Post 21: Beauty in your Life

                                                           Beauty in your Life

              You came to me wrapped  in a blanket,

               Smile sweet so it lighten the room.

               As family smiles are exchange with the first view of you,

                To capture that special moment of me giving birth to you

                I sit back viewing the room of the happiness that brought upon us    

 

Post 19: Dante's concept of Hell

Dante's concept of Hell is considered the 9 circles of Hell. 1st: resided by virtuous non-Christians and unbaptized pagans who are punished with eternity in an inferior form of Heaven.
      2nd: resided with people that were overcome by lust.
      3rd: resided with gluttons who are overlooked by a worm-monster Cerberus
      4th: resided with people are punished for greed
      5th: resided wrathful and sullen are punished for their sins
      6th: heretics who are condemned to eternity in flaming tombs
      7th: this circle is divided into three rings

Post 20: Should Socrates be in Hell

Socrates shouldn't be in Hell. The reason for my decision is because he wasn't afraid of  death. Throughout the apology Socrates insists that death is not bad. As he says," The fear of death amounts simply  thinking one is wise when one is not." He came up with two ways that it might be: either death is to be nonexistent, or something happens to the soul upon death and it is transformed or goes to another world. So regardless of what I think may happen with Socrates soul he was afraid of death

Post 18: View of Jesus presented in the Qu'ran

Qu'ran shows connections to Jewish and Christian biblical characters and stories.

"O you who have believed, do not violate the rites of God or [the sanctity of ] the  sacred month or[neglect the making of] the sacrificial animals and garlanding [them] or [violate the safety of] those coming to the  Sacred House seeking bounty from their Lord and [His] approval. But when you come out of ihram, then [you may] hunt.

Post:17 Comparing and Contrasting the Qur'an and New Testament

Comparing both Qur'an and the New Testament, where they both believe in one true God.
Polygamy(having more than one wife) is allowed but limited in Islam.

Holy Qur'an 4:3..... marry such women as seem good to you, two or three and four; but if you fear that you will not do justice (between them), then(marry) only one or what your right hands possess.

Christians believe that God rests and sleeps, but Muslims believe that God doesn't need to rest nor sleep.

Post 16: Personal example and High ideals

High government officials should lead by high ideals because that gives them the opportunity to collaborate with others in their party. Coming together as one deciding on issues that could affect the country takes more than just one person's view of the situation. If the government official or any higher power person went off of their personal example it become destructive. By me saying that it would only disable them to fully process the situation at hand, personal example could be if they had problems with a person or thing in the pass that would make the situation a bias choice.

Post 15: Assessing the role of the U.S. President

There is only one President of the United States and the President fills numerous roles all at one time.

1. Chief of state
2. Chief executive
3. Chief administrator
4. Chief diplomat
5. Commander in chief
6. Chief legislator and many more

Socrates believed that government worked best when ruled by individuals who had the greatest ability and knowledge.

Confucius believed that a leader needed to exercise self-discipline

in order to remain humble and treat his followers with compassions.

Basically a President should have some what of a sensitive side to understand what the peoples are going through and get a good understanding of the issues of the world and the President that showed great role was Mr. Barack Obama.

Post 14:Exploring the role of Gods in war both Ancient and Modern

In most countries across the world like Syria, Palestine, and Israel and many other countries the war were either fought over land or religions. Most people believe that Christian character, moral, values and integrity are what keeps the peace. The world will always have work around God, I feel as though if everyone would mind their own business then the world would be a better place.

Post 13: Addressing the justness of the US wars in Syria, Iraq, and Afghanistan

In my opinion there should be no wars breaking out amongst the United States and other countries. "The U.S. military and intelligence services have waged a prolific counterterrorism campaign to suppress threats to America. It is often argued that no longer scale plot has been successful in the U.S. since 9/11 that was the risk of such an attack is overblown."(Joscelyn).

The 9/11 attack left a lot of unanswered questions to this day why, and what may have triggered the outcome for the attackers to think about choosing the United States as being the target.
