David

King David was an amazing man, but everyone has faults and he is no exception. However, he is arguably better than King Herod. David is the earliest king and prophet of Islam. Yet, as most of us know he is a deeply flawed man. Early in his life he was a mere shepherd boy and at this time, the Philistines were at war with Judea. However, the Philistines had made the king an offer, they had told him if he would send out one of his men to defeat Goliath, they would…

David Berkowitz, or the Son of Sam, created mayhem in New York when he killed multiple woman with a .44 caliber Bulldog revolver. He did so in the time period of a little over a year and was caught and confessed in 1977. Ever since he has been serving his time in a penitentiary and has devoted himself to God.

Learning about these characters now was different then learning about them when I was younger because I have developed more as a person and now see things differently than before. I was able to make new connections for these biblical characters as well as learn new things from…

Defining Miracle and Associated Issues In this essay, I intend to summarize David Hume’s argument from An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding, that supports his claim that, “[u]pon the whole, then, it appears that no testimony for any kind of miracle has ever amounted to a probability, much less to a proof…” (Hume 67).

His career spanned several decades in which he like his fellow musician “Bob Dylan” was not constrained by the music that he made and has reinvented himself, his musical style and appearance several times.

David Bowie has gained many fans and respect from his peers with an…
