- 14133: Dioxins

- 14134: Julius Caesar 2
- ... anthony turned the crown around from brutus' speech I start with Brutus has just left Anthony alone to start his speech and had asked the crowd to stay and listen to him. If Brutus hadn t of asked the crowd to stay I don t think anybody would have listened to Anthony and would of all gone of down the road praising Brutus. Letting Anthony make his speech second was a very foolish thing to do as most people remember the second thing people say over the first, that was his first mistake. His second was leaving Anthony to make his speech unaccompanied and as Brutus hadn t checked Anthony's speech would not know what he was going to say. Anthony then started his speech almost identically as brutus only changing one word, but it made an obvious difference, and it ...

Carnival in Guyana is a one-day event, celebrating Guyana’s independence from the British. On this day people dress in bright colorful costumes and dance in the street. I remember the first time I went to the carnival. I was about seven years old when my mom took the whole family to watch the parades. I saw the brightly colored costumes, as well as everyone’s body and face covered with glitter. I heard the sweet sounds of the steelband playing and people everywhere dancing in the street. The smell of sweat was in the air as everyone bunched up ...

- 14137: Instability As A Nascent To Ty
- In William Shakespeare's Julius Caesar, Caesar was elected ruler for fear of instability and killed for fear of tyranny.

- 14138: Genetic Engineering
- ... ENGINEERING Ethical and Spiritual Issues in Genetic Engineering" The choices I will be talking about have to do with biotechnology and genetic engineering, choices which we are currently not making consciously because we really don't know what is going on. I would like to tell you what is going on in these areas, and then talk about how we might approach this matter in ethical ways. First, allow me to ... The second and third viewpoints I want to mention are both spiritual, one from the Christian tradition, the other from Buddhism.

Ted Peters, a professor at Pacific Lutheran Theological seminary, is an advocate of ... Protestants who take up the challenge of the new genetic knowledge seem to agree on a handful of theological axioms. First, they affirm that God is the creator of the world, and further that God's creative work is ongoing. Second, the human race is created in God's image. In this context, the divine image in humanity is tied to creativity. God creates, so do we. With surprising frequency, ...

- John Stuart Mill suggests that a person’s ethical decision-making process should be based solely upon the amount of happiness that the person can receive. Although Mill fully justifies himself, his approach lacks certain criteria for which happiness can be considered. Happiness should be judged, not only by pleasure, but by pain as well.

He feels Moses was a Prophet because he talked to God face to face, however he is still baffled by why Moses only saw God's back side?

Therefore, I do not doubt there is some mystery hidden here..."(p.14) This shows that Spinoza is curious and doubts Moses and his talks with God. He says that Moses is a ...
