Throughout all of our class, a major theme has been the connection between Christianity and Economics. Every economic decision we make also makes a statement about what we believe. If we consistently give away our resources, we show that money does not have control over us.

A mature rhino typically stands about 1.3 m high at the shoulder, weighs around 700 kg, though the largest individuals have been known to weigh as much as 1,000 kilograms. - Rhinoceroses are universally recognized by their massive bodies, stumpy…

The world will melt its way into an apocalyptic world, oceans will flood places, people will die of the heat, starvation will take place. How will the human race prevent this from happening? In order to stop global warming scientists must find ideas, and look at what is causing this?

stakeholders, government entities, and curious private parties are not forced to wonder about the financial state of large public companies.

These agencies and their “varying rules and standards led to certain entities not being regulated at all, with others subject to less oversight than their peer financial firms organized under different charters” (Morrison & Foerster, 2010, p. 6). After the financial crisis, analysts pointed to the “many regulatory failures” and gaps in oversight as the reason unethical and illegal practices were overlooked or ignored (Madrick, 2010, para. 3).

couldn’t agree on what song to put onto the album.
