Addiction: What Causes It? “Every addiction, no matter what it is, is the result of trying to escape from something by going in the direction of a need that is currently not being met. In order to move past our addiction, we have to figure out what we are trying to use our addiction to get away from and what need we are trying to use our addiction to meet” Teal Swan. Addiction doesn’t necessary means it has to be too a drug they’re other certain things that are addicting. In chapter seven…

positive outcomes for the community (Haun, 2015). However, those in opposition, site the danger to local crops from the molds and funguses that grow on marijuana, and leakage of illegal pesticides used on these crops; not to mention, the increase in stoned driving accidents and the rise of marijuana usage among teenagers in the state of Colorado (Haun, 2015).

In today’s world, it is decidedly as difficult if not more so to see how Hawthorne’s stratagem works towards its aim. The same sort of hypocrisy that plagues the Puritans is demonstrated again and again, as individuals or groups look to “out” others or marginalize persons whom they look down upon for whatever reason. Donald Trump, for instance, with his comments about making Muslims carry identification cards because of their religion, or the identifying of Jews in Germany by their armbands.…

Even elected Parliament members are assaulted Yet they worshiped deities outside the temples. The poor untouchables believed by doing so, sooner or later their fate will change, albeit rubbed their forehead at the entrance of temples. However, the lines on the brow disappeared and no ending to the misery and sufferings since they are…

That is true. That is what makes the sacrifice of one’s life so special. It is an ultimate act of selflessness. However, not anything is worth dying for. Because life is such a precious gift, it should only be given up when appropriate. It is a rare occurrence when there is a situation in which we find ourselves given the choice to live or die. In fact, most of us will never be faced with this choice. I feel that if there was ever a situation in which dying would be the best choice for others,…

Salem was a town with pure and hardworking Puritans. British Protestants would go out to farm their land and feed their cattle. A good Puritan could work hard and be faithful his or her entire life, but if accused of witchcraft their lives could take a turn for the worse. There were many candidates in Salem potentially deciding the lives of honest Puritans. The ultimate responsibility for the death of innocent Puritans is borne by Abigail. She falsely accused people of witchcraft of her…

Leslie Marmon Silko bring amazing work to the table but these two stories have so much in common yet at the same time are very different. In “The Lottery” by Shirley Jackson, a yearly sacrifice is done within their small village where someone is stoned to death.

A few years after Christ, Paul was born to a family of Jews in the City of Tarsus. His parents were both of Jewish lineage, resulting in his practicing of Judaism in his adolescence. During his schooling, Gamaliel, a Pharisee in Jerusalem, was Paul’s teacher. Paul spent his childhood learning to convert all followers of other faiths to Judaism using any means necessary. The occasional quotes from Greek poets in Paul’s writings allude that Paul also learned Greek and other languages from Gamaliel…
