Pope John Paul II was elected to lead the Catholic Church during a time of religious decline and moral deterioration in Europe. The Catholic Church was strongly against the atheist Communist regime that was spreading through eastern Europe. It was clear that a message was being sent to the Soviet Union when a Polish pope was elected. His election immediately caused concern in the USSR.

Good day to the teacher and my fellow learners‚ my speech topic for today is on legalising euthanasia. Imagine yourself being unable to walk‚ unable to see‚ and can barely breathe let alone speak. You are in such unbearable pain that you can’t even cry. Your life was well lived all those years before but now‚ there is no way that you could function without assistance. You think and feel as if your life has no meaning. Although your family is there for your every step of the way you begin to think

ll my life I attended church at Our Lady of Victory Roman Catholic Church. My great grandmother sang with the choir at the first mass‚ so was exposed to the many choral songs that they sang. I then realized that I had talent singing‚ that I really never noticed before. My great grandmother then placed me into church choir so I can put my talent to use in a constructive way.

In Praise of Folly‚ Erasmus put this independence to good use in repeating to the readers‚ a civilization significantly besmirched by mature worries‚ that a person is unable to serve both God and Mammon. He leveled over his irony by promising us that "there is merit in being

This morning I attended a weekday mass at All Saints Catholic Church. The church itself is relatively large from what I saw. The exterior had many well-tended trees and bushes‚ with a sign pointing to the office‚ and a cross about six feet tall out front by a cement walkway which led to the entrance. The building itself was a taupe color with dark brown roofing and glass doors leading at the entrance. As I walked through the glass doors I was not greeted by anyone‚ so I followed what everyone else
