Improved Essays
While researching Isis on the Ancient History Encyclopedia Web site, I found it interesting that she wore a headdress of an empty throne after her husband Osiris was murdered.

I also really found it interesting the details provided about how Isis was able to find a pillar, created by the tree that kept dead Osiris inside. Unfortunately, even though she was able to cut her dead husband from the pillar and carry him back to Egypt, while she looked for herbs to make a potion to bring him back to life, his brother cut Osiris to pieces and scattered them across the land. I think these are important details because the book gave a high-level

    John Kass is describing how America’s violence-dominated culture plays a prominent role in mass shootings.

These same people refuse to look in the mirror and see that they are part of the problem through their support of violence-glorifying entertainment.…
