We Will Rock you mash-up
God Will Smite You
Verse 1
Sinner, you will die, it’s a big lie,
if you think that you’re gonna end up in heaven some day
If you want to rebel
you’ll burn in Hell
If sin stinks, then you’ve got a terrible smell
CHORUS
God will, God will smite you
God will, God will smite you
Verse 2
You are in the hands of a big man
if you don’t obey then you’ll be dropped to Hell someday
God is firm;
you’re just a worm
When God’s boot stomps, you’ll cease to squirm
CHORUS

Connections between Plato's allegory of the cave and Edwards' Sinners in the Hands
In Plato's Allegory Of The Cave, Plato attempts to explain (in excruciating detail) the possibility that a person's perceived reality may not be true. In Sinners In The Hands, Edwards describes this same possibility, while also explaining that it's true. Edwards informs us that the usual and commonly accepted way of looking at the world is false, and that to be completely honest with ourselves about existence, we must understand the wrath of God-or, move out of our 'cave'. While Plato's Allegory describes a POSSIBLE philosophical explanation for reality, Sinners tells us what IS in fact real. The main similarity between these two texts is that both present the idea that the reality that MOST people know and live in is false.
Analysis of cotton mather's diary
In the beginning of this excerpt, Mather explains a current conflict: he wishes to court a beautiful girl, but she does not share his religion. Throughout the text, the importance of religion in Mather's life becomes increasingly evident. This says a lot about the time period as well as Mathers. During the time period which this text was written, religion was a very important aspect in both personal lives of all citizens and society as a whole. The common fear of Satan and desire for a pure life is exemplified in this selection.
Hysteria
thomas paine analyzed rhetorically
Common Sense by Thomas Paine insists on the reader the simplicity and necessity of Paine's political ideas. The very title of the essay suggests how obvious and common this perspective ought to be. Throughout his essay, Paine uses somewhat informal dialogue, as if he is having a discussion with the audience, rather than, say, preaching a sermon. The time period that this was written in is incredibly important, as it was written around the time that America was about to go to war with Great Britain, over the issues explained in Common Sense, in vivid detail.
In this essay, Paine admits that he will possibly be unable to persuade his audience- a humble gesture on his part, putting him on 'equal playing ground' with his audience, and developing ethos by portraying himself as an understanding individual. However, he shows off his confidence in his ideals when he explains that with time, more people will grow to understand and agree with him. He goes so far as to insult people who disagree with him, to an extent, as he describes them as being "caught in a tumult". So, we see a number of intelligent strategies in this introduction: developing ethos by way of appearing relate-able, yet firmly establishing his unflinching stance on his political opinions.
Paine continues using strong and powerful dialogue throughout this essay, but he always reverts to logical reasonings in his explanations. He uses incredibly emotional speech to "stir up" the audience, who mostly agreed with him at the time to begin with, in order to 'call to action', and effectively start a revolution. Paine takes advantage of the already common opinion that the colonists are being taken advantage of by the colonists, and exaggerates these fears to an incredibly large extent, in order to make his influence even more powerful and determined.

Fallacies
6)Appeal to consequences of belief Kailee-"Look! It's a strange beam of light moving through the sky. I don't know what it is, so it must be aliens visiting from another planet" - The picture with the Rabbits go with this quote- just because you believe it is something, does not make it that thing. Just because you believe it is a spacecraft doesn't make it a spacecraft. 7)Appeal to emotion Jared-"Don't talk and drive"-the picture with blood spewing out of the phone is presented, therefore the claim, that the person you are talking to will die appeals to emotion. 8)Appeal to fear Bailey-"Anti-God is Anti-American, Anti-American is treason, Traitors lead to civil war"- just because you want to create fear by saying someone who doesn't believe in God isn't American does not make that claim true 35)Questionable clause Jared-"You're not you when you're hungry"- Snickers commercial. Some commercials make it appear that your hunger is the cause of the anger... Which isn't always true. Therefore the cause of your anger is questionable. |
