I love the teacher I had I have never met her before but I hope I will have the time to stop by her classroom and say hi. When it was near time to go to escape classroom I knew it was going to be fun. What we did in there was we had to unlock the locks that was tied around the box’s and the code was in the box’s.

Instead she is down on the steps of watching as St. George is slaying the dragon, and ultimately is saving her life. The icon of St. George slaying the dragon serves the functions of Byzantium society as it would have enhanced the beauty of the church, served as a reminder of the teachings of Christian Orthodox faith, and allowed people to…

    However, polytheism is seen as a cult following (Nardo 46) whereas, the church is viewed as a religion (History in Dispute 47).
