present, and the attitude with which she looks
toward her future. In any case however, this poem
clearly demonstrates Frost s belief that it is the
road that one chooses...

God Is Omnipotent Christianity Is A Religion
1,452 words
Essay on the Intrinsic Flaws Inherent in

never be proved. Those who practice it live by
different morals than are preached by the most
holy texts. It is an institution in which the most
holy scripture is contradictory, and wherein the
supreme being, by the very definition, cannot
exist. Christianity is, therefore, a fundamentally
flawed religion. According to the Bible, events
have occured which are...
