    On September 18‚ 2007‚ Dr. Pausch gave his memorable “last lecture” at Carnegie Mellon University. It is a tradition at Carnegie Mellon University that when a professor is retiring‚ they give one last lecture as their final goodbye.

    Heresy Lecture Essay

    • 265 Words
    • 2 Pages

    What I found to be particularly interesting in the lecture “Heresy Lecture Part One” was the practice of piety.

However‚ those that did not abide by the principles of the Roman Catholic Church could be accused of heresy. For individuals that did
