.... and further contend that this is where we find the presence of God. However, I also believe that we cannot limit the presence of God in our lives to only those moments when we are at the top of the mountain. Karl Rahner refers to God as always being on our horizon. The use of this metaphor suggests that God’s presence is found only when we have reached the mountain summit. Yet, this greatly limits God’s presence in our life. Most people have often felt the presence of God in the deepest, lowest corners of thier lives. These experiences are also considered your horizons. A time to make changes in order to always keep moving forward. As t .....

.... more bones. Along with the bones, some late nineteenth century artifacts were recovered. The Archaeological Resources Protection Act required Chatters to obtain a permit to excavate on federal land, so before he could go back to excavate he had to get a permit from the Army Core of Engineers (Lee). After receiving his permit he returned to the site several times and recovered a near complete skeleton. At first the nineteenth century artifacts led him to believe that the skeleton was from the same time period, but then he noticed that the bones were discolored and there was soil adhering to them. This indicated that they were not as recent as the l .....

.... religion was intended for the person to become aware of the helplessness and the reality of sin and how to no longer depend on material things or people but to put his faith solely upon God.

Faith, Goodman Brown’s young wife stands for what Goodman Brown believes in. He sees his .....

.... which according to Hally, proves "where we come from and what it all means" (1301). Sam totally disagrees with Darwin's "Theory of Evolution" (1301) because evolution is in contrast to the Bible's teaching on Creationism, and he says that just because it is in a book it "does not mean [he's] got to believe it" (1301). Sam believes that "Jesus Christ" (1302) was "a man of magnitude" (1300). Hally is obviously against Sam's suggestion of Jesus Christ, because Hally makes it clear that he is "an atheist" (1303). This disagreement between Sam and Hally is really just an example of the religious tensions in South Africa during Fugard's lifetime betw .....

.... on papyrus scrolls and it is theorized that these scrolls each told a chapter in Homers plays. The modern version of The Odyssey is a combination of all these scrolls that could have existed as separate stories about Odysseus’ travels, his encounters, and how he obtained his status as a hero. Ancient Greece has always been an interest of mine. In 6th grade a teacher that I had know for my whole schooling showed a movie every week. One week we watched “Jason and the Argonaughts”. Ever since then I could never get enough Greek mythology. In freshman year of high school we read the annotated text book version of The Odyss .....

.... that had so much style."(97) The Grangerfords house, is seen as a grand house to those inside. This fancy house makes a visitor think of the sophisticated homes in town, however they are still back country people who only view their home as having style for the things inside. In the parlor of this house "there [are] beautiful curtains on the windows, white with pictures painted of castles."(101) The curtains painted with castles give the family a false feeling of being elite. When you think of castles you think of queens and kings and aristocracy. Ironically they think of others who lack the few finer things like curtains with castles on them to b .....
