The Invaders

Throughout history there has always been a predicament that led to war. In that case, it is safe to assume that there will always be war, and that war can be morally justifiable. By society's standards "morality" is typically associated with the creation or demand for peace and independence. In order to obtain peace when there is a threat one must defend oneself or attack the oppressor. With that in mind, a connection can be made war and morals. For example, in General Eisenhower's "Message to…

“And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my Church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it.”1 Thus spoke Our Lord Jesus to His apostle, Peter, and for 2,000 years His words have rung true. Despite wars, plagues, persecutions, and the sinfulness of the Church's members, the Church herself endured and spread throughout the world. As the centuries passed, Catholicism's canon – both Sacred Scripture and Sacred Tradition – grew into the norm we now know…

las Minas. I don’t say this simply because I come from this place, but because this city is located in a mountainous region, so it would offer geographical protection from enemies, as it would be hard for them to reach our region’s center. If these invaders, somehow manage to get into our region, by the time they reach Ciudad de las Minas, we would be informed of their wishes, and tactics, so we could defend ourselves properly. I believe that the army and militias leaders and commanders would…

fighting force that wasn’t even at its strongest. This victory is not dissimilar too that of Alexander the Greats Battle with Darius III at Gaugamela, where 47,000 Macedonians defeated the Persian army, which amassed to 200,000. In both cases we see two “heroes” from the ancient world, who have each gone down as one of the greatest general’s and strategists of all time. However one of course conquered the world and the other didn’t even conquer Rome. Scipio’s fellow general Sempronius soon came…

Chief My Michigan Hero When people talk about heroes I tend to think about people with super powers, and cool costumes, and sidekicks. But I also think about people who spend their days away from their families and homes, risking their lives daily... people like my father. He was in the Navy for twelve years and after a few of them he became a chief. When he would have to leave, he would have to respond almost immediately. He would even have to report to the sub in the middle of the night…
