    Italian explorer, Christopher Columbus was born in 1451 in the republic of Genoa, Italy. Christopher Columbus sought to find a way to the Indies to find gold and spice. After receiving significant funding from Queen Elizabeth and King Ferdinand, he set sail on August 3, 1492 with three ships, the Pinta, Nina, and Santa Maria, with 104 men. The voyage he took to find gold and spice led him not to Asia but to the discovery of America which wasn’t the place he expected to arrive at. Christopher Columbus is responsible for the death of the Tainos because he used the kindness of the Tainos to his benefit, ordering his men to enslave and mistreat the Tainos, and his bad governing skills.…

    Alas, in the midst of our exchange, Columbus became extremely furious. His pale skin went from white to boiling red in rage. I had no clue why he was so frustrated, when just a second earlier he was the happiest person on earth. He shouted at his men, but I couldn't understand a word he said. The only thing I knew was that we had done something wrong, so all I could say was, “Sorry,” over and over again.…

    When you think of the world that Alice Liddell fell into and believed to be true, you might think she was a lunatic living in an imaginary world. Yet if you really think about it, how do you know that her world isn’t genuine, and ours simply an illusion that veils our eyes from the reality? Who’s to say what’s real, and what isn’t? There are two very different, yet eerily the same stories that expand on the ideas of reality, and the truth that is found within it. One, a modern movie, called The Matrix, where a man learns that his race is being controlled by a robotic race. The human race lives in a simulated world, where they are ignorant of the world that lies outside their imprisoned minds. The other a classical essay written by Plato, called “The Allegory of the Cave.” In the essay, Plato entertains the idea, of what prisoners who are raised in a cave, where all they can know to be true is shadows on a large wall that they gaze at their entire lives. They contrast in many ways, yet over the centuries since Plato’s time, the theme of his essay still applies.…

    Question 1: In Christopher Columbus’s personal journal there are numerous examples that portray him to be a hero in some fashion or another. Christopher Columbus describes in immaculate detail his voyage across the sea. He portrays himself as a man of great power and leadership. Columbus describes his search for the city of gold in such a way that one would almost start to believe that he is doing the Natives a service by extracting their gold from their lands so that it can be placed in the rightful hands of the rulers of his own nation. Columbus says, “They have no religion, and I believe that they would very readily become Christians, as they have a good understanding.” (Columbus) In this regard he can be portrayed as a hero in that he was…

    Abuse In Scientology

    The church says that inside every religion there are bad people who do terrible things and it is not their fault that people commit crimes, which critics agree with to an extent, because it is the hiding and cover ups that are detrimental to those inside the religion. The abuses inside the RPF are undeniable, but have been previously protected by religious freedom acts. Now that Scientology is no longer considered a religion in the United States the opportunity to prosecute the offenses would be easier, but the catch is if you are a member of Scientology you cannot take legal action against the church, because it is considered one of the high crimes, and you will be disconnected from the church. The people who have shared their stories claim they are sharing them in hopes to save others from falling for the church’s lies, and to protect them from the psychological and physical abuse they have witnessed and…

    The other group of people in the visible world is the believers. They are blind followers. They believe what they are told without questioning it or giving what they are told a second thought. These people are like the hysteric mob they follow the ideas of others. But unlike the appearance followers the believers can distinguish between the illusion and the real thing. The believers could tell you that the rock itself is real and the picture of the rock is an illusion. They know that the rock itself contains more reality. And the believers…

    Is seeing believing? Is the universe a lie? These questions challenge the accuracy of our perception of reality-is reality truly what we believe it to be? Our perception of reality is not always necessarily true. People often misunderstand situations and twist the truth for their convenience. Furthermore, our eyes and our brain are also easily confused and misdirected. There are many circumstances where what we believe isn’t true and our impression of the truth is far from actuality.…
