It is this being so tangled in you” (11-12) in the ancient Egyptian love song called “Love of you is mixed deep in my vitals” because the writer also conveys the same message. Overall, both modern and ancient artists exemplify situations of mature love since each need their lover in their lives to feel complete. Immature love is a situation where a person loves the idea of having “love” causing it to be an unrealistic desire. “Been here all along so why can't you see? You belong with me” (12-13) quoted from Taylor Swift’s song “You Belong with Me”, describes her desperation for her crush by trying to persuade him that she is the one for him.
The Screwtape Letters is a book about C.S. Lewis’ insight into the human mind from the perspective of two demons, Screwtape and Wormwood. Screwtape sends his nephew, Wormwood, words of advice on how to stray the “Patient” away from the “Enemy” and towards “The Father Below”. Lewis had to put himself in the place of the elder demon, Screwtape, as an experienced tempter for Christian men. The Screwtape Letters is a book that uses Christian morals and values and takes the opposite side of them to try and condemn a young man to an afterlife in Hell.
I have no tongue for it.” Proctor confesses to witchcraft yet refuses to incriminate others. Although the confession in the context of the play refers to witchcraft, it can be inferred that he is referring to his affair with Abigail; he is accepting his fault in the matter, and wishes not to point the finger at another. The theme of people can use the idea of virtue and piety to advance a selfish or malevolent agenda is carried out in this action. Abigail Williams quoted, “I want the light of God, and I want the sweet love of my Jesus. I danced for the devil; I saw him, I wrote in his book; I go back to Jesus; I kiss his hands.
The poem’s theme appears to be about unrequited love and a man wooing his “coy mistress” to sleep with him, but this poem does has a deeper meaning, which is really impressive and therefore is striking. The theme of mortality is highlighted in this poem through word choice and by using imagery which reinforces the idea of death. Words relating to death such as “ ashes” and “grave” are used to emphasise the lack of time that we have and the stark contrast between the slow, idyllic first stanza and the sped up, heavier second stanza shows the difference between the idealistic eternity and the reality that we are all mortal and have to die at some point. Another deeper theme introduced is the idea of “carpe diem” which is shown through the lustier language in the poem, word choice such as “time devour”, and also through the quickened pace of the second stanza. The speaker is not simply asking the “coy mistress” to sleep with him, what he is saying is if there was all the time in the world then life would be ideal but there is not so they have to live for the moment.
Similarly, in ‘Tis Pity She’s a Whore, the male character Giovanni asserts his power over Annabella, but Ford does this in the opposite way that Chaucer did. Giovanni is fresh out of university, and during the 1600s logical and manipulative arguments were taught, so he uses his intelligence to lie to Annabella that he ‘asked counsel of the holy Church’, as he knows she is only worried about their love due to her religious beliefs. This shows Ford presenting males, usually the more educated gender of the time, as having the ability to have power over females by arguing using
Response #1 According to ex-nihilo “good is present in all things.” There is nothing that is created that is apart from God. So everything that is created has God’s fingerprints. Rowan Williams says that, “each one of us is already in relationship with God before we’ve ever thought about it. It means that every object or person we encounter is in a relationship with God (Pg. 35).” God designed every organism and every person; and if this organism is living then God is living in it.
Tom Walker’s journey to the Indian fort signifies the easy path to eternal damnation due to pride. 3. The devil represents temptation: to make a pact with the daemon is to be condemned. Through the short story The Devil and Tom Walker, Washington Irving satirizes the new emerging American society of nineteenth century since this civilization begins to draw faraway from basic Puritan transgressions such as: greed, pride, and temptation. This story becomes an allegory of a situation that could happen to those who refuse to live fearful of God and Puritan religion using symbolism as a way to exemplify such allegory.
Life is sacred, and I will do all in power to preserve it, while maintaining the comfort of my patients.

Through the novel, The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne, the reader learns that the Puritan religion looks down on sinning and punishes sinners harshly. Through several examples throughout the text, the reader can conclude that Hawthorne did not agree with the Puritans’ attitude toward sin. Hawthorne uses satire throughout the novel to make fun of the Puritan views. The main character of the novel is Hester Prynne, who is found cheating on her husband. As a result, she is forced to wear a sewn scarlet “A” on her clothing.
We can also discern the true Shepherd's through their teachings about the incarnation of Christ and deity of our Lord Jesus. Our Saviour advised us "by their fruit you will recognize them. "(Matthew 7:20). If someone is not providing teaching based on Jesus Christ's theology then he is proving himself false. Satan and his minions have corrupted the minds of those people who listen to his deceptive ideas so as to continue their hell-based schemes.
