The Gods Must Be Crazy

Think about how life would be if some of the greatest people in this world were aborted. We could have no geniuses, celebrities, inventors, or overall role models. When aborting, a child a mother is killing an innocent human being who won't get a chance to make their impact on the world. A woman could unknowingly be ending the life of the next great inventor, the person who cures cancer, or finds an end to hunger. Sadly we will never know because these children never get a chance to prove…

our manor needs us to work the land for him, so he can’t just throw us off the land on a whim. Even though most of the food that we produce goes to the lord and his knights, at least we have the ability to grow food for ourselves and endure. Thank God, we aren’t slaves! We have a chance to become freemen if we save enough money and buy a charter of freedom from our lord. There is also the slim chance that if we are talented and cunning enough, we can gain a position in the lower clergy and raise…

are section eight, section eleven, and section fourteen. My first favorite passage states “Through not observing what is in the mind of another man has seldom been seen to be unhappy; but those who do not observe the movements of their own minds must of necessity be unhappy.” which can be found in book two section eight. This can directly relate back to the statement that Socrates makes which is “The unexamined life is not worth living.” You can examine others’ lives all you want and go…

Literature and Form of Prayers “Prayer is simply a two-way conversation between you and God” – Billy Graham. Prayers causes me to feel a sense of relief. It is the main relaxation method for all who believe in god. Just like prayers, literature also gives me this feeling of relief and relaxation. By engaging in a storyline that I enjoy reading until the end. Literature makes me think about what happened in the storyline and prayers make me think about if my prayers will be answered. To what…

We all know that who really abused Mayella was her father not Tom but we only know that because we read the book; but the characters in the book didn’t think that anyone else could have done it. They assumed that because of Tom’s color he must have done it; Mayella and her family are white so they are better than Tom no matter if they didn’t have the evidence. Atticus caught on though he knew about Mayella’s family and he knew how her father was; Atticus didn’t have prejudice against Tom…

Many issues in slavery led to the Compromise of 1850 or otherwise the Fugitive Slave Act. The Fugitive Slave Act was written by Congress in 1850, the purpose was to solve problems about slavery. One of the many problems was to the undecided status of the state of California. The south wanted California to be a slave state, but the north was trying to stop the expansion of slavery. (Give me liberty). Eventually California became a free state, but Texas become a slave state and the United States…

Androgyny in Virginia Woolf’s Orlando Ningxin,Sun What is androgyny? It says “Androgyny is the state of being neither distinctly masculine nor distinctly feminine” in the Collins dictionary. In Virginia Woolf’s Orlando (1928), Orlando was such an androgynous person who was a man at first, then became a woman and eventually, she had both male and female characteristics. Actually, this mind can also be seen in Woolf’s other works,…

dismissively telling her husband to go call "Becky with the good hair." She rejects him as she declares her non-apologies for focusing on herself. Throughout this narrative of transformation, she also negotiates sexism and the many angles that Black women must confront it. Eventually, Bey comes out on the other side freer and radically transformed. That, above all else, is what makes "Lemonade" a womanist manifesto. The most significant aspect of womanism is the transformative power of Black…

experience the wrath of God. V2. And they covet fields, and take them by violence; and houses, and take them away: so they oppress a man and his house, even a man and his heritage. Reflection: Those leaders, oppressors who fraudulently or violently take away that which belongs to the poor. V3. Therefore thus saith the Lord; Behold, against this family do I devise an evil, from which ye shall not remove your necks; neither shall ye go haughtily: for this time is evil. Reflection: God has…
