She would use terms like “higher self” and spirit but never honor God has the source. Other reason why I determine her view slightly differ from mine is she didn't believe marriage was for her but she does continue as this day living with her companion Stedman Graham. Other areas that I do agree with Oprah is finding your passion and creating the life your desire to live, serving humanity by being giver and choosing the right career base on your passion. As I began to read and do research I became a little confuse with what is really Oprah's worldview is she christian or not. Also after her show she began to show more of her true-self through her life-class.

“Stretching forth the official staff in his left hand, he laid his right upon the shoulder of a young woman, whom he thus drew forward; until, on the threshold of the prison-door, she repelled him, by an action marked with natural dignity and force of character, and stepped into the open air, as if by her own of free-will,” says the narrator. (49) The official offered his hand so he could guide Hester to the scaffold. Reluctantly, Hester refused the offer. By doing this, she revealed that he has much pride in her sin. She stepped out of the prison freely into a critical crowd.
Smith drew many coincidences between Hutchinson’s role during the Antinomian controversy (the view that God's grace has freed the Christian from the need to observe established moral precepts) and powerful modern women today. The author defends her argument by vividly describing that no matter what Anne Hutchinson stated that she would be reprimanded not by what she said, but because of her gender. After reading this article one would conclude that her act of speaking were more of a crime than the words uttered. No matter how many times she would attempt to defend herself, she would not be heard unless she stated what the judges wanted her to say.

She also did not give up even though she faced many difficulties in the journey of how she made the world recognized Chicano Spanish . Marjane in “The Veil “ also shows us her strong belief in God ,and that she did not give up her dream to be a prophet , which she believed in, was a decision from God.

In the political development of New England, the Puritans influenced the region by basing the political structure on a theocratic model that enforced firm moral obedience. When the Puritan settlers founded the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1630, their leader, John Winthrop, made it his mission to create a colony that would serve as an example of the ideal society that the Puritans hoped to create (Doc A). As a result, New England produced laws that enforced the Puritans’ strict moral code. This mixture of morality into Puritan politics led to a bold response; For example, when Roger Williams called for more religious tolerance in the Massachusetts Bay Colony, challenging authority of the Puritan hierarchy (Doc F), the Puritan colonial leaders banished him in 1636. This action led to the founding the colony of Rhode Island as a safe place for religious dissidents.

Ultimately the Puritans wanted to emphasize that the Bible was the supreme law of the land as well as the only source of instructions to live by as a Christian. They wanted to establish the New World as a region free of sin.
7) The Bible is a “living, breathing document”, but it is not like the US constitution. As our nation constantly changes and evolves, the constitution represents the limits our nation abides by. Although new issues, such as healthcare and gay marriage, are dragged to the forefront of our legislation, the constitution is simply a set of guidelines our government must abide by to avoid complete anarchy.
