    I say Hume is wrong. In my opinion, a wise person should base their belief on the weight of evidence that is presented. It is foolish to believe that evidence for natural events outweighs the evidence for miracles. For example, the Big Bang Theory, which many scientists believe to be true, is an event that will never repeat itself. It’s a highly rare event, but if we followed Hume’s belief, it would be considered irrational to believe in the Big Bang Theory. It contradicts our uniform…

    dominant religious group in the world, tell the story of crucifixion of Jesus Christ and his holy resurrection repeatedly in church, emphasizing the importance of the two. The current Easter Day celebration, a silly day embedded in American culture celebrated with chocolate bunnies and colorfully decorated eggs, continues to hide the true significance of the day--celebration of Jesus Christ’s resurrection. Likewise, in Light in August, William Faulkner…

    lacks patience and mercy, and is therefore filled with hatred and evil. The Gospel of John states that, "anyone who does not love remains in death" (1 John 3; 14). Death – humanity 's biggest fear – has only been overcome by Christ through His Resurrection. I, Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, testify that the path of human hatred can only be defeated by belief in Christ. I wrote in my letter to the Corinthians that "the last enemy to be destroyed is death" (1 Corinthians 15; 26). Hatred will…

For example, there are about 13-14…
