The Religious Faith: “Is God a Three Letter Word for Love” Duke Ellington Despite the tough environment around the Ida B. Wells, people who live there are still faithful in God. However, some of them also question God for ignoring the black community. Based on this ambiguity, I think the gospel jazz “Is God a three letter word

The three songs I choose to discuss are I Will Survive Gloria Gaynor, White Rabbit Jefferson Airplane, and Got My Mojo Working Muddy Waters. I love to watch how music evolved over time and absorbed the differences in music to add to what they were doing at the time. I Will Survive Gloria Gaynor “I Will Survive” sung by Gloria Gaynor was a song about overcoming a difficult situation or moving on from a difficult situation.

Does survival require selfishness? I believe that survival is selfish because in order to survive you need to have some selfishness.

Nietzsche said “To live is to suffer, to survive is to find some meaning in the suffering.” This quote explains that to survive we have to struggle. This quote is saying that to live and to survive are two different things. I believe these are two things that we correspond in todays society. However, they do not alway correspond. In this instance they do not. Living is what we do everyday, and living takes effort. Sometimes living takes a little more effort than normal and we struggle. When we reach
and some societies use a democracy as a form of power. There are people who say that for a democracy to survive that people do not need to be educated on all subjects, they also believe that asking questions or challenging “long-held ideas” is a waste of time, because no results will be formed by them.

no species would survive” (Martel 44-45). Inside every human being, there is an extremely primal and animalistic trait that can surface when the will to survive becomes greater than the morals of the person. This trait allows humans to overcome their fear to do things which they wouldn’t normally be able to do in order to survive when they’re in extreme peril and in a do or die situation. Throughout the book, Life of Pi, survival is a dominant and central theme. The will to survive changes people and
Over the course of time, people have faced problems in order to survive, so they can live up to the legacy of family members and friends.

bread. The name of this experiment is "Bread vs. Chemicals." The goal of this experiment is to determine which chemical bread can survive in the longest. I will conduct multiple trials of each type of chemical and promptly record the results. I will use three containers, one for each chemical, and place a piece of bread in each to observe how long the bread can survive without falling apart.

believe exactly what you think or believe. I believe in creation. I believe that there is a God that created us, but I also believe that not everything from evolution is wrong. For example, I believe that evolutionist do not have the proof that they claim to have to support their beliefs, that our design for our body is nothing simple we were created by God for a reason, and although evolution is mostly wrong, I do believe that humans adapted to survive in their environment.
