why the world is filled with evil‚ anything bad ranging from bullying to natural disasters‚ has motivated atheists‚ those who reject God and His existence‚ to bring forward an argument called “The Problem of Evil”. Due to much debate on the topic‚ theists‚ those who believe in God‚ have tried to resolve the problem of evil by presenting multiple theodicies—attempts to justify or defend God in the face of evil. In this paper‚ I will present counterarguments to two popular theodicies‚ the “Free Will Defense”

The Future of Diplomacy HANS J. MORGENTHAU FOUR TASKS OF DIPLOMACY Diplomacy [is] an element of national power. The importance of diplomacy for the preservation of international peace is but a particular aspect of that general function.

is truly accountable for mankind’s destiny‚ yet the answers are unclear. On many occasions‚ man has no control over his fate and destiny‚ but in other instances‚ a man’s destiny exists as a result of his actions and decisions. There is an element of free will. Consequently‚ The Iliad exhibits that human beings sometimes control their fate. In The Iliad the god’s destiny is steered much like mortal’s‚ except for one specific distinction. The supreme beings cannot die and therefore have no destiny.

Position Paper I am writing on Free will and determinism. I am supporting that free will exist and that we control and are responsible for what we do. I will argue that free will better fits our life‚ than determinism. Determinism is basically some other power controls everything in life‚ and what we do. Even though people will argue that God controls everything we do‚ which I agree with‚ but the fact that everything is already pre-determined in our life‚ I don’t support. I don’t support determinism

In the futures markets‚ there is no assurance that a liquid market may exist for offsetting a commodity contract at all times. Some future contracts and specific delivery months tend to have increasingly more trading activity and have higher liquidity than others. The most useful indicators of liquidity for these contracts are the trading volume and open interest.
