    David and Goliath: The Tale of Poetry The utility of poetry has been debated for thousands of years; around 2,500 years ago Plato called for it to be banned for its lack of utility.

If there were an apocalypse in the future, and we could select only a few people to survive it, the poet would

    The raising of Lazarus is singlehandedly the most significant religious experience in the Christian faith. It exists as the most apparent example of Jesus’s power over nature; it displays Jesus’s compassion and divinity, and foreshadows the death and resurrection of Jesus.

Lazarus was extremely ill, so Jesus waited for him to die so he could revive him

    Whiteford and Gonzalez (1995) use the metaphor of an emotional roller coaster to describe the process of coping with infertility. 'Coping' itself can be defined as the efforts an individual makes to deal with a stressor (Lazarus & Folkman, 1984). Many attempts have been made to define coping and to measure it systematically; however, to date there has been little consistency among studies in terms of the way in which coping has been considered (Skinner et al., 2003).
