My glorious wall by https://padlet.com/theodore_donnellan/9nx9waqxqldg Made with a curious mind en-us 2018-09-11 17:03:48 UTC 2023-02-05 06:41:00 UTC hello@padlet.com STOP TRYING TO BE GOD theodore_donnellan https://padlet.com/theodore_donnellan/9nx9waqxqldg/wish/279986134 In this song by Travis Scott he explains how people who believe they are God-like figures are a burden to themselves and society. He goes into depth about how wealth can lead to the bottom as quickly as it leads to happiness. In the video Travis is shown walking with a mob of sheep with their eyes glowing and other God-like qualities. Anyone who is familiar with the Bible knows the sheep are a metaphor for us humans who should follow God, not believe we are God.Those who hold this mindset, ultimately, will lead themselves to their own downfall. In Ishmael, Ishmael, is taken from his home in the West African Jungle due to man believing they are entitled 
to him because he is an animal, and they are man. ]]> 2018-09-11 17:10:40 UTC https://padlet.com/theodore_donnellan/9nx9waqxqldg/wish/279986134 Continued... theodore_donnellan https://padlet.com/theodore_donnellan/9nx9waqxqldg/wish/279995440 This mindset shown in both the novel and the music video, prove that that the egomaniacal mindsets of people will perpetually lead to the downfall of society. ]]> 2018-09-11 17:26:24 UTC https://padlet.com/theodore_donnellan/9nx9waqxqldg/wish/279995440 "In fact, of course, there is no secret knowledge; no one knows anything that can't be found on a shelf in the public library. But I didn't know that then".

It's a megalomaniac's fantasy, and enacting it has given the Takers a culture riddled with greed, cruelty, mental illness, crime and drug addiction."

Therefore I will live outside this law and grow without limit. To be limited is evil."

Whether you are spiritual, religious, or nothing at all, everyone can agree the God like qualities and powers told in myths and biblical reading are impossible for any human. These egotistical qualities will lead to the down fall of anyones success. theodore_donnellan https://padlet.com/theodore_donnellan/9nx9waqxqldg/wish/280621166 2018-09-13 01:11:23 UTC https://padlet.com/theodore_donnellan/9nx9waqxqldg/wish/280621166 In Ishmael by David Quinn, religion plays a major role. People believe that religion let's them use the world as they please and do what they want. Assuming they can blame God(s) for the natural world. This behavior has an adverse affect on society and the individual humans themselves. theodore_donnellan https://padlet.com/theodore_donnellan/9nx9waqxqldg/wish/280624558 2018-09-13 01:30:34 UTC https://padlet.com/theodore_donnellan/9nx9waqxqldg/wish/280624558 Johnny Football theodore_donnellan https://padlet.com/theodore_donnellan/9nx9waqxqldg/wish/280774227 https://www.si.com/mmqb/2016/03/15/johnny-manziel-nfl-cleveland-browns]]> 2018-09-13 12:09:38 UTC https://padlet.com/theodore_donnellan/9nx9waqxqldg/wish/280774227
