The grace and base in this worldview comes from knowing that the God that created mankind has so much love for it that he sent his only son to die and bear the punishment in place of man so that man would be restored from sin and live an everlasting life with him.

differences distinguish the biblical version from the ancient version. The characters in Gilgamesh resemble those of The Bible. This starts at the very beginning of the epic with Enkidu, who resembles Adam in many different ways.

race is not whether to explore but what to possess in the Solar System first? Whether man should first colonize Mars, Venus, or Earth’s Moon is the real question for the human race because a successful first attempt would directly influence life on Earth economically and politically for generations. If a successful colonization mission can be achieved in the first attempt, it would directly result in increased funding for space programs across the globe.

In the beginning of the poem, Hopkins directs his focus on the glory of God through the lens of the world. There is then a turning point where he diverts his attention to the problems mankind inflicts upon creation. However, the closing of the poem involves him stepping back
Mankind is one of the biggest races on the Earth and with that many people, there are bound to be many mistakes. By far one of the biggest mistakes of humanity has been nuclear war and nuclear weapons. Even after copious amounts of death and destruction, mankind continues to threaten each other with these weapons of horrid violence. Some of the most notable bombings in history are the bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Now things like this may happen in the future. On August 6, 1945 the
