Limited Capacity – once a product is full or sold out there is no way to get more of the exact same product. In the example above, I’ve chosen to demonstrate what purchasing tickets looked like when they are beginning to sell out. Since buying from a section that is almost or completely booked is harder for a customer to get, selective seating would be quite difficult if a customer has an ideal area to seat in. For example, booking 2 tickets in the mid premium (orchestra) would cost $358.30, once booking those tickets nobody else that wishes to purchase those exact seats will be able to get those seats because they’ve already been purchased.…
Rabbi Abraham Isaac Hacohen Kook, also known as Rav Kook, has made contributions to the development and expression of the Jewish religion that were of absolute importance. He was born on September 8, 1865, in Griva, Latvia and died on September 1, 1935 in Jerusalem. In his time, he was the first Ashkenazic Chief Rabbi, founder of Religious Zionism and a renowned Torah scholar. Rav Kook was responsible for the term “Religious Zionism”, a divine scheme that established the state of Israel on strict Halakick grounds. He has envisaged Eretz Israel, the land promised to God’s people, as the “foundation upon which rests the throne of God in this world.” He saw it as a model state, existing on ethically pure conduct and policies, to serve as a “light for all nations.” He also developed the philosophies which formed the basis of Modern Orthodox Judaism. This enables Orthodox Jews to live a religious life in the secular world through the integration of traditional observance and values with tose of the secular world. This was done in 1924, when he set up the Mercaz Harev Kook Yeshiva in Jerusalem as a vessel for the implementation and promotion of both Religious Zionism and Modern Orthodoxy; it was also to train future rabbis. His writings were largely unpublished before his death, but they have since been distributed and studied. His contributions were so profound thus making him known as one of the most influential rabbis of the 20th century.…
In the book “ On Zion's Mount : Mormons, Indians, and the American Landscape” Jared Farmers argument is that early pioneers not only displaced and misunderstood the native peoples living the in West, but they also displaced and replaced their sacred, essential symbols with others and made a false history to support the sacredness of their newly chosen emblems. For example, they replaced Native Americans vital, life-giving, Utah Lake with the lifeless, unimportant and unworthy emblems that reminded them of home, because they did not then, nor do they now, understand the real importance of Native American places like Utah Lake.…

Mormonism is the predominant religious tradition of the Latter Day Saint movement of Restorationist Christianity. This movement was founded by Joseph Smith, Jr., in the 1820s. During the 1830s and 1840s, Mormonism gradually distinguished itself from traditional Protestantism. Mormonism today represents the new, non-Protestant faith taught by Smith in the 1840s. Mormonism in itself is its own religion. It has its own beliefs and customs. But it has some connections to other mainstream monotheistic religions. These religions are Judaism, Islam, and Christianity. Mormonism shares some commonalities with these religions and some differences.…

While it may have seemed like a joke to newcomers, Prince was completely serious. As a Jehovah's Witness, Prince was against swearing and took his religion seriously.…
There are hundreds of functional literacies. They can range from brain surgeons to plumbers and despite the popular misconception, they are all valuable. It sometimes takes deep self-examination to realize the things you are literate in. Through my own personal analysis, I have isolated the literacy that shapes my life, character, and goals: religion.…
Mormons believe strongly in the past life, even though the Bible says nothing about it. Mormons believe that before we lived here on earth, we were living and fellowshipping with the Father. They believe that in order to teach us to live by faith, God sent us to the earth in order for us to grow in our walk with Him. There are no verses found in the Bible that talk about pre-existence prior to our…

Religious intolerance has always been a trademark of Brazil despite the fact that since the year of 1891 the country was constitutionally declared a secular nation. With a population of more than 209 million, Brazil is mostly catholic (65%), and while Protestants (23%) have eased their way into being socially tolerated and accepted through the years every other religion is quite often rejected and frowned upon. This rejection makes it difficult for other religions to grow, but certainly not impossible. Currently, Brazil has nearly 1.5 million members of the Islamic faith and 1.3 million members of the Mormon faith. When looking at the social and political history behind the growth of Mormonism and Islamism in Brazil there are so many general…
Good morning Brothers and Sister, I was asked to give a talk today on choices. I heard a poem called side by side which reads…
Anti-Mormonism in America is a unique case of religious intolerance. The Mormons were discriminated almost only because of their religion and beliefs. In the early 1800s, most of the intolerance against the Mormons was violent. Although these violent actions were commonly inspired by the media. The attackers justified themselves by portraying Mormons as a threat to society and their leader as too powerful. The Mormons evaded conflict at first by moving west, but as tensions grew, they fought back harder and harder. Amongst their fellow Americans, they were functioning members of society and culturally identical. But even when the Mormons seemed to fit in so well, they were pushed away (Cater, para. 6).…
The first and most noticeable similarity is their monotheistic beliefs. The belief that only one God exists is written in the holy scriptures of each religion. For example, the fifth book of the Jewish Torah says “Hear, O Israel! The LORD is our God, the LORD is one! (Torah, Deuteronomy 6:4)”…
The Five Major Religions Are Fundamentally the Same Dave Sitek once said, “There are so many people in the world with so many different perspectives. But ultimately, at the heart of it, they’re people.” This quote about perspective can be applied to Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, and Buddhism; the five major world religions. Although all of the religions have a different perspective on the world, they are still fundamentally the same because of their perspectives on a good life, the afterlife, and the admiration of one central figure.…
