Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse

War and disease have almost always been seen as parallel to one another. For instance, in the Judeo-Christian Bible disease and war are two of the four horsemen of the apocalypse. Furthermore, French philosopher, Voltaire claimed that they were the “ingredients to a wretched world.” Now in the 21st century, Emmanuel Urey, a student, in response to the Ebola outbreak has added to this metaphor by stating that “[Liberia] just finished fighting a war, and now we have another one.” In other words,…

In act two, scene three, Iago has just seen another piece of his plot against Othello fall into place. After arranging Cassio 's termination, Iago has the gall to give the other man advice on how to re-enter Othello 's good graces. Iago utilizes misogynistic and racist imagery and attempts to trap the audience in his web of deception. This scene holds great importance to the narrative of Othello because, once again, Shakespeare forces the audience into Iago’s perspective without offering any…

The Lord Jesus Christ tells that people will come to know “false messiahs and false prophets who will appear and perform great signs and wonders to deceive” (Matthew 24:24). Although many false messiahs and false prophets have been a part of the earth since Jesus Resurrection, who seek to betray humans or persecute the true followers of Christ, there has never been an adequate worldwide fulfillment of the Lord’s words until the Tribulations during the first part of the 20th century. Since…

Toni Morrison’s Beloved is an examination of the fundamental human rights and relationships that the institution of slavery has prevented blacks from claiming. From parent-child relationships to basic assurances of physical safety, there is nothing that can be sacred or protected to the slave. True freedom, therefore, necessarily requires the tremendous audacity of claiming the relationships and rights that slavery had forbidden and maintaining them. The slave’s access to God should be no…

would rather kill her own child than give it up for slavery. This also shows the extreme cruelty of slavery. Morrison emphasizes the harsh realities of the enslaved. p 194 Morrison's diction choices when Paul D says that Sethe has "two feet..not four" shows how animal-like Sethe acted when she tried to kill all of her kids. Morrison also chooses to have Paul D say this because Paul D has never had the kind of love Sethe did for her kids, so he won't be able to understand. p 207 Baby suggs…

Why a widow? Is this just some random choice for the sake of analogy, or is she perhaps representative of something in particular? All theologians are in agreement that she represents a body of believers. But to refer to Christ’s church as a “widow” is indeed odd, since Christ’s church, a body of believers, is called a “virgin” in the New Testament — never a widow. Israel, however, distinct from The Church, is often pictured as a widow in scripture. (see Lam. 1:1; Isaiah 54:4; cf. 2 Cor. 11:2).…

We choose what we want to believe. There is no proof of what was before one’s life or what will happen after one’s death. It all comes down to faith when observing the inexplicable. There is no defined purpose; therefore, an individual creates their own life meaning. Sunset Boulevard (1950), directed by Billy Wilder, is a black and white film, where Norma Desmond, a famous actress of the silent film era, cannot come to terms with her career’s end. Pan’s Labyrinth (2006), directed by Guillermo…
