In order to know exactly what the stumbling block principle is, a stumbling block must be defined as it is used in the Bible. First, in order to understand a stumbling block, “offense” must be defined. Offense within the Bible can be defined in two ways. It can be seen in the Bible as God or Jesus causing unbelievers to stumble in their ways and become saved, and it can also be seen as an experienced Christian causing a new Christian to act against their conscience; this offense can also be…
In a thought-provoking literary composition by Stephen Jay Gould, the hypotheses of dinosaur extinction are intermingled with the all-consuming thoughts and dilemmas that plague much of the modern society, including: sex, drugs, and violence; as well as one great unknown- how dinosaurs became extinct. Gould adds the public’s lust for outré, controversial statements with real, scientific inferences. Plaguing the world with questionability, the explanation for the dinosaurs’ extinction is still…
Have you ever wondered what the other half of the world was like? Just like a person can wonder what the 96.5 of the earths water was like. Talking about the mysterious ocean. Did you know it might actually be possible for us to have living dinos in the water, want to know why? Because of the whole theory that a meteor hit earth and killed all living dinos except for some that water dinos were fine and didn’t get effected. So one-day u can discover a megalodon eating your butt But that…
The Earth is about 4.6 billion years old. Within those years, up to now, five major extinctions have occurred in the Earth’s evolution: The Ordovician, Devonian, Permian, Triassic-Jurassic, and the K-t extinction which killed the dinosaurs. The time of humans is called the Anthropocene era. It is the time during which humans will leave their imprint in the fossil data. Sixty-five million years ago, the dinosaurs died out due to an asteroid. Film director, Louie Psihoyos says in the documentary,…
Since she last brought down her reality record in the ladies' 400-meter free-form, 24 months prior in Gold Coast, Australia, Katie Ledecky has moved on from secondary school, enlisted at Stanford, had her astuteness teeth maneuvered and bloomed into the overwhelming female swimmer of her time. She has brought down her own reality records in the 800 free by about 4½ seconds in that range and in the 1,500 free by very nearly nine — however the 400 imprint withstood each test from each and every…
June 23, 2016 To describe “a” life event or experience that will influence my goals at Colorado Christian University…. well, at forty six years old I do not have one experience, but many that will influence my goals. Let’s start with my being a single mom! I have an incredibly intelligent and beautiful seven year old that looks up to her mom. I cannot think of anything more incredible than to finish my degree, at this point in my life, and be an example that at any age you can do whatever you…

This mass extinction is known as the worst extinction comparing them to the Ordovician, Devonian and the Cretaceous Extinction. Some individuals are not award that the Permian –Triassic are two forming boundary between the end of the Permian and the beginning of the Triassic period. The…
have winning the Powerball (1 in 185,000,000). However, it is still very unlikely, that such an event will happen during our time on Earth. After all, there are between 1.1 and 1.9 million asteroids in the Asteroid Belt, between Mars and Jupiter (“Asteroids: In Depth” 2). Who is to say one of those massive asteroids will not go on a collision course with Earth, and cause another extinction-level event, like the one around 66 million years ago, that wiped the dinosaurs off the face of the Earth?…
For my event coverage I attended the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure breast cancer walk/run. This is a huge organization that is held all around the country and this past weekend the event was held at Six Flags Great Adventure. The event took place outdoors and the weather was a perfect balance of a sunny day with the chill of fall. I liked to think the weather represented what the cause of the cure walk was for to brighten the bone chilling disease of breast cancer. It was truly inspiring to…
individuals with different types of group events to gather some contrasting examples of effective group communication. The first example was with Mimi, my coworker and a member of a wedding party who explained to me the functions of her group, and how they communicated to plan and organize the wedding parties, as well as ceremony. Mimi explained that they used visual cues, such as body language to evaluate the other members of the group while organizing the upcoming events. The norms of the…
