Existence of God

Well, okay, it's not incorrect, but it's flawed and by a mathematician's standards: morally wrong. I'm sure at one point you boringly learned the order of operations. These are the set of rules that tell you whether you should do multiplication before division or addition before subtraction to get the correct answer on your math problem. 1) Parentheses (brackets) 2) Exponents x^x 3) Multiplication 2*2 4) Division 2/2 5) Addition 2+2 6) Subtraction 2-2 7) Get the right answer :) Except, you…

In Richard Montoya’s monologue “Chicano on the Storm,” Montoya is dressed in a straightjacket and seems to be confined in a room. In the beginning of the monologue, the audience sees Montoya talking to Enigma, the nurse. From their dialogue, the audience learns that they are in Montoya’s mind which is “confused and full of rage” (Montoya, Ricardo, and Herbert 93) because, as they later find out, Montoya is having an identity crisis. He asks Enigma, “what is going to happen to the word…

The exact definition of eternal is “without beginning or end; lasting or existing forever.” Anyone could read this definition and understand exactly what it means. However, it is not as easy to say that each person individually is going to have the same thoughts and feelings once the word is fully comprehended. The human brain, as is, is far too complex and well rounded for this to ever happen. In a world consisting of seven billion people, each and every one of us is different. We have our own…

Occurrences happened because that was the nature of various effects such as volcanoes erupting or harsh waves. At that time, humans did not exist and where balance did not play a vital role for the earth’s well-being. The creation of the landscape came to existence naturally, which later paved the way to civilization and its habitats. Each organisms played a role during that time from molten lava creating land to the separation of land due to continental plates drifting and erosion. When humans…

It was Albert Einstein who said that the only way to live life was as though everything is a miracle. It is a miracle that I am able to walk from my bed and see the sunlight through my window. A life well lived is a life which has affected many other people in positive ways, but also a life in which dreams and goals are sought after with no fear or hesitation. A well lived life is also one that has been done with good intentions and positive perspectives. Life is weird. We can plan, and plan…

Traditionally, epistemology has been defined as the theory of knowledge in which the primary goal has been to obtain truth while avoiding false beliefs . Knowledge was defined and universally accepted to be “Justified True Belief”. However, this was challenged when Edmund Gettier released a 1963 paper which demonstrated that justified true beliefs are intuitively not sufficient for knowledge due to epistemic luck. This sudden revelation triggered “a cottage industry of knowledge-analysers” ,…

Their arguments have transcended time and managed to be of relevance even today, because we are still in the same state of unknowing as there were, regardless of all the technological advances in our time. Because the universe and reality is vast existence to explore. With regards, to plausibility, Heraclitus’ philosophies seem closer to the reality that I live in because our society as a whole has accepted the idea of change and motion as part of the core fundamental laws of physics. However,…
