For example simple tasks with learning something new was easy to do because my family was always there to help guide me in doing what is right. Being in a mixed culture has taught me to…

many serial killers. Profiling begins with vague generalizations, which is probably why it is often attacked. In the instance of serial killers, they are commonly a white male who is somewhere in his twenties to forties.

However, profilers only begin with these generalizations. The rest of their portraits become more accurate as evidence…

Has one ever tried so hard to forget something? Has that past event ever come to haunt one in the future? In the novel The Kite Runner(underline title), Khaled Hosseini portrays the theme of guilt through the character of Amir by illustrating that Amir cannot live his life the way he wishes to without remembering what he has done in the past.

The mix of religion and state have always been a problem it the United States. I think that it should be completely separate, because it only causes problems between two groups of people. Church in schools has caused problems for many years and probably many more years to come. In the case of Wisconsin vs Yoder the young Amish men were fighting because their religion made them live out of the world from ages 14-16, the school out weighed the individual rights. An Arkansas law banning teaching…

The Bible and what its stories have to offer support these beliefs. God It has been the stance of historic Christianity that, unlike other…

located there is always a silver line of hope. The Doctor, by Doctor Who fans, is a very loved character and series. The Doctor -- is a 900 -- something Time-Lord that travels through time and space.

Applying to Raising Cane’s and getting a job as Cashier has been the best thing I have done for myself. I put myself out in the world and had to talk to real people and not high school students anymore. Raising Cane’s has changed me as a person; before I got my job I had zero confidence in myself. I have always had a hard time talking to people, but getting a job forced me to go out and actually talk to people. Ever since I was a child I have been shy. Talking to my peers and teachers made…

unspeakable act that takes place. Now most people would think that what this town practices is not correct and very immoral. But one must look at the town in one way, that their tradition that they have practiced all of their lives has normalized these unspeakable acts. Tradition has affected the townsfolk to where killing is a normal thing and they do it with no remorse. The thought that they do kill their own because they are savages is not correct. They are normal human beings just like…

On the planet there used to be buildings, possibly large cities, but now the only thing identifiable on the planet is the pristine piece of paper. You would think that the literature would be in some strange language nobody would understand, but the literature is in English.…
