Christmas Eve in my family meant a fish and seafood feast. The traditional, typical meal includes at least seven fish dishes. The celebration is meant to commemorate the wait for the birth of Jesus (Vigilla di Natale) at midnight. Christmas Eve was considered a fasting day which means that no meat can be eaten.…

The first topic Paul J. Kim talks about that affects me is how people are not perfect. Adam and Eve ate from the tree that God told them not to eat from, leaving people born after them with original sin. Original sin is passed down when someone is born and can be taken away with Baptism. This is how other types of sins were let into the world. Sometimes, we just do things without thinking about how it will hurt others close to us and affect our relationship with God. God only put two perfect…

One day there was a light pink sponge named SpongeBob squarepants. He was helping his friend Patrick paint his mac nut shell colored rock into a rose yellow. They were having the best time in the world, each saying how they splatted ice cream on each other faces. Suddenly, SpongeBob fell into the bucket of paint. When he got out he said, “Patrick, why did you do that?’’ “Do what?’’ said Patrick. SpongeBob just kept blaming Patrick for pushing him into the bucket even though Patrick didn’t do…

a tyrant, though they acknowledge God will “of his kingdom lose no part / by our revolt” (Milton 325-326). In order to retaliate against God, the demons decide to destroy God’s new creations: humanity (Milton 362-370). When Satan tempts Adam and Eve into using their free will foolishly, he assumes he has won a great victory. In the other hand, God already has a plan in place for the salvation of humanity. As a result, God’s knowledge and power do not rely on his ability to control humanity’s…
