The movie Star Wars the Force Awakens was full intense action scenes and a lot of visual effects. Many of these effects were astonishing. Most of time I could not tell what was real and what was not. Some of the first visual effects we see in the movie are amazing. At first I had no clue if what I was looking at was real or was computer generated. During the first fight, we see several examples of how amazing these visual effects are. The characters involved in this fight were shooting lasers…

Things changed after Order Sixty-Six…fall of the Republic…the fall of the Jedi…and the rise of the Galactic Empire. I remember that day, my parents were both Jedis in love, but they kept their love a secret along with my existence. By the age of eight, my parents always told me after the war, they would leave the Jedi order and be a real family. Then that day came, peace talks began; the war came to a close.

The Synoptic Gospels The New Testament is composed of four Gospels written by Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. The Gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke are known as the Synoptic Gospels because they all contain either similar or identical stories from Jesus’ life.

As a result of this incident, his disciples ?marveled that he talked with a woman.? They knew Jesus had clearly violated the rabbinic oral law, which said, ?Let the words…

However, this law only protects a Samaritan under four circumstances. First, the person must only have one motive when providing aid; saving…
