Commit A Crime Convicted Criminals
1,002 words
It is unreasonable to think that to take the life
of a man who has taken that of another is to show
lack of regard for human life. We show, on the
contrary, an emphatic regard for it, by the
adoption of a rule that he who violates that right
in another forfeits it for himself. My agreement
with these, the words of philosopher John Stuart
Mill, compels me to affirm today s resolution,
that capital punishment is justified. My value
premise for the round will be justice, giving each
individual his ...

Characterization of Reverend Samuel Parris
Throughout The Crucible we are introduced to and
follow four or five important characters that
Arthur Miller elaborated upon. One of those
characters is Reverend Samuel Parris, a bitter
minister who came to Salem for unclear reasons.
That reason may have been he was looking for a
small town to control, maybe he was trying to
escape something or someone, or he may have just
wanted a fresh, clean start; whatever that rea...

Henry M. Morris, Ph. D. The Scientific Case for
Creation. Creation-Life Publishers, Inc. ? 1977.
The Creation vs. Evolution debate has raged on

model. Often times this debate is pulled from the
realm of scientific fact and observance into that
of personal faith and lifestyle. The Scientific
Case for Creation, by Dr. Henry M. Morris, is a
book that attempts to address the issues from a
purely scientific point of view. In fact the

James Monahan Mrs. Mc Nicholas English 4 AP 11
December 2000 Creon as Tragic Hero Since the play?
s inception, there has always existed a contention
concerning the true hero of Sophocles? Antigone.
It is a widely held belief that Antigone must be
the main character simply because she and the
drama share name. This is, of course, a very
logical assumption. Certainly Sophocles must have
at least meant her to be viewed as the
protagonist, else he would not have given her the
play? s title. Analytic...

Tragic Hero Tragic Flaw

Does King Lear Play the Tragic Hero, or the
Autocrat? It is quite possible to make an argument
in favour of either answer, an argument that would
prove to be quite a debate, although one answer
would weigh in favour of the other. To prove this,
certain elements would have to be analysed
thoroughly, all aspects taken into context and
sufficient research done into the matter. This is
the only method in which a fair debate of the
argument can be taken into consideration. We can

archetypes and they all come through in
strategical places throughout the course of the
play. When introduced to Emilia, the reader sees
her as a whore because of her worldly demeanour.

Past Or Any Laws Future As It Was Determined Free
1,152 words
Free will and determinism are incompatible for the
reason that one cannot exist in the Universe with
the other. If a person has the ability to make
their own day-to-day decisions, their action could
be classified under the principles of determinism
or those of free will. For example, X (X being a
person) woke up in the morning and decided to take
the day off to drive their new car instead of
going to work, is an example of a person
exercising either free will or determinism. This
action was comp...
