The reason I choose to write my paper on early Christianity is because of my faith and belief in God and my relationship with Him. Anything that will help me learn more about Him I find interesting. The three key points in this paper I will address are the contrast and similarities between Judaism and early Christianity.

Does humanity triumph over evil? Based on The Stanford Experiment‚ an experiment where twenty four undergraduates were put in a prison‚ taking on the roles of prisoners and guards‚ it clearly shows that humanity does not triumph over evil (YouTube‚ 2005).

The "good" guards also did not stop the "evil" guards from

Bret Harte’s short stories convey the idea that nature and humanity reflect one another. Nature and humanity can be both welcoming and ominous. Humanity‚ like a storm‚ can be suddenly raging. Both can push you out of a place into something you’ve never expected to face‚ or into a better place. They can both be calm and gentle at times; and they both have the potential to end. In The Outcasts of Poker‚ Flat Bret Harte has an excellent portrayal of nature reflecting a communities actions. As the

I believe that I believe that Shakespeare intended a speech for his audience that exalted humanity. Shylock spoke about humanity and held it at a high regard defending that being a Jew does not make you less as a human than a Christian. In his speech Shylock exalts humanity instead of speaking of it in a cynical or sarcastic manner. In his speech such Shylock did not use sarcasm whatsoever when comparing a Jew to a Christian. “ If you prick us‚ do we not bleed? If you tickle

Paul’s statement is aimed at addressing the main issue that both Jews and Greeks have a hard time with and that is Jesus’ humanity. The Jews cannot believe that God would take on human flesh and then submit to crucifixion and death because this would be seen as a denial of God’s omnipotence and immutability. The Greeks‚ on the other hand‚ could not believe that God would become incarnate because‚ to them‚ heaven is the ideal place since that is where all the forms exist. Human life for the Greeks
