Each thread must be 500–600 words and demonstrate course-related knowledge. Each reply must be at least 250–300 words. For each Discussion, the student is required to post a thread and then post one reply. The reply will critique another classmate’s thread.

Chapter 1 in the Understanding Property Law text briefly reviews the current predominant view of law known as legal positivism and the predominant view of natural law at the nation’s founding. Chapter 2 briefly discusses 6 theories about property and property rights. Read Chapters 1–2 and the biblical passages found at Genesis 1:26–30, Genesis 2:15, and Exodus 20:15– 17. Select 1 theory discussed in Chapter 2 and compare/ contrast the theory you select with these biblical passages. Explain whether the theory reflects the principles these passages express or imply. Your statement must discuss the theory and each of the biblical passages. You must use current Bluebook citations to reference the textbook and page number, and the Bible books and verses.
