Abomination

The pet overpopulation problem in the United States is sickening to me as a human being. We allow people to profit from the breeding of their pets when there are too many animals being euthanized every day in shelters. Animals in our shelters are fighting for their lives every single day, and yet we are allowing breeders and puppy mills to continue to produce more and more animals. Pet ownership is not a right. Pet owners have a responsibility to leash their animals, dispose of their waste…

Blood Fever. The children who ends up surviving the blood fever usually receive a special mark and powers. The society they live in despises malfettos (malfettos are the survivors of the blood fever who are left with a mark) and thinks they are an abomination to society. In order to be safe from society, a group of malfettos create a group called the Young Elites. That is pretty much all I can say without getting too spoilery. The first part…

he lies with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination. They shall surely be put to death. Their blood shall be upon them”. The facts and points presented in this essay are too strong to ignore. Gay marriage is wrong and should not be accepted. It goes against not only religious beliefs but natural law. By legalizing it the government is essentially forcing people to accept something that should never be accepted. It is an abomination and should be looked down upon. If you are gay and…

Words Beneath Our Feet When walking amongst an old abandoned building taken over by nature, on a land you are unfamiliar with, do you ever wonder what had happened there? If there were secrets held, deaths or tortured souls that once walked on the very ground you are standing on? This is how I feel about the lands of the South. I believe that trees hundreds of years old and the dirt beneath our feet hold the stories. They can hold the residual emotions that once swept the places at hand and…

growing up in a devoutly religious home is a multifaceted complexity; many religions remain unclear in their positions on sexuality. Sexualities other than heterosexuality are hardly discussed, and when they are, they’re connoted with terms like “abomination” or “unnatural.” However, even heterosexuality remains a grey area in many religions. While being heterosexual may mean being free from persecution, the sexual acts of heterosexual people, specifically women, are not. In this essay I will…

Our name is as big a part of us as our personality. Maya exclaims, “I was liked, and what a difference it made. I was respected not as Mrs. Henderson's grandchild or Bailey's sister but for just being Marguerite Johnson.” (56) Being called out of our name is something that not only affects Maya, But other characters in I know Why the Caged Bird Sings. Maya along with the other negroes of stamps find it disrespectful to be called something other than the name they were given. In chapter 16, Maya…

“The world has no end, and what is good among one people is an abomination with others.” (104). The quote from the book Things Fall Apart is an explanation of how a common practice for one culture or one set of people may be against the morals of another. Cultural collisions are therefore the introduction of contradictory practices. There are many characters who had reacted differently to the introduction of the European settlers but Okonkwo seemed to have the most profound reaction.…

Night in the book is expressing the dark times of the holocaust which caused many miseries and horrendous pain and death to numerous of jews that have been captured because of their beliefs and religion. The title can be interpreted both literally and figuratively for the meaning of night because the book has inferior effects happening there and figuratively, there was darkness coming to the jews which risked them their lives. In other words, this memoir was one of the dark ages for everyone in…

Creationists are not exactly open to other theories of human existence. “The Great Debate,” as many have called it, has been a vivid and intense argument going on for the past century. In the last two hundred years Creation has been the historic and inherent default throughout most of all cultures and religion. Now people are coming together to question and argue how the world and human life originated. The Evolution theory supersedes the Creationism theory because you can’t hear, see, touch,…

they also used statistics that are not relevant. I still do not have a firm opinion on this point because I still need to investigate more in what the bible says. Passages that I am still confused in is Leviticus because of the mentioning of an abomination and how it can have other meanings like the homosexuality but I feel like it can also have a meaning towards the raping that was occurring by straight men towards other men. I think I need to read the beginning of Leviticus or other…
