King Henry Viii Martin Luther
1,470 words
Cold-blooded, deliberate cruelty mark not only his
advancing years but his whole reign, wrote Sir
Charles Oman. This quote exemplifies the thoughts
and opinions held by many towards King Henry VIII
and the way in which he reigned from 1509 to 1547.
However many thought otherwise. His Lord
Chancellor proclaimed that, Henry was a most
gentle gentleman, his nature so benign and
pleasant that I think till this day no man hath
heard many angry words pass his mouth. Henry
indeed has shown to be somewh...

Class Discussion Problem Solving
1,330 words
From the beginning of time it has been evident
that as humans we function better in groups than
individually (Joining pg. 4). The Cro-Magnons
discovered early in time that they were more
efficient and productive working in groups than
when working independently. Once they pooled their
resources, people, and knowledge the possibilities

Together, I had never given the concept of groups
much thought. Now I realize that over the course
of our entire life w...

thing for me to do. One would think that compared
to the complex ideas of spirituality and
individuality, familiarizing myself with my body
would be a walk in the park. Yet with so many
negative views and attitudes out-weighing positive
ones, doing something as simple at talking about
anything sexual brings immediate discomfort to
either me the speaker, the listener, or usually
both. I actually rem...
