As for the science part, the big bang theory is what created us inside of an even larger universe. The way the earth is on a rotational sequence with other planets it proves that we circle around the…
Scientific Analysis Paper 02 – Designing Experiments Some might read the CNN article “Are music and happiness linked” and think that going to concerts regularly makes you a happier person, but it would be wrong to assume that without further scientific evidence. Instead of causation (one causing the other) it could be just a correlation (just happens to go together). Just as Dr. Weinberg mentioned in the article, maybe people that are happier tends to express their emotion through music and dancing. To find out if going to concerts regularly can really make you happier I would conduct an experiment, where I would monitor the happiness level of about three hundred people for over six weeks.…
In this paper I will analyze the argument of the “Fine-Tuned Universe”, describe what it means, show how an opponent would argue that intelligent design isn’t the best explanation, and also provide my own view on this argument from my theist view. Have you ever wondered how the universe got here? How everything perfectly fell into place, and how you’re here today? The Fine Tuned Universe argument may help you better understand. This argument is a version of the teleological argument, which is an argument for an intelligent creator, that basically suggests there are many very specific things that make life possible, and if any of these very specific things were to be altered, life as we know it would be highly unlikely to exist.…
In the landmark decision of Kitzmiller v. Dover Area School District, Judge John E. Jones soundly argues that intelligent design (ID) does not represent a scientific theory, but rather a religious argument whose teaching in public schools violates the Establishment Clause in the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. This argument exhibits both logical validity and true premises in its categorization of the theory as non-scientific, thus being truly sound. In essence, the decision states that ID fails in two major areas – (1) it implies, and even arguably requires, the existence of a supernatural entity; and (2) it entails a false dichotomy in the vein of earlier creationist ideas. Jones argues that each of these individual premises precludes…
Today I will try to explain the Cosmological Argument . The Cosmological Argument are two major arguments that explain or existence from a philosophical stand point. At the heart of these arguments lie the questions are “why does anything exist”, and “why something rather than nothing”? It also makes the point that unless God exists all other questions are unanswerable. The cosmological argument is divided into two sides as I state earlier, The Kalama Argument and, “The Argument of Contingent Existence.…
When I took the IAT test, I did not receive the results I expected. My IAT results resemble that I moderately to strongly favor whites over African Americans. I decided to retake the IAT test because I was so astonished by my results the first time through. I would like to believe that I do not favor whites nor blacks, but in reality, I cannot disagree with the way my results came out. I believe these results represent my upbringing.…
The origins of the cosmological argument comes from Plato and Aristotle in the 4th and 3rd centuries BC they believed that the universe needs a craftsmen however they did not say that the craftsmen was God just that there needed to be an unmoved mover because there needs to be a firs cause to chain. The idea behind this was that we should look at the simplest explanation for the creation on the universe. Aristotle also argued that the prime mover could not fit in the physical world…
Attending Clark Advanced Learning Center would be an honor. I would love to take on the responsibilities of the coursework and be a part of the excellent classes. I have set a high bar for my future, and hope that Clark will be a rung in my ladder to success. I want to be able to push myself to the maximum as a student and reach my full potential.…
At a young age majority of us grew up believing that there is a higher being above us that created us, that shaped our lives to be where it is now, and that being is known as god. When we were a child, we did not have a choice whether we truly believed in the existence of God. We were told what to believe and never questioned it that belief. In this essay, I will analyze the existence of god between “Does God Exist?” by Ernest Nagel and “Why God Allows Evil” by Richard Swinburne. Although Nagel rejects the existence of God, he establishes two causes for why God exists.…
After the Supreme Court ruled that the teaching of creationism is unconstitutional, opponents of evolution came up with a new strategy to bring their theory to America’s education system. Creationist revived their theory by renaming creationism Intelligent Design. Their new strategy to bring creation into American public schools was to argue that creationism is scientific like evolution and should be taught in the scientific curriculum. The creationist argue that their theory is scientific, “Intelligent Design theorist argue that certain physical systems, including biological ones, exhibit what is known as specified complexity, and that specified complexity is best accounted for by intelligent agency” (Lutz 2013, 684). Intelligent Design theorist…
Clarissa Eashmond November 14, 2017 CD 351 Theorist Paper Theory, it defined by Merriam-Webster, in relation to the development of children, as a plausible or scientifically acceptable general principle or body of principles offered to explain phenomena. It is also defined as an idea or set of ideas that is intended…
What is prime reality – the really real? I was thinking ‘What is reality’? I decided to look up the definition. “Reality is the conjectured state of things as they actually exist, rather than as they may appear or might be imagined. In a wider definition, reality includes everything that is and has been, whether or not it is observable or comprehensible.…
TOPIC: Existence of God Thesis: Humans have long struggled with the questions of life; why are we here, and how did we come into being. In the search for answers to these matters, societies have attempted to provide solutions, in the form of supreme beings. However, it will be argued, that God, as defined as a single entity that created all life, does not exist because the universe developed from the Big Bang, human life evolved over millennia, and previously unexplainable mysteries were attributed to God until scientific advancements could provide other explanations. Reason 1: Throughout history, scientists have conducted research into the origins of life on earth and have determined the most scientifically supportable evidence lies in the Big-Bang Theory.…
(1) In your own words, define, then compare and contrast the different theories of intelligence that are presented in the textbook, including Spearman 's G Factor, Gardner 's Multiple Intelligences, Sternberg 's Triarchic Theory and the concept of Emotional Intelligence. Sternberg proposed that there consist three types of intelligence: analytical, creative and practical. Analytic intelligence consists of problem-solving; creative intelligence deals with new ideas, new ways of problem-solving and processing certain aspects of information; practical intelligence, in other words, "street smarts," involves the ways people get through life. In general, these three types of intelligence work systematically to solve problems.…
Our history on this planet will be the reason why we answer these questions. The study of cosmology and modern science has lead to scientific theories that involve natural science it wasn 't just some created belief…
