Vice

sins or capital vices, are a list of the worst sins that cut one from god’s grace. To every sin there is a holy virtue that has tested every known person to roam this world since the early Catholic Churches were built. Pope Gregory I‘s list included: Lust, Gluttony, Greed, Sloth, Wrath, Envy, and Pride. This list and its order were then adopted into the Roman Catholic tradition and have been used to this day.

when the Vice President tells Tillinghouse to relay among the rest of the five voters that they should vote ‘yes’ since he may not be able to compensate for their vote at the moment, but one day he would be president and voting ‘yes’ would benefit them in the long run. The series also contains examples of Richard Neustadt’s theory on how the President could use people’s need of him to his advantage. An example of this is seen when the staff convinces chief of staff, Leo, to seek the Vice…

In George Orwell’s, Politics and the English Language, he claims that it is hard to write good pros, without out making major mistakes that could potentially lose the interest of the reader. Through the course of his text, Orwell proves that “Modern English, especially written English, is full of bad habits which spread by imitation and which can be avoided” (Orwell 2). With the problems that Orwell identifies as aides in making “Bad Pros”: Dying Metaphors, False Limbs, Pretentious Diction,…

Sloth and gluttony are human vices: the former pertains to laziness or failure to do what one should do, and the latter pertains to insatiation, which can also be interpreted as selfishness. Twain mocks the South as Huck depreciates himself, declaring that he will “go to hell” for ultimately seeing the humanity in Jim and wanting to help him. Thus, the culture of the South creates an environment that encourages the human vices while simultaneously redefining those vices so that what is morally…

In some schools, vice principals are in charge of discipline, while in others they are in charge of only parts of the principal duty. In my opinion, the best thing is to have a great principal who is a great role model for the vice principal. It should also be a partnership. There should be a positive communication system and working relationship between the principal and the vice principal. I think the best apart is where the principal and vice principal share duties equally. For…
