    Expensive universally accepted claim that language and thought socialize in many significant ways. Yet, a great predicament exists about the idea that every specific terminology has its own effect on the thought and action of its audio speakers. On the other palm, anyone who has discovered more than one terminology is struck by the various ways in which dialects differ from the other person.

    of God has been formulated as a philosophy." Thomas. H. Huxley coined the words "agnosticism" and "agnostic" in the 19th century. Robert Flint comments that Huxley could have used the words "skepticism" and "skeptic" instead of inventing new terminologies. In fact, Norman Geisler introduces "the skepticism of David Hume" as a starting point of agnosticism. It seems that Huxley did not give a serious thought to the meaning of the words since he claimed that he knew something like his…

    Thus, on one hand, we find that dogmatic monotheism proclaims God to be the one true God among many false deities. On this level “the true, authentic God, teaches the Old Testament, is always just the unique, he who is unique”. Hence, the plurality of false deities stands opposed to the one true God. On the other hand, if we understand philosophically the notion of God, we cannot but conclude that all representations of God are manifestations of the same reality. This, follows because the…

    Mayle household, demonstrate an opposing lifestyle to that of Tony and the English that Mayle greatly admires. He details that after witnessing the disciplines of the local workers, “[he and his wife] we made a conscious effort to become more philosophical in [their] our attitude to time, to treat days and weeks of delays in the Provençal fashion—that is, to enjoy the sunshine and to stop thinking like city people” (45). Mayle’s intent to pursue the life motto of the workers, or their disregard…

    creativity. As language develops with time, Orwell stresses that using “pretentious language” is just another tool for creating a false sense of sophistication, and it fails to create easy understanding of a message. Language is fluid and using outdated terminology regresses the process; a nation and society grows only if the individuals can progress with time and old phrases fails to aid that process.

Rather, reality is viewed as process of interpretation, and it is through experience and interpretation that an…
