Timothy is a messenger of Paul's doctrine. The books 1 Timothy and 2 Timothy are mostly concerned with presentation of correct doctrine. We see Paul's first direction to Timothy in 1 Tim 1: 4 "Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: so do." Therefore, that we can conclude that Timothy was a great student of Paul's teachings, but also he was clearly in need of Paul's continuing support to maintain correct…
Oh, yes! Remember when I was telling you all about how a goddess as important as I cannot be ugly? Remember that? Ok. No? Fine. Let me reiterate it. I play a crucial role in Greek mythology so I simply cannot be ugly. But that doesn’t quite hit the mark does it? I need to tell you why I’m so important, don’t…
start, I assumed this 40-minute documentary was going to pertain to the KKK, and their reign of terror on African Americans. Movies that related to my assumptions of what this video was going to withhold were; Glory Road, Coach Carter, and Remember the Titans. Prejudice and discrimination between whites and blacks was the major issue in society. But as the video continued, it appeared to display more than just racism between blacks and whites, but all races. The Japanese were also slaves to…

To understand Poe's work, one must first understand his background. Sprouted from the branch of two actors; a father who turned his back on his family, and a mother who lost her life to tuberculosis, poet Edgar Allen Poe is quite familiar with being faced with isolation. Isolation; the process or fact of isolating or being isolated. Being no stranger to this, Poe uses not only mood, but imagery and diction to illustrate isolation in his work. Imbedded in each piece of writing by Poe,…
situation. It helps me get through all problems. Music has been there when I am lonely and have no one to talk to, it is like a friend. Music also takes a lot of stress out of me. Especially if the song is about an experience I am going thru. I remember a bad breakup I had and Music was there all the way. One of the relatable singers is Drake . His music is so amazing that I can relate to it almost all of time. It doesn’t matter what mood I’m in, I can always listen to him. Some of my…
Dating back to the end of The Civil War American families were forced to come to the reality that they were no longer the inferior race. The abolishment of slavery led to even more hatred between the two races. The southern families were not happy about the abolishment. Even though the government told them they couldn’t own them anymore, they weren’t going to like them. In the case of Plessy vs. Ferguson that things could be separate, but that had to be equal. In many cases for the…

Frankenstein is deliberated to be the first science fiction story to be written in both ancient and modern histories. The story is derived from the author’s travelling experience through Europe, from England along the Rhine…
segregation and hate. Whilst very important, it is overplayed. It’s ethnocentric themes are standing in the long shadow of previous films who have otherwise attempted the same ideas with success. Films like To Kill a Mockingbird, Jungle Fever and Remember the Titans have outshone the film’s themes and plot. By now, a film about racism is too common for the 21st Century and has resulted it in becoming very, very…
