ten year sentence and life in the gulag. In World War I, the action of total war comes into play, which took a toll on not only the freedom of the soldiers fighting in Europe, but also the women back home who had enter the workforce. Likewise, in Dietrich Bonhoeffer's’ “Letters and Papers from Prison”, the power of the Nazi force is thoroughly conveyed throughout his papers and his fight for freedom.

W2-A1 Discussion Assignment Why do people read the Bible? Some read it for inspiration, others for information, and there are those who read it for their vocation.

For decades, the United States has embodied a sense of liberty and hope. Those who come to America have the chance to fulfill their dreams, accumulate material wealth, and live a relatively pleasant life. From the very beginning, the founding fathers claimed that it was our God-given right to pursue happiness and success. Success and happiness are only a few steps away from those who put their heads down and work hard. This idea is commonly known as “the American Dream.” Furthermore, many Christians
Human rights activist, Holocaust survivor, Nobel Peace Prize-Winner, and writer Elie Wiesel in his influential speech, “The Perils of Indifference,” emphasizes that indifference is an inhumane quality that affects the success and failure of the millennium.

In it, Orwell pointedly attacks religion in general and Christianity in particular through the use of a well placed symbolic bird by the name of Moses. Orwell's stance is rather apparent as Moses darts about the farm scene conveying the duality of Christianity quite superbly. At the first mention of the raven Moses, one immediately gets the impression that he stands
An example from Luke that shows Jesus came for the sinners is in Luke 7:44-48 it says: Then he turned toward the woman and said to Simon, ‘Do you see this woman? I came into your house. You did not give me any water for my feet, but she wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair. 45 You did not give me a kiss, but this woman, from the time I entered, has not stopped kissing my feet. 46 You did not put oil on my head, but she has poured perfume on my feet. 47 Therefore, I tell you, her
