Some interesting potential articles here! The Islam/Islam controversy task force certainly opens onto some timely topics that are very relevant to things we've talked about and will continue to talk about in the course. Is there a particular article you found through the taskforce/project that you're considering?
"Ignosticism" sounds interesting, though it looks from the article that it doesn't really constitute a movement, but rather a concept that doesn't get a lot of use, and therefore it might be hard to use course readings to support much of a contribution to the article. It would depend on whether there's a substantial published discourse on the concept in scholarly literature (which you would need to find out by searching "ignosticism" through "summon" on the Queen's University Library website).
I followed the Wikipedia "Requested Article" link but couldn't find anything on the page about spirituality, self-help, cults, etc. How did you find that link? MonstreDélicat (talk) 18:16, 3 October 2015 (UTC)
