.... involved of interest rates. Interest rates are indirectly proportional to the activity in the stock market. This means that when the interest rates fall the market for securities becomes active. This is due to the fact that people want the highest yield on there money and when interest rates are low, investing money into a bank would yield less money then it would have before at a higher interest rate. So people tend to want to put there money into something that will give them a higher yield and stocks are just that. An example of this inversely proportional relationship is always being demonstrated and was demonstrated in the past few years. At the end of 1992 to the ....


How Do We Know If God Exists
1371 Words - 5 Pages

.... While disproving an argument is a good thing, it has gotten us nowhere and we have been left without a positive answer to the question. In a sense, all someone does about the existence of God is split hairs and cause more frustration in their thinking. But what are the arguments that have been presented? For without these, we are unable to draw conclusions ourselves. Maybe these argument provide adequate proof for some people. As such, we will take a look at some of the more noteworthy argument, on both sides, and briefly analyze them. First off is the ontological argument. An ontological argument for the existence of God attempts to include the definition of the concept o ....


Viking Sailing Ships
307 Words - 2 Pages

.... woolen sail for power. On rivers, rowers powered the ship. A Viking warship had between fifteen to over thirty pair of rowers. Not all Viking ships were war ships. Some were used to carry livestock or large cargoes of other merchandise to trade. They carried a crew of fifteen to twenty men. These ships were deep and wide and fifty- four feet long. They sailed through the ocean mostly by the sails and not much by rowers. Early Viking navigators depended on the sun and the stars, but by the 900's they developed a system to figure out which direction they were sailing. They made a table of figures with the sun's midday height for each week of the year, with using a ....


Socrates
668 Words - 3 Pages

.... thought that Socrates poisoned the minds of children. Causing them to lose respect for parents and elders. It was said that he did not believe in conventional gods either. This is shown by Strymon on pp. 181 and 182, "I imagine the in your own circle of friends, what we have heard is nothing out of the way. Where the teacher (Socrates) does not even worship the immortal gods, but sets the aside for his new divinities, one can hardly expect in the pupil much reverence for age and kinship in mere men." Parents blamed the lack of respect for elders on Socrates. In truth Renault says that he was only giving them guidance so that they may guide themselves and be free of p ....


Christmas Satire
597 Words - 3 Pages

.... appreciate the hard work and thought put into each gift. At night mothers, fathers, brothers and sisters would curl beside a blazing fire and watch a classic Christmas movie called, "It's a Wonderful Life". This is what the true spirit of Christmas should be. The Christmas of the present is not what it used to be. What once was a delightful, Christmas caroling time is now a chaotic, screaming in someone's face nightmare. Relatives avoid each other for fear of actually reliving bad childhood family moments. Children still run around the house clamoring over presents, but not from under a nice smelling pine tree, but from an aluminum death trap waiting to fall over and spi ....


The Question Of An Answer: What It Is To Be Human
1871 Words - 7 Pages

.... I do not believe that there is one defined answer to these questions. As you will see, many "great philosophic minds" have different views and beliefs relating to these questions, and it is my job to sort through these different beliefs and discover...... What it is to be human It seems that for ages the human body has been studied and inspected. However, literal "inspection" only takes us so far. As humans, we all know that there are parts of our "being" that are intangible. Take thoughts, dreams, and things of the like. We know they exist, yet they are unable to be inspected scientifically (to any valuable degree at least). The distinction between beliefs begins here ....

.... word man but it will include woman too. That what make man different from other creatures. In the Garden of Eden He says to them. "You may freely eat of every tree of the garden: but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you will eat of it you shall die." From this passage we find out about two more thing that what make man different from other creature and they had before they were expelled.

Second is that man didn't possess knowledge, that make man different from God. Another aspec ....


The Color Purple
1017 Words - 4 Pages

.... things, but they were women too! Females were oppressed almost as bad as the blacks. White women were not able to vote until the 1920. Therefore colored women had a double edged sword, they had to fight for freedom, but not be to dominate as to effect the men. Alice Walker's is a good example of colored women's plight. Three obstacles black women had to overcome to be able to express themselves were Racism, the lack of education, and the stereotype that women are inferior. The book is about a black girl, Celie, who gets molested by her father and has two children. Both children are taken away and she is told they are dead. Then she gets bargained off to this man, Mr ....
