Materials and guidelines are attachedReflect on Chapter 2 of Durkheim continuing from my classmates relfection below:
Different religious confessions affect suicide. Countries also have a role, as the example from the reading showed how Spain differes from Portugal or that of Germany, each one with their own set of suicidal development. As for Germany in Bavaria has the fewest suicides by far. Viewing Catholics and Protestants, Catholics show an excessive lower amount of suicide per million inhabitants due to the confessions which are the determination of the lower suicide rates. Between Judaism and Catholics, Judaism is two times less likely to suicide. It was found that only 100 Catholic suicide and 155 protestants, this would take in account the religion intolerance with less crime and misdemeanor. Catholics don’t owe the lower number to the minority status. Protestants are known to kill themselves more often than Catholics. The suicide rises to 528 in Baravia where the reformed religion has no followers. With a great difference between the two religions. Both religions are against suicide and even penalize it morally. Catholicism is a far greater degree of free inquiry. Protestant is more an author of his faith. The very restructured protestants have changed their views to immoral things.The desire to traditional beliefs could possibly be the reason for the lower numbers of suicide.
