Another is that strict parents yield children who are more self-disciplined and more self-reliant. The third is that the father’s job is to deliver rewards for “good” behavior and negative ...

Introduction: A Theological Mystery That Jesus Christ is God and, in the same time, man is an idea many people do not believe in.

Capital punishment has become a basis for serious conflict in the modern world, because it does not provide freedom to experience the grace of God for the criminals involved.

Introduction

When the Commonwealth of Australia was declared, it was heralded that this move would usher in a new era of prosperity, especially for the inhabitants of the expansive country.

Unlike other colonial territories under British rule, for instance Canada and New Zealand where land treaties were signed before their land was taken for colonial occupation, the occupation ...

The death penalty in the United States is absolutely a complicated idea – the notion of sending someone to death for their crimes is considered, by many, to be an outdated notion that was thrown out along with the stockade. At the same time, there is still a great deal of public support for the policy as a means of deterring crime. When contemplating the prison costs and the problems present in the criminal justice system, it becomes a bit more obvious that the death penalty is not a economic or even moral idea. Because of the divided amount of support for the death penalty, ...

The death penalty in Texas has long been a controversial issue – the idea of putting someone to death for their crimes is thought, by some, to be an antiquated idea that went out with the stocks. However, there is still significant public support for the measure as a deterrent.
