Because anyone is welcome to attend the events, meetings, trips, and join the e-mail list of this group, including non-Christians, one cannot assume that everyone in the group is a devout Christian. As conversion is a gradual process, it is possible that there are many students who are active in the group but are not 100% sure that they believe in all of the articles of the Christian faith. Such a person might aspire to one day lead the group, but should realize, because of the explicit lines in the constitution, that he or she cannot assume...
Such fiery rhetoric, though, masks a gradual but unmistakable effort by al-Zarqawi to recast his image.

...slow dramatization. Tsotsi’s often awkward interactions with the kidnapped baby parallel his painstaking personal development, as he reflects on aspects of his own difficult childhood. Chweneyagae’s features show no sense of tenderness during the rather violent opening sequence, but with his gradual growth of affection for the baby, his young face animatedly begins to embrace the necessity of his own bottled emotions. Hood does a superb job of setting the scene, using color and music befitting to each of the film’s locations. In the township, angry...
