Competitive exclusion principle

Much of the world believes that God is nonexistent. Much of society deems the splendor and majesty of creation to be nothing more than a coincidence. In A Designed Universe, author Robert C. Newman, Ph.D., covers four topics: The Right Chemistry, The Right Environment, The Right Universe, and finally, Explaining the Design. In those four sections, Dr. Newman describes the perfection of God’s creation, and how life would not exist had it been created even slightly differently. From the amount…

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…

The Doctors’ Trial was the first of twelve trials for war crimes of German doctors, held by United States authorities, they came as a result of the crimes and atrocities committed during the Holocaust against not only Jews, but also Poles, Russians and Roma Gypsies. It took a while for these criminal proceedings to actually be set up and put in motion because trials like these had never really been done before. A few different methods were discussed including Joseph Stalin’s proposal to execute…

Uncertainty about the workings of the natural world has driven people for centuries into making new discoveries and theories about the way things work. Doubt from other people has driven people to challenge these discoveries and either prove them wrong and continue the search for the right answers, or ultimately, to prove them right when more experiments fail to prove the theory wrong. It seems humans in general hold an insatiable curiosity about the way things work and how things are but want…

Well, I went to Sick Boss at the Lido. I first passed Chris 's place, and detected some light, very faint, and, anyway, I have no way of knowing if he indeed still resides there. I know that if he sighted me his conspiratorial mind would immediately jump to extreme ideas. But this only dilutes my message and intention with negativity; the reason I passed it is because I am interested in him, and hope he is well. Passing Chris 's necessarily means I overshot the Lido, consequently my arrival at…

Frederic Clemson Howe once said, “War demands sacrifice of the people. It gives only suffering in return.” This explains the situations of Robert Ross, Werner Heisenberg, and Niels Bohr. They all sacrificed, which only lead to suffering for all of them. Although one is a coming of age novel about a WW1 soldier and the other is a play about an imaginary meeting of WWII scientists, both The Wars by Timothy Findley and Copenhagen by Michael Frayn explore the ways in which war affects individuals…

Because God always existed in reality and understanding, created the universe and things in the universe, God is also the Intelligent Designer (will use Creator as a shorter term). If something exists, it has an intended purpose because it was created by God, who neither requires or needs a purpose to exist nor to have a purpose for things to exist. All things that exist or will exist in the universe were created by God for a puipose. Whether a specific or undefined purpose is irrelevant to…

This paper looks to discuss Nozick’s experience machine. The paper begins by reconstructing Nozick’s experiment, and explains its consequences. The paper then argues that the experiment is actually consistent with hedonism, as by expanding on the definition of pleasure we see that by not plugging in we are actually doing the more pleasurable act. Nozick experiment asks us to imagine a machine that once connected to allows for us to experience the greatest possible pleasures. The machine then…

1. What CHPCA guiding principles did you see enacted? • GP1. Family focused – when Lee takes over providing Marvin, her father, with care after Bessie was not successful at finding a bone marrow donor. • GP4. Accessible – Bessie and Lee were able to provide their father with at home care. • GP7. Knowledge-Based – upon realization that Bessie was sick with leukemia, her physician, Dr. Wally suggested that she take chemotherapy treatments to manage its metastatic behaviours. 2. What CHPCA…

Colleges and universities have placed an emphasis on the importance of internationalizing their campuses in recent years to aid in producing 21st century global citizens (Osfield & Terrel, 2009; Jackson, 2008). To be competitive in the global marketplace, it is increasingly necessary to possess intercultural competence skills (Sample, 2012). Intercultural competence is defined as, “…the personal ability needed to communicate and work efficiently in intercultural every-day…
