Galatians 6:7 Be not deceived; God is not to be mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. The teachings of the Holy Bible teach us through scripture that what a man shall sow he shall also reap meaning that whether a person does good works or evil works to others the same shall be returned and done back to them. Such scriptures show that exactly how we act in our life will be done exactly back to us in this life and in the eternities. Be ye therefore merciful and you shall…
Often described as being “one of the greatest names in the history of human thought,” Sir Isaac Newton was an English astronomer, scientist, and mathematician (Domski 1). His discoveries dealing with optics, gravity, and math greatly influenced the world and the effects are lasting still today. Sir Isaac Newton, though widely remembered for his mathematics and scientific accomplishments, was a man of God, whose faith can clearly be seen throughout his life. Newton was born on Christmas day in…
challenged. As Albert Einstein, a German theoretical-physicist, introduced his theory of relativity, time became another phenomenon and mostly likely, acquired more definitions. In addition, Einstein’s suspicion not only changed the studies of science and physics but even art and literature. Pericles Lewis explains in his Cambridge Introduction to Modernism that Albert Einstein’s theory of relativity transformed the modernist conception of time’s linear progression into the notion…
of the seventeenth and eighteenth century. He was known as the last "universal genius," who made insightful and important contributions to the fields of metaphysics, epistemology, logic, philosophy of religion, as well as mathematics, physics, geology, and history. One of the significant renaissance men of western thoughts. As an inventive and noble philosopher, Leibniz is appointed with developing the philosophical reasoning of optimism. It is permissible to speak of Leibniz's optimism.…
Within “Frost at Midnight,” Samuel Coleridge validates the importance of self-reflection through solitude. Coleridge creates a scenic image of the world around the speaker during the time of his solitude. During his time alone, the speaker reflects about his childhood and the aspiration he has for the infant child sleeping in the cottage. The importance of solitude demonstrated in “Frost at Midnight” by the feelings the speaker has, the time intervals from present to past, and the speaker’s…
The Value of Practice in Mathematics and Natural Sciences With respect to two areas of knowledge, consider the claim “Without application in the world, the value of knowledge is greatly diminished." Knowledge is a treasure; without it, we would not be where we are. The only reason why the human race has lasted so long is because of the application of knowledge. What is knowledge? Knowledge is the accumulation of ideas and concepts in someone’s mind. Knowledge can be taught or can come from…
No one would have believed, in the last years of the 19th century, that physics was heading for a crisis. It seemed like all the large questions had been answered. The behaviour of bodies, from asteroids to galaxies, was predicted by Sir Isaac Newton 's laws of gravity and motion. Magnetism, electricity and light were linked by James Clerk Maxwell’s Equations. The understanding of the atom had reached the plum pudding stage, where an atom was a globe of 'stuff ' with the positive and negative…
specifically physics and chemistry. While my decision varied from veterinarian to author and everything in between from elementary school to my freshman year of high school, I remembered the passion those nights with my father had sparked so long ago, and my major seemed clear: astronomy, or as I later realized, astrophysics. Astronomy is a field of science that studies space, and astrophysics is a branch that focuses on the physical and chemical aspects. Since I had always loved chemistry,…
Introduction I would describe myself as an engineering enthusiast, and have wanted to create things ever since I can remember. While it’s really hard to pin-point exactly why I’ve always wanted to become an engineer. I love the engineers give a purpose to mathematics and science, and use them to create the tools of our world. I want to experience the intellectual challenges engineers face. Engineers are paid well, and encouraged by everyone to solve the biggest problems of today. This report…
