millions of people in Italy and surrounding areas
peace. Rome fell when it was invaded by
overwhelming tribes and groups of barbarians. Rome

Wales has a tumultuous and somewhat violent
history. During the early years A. D. , the
country was in turmoil with the Roman invasions,
and the biggest defenses that the Welsh had were
the deep, dark hills scattered all over the
country. Without the safety of these hills, Wales
would certainly have been taken over by the
Romans. After the Romans left Wales, the Vikings
presented a new threat to the peaceful lands of
Wales. The Romans also had a huge effect on the
Welsh religion and language. Wa...

brief look at the move of faith from those
pianistic belief systems into the early Christian
church. Before writing further, it is important to

The Righteousness of God in Paul's Theology The
question is, of course, how does the Christian
obtain this righteousness? Indeed, what exactly is
"righteousness?" When Luther defines the
"righteousness of God" as that by which He makes
us righteous, his words have a strongly "Catholic"
ring. And a good Protestant will feel a little
anxious when Luther speaks of a "preparation" for
righteousness, sometimes in connection with his
idea of "humility" (which he seems to regard as,

To me the Greeks had the most unique gods, because
they had many gods for many different things such
as love, war, etc. The gods were almost like human
beings as they interacted in the lives of the
people they watched over and the people they
cherished. The gods were said to have mixed with

Western liberal scholars have divided human
history into three phases: the premodern, the

definite end, rather they layer on top of each.
For example, a thoroughly post modern society has
elements of premodern and modern in it. There is
no one exact time when the premodern ended and the
modern began: each society reached them
differently. Western Europe entered the modern era
in the sixteen hundreds while the rest of the
world was still premodern. Ev...
