Assault Weapon Ban National Rifle Association
3,095 words... Guns and violence are not just found in schools. In the state of Louisiana and Texas, more people now die from gunshot wounds than from car accidents. Since 1980 the citys homicide rate has doubled. These violent outrages are spurred on by deadly convergence of gangs, drugs, and even more assault weaponry.

Knowledge Of Good And Evil Poison Tree
456 wordsThe narrator speaks of "I" who is of the Old Testament God, renamed by Blake as Urizen, and the poison tree is his Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil.

Or rather, since the tree represents the body this anger becomes a sick and infectious body, which as repressed it into hypocritical and thereby perverted honest emotion into wrath and murder. "I told i...

Choices Between Good And Evil In The Bible
1,011 wordsThroughout the Bible there are many examples of which humans must make a choice between good and evil.

Justification By Faith End Of History
2,453 words[Course Title] The Christian Faith - Justification The classical Christian insight is captured (but also obscured, as is the fate with all slogans) in the doctrine of "justification by faith. " When a slogan ceases to illuminate and itself becomes a cause of confusion and darkness, it has outlived its usefulness. Possibly that is the case with "justification by faith, " as significant theologians like Paul Tillich have argued. (Tillich 227) The theological presupposition of the notion of justifi...

God Creates Lord God
468 wordsIn reading the book Genesis, it is hard to discern what to believe. Since there are two stories of creation, I do not know which one is correct or if either is correct because they differ in such great aspects. To make them match, you must bend the meaning of the words or look at the original translation. In a way, Genesis contradicts itself by doing this, thus leaving it to the reader to decide which one is correct. In the first story of creation, God produces the heavens and the earth. Then Go...
