Why are there no stars during the day ? Even when I was young‚ I was always fascinated by the stars in the night sky. I always stare at them for I treated them as the most awesome things in the universe. Oh how they sparkle in the sky. The strange thing is that they always vanish during the day and I asked everybody‚ “Why is that?” After the sunset the stars become visible in the sky. When the darkness of sky increases‚ the number of stars and their brightness also increases. As the sun come

Who is God? A startling question that most people will answer yes to is: Does God exist? Websters Dictionary (Webster’s p. 412) defines God as the supreme being‚ seen as the omnipotent creator and ruler of the universe. Whereas a theologist describes him as God is the infinite and perfect spirit in whom all things have their source‚ support‚ and end. (Thiessen p. 55) Whatever the case the statistics from Multipoll CGI on the internet show that 86 percent believe that God exists. Probably

My current worldview from a Secular Humanism standpoint is one that is not based upon any religious information or beliefs but feels as a human being there are certain morals and values that one should have based upon the fact that you are a human. You do not need any instructions to show you how to be a good person or how to make decisions; that is what the laws in your state placed by the government is for: the only real information is what you find for yourself and if you are not able to prove

One of her main points is that society cannot hold the science of philosophy at a different stance than the natural sciences. Philosophy needs to have data and empirical

Anselm`s view about God is that his existence in our minds proves the existence of him in reality. Trying to prove that he does not in fact exist‚ contradicts the purpose‚ since as attempting to convince others that he does not exist‚ you recognize his being. As you attempt to argue against God while completely understanding the meaning of God‚ you recognize this idea of the “greatest being”. About “the fool who says in his heart“ that God doesn’t exist‚ Anselm argues that there are two ways for

Anselm’s argument did lead to objections as most do. The first was that of a Monk Named Gaunilo‚ who argued against Anselm’s ontological Argument with the use of the concept of a perfect island. Gaunilo argued that concept of a perfect island does not prove that the existence of an island. In this case that perfection does not imply ‘existence’. Gaunilo claims that if the word God was replaced with the words perfect island‚ then Anselm’s ontological argument would not conclude that the perfect island
