Learning Activity for Lesson 2

DISCUSS page 29

1. What are your personal ideas about the nature of the world and the universe?
- The idea that human-made items aren't "natural" may come from a misunderstanding of the
definition of the word "artificial." It originally meant "made with artifice," which meant
"deliberately created in a way that needed skill." Human-made objects, including
honeycombs and beaver dams, are all artificial in that sense. However, the phrase ultimately
came to mean "unnatural."

2. What characteristics distinguish man from all other things that exist?
- Man is unique among all living creatures because of his sense of self -consciousness. All living
things are conscious. They are conscious of the changes going place in their surroundings.

1. In your personal life, what are the things that you consider “real,” “true,” or unchanging?
- The life principle can help a person create a better character and adjust to all that has
happened.
Our life concept is that our lives are guided toward the things we desire. We shall act randomly
toward ourselves and others if we do not have a guiding philosophy in life.
The life principles that we embrace must be firmly implanted in our hearts and thoughts, since
the life principles that we hold have a significant impact on the success that we want to attain
in the future. Here are some good values to abide by in your daily life.

2. Did you experience a situation where you had to defend your beliefs? Share your experience in
class
- Whenever I share God's words, there will be individuals who will mock and attack God; during
that time, I will now defend God in a polite way. I constantly keep in mind that if so meone
says something negative about God, I will defend them.

3. Have you experienced a situation where what you believed to be true turned out to be untrue?
How did this experience affect you?
- I though what I expected will come true (100%) but the result is not like that. I was unhappy
because I can't get what I want. Last, it still ok. I can eat, sleep, study, and work because of
what? It's just an experience. It's not the end to the day or the earth. I still have another
chance. I always told myself that "Failure is just an ice-cream, when you don't eat or you eat,
it is the same. You will get 0 at the end."
