In the United States there are currently eight states that do not require you to have a permit to carry a concealed handgun. These states include Alaska, Kansas, Arizona, Maine, Vermont, Wyoming, and West Virginia. While there are some differences in the laws between the states the general idea of this law is that residents of the state who are over the age of 21 and have not lost their firearms rights do not need a special permit, but instead the Second Amendment counts as their permit, to be…

Relationship between Crime and Religion Specialists have long tried to comprehend the relationship amongst religion and the commission of criminal or freak practices. French humanist Émile Durkheim (1897) was one of the first to consider this point. Durkheim trusted that religion worked as a social constrain with the end goal that more prominent levels of religious responsibility ought to prompt to lessened negative practices. Before the exact research on this subject is talked about, the vital…

Drafted into the German army in the early stages of WWII, Peter left behind his son and family. He always tried to stay constructive because Peter knew one day karma would come back in his favor. Every time there was an opportunity to be a Good Samaritan, Peter obliged. As a POW transferred to a camp in America, one day as he was waiting in Grand Central Station, a toy ball (similar to the one he had bought his son for his 3rd birthday) rolled to his feet. A young American boy came over and told…

Christian, I must have a good relationship with God, creation and neighbor. What I learned about this topic was that to become a Good Samaritan, I have to be a good person, help everybody without expecting anything in return, and look at Christ as a model. We should mirror his actions when he came and walked on the Earth. In others words, the parable of the Good Samaritan means that we should love our neighbor as ourselves and love as Christ would. In conclusion, over this past course I…

Greeks. Although the revolt presented an opportunity to unify the Jewish people under a single ideology, instead more division occurred. The presence of Samaritans who claimed to be descendants of the lost tribes of the north presented another ideological question: What practice of Judaism was correct since both the Jews of Jerusalem and the Samaritans were obviously influenced by foreign nations? Furthermore, “Judah the Maccabee’s eventual victory and claim to the Israelite monarchy divides the…

any matter. Due to the frequent reoccurrence of this, a few states here in the U.S. have taken action to try and resolve this matter. Minnesota, Rhode Island, and Vermont all require bystanders to help someone in danger if it won't endanger the Samaritan. In contrast, Hawaii, Washington, and Wisconsin require witnesses to report a crime or an emergency. These six states have already contributed to reversing the bystander effect, but it should not be limited to just them, as this is a nationwide…

Christianity in Western Culture is exceptionally underrated in countless ways. The Christian Church often impacts education, healthcare, welfare, politics, art and many other cultural aspects in everyday life. Jesus spoke in The Parable of the Good Samaritan (Luke 10:25-37 NIV) and explained to his disciple what is expected out of him in order to obtain eternal life. He defined what a neighbor is which further instills the core of Christianity and instructs those to give blessing to those who…

potential, but as they have been resolved, my future is boundless. The educational environment has drilled into students that they are less likely to succeed if they do not obtain astounding GPA’s, soaring test scores, and become ambitious Samaritans who have completed years of community service. My diversity and determination will fracture the image of the “perfect” student, as I am proficient in multiple areas. For example, my guidance counselor in Chicago nominated me to attend the…

Saint Luke the evangelist was very faithful to God and helped a lot of people learn about God. Saint Luke was one of the four Gospel writers. His Gospel is the second longest out of the four. His gospel has my favorite story which is the Good Samaritan. His gospel taught about the love and faithfulness of Jesus Christ. It also talks about salvation history. He also divides the history of the first century Christianity into three stages which the gospel talks about two of the three. Saint Luke…
