... is it the New Testament teaches us? - to believe that the Almighty committed debauchery with a woman engaged to be married, and the belief of this debauchery is called faith." [Thomas Paine] Provide proof the bible is actually telling the true account of past events. Using the paradox “it’s true, because the bible tells me so!” doesn’t hold water. To create a document, then within the document itself, proclaim all that’s written within the document is true, proves nothing! Without outside evidence to substantiate the text, it’s still just text. Of course, everything written within “Convince me there is a god!” is true beyond all doubt. ...
... as it stands. McGwire has a better slugging percent then Sosa. McGwire has a .575 as Sosa has .497 averages. Lately I noticed that McGwire's slugging percent in the past couple of years has only gotten better so at the rate he is going his slugging percent will probably be over .650 when he retires. However, for Sosa he has pretty much stayed the same in the past few years. If he keeps it up his slugging percent will probably stay pretty much the same. The number of hits that McGwire and Sosa have been pretty close to the number they should have in this point of there careers. McGwire has 1388 hits in 1576 games and Sosa has 1280 hits in 1289 games. If Sosa was i ...
... a hard time understanding what they are reading due to lack of creativity from watching too much TV. While losing creativity , your child can also gain laziness. While some kids are actively involved in sports after school , a majority of them just come home and plop themselves in front of the TV. What is happening when they are watching TV? Absolutely nothing , they are sitting on a couch not moving and not thinking , and sometimes eating to. And we all know what happens when you eat and are not active. If a child keeps up with this scenario , as they grow older it is less likely they will want to play with other kids or take up an active hobby. Your child wi ...
... The material world is postulated to reflect a mysterious plan originating in these forces or beings, a plan which is knowable by humans only to the extent that it has been revealed to an exclusive few. Criticising or questioning any part of this plan is strongly discouraged, especially where it touches on questions of morals or ethics. Science, on the other hand, assumes that there are no transcendent, immaterial forces and that all forces which do exist within the universe behave in an ultimately objective or random fashion. The nature of these forces, and all other scientific knowledge, is revealed only through human effort in a dynamic process of inquiry. The u ...
... make up fifty-five percent of the population. Four of its largest islands are known as the Greater Sunda Islands. Jawa has the smallest area but is largest in population density (with about 120 million), Sumatera is in the west across from Malaysia, Kalimantan (which shares land space with Malaysia on Borneo), and Sulawesi, which is also called Celebes, the “wishbone – shaped” island of the east. The fifth largest island is New Guinea, which is not primarily a part of Indonesian cultural ties although half of its western side of the island is under Indonesian control. Australia is approximately 10 times the size of Texas, with a population of eighteen ...
... to speed up service is a technological force that McDonalds also deals with. The different traditions and eating habits of people across the globe is a sociocultural force that McDonalds deals with as it expands across the globe. McDonalds must deal with problems in the task environment as well as in the general environment. McDonalds being the number one fast food chain must always be watching its competitors. If it does not watch them they will gladly take over its reigning position. The suppliers of McDonalds must also be dealt with. The suppliers of its food products must be kept happy and must also be able to handle the large amount of supplies that McD ...

... Therefore, I work hard and endure the days of unpleasant chores because I am motivated to participate in my hobbies like racing sailboats and driving cars. Bettering my life through self-enjoyment allows me to contribute in a more affective way to society. A person who has spent a weekend participating in their hobbies and passions will be much more relaxed than someone who has been working without any self-satisfaction. A relaxed person is a more productive person and productive people tend to give of themselves in society. Motivation towards self-enjoyment leads to an overall improvement in society. Without motivation would Einstein have had an ...
... An example of how regulations can be counterproductive is in France. Currently employees are not allowed to work more than 35 hours per week. As of the 1st of January, that work week will be further reduced. Companies are fined if employees work more than 35 hours. This is causing a problem because the companies’ production is lower and so is the quality of the products. With reduced quality and quantity of the product, these companies could be forced out of business, leaving the government less to regulate. Safety is another key issue that the government likes to regulate. Because of the reduced work week in France, it will be interesting to see if safety bec ...
... had a distrust of leisure, a suspicion that the poor are shiftless which is said to have contributed to their downfall. When the Puritans escaped Europe from its Religious persecution and came to the colonies, they dreamed of becoming a utopian society. This society was also looked at as “the city on top of the hull” probably expressing the point of view the Puritans had of themselves. They used their theocracy (belief that the bible was the supreme authority) to complete their utopian society and has been debuted by historians if they achieved their dream. The Puritans did affirm their beliefs by their storytelling, by their genealogists, their theocracy, an ...
