Man vs. Nature The natural world is superior to all of humanity. Without reason‚ land controls us and influences our identities.

Mr. Pellgrin 12/06/12 T/U Man VS. Women Since the begging of time man has been getting into trouble or women have directly lead to their down fall. While comparing the two I found that there are a lot more similarities than differences. Men and woman share the same feelings they just show and express them in different ways. For example men will hold them in until we absolutely have too. Women on the other hand will share their feeling at the drop of a dime. There is nothing more dreadful

This poem “Kangaroos near Hay” by John Foulcher is a poem that represents man vs nature‚ this concept is shown through the image of a kangaroo being horse like‚ through the opening lines “head like a horse.” This reinforces an image of power and full of strength‚ to being twisted by the back bone into a coil which gives a very powerful‚ violent and gruesome image in the mind of readers.

Man vs. the Bible In today’s world‚ we are presented with many different thoughts and ideas that contradict the Bible. We can see many of these perspectives in psychology. Several psychologists created their own ideas for understanding why people think and behave the way that they do without consulting the Bible. It is important for us as Christians to be able to compare these ideas to the Bible and decide for ourselves if they agree or oppose each other. Both humans and animals function at a biological
