...The Sermon on the Mount, Christ says that “You shall not commit adultery”, meaning that no man or woman should look to another with desire, or passion, or they would be committing the sin of adultery. The only person that should be desired or loved with passion is Christ. As it can be read in Matthew 5-7, “Blessed are the pure in heart, because they shall see God”, otherwise the ones not pure in heart would be committing the sin of adultery. Dante Alighieri writes about the Lustful sinners, which means the ones that were sent to hell because they were not pure in heart, in canto V of Inferno. Dante’s journey thru hell shows the types of punishments that the sinners received according to their way to live on earth. As Dante is being lead by Virgil thru Inferno, Dante describes how is the second circle of hell, which contains the lustful sinners, the ones that went against God. Dante show the symbolism that reflects the sermon that Christ gave to the humans at the top of the mount when Christ said that “I tell you that any man who puts away his wife, except for the reason of harlotry, is making her the victim of adultery; and any man who marries a wife who has been divorced is committing adultery.” That goes to man and woman as well, as it can be seen, not only men are put in the Lustful sinners, women as well are send to there to pay for they sin. Dante explain the difference between lust as the sin, and love as being a sin when not pure, Lust being the attraction to the sensual...

...I love you for the simple things. The ways in which you are far from perfect. You may be charming, but you're also nerdy. Sometimes I am asked what I see in you. I don't respond, but I can't help but smile. If they knew what I saw in you, maybe they'd see it too and that scares me. • Do you now what its like to be in love with someone who doesn't love you back? To watch them look at someone else the way you look at them. With complete adoration and amazement. To watch them hold someone else the way you desperately wish to hold them. With warmth and affection. To watch them kiss someone else the way you so badly want to kiss them. With need and pure passion. Do you know what its like to be completely, irrevicobly in love with someone who doesn't love you back? To watch that person love someone else the way you so hopelessly love them. Its heartbreaking. Yet... You don't give up on that love. You don't give up on it because a love like that, so pure and so full, is one of a kind. And if you are lucky enough to experience it, even unreciprocated, it is a beautiful thing. One day, you'll find your person. Your person will be the one that you risk everything for. They'll make you feel like every moment is precious. Like time could stop forever, and with them, life would be breathtaking. They won't be perfect and you'll notice everything about them. Their smile. Their laugh. The way they look at you from the corner of their eye. The way their clothes fit. The way...

...Name: Delano Hinds ID#: A00327318 Love in Religion from East to West Love is expressed in many languages and is in the many different religions that exist upon the planet. From Hinduism to Christianity, it seems that each religion has the same priority, which is to teach and show how God loves us, his children, and how we in turn must show that same intense love to others that we coincide with on a daily basis. It is seen as the way to achieve world peace, unity and progress; “Love thy neighbor as you love yourself.” With the help of Thomas Jay Oord, I will go into depth of how love and its teachings through religion have affected people and discuss the differences between Christianity and Islam, or love in the east and west. In the eastern world, there is much discipline and faith that the people of Islam, Muslims, acknowledge through the Qur’an. “As such, the Qur’an for Muslims is the primary means of encountering God” (Abdin, “Love in Islam”, p.188). It is this deep desire of wanting to be on the path with Allah, that Muslims believe that the path to true love is through Allah and that true human love is part of Allah. “Muslims believe that true human love is part of Allah’s love and that it is the duty of Muslims to love one another truly” (Abdin, “Love in Islam”, p.188). The sense of placing one’s true “overseer” ahead of those whom you are supposed to love is highly regarded in the Islam world. There are different schools of thought in the Muslim world, they are...

...It seems ironic that both the oldest characters, Gloucester and Lear, who are blind either metaphorically or physically. They both exemplify that wisdom does not always come with old age. The parallel characters are very important to each other, Lear who is blinded metaphorically, and Gloucester who is physically blinded. Both characters undergo radical changes and their once sightless decisions become regrettable actions. They are unable to see people for who they truly are; thus their tragedy is the journey they must endure to regain sight. It is clear that although, Lear can physically see, he is blind, and lacks understanding, insight and pure intentions. It seems that the characters who had and kept their “healthy eyes” throughout the entire novel, could see both the evil and distorted world with which they live in. Ironically, while characters such as Gloucester, whose eyes were physically seized from him, and metaphorically Lear, both can now recognize their true selves. Blindness is not only a physical impairment for Gloucester and a forced lesson for King Lear ,but also a mental defect that some of the characters possess. They both share the inability to see the other characters true-selves ,and can only “see” the surface of things. Shakespeare uses Lear’s inability to see with his heart and Gloucester’s vulnerability to portray one of his themes, blindness. In the beginning of the play, Lear is seen to be a vain, conceited old man. He sees age as an opportunity to...

...beauty, like the night Of cloudless climes and starry skies; And all that’s best of dark and bright Meet in her aspect and her eyes; Thus mellowed to that tender light Which heaven to gaudy day denies. One shade the more, one ray the less, Had half impaired the nameless grace Which waves in every raven tress, Or softly lightens o’er her face; Where thoughts serenely sweet express, How pure, how dear their dwelling-place. And on that cheek, and o’er that brow, So soft, so calm, yet eloquent, The smiles that win, the tints that glow, But tell of days in goodness spent, A mind at peace with all below, A heart whose love is innocent! "She Walks in Beauty" is a poem written in 1814 by Lord Byron. One of Lord Byron’s most famous, it is a lyric poem that describes a woman of much beauty and elegance. TITLE: What’s Up With the Title? We usually refer to this poem simply by its first line, "She Walks in Beauty." But the first line does more than introduce the subject of the poem – a beautiful woman. The first line of the poem (and therefore the title) is an apparently conscious echo of the famous sonnet by William Shakespeare, "Shall I compare thee to a summer's day" (Sonnet 18). Except, of course, instead of comparing the beautiful woman to a "summer's day," Byron compares her to "night." So he's not just setting up a contrast between night and day, he's also setting up a contrast between himself and Shakespeare. This is a pretty gutsy move, if you think about...

...influence and prospects, as his own wife. It is from the marriage hour that many men and women date their success or failure in this life, and their hopes of the future life. {AH 43.1} I wish I could make the youth see and feel their danger, especially the danger of making unhappy marriages. {AH 43.2} Marriage is something that will influence and affect your life both in this world and in the world to come. A sincere Christian will not advance his plans in this direction without the knowledge that God approves his course. He will not want to choose for himself, but will feel that God must choose for him. We are not to please ourselves, for Christ pleased not Himself. I would not be understood to mean that anyone is to marry one whom he does not love. This would be sin. But fancy and the emotional nature must not be allowed to lead on to ruin. God requires the whole heart, the supreme affections. {AH 43.3} Make Haste Slowly—Few have correct views of the marriage relation. Many seem to think that it is the attainment of perfect bliss; but if they could know one quarter of the heartaches of men and women that are bound by the marriage vow in chains that they cannot and dare not break,...

...Love is usually described by the public as a feeling of warm, personal attachment or deep affection, commonly related to a parent, child, or friend. Love can bring two people together in a scene where it is them against the world, but it has also torn people to such an extent where their emotions are left like shredded up confetti. This can leave one believing in ridiculous and painful thoughts such as ‘Was it all a lie,’ or even thinking about themselves as unlovable. These two kinds of love can be identified as romantic love and its undesired counterpart, unrequited love. I find it ironic how love can be as romantic as writing beautiful poems under the stars and then crying yourself to sleep because your admirer “just don’t love you that way.”These two feelings of deep affection contradict each other in terms of reciprocation, but both can and have lead to chaos in stories, such as in Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare....

...Title of Book: Washington Square Author: James Henry Type of Book: Fiction What did you like best about this book? I have not many difficulties in reading the book. There is a very simple story and simply a few characters, however, like little ripples in the quiet life that thrown up a lot of my thoughts. What I appreciate most in the book is the good morality of the heroine, Catherine Sloper. She was simple, honest and humble. She was also good for evil. Her father, Dr. Sloper, was a witty man with a high popularity. In contrast, she had simply a plain and dull countenance and was born without a trace of her mother's beauty. So her father's irony to her began because she lacked the temperament consistent with the first social standard. Even so, she kept constant love and respect to him. She was tolerant enough to do so. In the end when her lover, Morris left her, she hid her grievance but pretended to be calm. She was so kind-hearted that she could not make her father angry. Such was a docile and pure woman, and I praise her for her morality. What did you dislike about this book? On the whole the book is excellent. Unfortunately, the sadness in the story depresses me. Her father never agreed with her love with Morris and she got into the dilemma of choosing between her father and her lover. After a lot of sufferings she resolved to give up his father's legacy to persue love, but was disappointed to find Morris a cheater who just coveted her property. That was a a fatal...

...Speech How many of you do like not eating your vegetables? Brusslesprouts, cauliflower, or eggplants are not that delicious, right? But what about a vegetable that tastes like a rich and creamy piece of heaven? Think of heaven like clouds, but now imagine that these clouds are soft poufs of chocolate, luscious, irresistible, and mouth-watering, dark chocolate fudge. Now what if I told you that this heaven you’re dreaming of is a vegetable. So chocolate is a vegetable? Yes, because chocolate is derived from cocoa beans. So chocolate is healthy? Depending. Chocolate that has been massively processed, roasted, toasted, microwaved and combined with obtrusive ingredients is not healthy. On the other hand, raw chocolate, chocolate in its most natural state is healthy. Raw chocolate has many healthy nutritional benefits as well as many healthy mental and emotional benefits in its more pure form. Today, I’m going to explain to you those benefits to inform you of all the hidden qualities most do not know of about chocolate. Most people think chocolate is an unhealthy treat due to massive processing and fats; however, cocoa is actually considered a ‘superfood’, meaning it is rich in nutrients and may even reduce the risk of certain cancers. Despite the common misconceptions of chocolate being unhealthy and the ‘diet devil’, the cocoa beans are actually loaded with antioxidants and minerals to help ward off degenerative diseases and maintain a healthy body. Our body is constantly under...
