the book of Psalms‚ Psalm 139 is perhaps one of the most sublime declarations of the omnipresence of God found in the Bible. Attested to David‚ Psalm 139 is classified as an “Individual Hymn of Thanksgiving” 1 a genre in which God is praised for the singers’ delivery from oppression and various life-threatening illnesses while also acting as a “Wisdom” psalm‚ celebrating the creative goodness of God. While the actual date of the text remains unclear as it is notoriously difficult to determine a date

It was often the backdrop which he used for describing human tendencies and carving pathways for human nature. “The best passage on God’s death is offered by Nietzsche in The Gay Science in section 125‚ entitled “The Madman”. There Nietzsche describes a man who enters the town market or bazaar and cries out loudly‚ “I seek God! I seek God!” He encounters

Jaw Crushers are designed to impact on a rock particle placed between a fixed and a moving plate (jaw). The faces of the plates are made of hardened steel. Both plates could be flat or the fixed plate flat and the moving plate convex. The surfaces of both plates could be plain or corrugated. The moving plate applies the force of impact on the particles held against the stationary plate. Both plates are bolted on to a heavy block. The moving plate is pivoted at the top end (Blate crusher) or at the

Let’s begin with his notorious declaration that “God is dead” (first in The Gay Science‚ 1872). Secular thinking is a commonplace today‚ but in Nietzsche’s time this declaration was strikingly prophetic.

Many philosophers have tried to create theodicies to prove the existence of God. Whilst some philosophers have concluded that God does not exist

The very essence of Man‚ all his values and his beliefs‚ are wrapped up in this question‚ "Does God exist?" Most of us were brought up to believe that God does exist‚ and as such it
