After accepting her offer, Claude Debussy began to travel with the woman all throughout Europe during the summer; time that he was not in school at the Conservatory. While in Paris…

Coming from a Presbyterian background, I’ve had a fairly limited knowledge of most other religions. However, after coming to Webb in sixth grade I began to study many of the other religions in my history classes. Freshman year in World History we spent a brief amount of time learning about the origins of the five largest religions; Hinduism, Buddhism, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Hinduism is a development of the religion brought to India by the Aryans in around 1500 B.C. These Aryans…

On the other hand, responsible gun laws do not infringe on the constitution and do not disarm those good citizens. Blek writes, “We must challenge and move beyond the mistaken belief that creating responsible gun laws in some manner offends our constitutional rights.” Guns have become too easily available and should not be allowed to those with mental illnesses or those with ill intentions such as criminals.
