society embraces the Christian faith, the better. However, I only partially believe Volf’s belief that violence is not an inevitable result of religion, but rather a result or distortion of what religion should be. The fact is that we are imperfect beings with a sinful nature. No way around it. Even without religious distortion crimes will be committed because we are born with a sinful nature. Will a better understanding and proper practice of Christian doctrine mitigate violence? Maybe, but I…

It is also necessary to assess their strengths and weaknesses as you see them and to evaluate which counselling situation that they would be most appropriate for. The two theories that I am going to discuss are the humanistic approach of person-centred therapy and the cognitive behavioural therapy…

Some twisted my name in other ways and called me Tissue or Tissue box. They would laugh and make fun of me in classrooms, lunch and recess.
