Spiral Universe

objection as to why these arguments cannot be considered concrete in the case for God. These proofs that he speaks of are the Cosmological argument, which argues for a creator, the Teleological argument or the argument from design, which argues that the universe shows signs of intelligent design and divine purpose. However, in response to McCloskey’s claims, there are things that can be said in support of these arguments or proofs. The account…

There are many theories that support it could've been prevented and that it couldn’t be prevented. World War II was one of the bloodiest wars, if not the bloodiest, in all of the wars ever. The total military deaths that came from the war were roughly around 19 million people killed (Appleby 519). It featured great Allied leaders: Franklin Delanor Roosevelt, Winston Churchill, and Joseph Stalin. The Axis leaders consisted of Adolf Hitler, Benito Mussolini, and Hideki Tojo. These six men were…

Doctor Faustus, written by Christopher Marlowe is about a man who sells himself to the devil. The reasoning behind this trade to the devil is for power, fame and knowledge. This story explains his time, and experience in selling himself to the devil. This play was a well known play at the time. It struck people because it was a rebellious decision the main character made, especially with the historical and social events at occurring at this time. The historical impact from what was socially…

The idea of time-travel is very interesting and many have attempted to find way in which it can be done. Before thinking about time-travel however, time itself must be defined. Is it all readily set out with everything existing simultaneously, or is it simply an ever-changing present moment and nothing more? It must also be said that the past and the future are very different concepts, despite appearing similar. Because of this, time-travel to the past and the future must be considered…

The design argument basis it’s argument around the fact that the universe is perfectly fit for human habitation. There could have been many different possibilities on the outcome of the universe, but it just so happen to fit. Many things could have been extremely different such as: law of physics, different arrangement of planet and/or stars, may have begun with bigger or smaller big bang, and many of the planets in our universe could not have allowed for human habitation. Or…

There are several different anthropic coincidences that explains the overall reason for the belief of the Anthropic principle and how the universe is precisely designed for the purpose of human life, evolution and survival. One of the many different anthropic coincidences is “The Strength of the Strong Nuclear Force”. This theory says that if the strong nuclear force had fluctuated even microscopically stronger or weaker, then the world would have never existed. The strong force holds nuclei…

Origin Stories A creation story is any story that tells of a creation, these stories can be as specific as the creation of a new invention or they can be as broad as the creation of everything (Creation Story Definition). Many creation stories have points that are very similar and point out that it is very possible that many of these events are true since they are in common. There are also many differences in these stories as well. This paper however is going to detail the similarities and…

ultimate cause for the universe would suggest that they do, in some respect, acknowledge God’s existence. The cosmological argument states that there must be a first cause for the existence of the universe and that everything in the universe is contingent on that first cause. For Christians, that first cause is God, the creator of the universe and everything in it. McCloskey suggests that the world just happened, the Big Bang possibly, but what caused the Big Bang? If the universe is…

Nature is derived from our understanding to what has already been here before us. Nature can be the plants, animals, land, and other sights or creations of the planet Earth. Just look at our community that has natural things that have already been there. When I go to an area that I believe to be nature, I go to the Greenway Park; specifically an area by the Arboretum here in our town of Yakima, WA. This particular area is nature to me because of all the things born here, not put here by humans.…

systems, interstellar space, and the intergalactic space during the journey here across the Milky Way Galaxy. In essence, cosmic consciousness is an awareness of the connections amongst all matter in the universe. Furthermore, it is a state of achieving pure knowledge of everything in the universe here and now without having to travel anywhere. There is no separation into distinct celestial bodies or human bodies since we are the same. Divisions, borders, boundaries, fences, and walls will…
