because the war was not a class struggle, but a

has been characterized, in the words of William H.
Seward, as the? irrepressible conflict. ? In
another judgment the Civil War was viewed as
criminally stupid, an unnecessary bloodletting
brought on by arrogant extremists and blundering
politicians. Both views accept the fact that in

God Is All Powerful Book Of Genesis

The Old Testament is a compilation, and like every

who, in turn, have their individual influence upon
the final work. It is no surprise, then, that
there exist certain parallels between the Enuma
Elish, the cosmogony of the Babylonians, and the
Book of Genesis, the first part of the Pentateuch
section of the Bible. In fact, arguments may be
made that other Near Eastern texts, particularly
Sumerian, have had their influences in Biblical
