William James (1842-1937)
William James, an American philosopher and psychologist, argued that religion brought a new vitality to people's lives through his concept of the "religious experience." He believed that religion provided individuals with a sense of purpose, meaning, and connection to something greater than themselves. James' work emphasized the psychological benefits of religion and its impact on human flourishing.
King Philip's War was a conflict between Native American tribes and New England colonists from 1675-1678. The war resulted in significant casualties on both sides and ultimately led to the defeat of Native American peoples in the region.

Dr. Carlos Montezuma was a Yavapai-Apache physician and a Native American rights activist. He believed in the importance of preserving Native American culture, language, and sovereignty. I agree with his beliefs in the need for Native American self-determination and cultural preservation, as these are fundamental rights that all indigenous peoples should have.
The Enlightenment emphasized reason, science, and individualism, challenging traditional beliefs upheld by religion and absolute authority.

Zoroastrianism's emphasis on moral behavior, truthfulness, and a dualistic worldview also aligned with Darius's vision for a just and orderly society. Additionally, promoting Zoroastrianism helped strengthen his own position as a divine ruler, enhancing his legitimacy and authority.

The question is what can be called "mixing apples with oranges". The reason the question is poorly structured is that it asks the differences between a nation, the USA, and a religion, Islam. The USA has Islamic peoples, and Islamic peoples in Indonesia, the Middle East & Malaysia all have differences. There is no single "American religion" and there are no "Islamic" peoples that live in nations where Islam predominates that have the same cultures. In fact, in some European nations Islam is the predominate religion. Therefore there can be be no answer to this question.
