Christ’s return is unknown and kept that way because people would live like hell right up until that last minute and repent and change to God. Also the bible says that Christ will return like a thief in the night. A robber comes and takes what he wants when you are there and you can [...]

Are Patriarchs and matriarchs good role models?
In my personal opinion patriarchs are and they are not good role models. The definition of a patriarch is a man that rules a family, clan, or tribe. I believe that it easier for one person to rule rather that more than one. For example what that [...]

This course was actually pretty good and informative. It really made me think about a lot of things. It challenged my faith, church doctrine, and ability to think critically about spiritual things. I learned a lot about biblical principles and the background of Christianity and Judaism. I learned a lot of interesting biblical facts and [...]

Mayor Nagin,
As you already know, about a year and a half ago, New Orleans was devastated by hurricane Katrina. Although the city is rebuilding and making progress, there is still a major issue that remains untouched; mental rebuilding.
Mental health has for many years been passed [...]

This class has definitely been an interesting one. I have learned a great deal about the Bible that I had not known before, things that actually contradict some of my religious teachings. And I do not think that this class is meant to convert in any way, it just gives the facts about the Bible [...]
