Of all the lectures that we have had this semester‚ I think that Wednesday’s (3/29) lecture was one of the more interesting ones I’ve not only had this semester as a whole‚ but in this class as well. I say this mostly due to the whole discuss and large focus on the ritual‚ spiritual and rehabilitation that the peyote plant offers. While I watch and read my fair share of untraditional documentaries and articles‚ I have never read‚ watch or heard virtually anything about peyote. While the use of

“We cannot change the cards we are dealt‚ just how we play the hand.” -Randy Pausch The Last Lecture can teach a lot about the importance of life. Randy Pausch found out he only had so long left to live and through his last lecture and this book he shows how important it is to live every moment as it is the last because it just might be.

The idea of this lecture is to give an hour long speech that covers everything an individual would want to say if you were hypothetically dying. In spite of this‚ in Dr. Pausch’s case‚ he was literally dying with a diagnosis of terminal pancreatic cancer this being the

What I found to be particularly interesting in the lecture “Heresy Lecture Part One” was the practice of piety. As piety demonstrated an individual’s devotion to their faith by conducting religious activities on a daily basis. For devout Christians performed piety religious acts out of their own desire‚ not because they were forced to or that they were unwilling. However‚ those that did not abide by the principles of the Roman Catholic Church could be accused of heresy. For individuals that did
