Relationship With God Older Brother
1,544 words
Jacob was born to be a deceiver. He came out of
Rebekah's womb "grasping the heel" of his older
brother Esau, setting the pattern of deception his
life would soon take. But he was also born of
God's promise, born to be the father of Nations
and revered by his people. How can a trickster
inherit such a high place of esteem without
earning God's approval through pious prayer and
obedience? Elijah the prophet was also special to

valued, it was his h...

War in Iraq War in Iraq has become another bloody
page in American and world history. Many people
compare it with the War in Vietnam. I think that
such comparisons are false and forced. Each war
has some common features and each of them differs
greatly. There is no sense to compare wars but
there is a great reason to avoid them especially
when there are no chances for victory. I will
explain to you my point of view later. Now I want

Is the Media Bias? Many people including myself
believe that it is. On the other hand, there are
people who believe that media is not biased and
just states facts. These people (i. e. my dad),

We see bias in media (print or broadcast) many
times. It might be the subtlest of things that is
unnoticeable to more blatant attempts. The fact is
