Mathematics is often defined as the science that studies the relations and properties of geometrical figures, symbols and numbers. One of those numbers is Phi, an irrational number also known as the golden ratio, with an approximate value of Φ= 1.618033988749895… Phi has many applications in several fields of study, including natural science. Through this work we will explore different cases in which a relation between the number phi and God can be witnessed, hoping to call the attention of the…

Religion has been embedded in our culture system as histories and narrative. So what is religion, religion is a believe that concerns the cause, nature, and purpose of the universe, especially when considered as the creation of a superhuman agency.

I don’t remember ever asking where it all came from. I grew up in what was, for the most part, a highly educated and progressive environment with little exposure to much else – I remember many happy hours spent with those glossy DK children’s books and I’m sure I came across early humans at some point – but I don’t know that I was aware of anything but evolution until middle school. I had been introduced to the creation story from the bible in school, but with it came various Native American…

The History of the Development of the Four Fundamental Forces Nature has a total of four fundamental forces. The forces include gravitational, electromagnetic, strong nuclear and weak nuclear force. Gravitational force is the force of attraction between all masses. Every object in this universe is pulling upon other objects. Many scientists came up with logics to explain the science behind gravitational forces. The first one to try was Aristotle in around 330 BC. Aristotle believed Earth and…

Behe serves “as a senior fellow of the Discovery Institute’s Center of Science and Culture. “Behe is best known for his argument for irreducible complexity (IC)” (Wikipedia). “Behe's current research involves delineation of design and natural selection in protein structures” (Discovery Institute). He is current study “involves delineation of…

Our world is made of elements and combinations of elements called compounds. An element is a pure substance made of atoms that are all of the same type. At this given time, 116 elements are known, and roughly about 90 of these occur naturally. But how do we know what elements are in our universe?, Scientists have developed many theories as to why and how we know. These theories consist of mainly the Big Bang Theory and how it had created the first and lightest elements in our universe, or Red…

discovered that the real aim of realism is to explain the world as it really is, and instrumentalism strives for empirical adequacy, ignoring accuracy. Most people likely fall towards realism considering unobservable entities such as electrons or quarks are so widely believed in. However, like Ptolemy, it is not uncommon or contradictory to hold a mixture of these beliefs (DeWitt 75). It is completely possible to have realist attitudes towards some theories or subjects, and an anti-realist view…

Aristotle’s Four Causes in Science Explanation is basic human nature. It began as a way to pass blame onto another person, then onto God or gods. This changed with the ideas of Archimedes of Syracuse. Archimedes was a mathematician, physicist, and inventor who was responsible for the discovery of buoyancy and the invention of both the siege engine and screw pump. After his discoveries, the popular view on explanation was modified. Instead of divine powers intervening in the world, people…

Lesson 10 Review Questions 1. Puppies born in commercial breeding facilities (i.e. puppy mills) do not receive proper socialization; what are behavioral problems that may result later in life?

As a result of not getting socialization at a young age many problems can happen. The puppies could grow up and become afraid of everyone, become…

When Malala Yousafzai decided to write a journal for the BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation), she never thought that it would to lead to her near-death experience. The reason for her attack was simple; she fought for girls’ rights to go to school. No one had ever dared to try and do something so dangerous. The source of their fear came from the Taliban, an Islamic fundamentalist political movement which enforced harsh rules in Afghanistan. Malala had loved school, and decided that she needed…
