  • God’s Grandeur

    God’s Grandeur

    Gerard Nanley Hopkins’ poem “God’s Grandeur”, illustrates the relationship connecting man and God. Hopkins uses alliteration and stern tone to compliment the religious content of this morally ambitious poem. The poem’s rhythm and flow seem to capture the same sensation of a church sermon. The diction used by Hopkins seems to indicate a condescending attitude towards society. The first stanza states that we are “charged with the grandeur of God”, or the direct quality of

  • Dipicting Decartes Explanation of God

    Dipicting Decartes Explanation of God

    In Descartes's passage it seems as if he is trying to prove the existence of God by creating a simple argument. By comparing different images, Descrates attempts to prove that God does not exist, and then invalidates the argument by looking deeper into the comparison of images to prove, the exact opposite, that God exists. Descartes first preface explains that the mere fact that he can imagine a mountain with a valley, does not mean

    Supremecy of Ancient Greek Gods as Displayed in the Odyssey

    Upon completion of this epic, many evident and plausible themes could be identified. The one that lingered in my mind best concerned the gods, and the idea of fate vs. freewill. This idea can be expressed through a claim. In The Odyssey, through skyward images, organic similes, and dynamic epithets, Homer muses that deities have supreme control over all actions in the world. As a result of skyward images, the gods are portrayed as superior

    Existence of God

This argument is not sound in its ability to prove the existence of the Christian God. However, Cleanthes does present a sound case for order in the universe, which can be seen as an aspect of one's faith in a Supreme Creator. In the argument from design, Cleanthes is
