Some believe in absolute truth‚ while others believe truth is relative. I believe truth is not absolute when it comes to the names of physical things. Nevertheless‚ I do believe truth is absolute when it comes to moral things. Aside from those‚ I believe that God is absolutely true. First‚ from the time someone is born to their death‚ every human is

Stories frequently consist of a main character attempting to accomplish some great deed. In order to accomplish that deed‚ the character must overcome great physical and/or mental challenges. The purpose of overcoming such deeds is often driven by the character’s need to prove self worth‚ overcome evil‚ or even fight their own mortality.

Progress of the Absolute Hegel: The progress of consciousness towards Fichte Despite the opposition between Kant and Fichte’s attempts to autonomize human existence‚ they both maintained an essentially dualistic point of view.

Is justice absolute? Justice in itself isn’t always just; it’s just a lid put on issues so we can close it‚ seal it off and chuck it away: we can ‘move on’. People say justice has been achieved when the bad guy goes to jail‚ but this isn’t so; justice just means someone pays for the crime. The innocent die and the innocent grieve. Justice is a ripple effect‚ forever taking its toll‚ and it is not always in positive way. In the old days‚ justice was righting a wrong‚ achieved usually through a

During the seventeenth century in England‚ outside temperatures reached so low during the winter that it is actually considered to be a “mini ice age” by scientists today. During this time‚ people were still somewhat fatalistic and believed that cold was an act of god‚ and that people should just leave it alone.
