After several weeks of analyzing moral theory‚ the divine command theory prevails. Jehovah created us (page 7‚ Column 1) intrinsically valuable‚ in that we are each a temple‚ in and of ourselves. (Page 71 Column 1) Proven scientific knowledge includes the fact that in the 1769 King James Version (Isaiah 40:22)‚ undisputedly references the circle of the earth. This is tantamount to believing in a higher being‚ which is in perfect accordance with the divine command theory‚ in that‚ the date of the

The Traditionalist vs. the Modernist We live in a society that is continuously surrounded with conflict between religion and way of life. From the very beginning of time‚ there has always been a battle between the values of religion and those of the individual. During the era of Jesus‚ they were in a dilemma of following the basic laws of Judaism that had already become outdated by about two thousand years or those of the Romans.

It can be argued that the universe is too complex for evolutionary theory to explain it with reference to intelligent design. This states that some organisms are way too complex to have been created through evolution. For example‚ if you take away a feature from the eye it will not be able to see thus it would not have evolved as all its features were needed for it to be able to be classed as an eye. Secondly‚ Paley’s watch analogy explains how the world shows design and order which proves that

Biology through the Eyes of Faith Richard T. Wright This is an awesome book. It describes the outlook of biology not only through the eyes of faith‚ but from a Christian theistic point of view. In Biology through the Eyes of Faith‚ it explains the difference between a scientist’s perception of nature oppose to a Christian’s perception. Scientists say the world evolved which conflicts with the theistic view‚ which says the world came about through the creator God. In chapter 1‚ Professor Wright speaks

According to Ron’s notes his excavation took place on the northern extension of Mount Moriah. The north side of Mount Moriah is a very Stoney and dry area; certain parts of the mountain have lowered the ground to that of a trench.

This side of the mountain is also where Jesus was buried in the “garden tomb”. Ron believed that the escarpment of this side of the mountain was

The Accuracy of Inherit the Wind The movie Inherit the Wind gave an ample‚ in depth view as to what the Scopes Trial was all about. The film uses information about the trial and the law it was about‚ but most times misconstrues that information. The film does give a great perspective as to what the actual trial was all about‚ but it is not very factual. The movie portrays some in a positive way and others in a negative way‚ but overall the movie Inherit the Wind get its point across about the Scopes

For me‚ one of the most fascinating stories in the Bible is the story of Joseph. God gave Joseph a dream. At first‚ Joseph didn’t understand what it meant. Oh‚ he had an idea and he thought he understood‚ but it took twenty-seven years to see what God’s dream for him really was all about. It was very different from what he first imagined. Joseph was one of twelve brothers in a dynamically dramatic and slightly dysfunctional family—kind of like that movie‚ Cheaper By The Dozen‚ only without the
