One fine Sabbath afternoon, the eligible Mr William Postlethwaite and I took a gentle walk across the moors around Mansfield House. The views were as exceptional as ever and the landscape 's bleak, rolling hills inspired my imagination far more than the character of my escort. I had considered him a fine gentleman on first impression, yet closer acquaintance soon revealed an altogether cold and tedious young man, one with whom any notion of union still causes me to shudder. My tolerance of Mr…
General Confederation of Labor. Being embalmed as a mummy it's pretty strange but that's not it. Three years later a group of marine commandos lead by Colonel Eugenio de Moori Koenig, broke-in into the building and stealed the corpse. Under the Libertarian Revolution dictatorship, stealing the peronist symbol was the best way they came up with to erase the great influence and legacy built by Eva. The raiders decided not to destroy…
For a character first created as a propaganda piece for the second World War, the question of Steve Rogers’ place in the 21st century is a common one. Seen on surface value as a conservative quintessential American male stuck in the grasps of old-fashioned sentimentality, Captain America is seemingly a symbol gone past it’s use by date in a time where the trend for cynical superheroes and moral ambiguity in our protagonists is at an all time high. In actual fact, however, the man who grew up in…

The history of Latin America in the 20th century was mainly centered on the liberation of the working class from the struggles of oppression, both socially and economically. The rise of liberation theology gave society the opportunity to reclaim their religion to pursue a new life, a happier life that would make way for a more just society. Both Paulo Freire’s Pedagogy of the Oppressed and Che Guevara’s concept of the “new man” in his article, “Socialism and man in Cuba”, outlined the flaws of…

judge. “For we will all stand before the judgment seat of God” (Romans 14:10). How are we to be judged for our actions by God when he already decided how we will act? The use of judgment language in the bible provides compelling evidence for a libertarian view but also the reason why free will was given to humans in the first place.

Alfonso Cuaron’s Children of Men, based on a book by P.D. James, is one of the greatest movies made during the 2000s, implicitly or explicitly referencing and discussing urgent world issues in a near-future, science fiction environment, when these issues have all snowballed into a drawn-out apocalypse.
