I followed the evil scientist into a dark room. What I saw‚ I would never forget. The atmosphere was charged with several chemical smells that I can’t describe and there were not any lights in the room but heavy trunks of old clothes‚ dusty and broken furniture and enormous threads of cobwebs into which the scientist just vanished .This gave me a haunted impression and as I was standing‚ suddenly‚ a shadow whizzed past me. This made me more petrified. Then against my will‚ I took a step and followed

FORGIVENESS IS A VIRTUE Forgiveness is a word that we use lightly in the world today. Forgiveness is more than just a three syllable word‚ it is a word that keeps this world moving. What I mean by that is‚ without forgiveness‚ everyone would go around in the world hating each other for everything. Jesus tells us that no one is perfect‚ so how can we expect people not to make mistakes? The definition of forgiveness is "excusing a mistake or offence". That is pretty simple

we do also make mistakes and we are constantly in need of forgiveness. Islam speaks about two aspects of forgiveness: a) Allah’s forgiveness; b) Human forgiveness. We need both‚ because we do wrong in our relations to Allah as well as in our relations to each other. A. Allah’s Forgiveness: Allah Almighty is the Oft-Forgiving.

The Naked Ape Essay My question is “After all we’ve evolved from‚ why can we still not control some of our animal-like instincts?” One possible answer is that no matter how much we evolve‚ we will always just be fancy apes.

Congratulations: You are an ape. A "great ape‚" technically. Alongside us in this brainy family of animals are four other living species: chimpanzees‚ gorillas‚ orangutans‚ and bonobos (formerly called "pygmy chimpanzees"). The biological gap between us and our great ape cousins is small. At last count‚ only 1.23 percent of our genes differ from those of chimpanzees. But mentally‚ the gap between us and them is a Grand Canyon. On an average day in the life of the human species‚ we file thousands

setting in the book makes Planet of the Apes one of the greatest satires. In the movie‚ the setting takes place on earth in the future where apes deny and are afraid of the past‚ whereas the setting in the book is on a different planet where apes are civilized and technologically advanced‚ and the humans were primitive creatures. The orangutans in the movie prevent what happened to the humans from happening to the apes. Orangutans‚ such as Zaius went to great work as destroying the cave where the evidence
