A Story about history, and how it affected us….Before 2012, many people believed that the year 2012 was going to be the end of the world. This prediction was based off of the Mayan Calendar, a primary source of its own, made at ~August 11, 3114 BC. Why is this a primary source? Because the Mayans themselves made the calendar, and based everything off of it. However, rest assure, because the world didn’t end yet. (obviously, because its like what 2017 right now [delete this ()]). Many people believed this to be true, and thousands of people rushed to get ready for this ‘end of the world’. They bought food and water in large quantities (and with their life savings) and waited out in underground shelters. The connotation of the phrase “end of the world” scares many. They never want to think of what or where the world is going, and the end of the world. Instead, they look towards the past, and try to learn lessons from the past so that they do not make the same mistakes today, because if the same mistakes happen today, well, you never know where the world will lead to tomorrow. How do they look towards the past? Well, they do NOT take bits and pieces from different timezones randomly. Instead, researchers try to find history that actually has an effect on today or tomorrow. Take for example, the world wars. People go in chronological order from even before the start of the war to a little after it, to learn of the reasons the war started, what happened during the war, and the consequences of fighting the war, and how it affects people. After that, many people would write nonfiction and fictional stories about it, sometimes adding personification to animals that “viewed” the battle while it was going on. An example of this, is “War Horse”, by Michael Morpurgo, in which a horse by the name of Joey, is given a personification, and tells us of an experience a horse had in real-life history (from a farm animal to a animal that survived WW1). With all of this information that is given to us from history, both the problems, and the resolution, it is up to us to learn what is best for our current situation, and to not make the same mistakes again. <span>

Vince's claim is a way of showing certainty. It is an expression of which a person has a total belief of something and he or she would likely believe that is going to happen for sure. It could be seen above as Vince expresses his words in a way that he is sure that he would be married without using words that he is uncertain but instead he is sure of it.
I believe the answer is:
《Biblical allusions》
hope this help.
It is said that not only the ancient Mesopotamians but the entire civilisation taking place during the prehistoric era believed in the idea that the Gods created the humans in order to serve them. One of the most famous Gods among the ancient Mesopotamian culture were the entities Anu, which is the god of heaven, and Enlil, which is the god of air.
