Don Decker Thesis Statement

The once bright and warm sun was no more, as wisps of wind, clocked at sixty-five miles an hour, began to whip into the town. People everywhere began to run towards any structure that could protect them from the storm: tornado shelters, gyms, basements of churches and fire stations. Attempting to escape the storm all together, some people would get into cars and try to outrun the storm, but wouldn’t get far due to the static created by the storms, which would short out their systems. The black blizzard continued to advance, and as it did, “It seemed to recirculate, picking up fresh dirt and then slamming it down, in rolling fashion” (204). Realizing the closeness of the storm, we ran back to the hotel so we could watch the rest of the storm in safety. After arriving, my cameraman got a few last pictures of the contrasting highlights of the clear sky in front of the storm. Then finally, the clouds above turned ink black and everything went dark, as soon as the duster came riding into

According to Jan-Willem van Prooijen, “I propose that these psychological processes are characterized by the joint influence of at least two complementary factors, namely subjective uncertainty, and a social concern for others”(Prooijen para 4). Later on he stated it was from a social hierarchy(actors, media stars, and political leaders) in which we believe in. Based on Prooijens proposal I agree to a point with the process. I first gained my knowledge of conspiracy theories from a well known Youtuber, Shane Dawson. Once I was introduced, I fell in love them these ideas. Taken from a non believer standpoint, I can understand how they agree with what their eyes have seen and what political leaders tell them. It is also very difficult to wrap your head around something you have known for many years to come out a different way. It is very hard to understand why a flight carrying 239 people can suddenly vanish without a trace with nothing left behind or the how the government restricts us from a highly private area, area 51, and won’t explain the means behind it. Or while we have thought for multiple years that we had someone step on the moon when now we easily think it could have been faked out. The believers and non believers have a somewhat understanding of each other. Everyone just needs to accept and appreciate the opinions of one

There are numerous incidents that people can’t believe in in the world, so many people often suspect that it was behind on the incident. People want to know truth about some incident, but they don’t have a method. They’re not sure if it is true or not, so they have created new information themselves, their new explanations are called “conspiracy theories”. According to the Economist in the UK (2008), the most well-known 10 conspiracy theories are that the World Trade Center was destroyed by the U.S government, the alien are living in Area 51, the air base in the U.S, the Apollo 11 hasn’t been to the moon, Jesus had a wife and Princess Diana was assassinated by the British Royal Family.

Many people nowadays will always believe what they read off the internet. Either if it's a natural disaster or a normal everyday possibility. This article’s main point tells you every possibility of what people want you to believe and what to believe. To the point people just start to doubt everything they read on the internet. Even when it comes from a reliable source that most people know that is true.

5. In order to find his lost video game the boy ransacked his room in hopes to find it.

There have been claims of occurrences of events that are beyond human comprehension in humans’ history. Many regard these out-of-this-world experiences as miracle. Although the accounts of these events varies with places and people, the reports make people consider the possibility of miracle happening to them even at the absence of factual evidences to support many of these events. C.S. Lewis, author of “Miracles” supports this idea that miracles can be taken seriously without firm evidence to support them, due to the fact that miracle can’t be witnessed naturally, we can’t prove that there are no proofs of miracles occurring, and that advancement in science isn’t focusing on proving the existence of an entity outside of nature.

H.P Lovecraft the popular science fiction and horror author has completely changed modern day occultism and black magic by unintentionally creating a new basis and background for modern day practicing occultists to base their beliefs and practices off of thru his fictitious novels. Throughout this essay I will provide a personal history of H.P Lovecraft that will provide insight to his personal life, inspirations, and also his outlook on life and religion. Furthermore I will dive into references of Lovecraft’s “The Great Old Ones,” Chthulu ideals in occultism, and also examples of modern occult practices that are based off of Lovecraft literature. In addition I will sum up my research by providing modern occultists’ outlook on Lovecraft’s

Bekele's family experiences can compare to Erickson’s writings. Erickson explained his take about demons and goes into details about their origin. Although, Bekele’s family were possessed by demons, an angel appeared to Bekele’s father and opened the door for his entire family to receive salvation. Erickson talks about the two classes of angels. They are Satan’s angel who have turned their backs on God and the heavenly host. Erickson explained how demons operates and Bekele’s family are the example of being overtaken by demonic strongholds and their origins.

“While everybody is taking life, I’m going to be saving it” Desmond Doss. The movie shows how a Seventh-Day Adventist, Desmond Doss, who wanted to join the military but refused to carry a weapon still saved over 50 people during to battle of Okinawa, even after everyone told him cruel things and bullied him over his beliefs.

The sound of the rain, as it hit our car, was like that of pins dropping on a metal surface. The intensity of the rain increased as we ventured further into the eye of the storm.

As the plush chair enwrapped me, I reviewed what I had discovered about Mrs. Johnathan Winnaford III. Born Abigale Smythe, some 60 years ago this past December, she always demanded being addressed as Mrs. Winnaford. A stern, no-nonsense woman, she rarely took no for an answer and had developed a keen interest in the occult since her sister’s death.
