Paper “Burying the White Gods: New Perspectives on the Conquest of Mexico‚” by Camilla Townsend‚ hits the points of why the Native Americans were submissive to the Spaniards. The thesis‚ in short‚ says that the Native Americans were not exactly conquered by the conquistadors. Instead‚ they thought the Cortes was a god‚ Quetzalcoatl. This in no way indicates the development‚ or lack thereof‚ in the Aztec society. The Aztecs invited the conquistadors into their society as gods; they were not conquered

the classical Christian theological theory‚ people ’s need for believing in supernatural beings is caused by their fear of nature. This concept strikingly resembles the Marxist explanation - it also names fear as the main factor. If one reads Homer ’s "Iliad" and "Odyssey‚" and Virgil ’s "Aeneid"‚ he gets to realize that the ancient concept of people ’s interaction with Gods is totally deprived of fear in any form. In all three masterpieces‚ Gods are basically described as humans‚ with all their strengths

essay I decided to take on the second and third topics. I’ll first address and examine Anselm’s ontological argument for the existence of God while restating and critically examining Aquinas’s first argument for the existence of God. After I finish with that topic I will then take on Paley and his argument and whether or not it thoroughly proves the existence of God conceived as a supremely perfect being and why or why not this is. During this topic I will bring in Dawkins’ and Hume’s criticisms of

are the true characteristics of a god? Is the role of god only to create‚ or does god control fate? Has god given us a purpose or are we just simply here for his entertainment? I feel to look into ones beliefs of god‚ one must think beyond the barriers of organized religion. There is most likely more to god than the average view a person usually holds. The universe must have been created by the same god that created man. If it were only man to be created by god‚ then who created the vast area outside

Leibniz and the Existence of God The existence of God has always been a controversial subject though despite what others thought Leibniz did believe in the existence of God. Leibniz goes on attempting to explain God using a priori and a posteriori arguments and also proving God using monads. Leibniz’s a priori explanation of God is that the concept which everyone has of God is that of a most perfect being‚ a greater being cannot be conceived. Therefore God must really exist; otherwise He
