Immaculate Conception

Medieval scholars tended to work deductively. They would start from a little number of premises and continue by consistent conclusions from the premises, the way that you build a proof in geometry or variable based math. They were splendidly judicious and impeccably willing to question and test old thoughts, however they mentioned negligible utilization of objective fact in many fields. The Renaissance involved a different attitude about the world, one which focussed upon the human being…

“There are too many magical things happening in nature for there not to be divine influence!” Ferlinghetti joined the argument. “Does that magic include a man being born of an immaculate conception, and his resurrection after being crucified, when no one has ever come back to life on this planet? And if Christ was sacrificed and resurrected by God for the atonement of our sins, why is there still so much war, some of which is waged over…

Some states are already creating strict laws. Rhode Island has created a law that says 80% of packaging that businesses use must be recycled (In the Bin). I think that sets a good example for the other countries and we should have similar laws. The only measly law that Missouri has is “It is illegal to discard a motor vehicle battery of other lead-acid battery” (recycling Laws Map). This is a step in the right direction, but it still is not good enough. We need better and stricter laws, and…

Gloucester acts on emotion, without thinking through the consequences of such, which is evident in the immaculate conception of his “bastard son”. He is also gullible, he believes his sons to be as trusting and open as he is. Once reading the letter, Gloucester immediately acts on emotion, the outrage and betrayal felt towards his son. He believes Edmond almost straight…

The strength of Buddhism comes from what is know as The Three Jewels, these being The Buddha, The Dharma, and the Sangha. Buddha is the central being whose story of how he became The Buddha, and what he did right after enlightenment, sets up the foundation for what it has come to be a very popular Religion. Even though there are several versions of his story, the main message remains the same and illustrates specific important Buddhist concepts and beliefs. It is my intention to demonstrate…

Elegance, delicacy and exquisiteness are three words which sums up the perspective of the Early Renaissance. During this movement there were many influential painters. Extraordinary works of art were created during tumultuous times. There was an immense amount of outside beliefs from society which had an impact on the art that was created. One artist in particular who dealt with these ideologies was Alessandro Botticelli. Botticelli was an Italian painter of the Early Renaissance who worked…

#1 In the pre-commencements of life I am or was one of four angels conceived in heaven or the outer sphere of metaphysical creationist zone, I laughed out loud to myself, mumbo-jumbo, you know. I was conceived 500 years before the creation of humans. Before Adam, Lilith and Eve’s vicious love triangle. Divine Being told me the only reason he conceived us divine being was to aid him and to keep him company. He conceived Lucifer first and she was beautiful, he conceived her as an equal to him…

McTeigue’s complaint was that the lyrics imply that Mary was a sinner who needed to be delivered from her sins.
