Samuel Parris has a long and eventful history that shaped his views and actions while he was preaching in Salem Village. At the age of 20 Parris inharated his fathers sugar plantation in Barbados while he was attending Harvard (Linder “Parris” Par1). The wealth that Parris had accumulated while in Barbados was sufficient enough to support him and his new family when he moved to Boston (Par.2). Unhappy with his life as a merchant Parris decided that it was time for a change in his vocation. In 1691 he began to substitute for absent ministers and speaking at informal church gatherings (Par.3). After the birth of his third child with his wife Elizabeth Eldridge, Parris began to have formal negotiations to become the preacher for Salem Village (Par.3). The marriage of Parris and Eldridge linked him to

It is vital to acknowledge that religion and law are two complicated terms that are the foundations of life. This is in in addition to shared history that played a major part in the shaping of our contemporary world. From this, it cannot be ignored that religion and law have gone a long way in aiding the creation of identity for groups, institutional authority and the norms of the society. It is only through such teachings by Douglass that modern day society can appreciate the struggles that people such as Douglass went

New England marks the beginnings of the Baptist struggle for “religious liberty.” Baptist names such as: Roger William, John Clark, and William Screven were significant figures that advanced the cause and displayed the trials and struggle of “religious liberty.” Roger William, (who was a

“He believed in freedom of mankind and he preached it, openly, bravely, at a time when such preaching meant not merely social ostracism and political opposition, but personal danger,” was how Theodore Weld was described shortly after his death in 1859. Not only is this description true, but it highlights Theodore Weld’s passion to end slavery as a bold abolitionist. His approach to ending slavery was different from other abolitionists; Weld desired to spread education rather than accusation. This resulted in people attaining a better understanding of slavery and knowing the why of how slavery is wrong and oppressive. Weld was also very capable of lecturing and is popularly known as “one of the most fearless and powerful lecturers” , while that is true, Weld accomplished many other things that were more effective than his lecturing. Such as publishing works on slavery that inspired others to participate in the abolitionist movement and he also participated in the infamous American Anti-Slavery Society(AASS), which Weld greatly improved by implementing an agency called the Seventy within the AASS. Although Theodore Weld’s lectures were very persuasive, his published works and educational approach to spreading abolitionism is more significant due to the effectiveness in advocating and influencing his belief to a wider audience, such as Harriet Stowe and creating a lasting impact by educating the young to continue the anti-slavery movement.

When a man grows up as an untaught slave in the southern eighteenth-century, he has no other ambitions than to be free. But for Frederick Douglass, freedom was merely step one. Douglass began his life on a plantation owed from the moment he arrived. He was not destined to stay put there. Born in (what he can come close to) 1818, he began life out as a man in chains but ended up a respected wordsmith, but still apologetic for his short comings. Douglass learned how to read, write, and give speeches; he influenced a nation for changes among writers today; and he had different approaches to the era he lived in, but knew he wanted change to exist among all. These things were needed to occur in order for the slavery and African-American society to be recognized as equals among all. His wit was not small nor was his leadership not seen as defiance. Each step of his journey, brought him to a different place where he faced a challenge that could not have been met any other way, but with strength and education where he was successful in obtaining. Douglass was not only a speaker, but was an author of his time. Many colleagues wrote of him and his life even after he passed away. In Douglass’ works he spoke of his ignorance and blunders, but continued to sow his good seed. In the book “The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglas an

Fredrick Douglass was not the American Adam of the 1830s and 40s, he was black, born a slave, and was not particularly religious till his teen years. But, his stamina, drive, and devotion to becoming a freeman was everything the American Adam encompassed. Douglass, whether he knew it or not, was shaping the way future members of society conducted themselves. Influenced by the obvious American ideology of independence white man had the honor of being so gracefully handed, Douglass became focused on having many of those same rights and strove to receive them purely by his own hand, the perfect American example of self-reliance.

Before studying Douglass’ reasons for juxtaposing his Christianity to the Christianity of America, it is important to identify the differences between the two. Douglass distinguishes

His father encouraged his schooling leading to Cotton Mather entering Harvard at the age of twelve. Cotton’s views between science and Puritan beliefs lead to unscientific beliefs in miracles and witchcraft. His beliefs in witchcraft lead him to participate in the Salem witch trials which he originally supported and later in life changed his views. Mather was a great thinker of his time ranking him one of the top early American theologians.

Born on March 29, 1962, in Linden, Alabama, just 90 miles outside of Montgomery, Ralph David Abernathy Sr. was the tenth of twelfth offspring born to William and Louivery Abernathy. His family was more fortunate than most due to the fact they owned a 500 acre farm, which provided a certain measure of independence. Abernathy exhibited evidence of inheriting his father’s spiritual and leadership skills by joining the church at the age of 7 and serving in the army during World War II at the age of 18, where he quickly earned the rank of sergeant. After serving in the war, Abernathy attended Alabama state college, where his political awareness began to flourish. He was elected as president of his student council and led protests to secure suitable student living conditions and quality food in the dormitories. He then graduated with a bachelor’s degree in mathematics in 1950 and also achieved religious training by obtaining a masters degree in sociology from Atlanta University. Remaining committed to church and education, Abernathy became pastor of the First Baptist Church in Montgomery, Alabama, where he met his wife Juanita Odessa Jones and he became Dean of Men at Alabama State University at the young age of 26.

Isaac Backus was a Baptist Preacher in Massachusetts. He wrote “An Appeal to the Public for Religious Liberty”. It was a sermon that was written in 1773. During the Great Awakening Movement, he joined the Christianity religion. He was one of the most important people speaking and advocating for religious freedom. Isaac Backus spoke out against the government’s Congressional Church’s. The government required other churches to pay taxes that went to support their Church. He wanted Church and government separate. He advocated for individuals to have a choice in all religious matters. Backus found it very offensive that the colony governments were forcing people to pay taxes. He sees it as an offense against religious freedom. He created

My group and I have been investigating William Henry Brisbane 's journal together since September. Since then, we have discovered vivid details of his life, especially in his relationships with Anna, his children, and his slaves. Tom Meyer, Kim, Brian, Jacqui, Tom Trevor and I have conquered through the entries to find information that is worth sharing regarding Cincinnati 's history. Within this group project, my role was to dive into slavery and Brisbane 's attitude on the topic. In this, I found out about a man who was born into a slaveholding family and left this world known as a devout Baptist and abolitionist.

History books have told us time and time again, slavery was one of the most despicable acts of crime humanity has ever created. We took our own; we beat them, humiliated them, and lowered their life to be less than an animal’s. Unlike several others, Frederick Douglass’ escape was through the means of education, but his education required a fight like no other, a fight to destroy the demon preventing him from freedom. In the excerpts of his book, his struggle for a life worth living is quite obvious; these chapters enunciate the power of education, the effect of too much power, and how truly devilish the act of slavery actually was.

Benjamin Franklin came from a very simple Calvinist background. Ha dad little formal education, but he made it through his own efforts and became a rare genius in human history. Everything seems to meet in this one man, mind and will, talent and art, strength and ease, wit and grace and he became almost everything: a printer, essayist, scientist, statesman, philosopher, political economist, ambassador, etc.-¡°Jack of all trades¡±.

Carl Rogers was born January 8, 1902 in Oak Park, Illinois, the fourth of six children. His education started in the second grade because he could already read before kindergarten. He spent his adolescence isolated, independent and self-disciplined. He went to the University of Wisconsin as an agriculture major, but later switched to religion to study for the ministry. He has been quoted as saying “that his new experiences so broadened his thinking that he began to doubt some of his basic religious views.” (Boeree) Carl Rogers later married Ms. Helen Elliot and moved to New York to start school at the Union Theological Seminary, a famous liberal religious institution.

Industry Analysis: Cadbury Schweppes (CS) is comprised of a global confectionery and beverage company. For the purpose of this case we will maintain our focus on the confectionery business and the assessment of adding to their sugar confectionery portfolio. CS is number three in the beverage business but see the opportunity to become the largest confectionery in the world. The categories are chocolates, sugar and chewing gum. At this time Adams is the number two sized in the gum business. This industry operates on “bigger is better in confectionery”. Their strategic discussions and ambitions appear to stay true, in mentality, to this mantra. This mantra could be potentially dangerous to the business. CS had a presence in over 70
