Biblical Foundations: December 2006
http://amym211.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 08, 2006. Theodicy has always been something I've been interested in, long before I knew it had a name. Raised in a Christian church, I've always had questions about the bad things that claim so many lives. Especially natural disasters or the horrible poverty in places like. And obviously not everyone who died in an earthquake or was starving in poverty was wicked and evil. I would ask why God would let such horrible things happen and nobody could answer to my satisfaction. When the spea...

Tuesday, November 28, 2006. Three more groups enlightened with us on their depictions of different books of the Bible. Once again, I was extremely entertained! Group number FOUR kick started the day with their skit on the story of Ruth through the eyes of Jewish store owners.Joshua was the best looking Jewish girl ever! For a while and all of the things that possibly come out of that situation. The groups also shared some terrific artwork to the music of the Newsboys. Posted by Kimberly @ 8:53 PM. I have...

English 211 Thoughts: December 2006
http://tarranteng211.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 06, 2006. First of - all the presentations have been really interesting to listen to. But Marlow's on the book of Revelation (with a connection to The Invisible Man. Which I would have been interested in hearing since I've read the book) and the number 666 was very intriguing. However, would a Christian, after so many of the books of the NT talk about "turning the other cheek" and doing good to your neighbor, write an angry book placing the ruler as the antigonist? That's so strange t...

English 211 Thoughts: September 2006

Thursday, September 28, 2006. Dinah and The Red Tent. Today in class we touched briefly (I would have liked a longer discussion) on Dinah and her supposed rape. Did she get raped or was the writer of this particular story conflicted? Dr Sexson talked about how it sounds like there are two different writers of this story - one writer favors Hamar and his love for Dinah whereas the other writer views him as violent, defiler of Jacob's beautiful daughter. Why am I so interested in this story? Yet Dr. Se...

Thursday, August 31, 2006. August 31, 2006 - One of the most important things that needs to be remembered throughout this class is something very simple that is stated in the first chapter of Northrop Frye's biblical mythology, and this is that the word Bible comes from the Greek language meaning. Sometimes we think that the Bible has a couple of aut. Hors and a few editions, when in reality it has millions of each. So the story of doing what was forbiddon is OUR story was a perfect way to end the day...

Thursday, October 26, 2006. Jacob in the book The Slave, really made this idea clear for me. He was just the Jacob of THAT TIME. That got me thinking.is there a Jacob of every time? Is there a Sarah, or Wanda, of every period in time? I don't know. But it is comforting to know that other people are thinking the same things that I am! I am only beginning to wonder who I am replicating at this TIME PERIOD in the world! Other issues that were brough up in class:. We are all simply acting out stories". I kno...
