the motto for our country is "In God We Trust", so maybe all those that are believers in God should stay and just do as they were instructed by Jesus to love and serve others as He showed them by His example and His love, but always keeping their hearts and minds on God and things above.

witchcraft and doing his dirty work. It is hence believed that witches are comprised of the people that have gone against God meaning they have partaken in evil and been claimed by the devil. The association with witchcraft and the eminent fear of the devil contributes a great deal to understanding the cause of the Salem Trials.

Emmanuel shall come to thee, O Israel” These words float through the speakers of the radio, church and department store this Advent season.

I want to start off by saying that Friedrich Nietzsche was one of the more complicated philosophers that I ever had pleasure of studying. What I took away from Friedrich Nietzsche opinions on the death of God is that he was referring to the declining belief and respect for God or religion in general.
