm hoping that I might find a few people here who can help me out with a homework assignment for the Intercultural Communications course I'm taking!

I have to 'interview' people from any of the following religious/cultural groups:
Scientologist
Buddhist
Fundamentalist Christian
Hindu
Jehovah’s Witness
Mormon
Muslim
Native American
Orthodox Jew
Roman Catholic
Seventh Day Adventist
Southern Baptist
Baha’i
Shinoist

The interview consists of about 18 short-answer questions on the role of religion in your family. I have some time before the assignment is due, but I'd like to have the questionnaires returned to me by Monday the 21st if possible.

If you are a part of one of these groups and would be willing to answer some questions, please PM me with your e-mail address and I will send you the questionnaire.

Thank You!!!

Well, I am an atheist, but my mom is a Jehovah's Witness and it was the faith I was brought up in. I'm happy to help on that if you need it.

Heather, I think that your perspective would be very interesting if you are willing to take a crack at it.

Atheist was actually one of the other group options the teacher gave us. I left it off the list because it seemed like it would be hard to answer some of the questions from that viewpoint.

I'd be happy to, and if there is anything I don't know, I'll ask my mom.

I also know there is a LDS (Mormon) thread in Misc Groups and the ladies there are very accommodating with questions.

I live in a Muslim country. If you send me the questions, I can see if I can get my Arabic teacher to answer them (or someone else who has a good grasp of the English Language).

I am Roman Catholic.

My cousin is Baha'i, I can see if she is willing to participate.

oh wait, I won't even see my arabic teacher until Sunday. Not sure if I can get it back to you in time. I'll PM you my e-mail.

I'd be willing to help out.
I'm Roman Catholic. That is if twainny doesn't help.

I usually hear "fundamentalist Christian" used in a derogatory way, but if it means I follow the Bible, then that's me. I would be happy to participate.

I sent you a PM with my email, I was raised Seventh Day Adventist, which doesn't seem that prominent around here.
