Beginning Of The Play Lady Macbeth
1,159 words
William Shakespeare wrote many fantastic plays and
Macbeth is no exception. Part of the reason why
his plays were loved in Elizabethan times as well
as today is because they are true to life. The
audience can relate with the characters or
situations in the play because they are
emotionally involved. A literary device that
Shakespeare uses is the theme of moral reversal.
Morals are essentially the backbone of an
individuals being. A persons morals will shape the
type of person they are and how th...

Gods And Goddesses Bull Of Heaven
1,266 words
In both The Epic of Gilgamesh and the Hebrew
Bible, the humans are constantly coming into
contact with supreme beings; weather they are
polytheistic or monotheistic. Each book describes
its own God, or gods and goddesses, in different
manners. In Gilgamesh the gods and goddesses are
more personal with the humans and guide them on
their way. Where as God in the Bible is more of an
observer who contacts only those he wants to save.
It seems to me that the deities in Gilgamesh are
more willing to h...

People Morality Fact
762 words
The destruction of Dresden was not moral, nor is
any destruction, really. We as mere mortals do not
have the right to judge what is moral or not,
however. That jurisdiction is left to the powers
that be. But, we can still make haphazard guesses
as to what strikes us as moral and immoral.
Killing other humans is not something we were
given the authority to do. The means yes, the
will, yes; but not the authority. We have no right
to decide who lives or dies. Think of it this way,
how would you lik...

Pile Of Burnt Don T Car

Looking at the pile of burnt mangled metal, I
thought to myself that maybe it was not the car we
once owned. I for the life of me could not come
terms with the fact that the heap of junk sitting
before me was once an icon of passion and utter
devotion. Out of all that was left not one thing
was worth saving. It still bewilders me how people
