iDebate Rwanda Reflection Paper I had heard and written about the events of the Rwandan Genocide prior to when iDebate Rwanda came to our class, and thus was well aware of the struggles during and after the genocide. Knowing about this massacre, it is amazing to see that the younger generation is finding a way to heal and grow through debate. The genocide itself was truly horrific, and around 800,000 people were killed in the short span of 100 days, mostly being Tutsi and Tutsi sympathizers who…

their products without regards for their impacts. Our society defines people by appearance, and individuals cannot escape those superficialities impressed on them at a young age. Marge Piercy’s “Barbie Doll”, Langston Hughes’ “Theme for English B”, and Paul Monette’s “No Goodbyes” are poems that illustrate the harms done. Although degrading standards are endorsed and supported by the public, adverse effects manifest in all and determine their outcomes by impacting their concepts of self and…

In 1994, a genocide happened in Rwanda between two population, Hutu and Tutsi. The Hutus started killing over one million Tutsis within three month due to the limited resources and food. This conflict was very similar to the World War II, and was the biggest genocide after World War II. Most Hutus were being punished with lifetime in prison, community service, fine and other special reparations are possible. The kild under the age 14 were sent to training camps.

Today, the world has shifted into seeing a prize as a gift that is given instead of earned. They have formed a bad habit of not seeing a point in trying or being motivated without a something to award them with afterwards. Participation trophies are crutches that have begun to take over the minds of those competing. Trophies are made to have a meaning. It is stated that, “Participation awards are place holders in life. They are records of accomplishment” (Priceman). At a young age, many kids…

The artist of the Garden of Earthly Delights was created by a flemish painter named Hieronymus Bosch. Bosch was born in the 1450s and burried in on August 9th 1516.

The following photo is artwork that depicted the Battle of Jemappes: a battle between French and Austrian troops that took place near Jemappes, Belgium on November 6, 1792 (Rickard). Henry Scheffer, a Dutch/French painter made a rendition of Horace Vernet’s depiction of this event, which was originally created in 1821. Taking a deeper look into the French Revolution and it’s contributing factors, we can see how this battle, like many others, showed the true passion of war and why exactly this…

“under the power of sin” or living in “the flesh” (Thibodaux, video). To the Gentiles, from chapter 1:18-32, Paul addressed idolatry (1:22-25) and sexual perversion (1:26-32). St. Paul said, "They are filled with every form of wickedness, evil, greed, and malice" and then lists a multitude of sins: envy, murder, rivalry, treachery, spite, gossips, and hate of God. According to St. Paul, the Gentiles are "insolent, haughty, boastful, ingenious in their wickedness, and rebellious toward their…

the sermon that the pastor wants the congregation to remember the most and take away. I think this section is the part that Paul wanted all the people to especially take away. Verse nineteen Paul says, "For through the law I died to the law so that I might live for God", which means that he gave up the rules back then so that he could be a Christian living for God.

familiar with because of the love chapter. Many Christians are also very familiar with this book because the Paul wrote this book. The text of 1 Corinthians provides us with evidence that Paul wrote this book. 1 Corinthians 1:1(English Standard Version) says, “Paul, called by the will of God to be an apostle of Christ Jesus, and our brother Sosthenes,” Textual evidence shows that Paul was the author, but also scholars also agree on the authorship of this book.
