Fictional universe

caused conflict with the church because they believed that the Pope or the church was the closest thing to God and they believed that they belonged in the center of the universe so they thought that this theory was wrong and that the Geocentric theory was right. The Geocentric theory places the earth in the center of the universe (spielvogel). The Heliocentric theory may make believers of the Geocentric theory think otherwise because it is being proven by science so this may cause the church to…

A majority of people believe that ancient creation myths are weird and don’t tell us anything about real history of life, but I don’t. Personally, I think ancient creation myths basically created our life stories and without them we wouldn’t have anything to back up our history. Creation myths represent natural occurrences in the world and without the similarities creation myths wouldn’t be important. The Egyptian, Babylonian, and Hebrew creation myths symbolize real events that have happened…

The immeasurable space surrounding the Coruscant-Metello trade route was just as busy as it usually was. All things considered, no irregularities usually appeared on the route, yet the regular inhabitants tasked with exploring barely bat an eye, regardless of a few ships coming from the distant core worlds. Presently, peculiar for a brief time, the deep chasm of space gave way for the hull of a small republic transporter just above the expansive orbit of the planet; jumping out of hyperspace for…

Galileo struggled with censorship and religious critics for his works which conflicted significantly with medieval teachings. One argument Galileo made to demonstrate the compatibility of Copernicanism with scripture is based on the practices of medieval theologians. He argues that past theologians have interpreted Aristotelian teachings on astronomy to better align with scripture, so there should be no reason he cannot do the same. Galileo attempted to describe his viewpoint as “divinely…

scientific method is the best method for determining what the universe around us is and how it works, this is provable based on the amount of evidence science has provided for the claims it has, while other methods rely on “faith” which by definition means you believe something without evidence. BP1: The scientific method has led to the conclusion that based on what we know about the state of the universe today we can demonstrate that the universe must have began with a singularity(a…

The Great Flood in “Genesis 6-9” vs. “The Epic of Gilgamesh” There are many contradictions about the validity of stories in the Hebrew Bible. For example, “The Epic of Gilgamesh” has a few scenes that are similar to that of the Hebrew Bible. One scene in particular is Utanaphistim’s account of the Great Flood. The contradictions arise because Gilgamesh is dated as being written before the Hebrew bible. Therefore, The Epic of Gilgamesh’s flood has a few similarities to that of Noah’s flood in…

Although creation myths were based on the beliefs of many different tribes, most of these myths share many moral similarities. In particular, the tribes of the Iroquois and the Hopi shared myths about the creation of the world which included many similar and different morals and beliefs. The creation myths “The World on the Turtle’s Back” from the Iroquois tribe and “The Four Creations” from the Hopi people share values such as the view of animals being very intelligent and the patriarchy that…

The main argument of Henry John Drewal's article “Mermaids, Mirrors and Snake Charmers: Igbo Mami Wata Shrines” is that Mami Wata shrines, and the ideas surrounding them, were created from many outside influences, reinterpreted and repurposed. While many of the imagery, beliefs and practices surrounded Mami Wata are borrowed from other cultures and beliefs, they are not merely copies or imitations of those beliefs. Instead, Mami Wata worshippers have created something entirely new and unique by…

argument, that Sober mentioned in the text is we cannot use induction, because the number of sample for the design argument is zero. The only universe we have ever experienced is the one we inhabit, and we have not seen our universe being made by an intelligent designer nor have we seen an intelligent designer make the organisms that exist in our universe. This is the problem that all human being can tell with their experience. To conclude, the design argument is for the existence of God, or an…

Blue Highways were written by William Least Heat-Moon. It was first published in 1982. There are 10 or 11 chapters if you include the afterword chapter. The other book I chose was called Travels with Charley by John Steinbeck. It was first published in 1962. There are 3 chapters I believe in the book they are called part 1, part 2 and part 3. The book Blue Highways doesn’t have an intro or a prologue, but it has a foreword page and it talks about what you will be reading. The book Travels with…
