Insights from the Handout

I think no one excused from experiencing grief. It is normal like what the handout says. We cannot escape this feeling because it comes naturally since we are rational human being capable of feeling and understanding. I believe that we all need to cry when we experience pain. Others cry for several different reasons. Among them includes physical and emotional pain. People also cry when they are frustrated or disappointed or unable to express what they feel. Crying, however, does not constitute to weakness. Contrary to the cliché men don’t cry, everyone is allowed to cry. ...

Quran and bible are the sacred books of Muslims and Christians respectively. Many important aspects become visible when they are read in detail. From the Koran’s excerpts, the most surprising finding for me is that there is no discrepancy in this holy book. Koran openly challenges all to find and make similar book if you have any doubt in it (Peters). Moreover, it is also surprising to me that God has taken the responsibility of Koran’s protection Himself and has mentioned that “I have revealed this Holy book and I will protect it”, that is why, it ...

BEING COURAGEOUS IN GOD

The story of Gideon can be, at first, marked by fear and doubts. Apparently, Gideon was found hiding in the winepress, trying the thresh wheat. Gideon was a weak and fearful person. He was afraid of the Midianites who kept plundering their crops during harvest. Nevertheless, God chose him to be His instrument in delivering the Israelites from these enemies. Indeed, God delights in choosing unlikely candidates for His work. Being a woman, I am faced with a social thinking of the inferiority and weakness of women.

Even in the ministry, I tend to wonder if I am really ...

Isaac sacrifice vs. Iphigenia

Most of us are familiar with the story of Abraham and Isaac from the bible. In contrast, many may not be acquainted with the Greek myth of Agamemnon. This is the brief recap of the two stories: in the old testament of the bible, God commands Abraham to sacrifice his only son that he got at an older age after God had promised him. It is a paradox story in that the same God who blessed Abraham and Sarah with the child is the same God that wants Abraham to sacrifice Isaac his child. Abraham obeys God but in ...

Introduction

In today’s hectic lifestyles, it is common for people to experience circumstances that are very difficult to handle. No individual is immune to challenges and it is these problems that enable people to grow and mature. The manner in which people deal with these problems differs markedly.

The American Counseling Association’s mission is to improve the societal quality of life through enabling professional counselors to develop, ...

Section A - Asking the Right Questions (1 Thessalonians 5)

In Thessalonian, five verse eight, the bible talks of wearing the breastplate of faith and love and a helmet of the hope for salvation. It is telling as to be prepared like a soldier. A soldier in battle is always armed and ready for the enemy to attack, he does not lay his weapons aside. As Christians, we should also be ready for the coming of the Lord, for like a thief or an enemy. He may come at any time. The bible says we should fast and pray and be like the five wise girls so that when ...

Oneida Community is an 1848 community that had diverse ideologies on the return of Jesus. John Humphrey Noyes is the founder of the community and believed that he possessed divine authority over the Oneida Community, which was directly given to him by God. This belief got support from the public, hence allowing him to rule the people of the community (Foster, 2009 p 35). It was controversial to abide by the rule that entitled Noyes the duty of giving birth to a child to serve as a birth control strategy.

The other major controversial issue was the mutual criticism ...

1. What are the “stages of social development” that Finkelstein and Silberman suggest are necessary for the Pentateuch to have been written.

Archeologists contend that the bible is such a complex book that it could not have been written during the primitive times described in Genesis and other early stories. As a consequence, bible scholars are questioning the authenticity of Biblical stories in terms of where and when the stories were written. It is plausible that the Bible as we know it is the literary product of scribes and other writers of a period in history when it was ...

PART 1: Reflection on Writing Process and Commitment  One of the most important things I have learned from doing peer review on other classmates' essays and the feedback process is the importance of constructive criticism. I have not had many instances of non-constructive feedback in this class, to be fair, but I have also learned how to give it. I sometimes tend to find myself getting slightly aggravated at the occasional spelling or grammar error, but for the most part I have learned to temper my own high-strung nature and provide criticism that addresses the issue without placing a ...

Mergers are a common occurrence in healthcare. The ultimate goal of this is to create more value through a greater share in the market, increased productivity at lesser operational costs, lesser taxes or cross selling (Terjesen, 2009). Mergers can be friendly or hostile; the former is welcomed while the latter is often met with resistance by the management of the company to be acquired. In the process, hard (financial) and soft (culture and human resource) issues need to be addressed. Studies note that a majority of mergers are unsuccessful in the sense that no real value is created. This ...

The switch to steam power led to the movement of factories away from the big cities, like London. Instead, locations close to water –out of which steam power is generated- and coal fields, another necessary ingredient for steam power, were preferred.

Several institutions developed in both France and England in the 13 and 14th century and these institutions were behind the civilization of western countries. The first institution was the church. Many crusades were made in these countries facilitating the spread of Christianity. When church became an institution in these countries, leadership became a major issue and specifically the catholic leaders became too much involved in political affairs. They controlled monarchy in England that had a lot of power (Noble, 156).

Schools are some of the other institutions that were very important during the period. Many people got their education ...

As a student at Humber College, I usually use the computers at the lab quite often. I do this to check my mail and research on class work. The labs have Pentium three computer, the operating systems that run on these computers are archaic.

I believe that among all careers available today, those dealing directly with people are the hardest. Although it seems so easy to communicate with human creatures, it is actually a tough task to accomplish. The problem is you cannot get into other person’s mind and retrieve the information you need, you can never fully understand what their intentions are, finally, you never know what to expect as a reaction to your words.

In the early 1800s, Neoclassical writing was par for the course; works were typically very restrained, conservative, and focused on structure more than anything else. However, as the 19th century rolled along, more and more authors (including Washington Irving and

James Fenimore Cooper) found themselves writing stories of passion, full of experimentation and discovery. In these works, notions of established language and literary structure were challenged, as the Romantics ceased believing in the established systems of literature and created wholly new works that were free from restraint. While the works of Smith demonstrate the observational, dry and formal writing ...

Every organization fosters its own leaders, each with individual leadership styles. According to Kurt Lewin, these leadership styles could be classified into three categories, of which the best is considered to be the democratic style. Even if there are leaders that come very close to one of the three styles identified by Lewin, I believe that some leaders could be combining the styles or slightly deviating from them in their work. This paper aims to explore my past experience in order to indentify a real life case of leadership and compare it to one of the leadership styles formulated ...

How did the bison survive the Ice Age and come to populate the Great Plains in such great numbers?

In order to survive this period the bison traversed the plains of North America in search of safer grounds. In addition to this, the bison’s reproduction at rate that was considerably high served to guarantee its survival even in the face of difficult times in which many other animals died.

"Despite the usual connotations of the word “criticism,” literary criticism is called criticism not because it is negative or corrective but rather because those who write criticism ask searching, analytical, "critical" questions about the works they read. Literary criticism is both the process of interpreting and commenting on literature and the result of that process."

This passage from the textbook gave me a new way to think about the word “criticism.” I always thought of criticism as a way to talk about what is wrong with something, but the textbook says it is not limited to negative remarks. It ...
