“If people are sitting on something you want, you call them the enemy.” Human’s material desire and Navis’ animism build up a contrast between materialist in reality and animist world in the film Avatar (2009) by James Cameron.

“Choose wisely…by praying… Lord, Jesus Christ, I’ve been wrong and done wrong. Come into my Heart! Save me from Hell!” Faith or pride…Everyman had to choose for himself. One truly led to a beautiful “Life after Death” the other lead to…an unbelievably horrible one. Ever man had to choose one or the other, knowingly or unknowingly, for himself. That choice set in motion the consequences automatically. “Oh my God…” Los Angeles was a beautiful city, with millions of beautiful people. They were the

Oscar Wilde’s The Picture of Dorian Gray depicts the depraved and patriarchal society of the nineteenth century England, but also the narcissistic, Faustian and hedonistic moral views that Dorian Gray, the eponymous character, goes throughout the novel. This essay seeks to demonstrate that various views on morality are present and paramount to the integrity of the narration that is The Picture of Dorian Gray.

The structure of a story can either make or break the book being written. The Birthmark and The Scarlet Letter, both by Nathaniel Hawthorne, are both effective in the ways they were written. The birthmark is a short story that teaches a life lesson. Hawthorne was effective in the way he structured this specific story since he didn’t dwell on history and small details. The Scarlet Letter was very effective and the structure played a huge role in that. Hawthorne deliberately focused on connections

I agree with Cranshaw’s usages of the eye and mouth comparisons that represented Jesus’s crucifixion. The author compares Jesus’s wounds to an uncustomary comparison to his wounds. He described the eyes because the eyes infiltrated by the light just as the body is hurt by being infiltrated by a weapon. In lines 1-4, it states, “O these wakeful wounds of thine! Are they mouths? Or are they eyes? Be they mouths, or be they eyne, Each bleeding part someone supplies”(1-4). In this quote, the mouth

It was during the Great Awakening, when powerful preachers like Jonathan Edwards decided to intensify their ways of broadcasting their religious seriousness. The idea of secularism and religious neglect had been the cause for this religious movement. In his sermon, from Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God, Edwards used strategies to guilt, persuade, and redirect the “sinners” into conversion, and to give a wakeup call to those who overemphasize their own worthiness as holy citizens. Throughout his

Oedipus Rex [Scene: outside, in front of the palace of Oedipus. There is also a shrine to Apollo at which are seated many suppliants. Oedipus enters the stage from the palace.] OEDIPUS: My children, new-sprung race of old Cadmus, why do you sit at my shrines, wearing garlands of the suppliants’ olive? All around the city is filled with the smell of incense, all around filled with the sound of hymns and groans.(5) These things I did not think it right to learn from messengers, and so I have come here

In Dante’s Inferno, hell is organized into sections that are categorized in ascending order of severity as they descend into the depths of hell. The punishment of the sinners in each category reflects the sin itself, known as contrapasso. However, the severity of a sin and its punishment was never explicitly stated in the Inferno, which can lead to multiple interpretations of the ordering principle of hell. In the Inferno, individuals who committed fraud are punished far more severely than those

Fear is an emotion that someone receive when they believe someone or something is dangerous. Fear appeals as a persuasive message that can influence attitudes and behavior. Fear has been very effective in the past and in today’s literature. Using fear as a motivational tool can make a person grow in strength, but it can also make a person weaker. Using fear as a motivational tool is an effective way to modify human behavior. When the world was more dangerous and based on survival, fear helped keep

Through several chapters, Homer illustrates the different example of virtues and vices. He shows how they should be exhibited and the way they should be controlled. Anger is one of the vices that is a constant theme throughout his works. Anger is shown negatively when it consumes and overwhelms a person and their actions. Anger is a vice in both the text because it distorts a life of aréte for Homer and the holiness that is shown in god. In the Biblical narrative, it showcases a unique brotherly

First question In chapter 1-3, Dr. Tripp explains why others are necessary for personal growth in the gospel. Before the Fall, everything is perfect and there was no sin nor struggle in the world. But sadly, Adam and Eve sinned, the perfect relationship between people and God was destroyed. Fear, guilt, shame, depression, anxiety came into human’s life. Humanity cannot save themselves from sins. Sins produces rebellion and foolishness. With sin people are incapable to fulfill God’s

are doing, and therefore need not to be forgiven? Well Jesus did it, He forgave those who betrayed him, crucified and killed him. Upon all the disgrace, the nakedness, the beating and the pain he went through from Pontius Pilate’s palace to the Cross. He chose to forgive. Wouldn’t you have prayed for revenge, wouldn’t you have prayed for God to destroy them or prayed for the same thing to happen to them? Even when He was once rejected, His disciples asked Him to call fire from heaven to burn them

Often in the sermons pastors persuade their audience to behave in a spiritual or more fashion. Such is the case in Jonathan Edwards “Sinners in the hands of an Angry God” where he sends sinners to hell, who do not repent. Edwards wanted to impact his audience by appealing to their fears, pity and vanity. Edwards had a powerful impact on his puritan audience because of his use of a cautionary tone, clear imagery and complex figurative language. Foremost, Edwards has a powerful impact on his puritan

Here comes the flood. There came a time when the humans grew to be wicked, and God was sorry that he ever made humankind on the earth. This is when he concocted his plan to rid of his mistake. God admitting that he made a mistake shows that though he is powerful and all holy, he can still make a mistake. The one human who earned his favor was Noah. He took his family and various pairs of animals into an ark to survive the flood that God was planning. Once the flood is over (and God vows to never

to live a holy life according to God. (Galens, Pg. 62). The play uses allegory characters to act out morality amongst all humans including Christians (Jokinen, 2010). “Everyman” the main character is used to represent all humans in their quest to salvation. God feels angry at man

When God created the universe, all things were good. The Lord made everything, all planet and stars, all people and animals. He found these things to be good in his eyes. Since He is a perfect being, that means that these things were near perfection. However, the people that God made were given free will. Unfortunately, they chose to defy their perfect God, and in so doing, the humans distanced themselves from the flawlessness of Him. They ignored the only restriction put on them and they committed
