.... The Jewish people were forced to live in Ghetto's which were separated from the main city. Hitler's plan of genocide was carried out with efficiency. The total number of Jews exterminated has been calculated at around 5,750,000. In Warsaw ,where approximately 400,000 Jews had once been concentrated,was reduced to a population of 60,000. They, virtually unarmed, resisted the German deportation order and had held back the regular German troops equipped with flame throwers,armoured cards, and tanks for nearly a month. This heroism was similar to the revolt which took place around 165BC. This uprising was led by the Maccab .....

.... twist the facts. Their is a definite similarity between those who have power but do not have moral standards today and Aaron's sons thousands of years ago. In all these years people have not changed. Now people have technology that allows them to break laws even easier than thousands of years ago. Without pressure on law and morals, people do what they want. I WILL NOT BE ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE! There have been many individuals who are helping me to achieve this goal. My Mother and Father mostly. Also my friends and relatives. I would like to thank my Aunt Jackie and Uncle Jerry for helping with the decorations for my Bar .....

.... king or deliverer." The name Christ is the Greek equivalent of Messiah. Jesus called Peter, James, John, and other disciples to assist him with his ministry. He taught his disciples that he was sent by God to do the work of the Father. The disciples testified that Jesus was the Christ. On one occasion, Peter replied to Jesus, "And we believe and are sure that thou art Christ, the Son of the living God." (John 6:69) Jesus performed many miracles among the people of Jerusalem and the surrounding communities. He healed the sick, restored the sight of the blind, and raised the dead. Pharisees, priests, and other .....

.... draw some parallels to the more common sweat lodge ceremony. If a recurring spiritual theme appears in separate rituals, it can be considered evidence of a consistent, structured belief system. The use of smoking pipes in Native American cultures is a popular and very ancient practice. Direct predecessors of the modern pipe appear 1,500 years ago, and other less relevant pipes can be found as far back as 2,500 years ago. The distinguishing characteristic of the sacred pipe is that the bowl is separable from the long stem, and the two parts are kept apart except during ritual use. The pipe is seen as a holy object and is tre .....

.... fertile, and have increase; a nation, truly a group of nations, will come from you, and kings will be your offspring (Genesis 35:11)." In this verse of the Bible God entices his believers for the comfort of prosperity. Nonetheless, there still lies the question of the existence of a higher being. Freud might argue that the higher being exists only in men's minds. He might say that humans created him psychically out of the need for structure and protection from the superior forces of nature, Fate, and death. Voltaire might also comment on his reason for joining a religion. He might say that a higher being cannot exist because .....

.... with the group in North Carolina. During this revival that followed this merger, spontaneous speaking in tongues occurred. After searching the Scriptures, the group recognized the phenomena as a Biblical occurrence and as a new outpouring of the Holy Spirit. II. BASIC THEOLOGY AND BELIEF The Church believes in an experiential understanding of justification by faith, sanctification as a second work of grace, and the baptism of the Holy Spirit evidenced by speaking in tongues. It also believes in the restoration of both ministerial and spiritual gifts to the Church. They are believing Christians, who use the Holy Bible as the .....

.... their lives seeking money and power only because they see nothing higher."7 Followers also believed in a spiritual hunger, or the need to find themselves one with the world. In addition, they believed in "an ascending hierarchy of spiritual values rising to absolute good, truth, and beauty."8 Transcendentalists also believed in a supreme being, the Oversoul, and felt that "if the Oversoul is all powerful and at the same time good, then evil does not exist."9 Transcendentalism "appealed to the best side of human nature, confident in the divine spark in all men, and it was a clarion call to throw off the shackles of custom a .....

.... the words and consider them to be metaphors for what is really meant. The Catholics view the bible in this way. We use metaphors in this way to confront the world, and the scripture is written this way. Older myths of creation that are more primitive and ultimately closer to human nature show a more pronounced interest in humans and their immediate environment. The Bible has been shown to adopt aspects of mythical imagery. It distinguishes itself from the myths through its theological statement as taken from Bernhard Anderson, "the one God is Creator of the universe; is dependant upon no preexistent material and no assistan .....

.... his lot made him lord" (To Demeter 16- 18, 83-87). I think that these two sets of lines show that Hades viewed Persephone as a prize. Honor was one of the things Hades won when he, Zeus, and Poseidon divided up the world. Thus Hades felt justified in journeying up from the underworld to earth to claim Persephone as his bride. I feel that he felt he deserved to have her, according to his logic, because honor was something he was entitled to as a God. I feel that Hermes journey was similar to that of Hades in that he traveled in order to win honor for himself and for his Mother Maia. "A watcher by night and a gate keeper, soon .....

.... would go down there every Friday after school, and we would hit the woods as soon as we got down there to make some new trails to ride on. During the summer, there is nothing I like better than to sit back in the woods, with the sun shining through the trees, a nice cool breeze blowing, and think about stuff. You always see those Christian pictures of some proverb and then they have some nature scene in the background. I always think about that stuff when I'm in the woods. God is nature, and he is there. In a way, that also makes me feel better to. There are for sure wild dogs down there, and I've had a couple of run ins wi .....
