  • Christian Bible
    1,521 words
    Christianity is a religion in which events are claimed to have occurred but which can never be proved. Those who practice it live by different morals than are preached by the most holy texts. It is an institution in which the most holy scripture is contradictory, and wherein the supreme being, by the very definition, cannot exist. Christianity is, therefore, a fundamentally flawed religion. According to the Bible, events which are even more miraculous than of Jesus Christ. Events such as the sto...

From the Crusades to the Inquisitions of Spain, violence is ever prevalent. Even in this day and age, intolerance and violence continue to be preached. But is this violence an instrument of God or man? Is violence an inherent part of this religion? Some would say that it is indeed built in to the very fabric of its being. The Old Testament is full of the smiting of infidels an...

  • Christian Religion
    974 words
    The Christian religion, whether they realize it or not, promotes hatred against all non-Christians by subjecting us to their belief of " Eternal Fire and Torment' if we do not believe in their god. This God of Fire whom they promote is obviously the self-fulfilled prophecy of the Beast. The Bible was correct about that symbolic title concerning the church, but by now we should realize that there is a beast in all of us. Are the Christians evil for believing in a god of such evil works No, their ...

  • Their Pagan Ways And Gods

    The Sale of Christianity When reading Beowulf, one must carefully consider the time era with which it is associated with. Consider, if you will, a life that has been based upon numerous fictitious Gods and Goddesses. Your life was truly fated to be whatever the Gods wanted it to be, anything could be blamed on, fate.

  • God Of Evil In The New Religion
    926 words
    Horned gods were worshipped in Europe and the rest of the world from the dawn of humanity. They were always part of a pagan belief system, a polytheistic belief system, which accepted many gods. Tribal pagan belief systems still in existence share this characteristic: the tribes worship their tribal gods, and other gods mentioned by strangers are not evil, or non-existant, they are simply not their gods. There were many ancient monotheistic religions such as Judaism, but again these were tribal ...
  • Christianity Of Beowulf
    560 words
    Beowulf dates back to around the eighth century, during which Christianity was not a prevalent religion. As Magill states, whether the Christian elements are intrinsic or are interpolations by a tenth century monastic scribe is controversial.

It is in the prologue in which the story of Shild and the beginnin...

  • Marlowe's Tamburlaine
    1,757 words
    In the fall of 1587, the historical drama of a little-known Cambridge graduate took London by storm. Although he was but twenty-three years of age, Christopher Marlowe seemed to have embodied the spirit of the Renaissance in his work Tamburlaine the Great.
