Some of the most prevalent issues of current society come from the constant threat of terrorism. Until more recently though, the word terrorism did not command the same respect that it does today. Before the attacks of September 11th, 2001, the Congress’s various intelligence committees barely ever held meetings to discuss the topic (Miller). However, after the attacks, the threat of terrorism appeared in many situations. This threat did not just intimidate the government though. Afraid to…

In the course Business Environments, much focus was put onto law and ethics within business environments as well as the main question of, does social responsibility matter? After the many discussions and explanations of corporate social responsibility, I have come to understand that many businesses rely on being socially responsible to retain business growth and sustainability within their corporations. Often in this modern society, it is difficult to continue being socially responsible but it…

There’s no easy way to say this, but I think you’re an idiot and I have the statistics to back it up! I don’t really think this, but author/director Michal Moore probably does. There’s plenty of things you can say to defend yourself to refute this blunt, insulting statement. However, Michael Moore doesn’t really care. He doesn’t mean to make the most compelling argument; he just wants to incite you, make you think, and entertain. This is clear in almost all of his work including his book, Idiot…

trophies is they make children entitled and expectant upon rewards and always succeeding. Thomas Edison failed the first 10,000 times he tried to make the light bulb. Albert Einstein was told he would never amount to anything, but proved everyone wrong. Michal Jordan has missed 9000 shots, lost 300 games and twenty six times missed the game winning shot. All these men that are considered to be successes today have failed in one way or another, but that's what made them great. They overcame their…

Marriages like David’s, Jacob’s and Solomon’s all involved polygamy. Polygamy is unacceptable morally in today’s society and against our judicial system’s meaning of marriage. In the story of David he was married to Michal first. After she was sent away to marry someone else, David had to flee the land. When David fled he met someone else and married them. As the story progresses David took on more wives and also concubines. He saw a woman named Bathsheba bathing…

Struggling with mental illness, the loss of a loved one, and addiction is by no means, a simple walk in the park, and it’s essential to find ways to dominate these obstacles. The following patients and authors struggle with lack of belonginess and love and generally their feelings are projected onto others. In Charlotte Gilman 's story The Yellow Wallpaper, published in 1892, a woman is struggling to find herself throughout the obstacles that she has to mentally overcome. In the 1845 poem “The…

King David was anointed at a young age by God to become the ruler of Israel. However King David was still subjected to physical, cognitive and socio-emotional development through his entire life-span just like all of us. He may have been labeled the “man after God’s heart”, but like us, he was not without his flaws, most of which were related to his need for continued maturation in his development as well as within his faith walk with God. During David’s adolescents his physique was depicted as…

player. It was during this time period that he first gained notoriety when he defeated the ominous giant Goliath armed with a mere slingshot. In 1 Samuel 18:20-30 it states that with a dowry of 200 Philistine foreskins he married King Saul’s daughter Michal. Unfortunately, David’s marital bliss was cut short by the jealousy of his new father-in-law. Already a seasoned warrior David was praised as a military force with songs proclaiming “Saul has slain his thousands, and David his ten…

praise the Lord. It is his effort to silence the lambs. In Michal's eyes, David made a complete fool of himself, but it was not her eyes that mattered to David. Her bitterness toward his unashamed worship brought condemnation of her own life. Michal would remain barren and never experience the blessing of motherhood. In those days, it was a shame not to bear children. Women were considered second class citizens, a possession at best to used for men’s pleasure and disposal. Not having a…
