Separation Of Church And State

... only Washington and Adams held days of public
prayer and thanksgiving. When Jefferson became
President he did away with those practices saying
that they were religious practices and, as such,

Shovel Nosed Sharks Christs March Toward Calvary Death

Christian symbolism, especially images that refer
to the crucifixion of Christ, is present
throughout The Old Man and the Sea. During the old
mans battle with the marlin, his palms are cut by
his fishing cable. Given Santiago's suffering and
willingness to sacrifice his life, the wounds are
suggestive of Christs stigmata, and Hemingway goes
on to portray the old man as a Christ-like martyr.
As soon as the sharks arrive, Santiago makes a
noise one would make feeling the nail go through

When I was first assigned this research paper on
Voodoo, the first thing I thought of was Voodoo

an evil religion which sacrifices humans as well
as animals to demonic gods. I think it has been
around for thousands of years, but is little left
today. I believe that Voodoo is nothing but evil
and the work of the devil. Voodoo originated in
