young Thomas when he first steps into the fortress that seems to have no exit. He feels like he has been there before, but can’t put his finger on it. Other Gladers notice and don’t like the coincidence that the day after Thomas arrives, not only does another member immediately arrive, but a female. Throughout the maze history, as far back as the keepers could recall, there had never been a girl Greenie (someone who’s new to the Glades). The keepers of the maze were also shocked at what Thomas was
on fire, killing the parents of Thomas Builds-the Fire. Many people were already asleep in the house when the fire started, so no one saw Arnold’s mistake, which he kept a secret from the whole reservation. Both Thomas Builds-the-Fire (Evan Adams) and Victor Joseph (Adam Beach), Arnold’s son, were saved from the burning house. Arnold ran to catch Thomas in his arms after Thomas was thrown from a window. Victor and Thomas grew up together. After the fire, Thomas was raised by his grandmother (Monique

Her cries were interrupted by the revving of an engine in the garage. She made it to the window in time to see his Volvo back out the yard. "Thomas! Thomas....wait!" Her cries vanished into thin air as the Volvo disappeared around the bend. Carol grew really angry all of a sudden. How could he leave? He'll sleep on the couch

Explication: Dylan Thomas’s untitled poem known as “Do not go gentle into that goodnight” (1)is a deep poem that goes against the familiar theme of accepting death, instead Dylan Thomas proposes that perhaps we fight against inevitable grip of death and live as long as we can. The first stanza begins with the speaker addressing an unknown audience, saying “Do not go gentle into that good night”(1).

The painting The Incredulity of Saint Thomas by Caravaggio was one of my favorite paintings I saw during this class. The painting depicts Saint Thomas and two apostles standing in front of Jesus Christ who has a gaping wound in his torso. Saint Thomas refused to believe in Christ unless he was able to see his wound from being nailed to the cross for himself and stick his finger in it. In the painting, Jesus is holding Thomas’ hand and pushing his finger into the wound. I feel like the detail in the
Leonardo da Vinci’s famous painting The Last Supper was first started in 1495 and completed in 1498.

The Apostles that surround Mary’s sarcophagus do not discover her body, but flowers allowing one to come to the conclusion that not only her spirit but her whole body ascended into heaven. The Apostles are around her sarcophagus and seem divided in their understanding as to what happened to Mary. Five Apostles are looking down, perplexed that Mary’s body isn’t in its Sarcophagus.

“Reasonable Doubt” The article Reasonable Doubt by Alice Camille presents reasons for defending the actions of Thomas, the apostle of Jesus Christ, and relates the factors that not only made Thomas doubt his faith, but the testimonies of the resurrection witnessed by Thomas himself. The article also discusses evidence demanded by Thomas to prove that Jesus had risen from the dead.

Christ gave precise commands on how to eat and drink in remembrance of him in which is now known as communion. The Last Supper is a

The resurrection is the central foundation upon which the Christian faith is built, the resurrection is the spine of the Bible and the credibility of the Apostles in their teachings of Christ Without the resurrection, Christianity is pointless and has no purpose.

An Analysis of Wright’s Poem Saint Judas Upon reading the poem "Saint Judas" by James Wright, the reader quickly realizes that the poem deals with Judas Iscariot, one of Jesus' twelve apostles. The author describes Judas as "going out to kill himself,"(line 1) when he sees a man being beaten by "a pack of hoodlums"(2). Judas quickly runs to help the man, forgetting "how [his] day began"(4). He leaves his rope behind and, ignoring the soldiers around him, runs to help. Finally, he remembers
