Arizona State University, wrote this essay on virtual theft for his Work and Play in Contemporary Fiction/Digital Media class. It was later published in the online magazine Slate (Bullock and Goggin 731). Weiss is clearly an educated writer, but refrains from fairly acknowledging the other side of his argument: that gamers should not be prosecuted for virtual theft.

dealing with victims of violence. A passive approach is perhaps Cooper-White’s strongest proposal for the church. Suggesting that the church listen to victims and refrain from over utilizing scripture as a means to recovery is an initiative that will enable the church to gain trust.

Agaha Shahid Ali’s The Country Without a Post Office stems from the 1990s Kashmir uprising against India, which led to violence and political turmoil in the region for a long time, and closed its post offices for seven months.

Identity is what makes individuals who they are and what separates them from their peers. In theory, an individual begins forming their identity when they are born and their identity is fully developed by the time they reach adulthood.
