It is understandable that so many people in our
class did not find the last act of Eugene
O'Neill's Long Day's Journey Into Night a
satisfying one; there is no tidy ending, no
goodbye kisses or murder confessions; none of the
characters leave the stage with flowers in their
hands or with smiles on their faces and none of
the characters give explanatory monologues after
the curtain falls, as we " ve become accustomed to
by reading so much Shakespeare. O'Neill, though,
isn't Shakespeare and Long D...

An often-heated debate is that of capitol
punishment. This is tricky subject though since so
many people have troubles deciding for themselves
where to draw the line with their morals. Some
people say that killing in any form is absolutely
wrong. Some people agree that killing is wrong,
however, if one person kills another it is what
they deserve. Both views are quite respectable.
The Old Testament does in fact say an eye for an
eye. Thus, the punishment should fit the crime. If

Gracious Long Suffering Teachings About His Mercy God
996 words
Most readers of the Bible have noticed numerous
references to the anger of God. Judging from some
of these passages, it would seem that God is at
least sometimes excessively angry. He says, "A
fire is kindled in My anger, and shall burn unto
the lowest hell. " (Deuteronomy 32: 22) "And I
myself will fight against you with an outstretched
hand and with a strong arm, even in anger, and in
fury, and in great wrath. " (Jeremiah 21: 5) In
may seem that His anger is vicious, more than the
offense woul...

matter, neither are the words Trinity or
Incarnation. But for all three the teaching is
there, as recognized for nearly 2, 000 years in
the Sacred Tradition of the Church, the very
Tradition which Paul places alongside Scripture as
