This view basically claims that God began the process of evolution within the context of created matter. Though God programmed the system, simple life forms were allowed to evolve into more complex life structures. During this entire process, God withdrew Himself from His creation, and allowed the ordained natural laws to guide the creative process. In this view, God is Creator of everything.…
The statement “God is omnipotent” raises more issues and complexities the any other three-word sentence, not least due to the disagreement over what omnipotent actually means. A long side this, numerous contradictions, incoherencies and philosophical problems arise, all of which lead me to conclude that man’s traditional conception of God is simply an impossibility.…

The Cosmological argument is an argument that attempts to prove the existence of God, it is also known as the causation argument which argues that as all events require a cause, if the universe is an event it must have a cause and that cause is God.…
It is interesting to see the “evolution” of these 3 worldviews. From the Naturalist who views everything as natural in it’s existence – you exist based on your senses and experiences alone to the Secular Humanist with their realization that humans are wonderful – great creatures with personalities and determinations, but it doesn’t matter…to the Atheistic Existentialist (AE) – who finally realizes that the innermost feelings and desires we have as humans do exist, but would be better off “killed” or cut out than to be nurtured and followed.…

In his works, the natural world is a constant representation of the willfulness, and strength of life, and the power and inevitability of death. In the natural world concepts such as life and death are able to take upon themselves, physical representations. The songs of birds singing in the morning could be a representation of life, while the ominous presence of a Great White Shark would be a representation of death. James Dickey uses animals as his representations of life and death.…

* It is also stated that Brahman is “the vast being hidden in the bodies of all creatures. He alone envelops everything as the Lord. …The whole universe is filled by this Person, to whom there is nothing superior, from whom there is nothing different.” (Bahagavad Gita 10.129) In other words, the Brahman is behind all changing appearances, and there is nothing superior or inferior.…
From reading Mary Rowlandson’s captivity narrative and other English-language sources relating to Metacom’s or King Philip’s War, one can derive a fairly clear understanding of how English participants viewed the origins and outcomes of the conflict as well as how they wanted posterity to interpret the war. The English did not try to show the indigenous side, but a critical reading of the sources can give us some clues to understand the indigenous experience. The Natives had contrasting cultural and psychological views from the European invaders that caused them to initiate and eventually lose King Philip’s War, leaving the participants…
There are many theories about how the universe, earth, and humans came into existence. Some aim to prove the existence of God, that a large explosion created all life, or even that everything has just always existed. One of these theories works to answer questions about creation and prove the existence of the Christian God; this theory is known as the Teleological argument. To expand my basis of knowledge on this subject I consulted Matthew Esters, who recently wrote about the same topic.…
One of the most influential beings of our time if not the most influential being of our time is God. God is known my several names including: Allah, Yahweh, The Holy Trinity, Jah, Maasai, Ishvara, Baquan, Kisaski, of course there are many other but these are the majority of names. “We find the idea of God equally in ancient Israelite folk religion, Christian theology, modern philosophy of religion, and in the recent debates about the “intelligent design” that the world supposedly manifests.” (Talkreason, 2007). In Western culture, the word God refers to one superlative holy being, the divine unity of definitive realism and of decisive righteousness. God is understood to have created the complete universe, to rule over it, and to bring it to its completion. The belief in one God as the creator and ruler of the universe, without rejection of revelation and belief in the existence of a god or gods is the definition of Theism and begins the history of God.…
