There is a constant battle in everyone’s mind, day in and day out of whether or not they should make decisions for their own satisfactory in the expense of others. This is otherwise known as the struggle between good and evil and is argued to be driven by temptation and sin influenced by none other than the seven princes of hell; Asmodeus, Leviathan, Mammon, Satan, Lucifer, Belphegor and Beelzebub. The battle for power is instilled in everybody and can be explicitly seen in William Golding’s work

contradiction in Equiano's character is seen in how he modifies his religious beliefs to be more aligned with the Europeans' Christianity. In chapter ten, he describes the transition that occurred in regards to his faith. Equiano started out being very critical of European Christians. “I found none among the circle of my acquaintance that kept wholly the Ten Commandments,” he states, “So righteous was I in my own eyes, that I was convinced I excelled many of them in that point,

The Extinguished Hope Imagine a single, lonely flame. Its vitality, its survival, depends on you. Now imagine the emotional commitment you have set forth to preserve this oscillating light, this sliver of hope. Now imagine that it wisps out of existence, from one moment to another. Such was what men devoted to communism, like George Orwell, author of the book Animal Farm, might have beheld when facing the despotism in Russia under the charade of communism, and such was the sight of the animals of

Surely as God creates the grandeur of life, He holds an expectation for the humans He crafts in His image. As Old Testament generations pass, the gap between expectation and reality widens, and God must establish commandments of His desire for humanity through Moses. His want is for humanity to love Him by way of obedience out of fear of His power. It is not possible for humans to fear or love God without keeping to his commandments. Therefore God’s ultimate desire for humanity is obedience, displayed

Education is what drives a society forward and what determines the direction it will go. In George Orwell’s Animal Farm, there is a huge gap between the intelligence of the pigs and most of the other animals. The author proves that with an uneducated society, a corrupt government can succeed more easily. This is demonstrated by the naivety shown through Boxer, as well as Clover’s inability to protest. Boxer, the strong workhorse, is very naïve and uneducated. This is proven by him claiming

Moses later spread the word of God. The Ten Commandments are a part of the Hebrew Bible, The Torah. The Ten Commandments is also known as The Decalogue. The Ten Commandments are only a small portion of the Torah but according to Lesley, They are the most important part (pg nbr). The Ten Commandments are listed

“...Thou shalt not bear false witness.” Have you ever heard a quote like this? Have you ever thought of what it meant? Well “...Thou shalt not bear false witness” is actually the ninth of the ten commandments stating that speaking falsely, lying or in anyway devising and designing to deceive is a sin. The adultery committed by John Proctor and the dramatic love interest of Abigail Williams are perfect examples of irony and perfectly defines the following quote. When John Proctor is asked to recite

Throughout “The Age of Reason,” Thomas Paine gives several examples for why he is opposed to Christianity. Before I began reading this essay, I was absolutely positive that I was going to disagree with every point that Paine had to make and every opinion that he expressed. It did not take long for me to realize that I had made the wrong assumption. There was more than one occasion while reading “The Age of Reason” that I discovered I actually agreed with Paine's opinion/belief. This encouraged me

The Ten Commandments, a collection of regulations set out for the Hebrew people, were said to have been delivered to Moses around the thirteenth century BCE, while he was on Mount Sinai, by the Hebrew God, Yahweh. The foundation of Hebrew morals and laws were constructed solely on the Ten Commandments, from which they then formed additional specific laws under each category of the Ten Commandments. The Hebrew people undertook these commandments with the utmost seriousness. The Hebrews firmly believed
