Because God always existed in reality and understanding, created the universe and things in the universe, God is also the Intelligent Designer (will use Creator as a shorter term). If something exists, it has an intended purpose because it was created by God, who neither requires or needs a purpose to exist nor to have a purpose for things to exist. All things that exist or will exist in the universe were created by God for a puipose. Whether a specific or undefined purpose is irrelevant to…
This paper looks to discuss Nozick’s experience machine. The paper begins by reconstructing Nozick’s experiment, and explains its consequences.

Transistors control a large current flowing through a semiconductor with the use of a small current. The creation of transistors was made possible by the Pauli exclusion principle, which states that each electron has a unique set of quantum numbers, and only two electrons can occupy the same orbital. Knowledge of the exclusion principle allowed developers like Shockley, Van Vleck, and Bardeen to create the transistor with semiconductors, which also rely heavily on quantum mechanics (they only…

accrual basis accounting the single most important issue in accrual basis accounting is that it requires transactions to be recorded at the times of their occurrence. An entire set of rules and regulations have grown up and ground these uncertainties in order to guide their accounting which means the accrual basis accounting is harder to perform than cash basis accounting. The accrual cash basis seemed the easiest to work with. That method records revenues and expenses when they are…
Over the past twenty-five years, the number of American students who participate in study has significantly grown. During the 2010-2011 school year, 273,996 students studied more than three times the number of students who participated in 1990 (Movassaghi, Unsal, & Göçer, 2014; Twombly, Salisbury, Tumanut, & Klute, 2012). More than half of the American students who studied abroad in 2009-2010 chose one of four European host countries; the United Kingdom, France, Italy, or Spain. Almost half…

Madoff 's investing firm. GAAP principles are put in place for companies to abide by so financial records are kept as accurate as possible. Not to mention, accurate financial statements provide information to future investors and shareholders to know the company financial standing. The Full Disclosure Accounting Principle says that if a business have a close relationship with a party that does a significant amount of business with it is a violation of the principle. The Wall Street Journal…
74) was once again cited, based on the authority, the court held that the alleged contract was uncertain, as there is no “objective criteria” for judging what is the reasonable quantity or price. Extending the argument, the court held that the uncertainty of the alleged contract proofs the lack of intention to form contract. Also, as M&S “deliberately” avoided concluding an expressed term, in order to maintain the business’s flexibility reflected the defendant’s lack of intention in forming a…
