Pip is guilty and ashamed, as one can see from this quote.  Don't forget to provide the link if you quote it!\n\n"Pip gives Joe the final rejection when he refuses to allow Joe to accompany him to the coach for London on the day that he leaves: "I had told Joe that I wished to walk away all alone. I am afraid--sore afraid--that this purpose originated in my sense of the contrast there would be between me and Joe, if we went to the coach together" (159; ch.19). Clearly, Pip wants to leave his provincial life behind him and step into the world of property and society; he does this by literally leaving his town and ultimately rejecting Joe, who represents Pip's roots."

And the war over slavery was bloody.  how is this god the same yesterday, today and forever?\n\nslavery is not condemned as hellish, it says,\n\n" do not become slaves of men " and then " slaves, submit yourselves to your masters with all respect, not only to those who are good and considerate, but also to those who are harsh. "\n\nand how does that work out for you?  submitting to the harsh?\n\nUD:\n\nahc24- you are mad!

beautiful essay.  Nice analysis of the novel and good explanation of the latent antagonist, "fear."\n\nTo answer your question, I have a few  title suggestions for the essay. \n\nThe true "Beast" to be feared is radical imagination.\n\nA good imagination is healthy but Imagination plus fear kills.\n\nFear is a destructive Beast.\n\n\ngood luck

1.point of view :Scout narrates in the first person, telling what she saw and heard at the time and augmenting this narration with thoughts and assesments of her experiences in retrospect. Although she is by no means an omniscient narrator, she has matured considerably over the  years and often implicitly and humorously comments on the naïveté she displayed in her thoughts and actions as a young girl. Scout mostly tells of her own thoughts but also devotes considerable time to recounting and analyzing Jem’s thoughts and actions.(taken from sparknotes.com)\n2.Maycomb county\n3.The town believes that a mad person named Boo Radley lived inside.People said he went out at night when the moon was high and peeped in windows....Any stealthy crimes commited in Maycomb were his work.And so on.You are right.it was due to gossips.\n4.They thought that he once, while cutting articles out of the newspaper for his scrapbook, plunged his pair of scissors into his father's leg.Jem also believes that Boo had died and was stuffed up the chimney.And so on...\n5.It is YOUR impression....I personally don't know.\n6.The way they talk,of course...\n\n7.championship?\n\n8.You never really understand a person until you climb into his skin and walk around in it.(consider things from their point of view.)\n9.Of course.But there should be more of his type of character today.\n\n10.He wouldn't.He asks them not to torment Boo Radley.\n\n11.She is trustworthy and does not gossip like the other women in town.She is honest and upright like Atticus.

Well, obviously you missed the Beast taking out his hairy blue shlong.  I went to see it twice just for that!!!\n\n\nWhat really happened is this.\n\nIf you recall earlier in the film a lesson that is stopped abruptly when Storm creates a cloud cover.  During that lesson the class was watching a video of a man in a hospital who had no cognitive functions, that is he couldn't think.  Xavier asked the class if it was right to transport the mind of a father of four with cancer into the body of that man.  At  the end of the film Xavier inhabits this man, and so, since the cure is only temporary, leaves the film open for another sequel.\n\nMy points are,\n\nYou never see Cyclops actually die.\nThe cure is temporary so...\n  Magneto comes back\n  Mystique comes back\n  Rogue comes back\nXavier moves into another body.\nIs there any reason Jean could not do this?\n\nThey'll cash in on another one in a few years time no doubt.

Everything in opposition of the Bible drives them crazy. It's already been established that it is fiction, and not even an original piece of work as it was stolen from other writers. But some people believe that it is really possible. That's their perogrative. I have not seen the movie so I can't comment on the contents. \n\nBut I agree you really do have to wonder when someone gets that upset over something. Perhaps it's not near as strong and firm as people would like you to believe if they get that threatened by a work of fiction.

Jesus said you're blessed when things like this happen to you.\n\nI've gotten many thumbs down for answers that were scripture only.  That's when I know it's not me they are disagreeing with but God.  Why should you take on fighting God's battles for Him?  Speak the Word, and let Him handle the results.

I love that book.  Anyway, in the "Voyage to Lilliput" section, that nation is at war with Blefuscu over the proper manner to eat a hard boiled egg, obviously a trivial matter.  \n\nThere are many layers of satire in "Gulliver's Travels", and one of them here concerns the Catholic-Protestant problems which have often plagued Britain.  Swift was basically claiming that bloodshed between Catholics and Protestants over their theological differences made just as much sense as going to war over the correct way to eat eggs.\n\nI hope this helps.  "Gulliver's Travels" really is a great book, the later parts are, in my view, even better than the more famous voyages to Lilliput and Brobdingnag.

She is saying that she should have just said no. He would have accepted her rejection and not forced her to do anything she didn't want to rather than trying to convice her otherwise.\n\nInstead she resigned herself to saying yes.\n\nIt's been a long time since I read the book but I believe she's talking about agreeing to someone. That or it's something to do with taking the baby.\n\nHope this helps. There's also a section on sparknotes.com about the book -\n\nhttp://www.sparknotes.com/lit/yellowraft/\n\nwith lots more info you might be able to use.

i know this isn't really answering your question but i was kinda surprised to see what you said about "God looking like an unforgiving bully". I don't get that - He says do anything you want with this amazing garden I've given you, except one thing. If you do it, I'm going to punish you. So they do that one thing, and surprise surprise, they get punished. THEN He says, ok, so now you all do loads of stuff that goes against what i have said you should do, but I'll offer forgiveness through Jesus. That seems both pretty consistent and forgiving to me. \nSorry that doesn't answer your question, and I'm not ranting at you, just interested that you think that. I've never looked at it in that way. Hope other's answers are more on the point.\n\n\nAnd shadowalfalfa -sorry to disagree with you again, but Moses is thought to have written the first 5 books of the Bible.\n\nAn addition to my answer after your addition to your question - there is a prophecy in Daniel 7 that is entirely consistent with the acts of Alexander the Great many many many years later. There is historical evidence that Jesus existed and did many of the things the Bible says He did. So at least those things happened. Coincidence??? I don't think so.

Lincoln is describing a way to defeat your enemies.  By 'making friends' or attempting at being nice or civil with your enemies that will make them even more angry and defeat the purpose of them being mean to you. It's kind of like having a little brother. He will tease you to make you mad and respond to him. But if you act nicely back, or ignore him, then he has no point to keep bugging you if you won't ever react in the way he wants you to. The same thing can be said for Lincoln's quote.

The Oxford Annotated Bible gives the annotations for Chapter 20 of Leviticus a lead-off of "Penalties for violating the rule of the theocratic community."  The paragraph it is located in deals with various sexual relations which are prohibited and their various punishments.  To the people of the time, animals were pure property, and there was really nothing about "animal cruelty".  It also mentions that a man who has relations with both a mother and daughter, well, all three of them are to be burned to death.
