The two most important factors responsible for fueling the movement toward drug regulations in the 20th century were that patent medicines were abused and the associated drug use with minority groups (Levinthal, 2012). With little or no restrictions on drugs by any government agency, patent medicines had a broad definition and were distributed in various ways. Interestingly, the medicines were a far cry from today's medicines as there were no restrictions that required all of the ingredients to be listed on the container the medicine was distributed in. Furthermore, a popular trait was the traveling medicine show that included a "pitch man", whose responsibility was sale his patent medicines (Levinthal, 2012). As the traveling medicine shows became more popular and more drugs were sold, the number of drug-dependent Americans grew and resulted in the establishment of the Pure Drug and Trade Act of 1906, of which made it a requirement to list ingredients on all medicines distributed (McBride, VanderWaal, & Terrry-McElrath, 2002).

There are many commandments in America. Most of them are very important in our society. Some are written rules, and some are unwritten. They go from not stealing to saying bless you. All Americans should follow these seven commandments to show that they have respect and manners.

Some do not believe in evolution simply because of religion. As Catholics we believe God made everything out of nothing. We do not think things evolved from other things. For example: we do not believe we evolve from monkeys, or that monkeys are our ancestors. Pope Francis said the Roman

In Arthur Miller’s novel The Crucible we perceive the town of Salem, a land of peace, turn to a place of destruction. This town was a haven of religious freedom from Britain. In this new world, people were expected to be flawless and commit no sin. Unfortunately, with this community being based purely on the Bible these townsfolk could not commit to such particular laws. This town was on the brink of destruction and a simple lie turned everything upside-down.

Another religion in which the Ten Commandments is abided by is Protestant Christian. The Protestant Christians in this category consist of Greek, Anglican, and Reformed Christians. The Christians decided to validate which of the 613 mitvots were necessary to abide by. They came to the conclusion that out of all of the mitvots, the Ten Commandments were the only ones of importance. The Jews accused the Christians of just picking whichever laws they wanted to abide by (Smith, 2). The Protestant Ten Commandments is very similar to the Jewish version. They have the same commandments however slightly differ in the way they are worded. The first four commandments relate to god whereas the last six relate to humans.

The rights of the physically and mentally disabled and discrimination against them are part of the 5th commandment. The CCC also states, “Those whose lives are diminished or weakened deserve special respect. Sick or handicapped persons should be helped to lead lives as normal as possible.” Below are a handful of facts and statistics about the Americans with Disabilities Acts and just people in us with mental and physical disabilities. The facts also address the discrimination towards those with disabilities.

Since the beginning of human civilization, there continues to be a strong relationship between the state and their chosen religious institution. According to an interpretation of an anecdote of Thomas Jefferson, “He didn’t say he say he believed in the Christian God; he evaded that point. But Jefferson did agree with what all his colleagues in the founding thought that a people cannot maintain liberty without religion” (Novak, M., 2006). While the relationship is inevitable as it is used to unify a population, true government should seek as diminished a relationship as possible. While religious freedom is essential to what America was founded on, it cannot infiltrate our governmental systems

The most important of these written documents is the Hebrew Bible. This bible is composed of the Torah, Nevi’im and Ketuvim, and these three components combine to make up the Tanakh (Simmons, 83). The Torah is the core of the Hebrew Bible and contains the story of creation, as well as directions on daily conduct and religious rituals. The Nevi’im contains the stories of prophets. The prophets were people who spoke on behalf of God to the Jewish people. Lastly, the Ketuvim is composed of mostly imaginative literature such as psalms, proverbs and poetry (Molloy, 294). Shifting the focal point from

Although it can be tempting to break one of these laws, I believe that as long as I keep my faith with God and abide by these laws, I won’t have to doubt my future salvation. The Ten Commandments are significant to me because they

The movie the author would like to critique is probably one of the greatest movies of all time. The movie is The Ten Commandments, starring Charlton Heston, Yul Brenner, and Cecil B. DeMille. If the author were a real critic like Gene Siskel, and Roger Ebert, she would give this movie two thumbs up. The author will probably be giving her, interpretation of this movie all the way through this paper because she feels that in order to understand what’s being critiqued you have to understand the movie. Of course this is a movie that the author has seen a number of times, and every time she views it she finds something that

A poem is often defined as an art form used to express yourself, which evokes emotion in its reader. However, there are poems with another purpose besides making the audience feel something. Some poems are used to educate, inspire, or give advice to it’s readers. Two poems that offer excellent advice about how to live life happily and successfully are “If” by Rudyard Kipling and “The Paradoxical Commandments” by Dr. Kent M. Keith. Rudyard Kipling, the author of “If” and Dr. Kent M. Keith, the author of “The Paradoxical Commandments” give both similar and different advice, but this advice is directed at two different audiences because of the way it is presented in the poems.

As I reflect on the years that I have worked in Higher Education, my passion and dedication in the field has been driven towards experiencing the growth and development of students. My tenure in the field began at a Historically Black College and University in which also happened to be my Alma Mata. Now 10 years later, I would never imagine that I would still be working in a position to help cultivate and develop the minds of our future leaders. My career thus far has allowed me to work at a Community College, where I have taken a keen interested in the leadership involved in Higher Education. This interest has allowed me to continue my education as a part of the Morgan State University, Community College Leadership Doctoral program.

The Law of Moses, or Moses’s Law refers to the first five books of the Hebrew Bible, sometimes call the Pentateuch, or Torah which is a central reference of Judaism. Of the covenants found in the Pentateuch are Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy. These books contained the laws and instruction given by the Lord to Moses which establishes Israel as a nation. All five of the books are believed to be written by Moses himself, with the exception of Deuteronomy. There is controversy as to who did complete Deuteronomy as it could have not been completed by Moses in its entirety, because it tells the story of his death. While it is evident that the books of the Bible were written from Deuteronomy to Revelation, the agreement, or Covenant with God originates here with the Law of Moses.

Incorporating religious education into the public school curriculum was once a main staple of American education. School days started with prayer and students were taught about religious influences as it pertains to American history. The constitutional views on the separation of church and state and the 1962 court case where the United States Supreme Court decided that teaching religion in public schools violated the First Amendment by constituting an establishment of religion caused Americans thoughts on including religion in public schools to change. Without religious education comes religious ignorance and with religious ignorance comes religious intolerance. Religious intolerance is a huge problem in the United States right now with prejudice and misunderstandings, sometimes leading to violence, happening between U.S citizens of different religions. Religious education should be taught in public schools because it will allow for a positive impact on religious tolerance.
