Divine Openness for Physical Relationship

The success of the atheistic hiddenness argument depends on the “consciousness constraint” it imposes on the divine-human loving relationship: namely, that this relationship requires human conscious awareness of being in the relationship with God. I challenge the truth of this proposition by introducing the concept of a physical relationship with God that is not subject to this constraint. I argue, first, that a physical relationship with God is metaphysically possible; second, that its plausibility is supported by natural theology; and third, that a perfectly loving God would prefer physical relationships with human beings over consciousness-constrained relationships, because a perfectly loving God would prefer to preserve the integrity of human freedom of participation and allow inclusion of all people regardless of their natural cognitive capabilities. I also offer an interpretation of apparent divine hiddenness in the light of the idea of God’s openness for physical relationships.

DIVINE HIDDENNESS AND HUMAN CONSCIOUSNESS

The paper offers a new strategy for refuting the atheistic hiddenness argument. For that, the argument is modified on the account of the actual epistemic situation in our world. As a result, the success of the modified argument hinges on the truth of the supposition that divine-human loving relationship depends on whether the human had a convincing religious experience of the divine presence and whether the human possesses the capability to recognize this experience as their participation in the relationship with God. This supposition, however, is shown to be unfounded. Moreover, this supposition entails that many people who lack the necessary cognitive abilities to be conscious of their relationship with God are thus unfit for this relationship, which disagrees with the idea of all-encompassing divine love. A successful rebuttal of this supposition results in a refutation of the hiddenness argument.

Fritz Tillmann, Discipleship and the Renewal of Moral Theology

The notion of discipleship has come to be considered an essential foundation and perspective in modern Catholic moral theology. Fritz Tillmann’s manual Die Idee der Nachfolge Christi was a landmark work in the early 20th century whose popularity led to a wide diffusion of the biblical concept of discipleship in Catholic moral theology. However, little mention is made of Tillmann in current academic writing. The article aims to explore the thought of Tillmann by outlining his understanding of Christian moral discipleship in conjunction with examples of key authors who influenced Tillmann, such as Hirscher and Linsenmann of the Tübingen School, as well as Neo-Scholastic authors who severely criticized his approach. The article concludes with a reflection on the current implications of discipleship in moral theology, calling for a greater recognition of the need for a transformative, loving relationship with Christ to fuel the desire to choose the good.

SPIRIT POSSESSION IN EVANGELISM

Spirit possession is associated with good and bad Spirits. The good spirits comes in loving relationship while the bad is to be cast out. There has been confusion concerning the manner of casting out or healing in the churches. Those who practice it, want to link their practices to the ministry of Jesus. There are frequent testimonies to divine healing at evangelism campaigns, however, there are small number of definite miracles of healing compared to the great numbers who were prayed for. The healing may be termed ‘miraculous’ in the sense of being a wonderful sign of God’s activity. The findings from the research, was that the healing was real. Some miracles were instantaneous, others take some time to manifest. The miracles lead to conversion of the individual. The method adopted in the research is critical analysis and socio-religious.

A few notes on the book “Call me by your name” by André Aciman

In the article we deal with the interpretation and analysis of selected topics and motives in the narrative of André Aciman’s publication Call me by your name. After a summary of the story, we take a closer look at the genesis of the two men’s relationships in the context of their Jewish faith. We also depict the transformation of their animal sexual relationship into a loving relationship associated with psychic harmony. The final passage of the article is devoted to the conclusion of the book, in which the message of the publication is anchored, which to a certain extent goes beyond the inclusion of Aciman’s work primarily in LGBT young adult literature.

O Poder Transformador dos Encontros: Uma Análise da Animação Destino

This text arose from the following questions: what are the precipitations resulting from a real encounter? Is it possible to truly relate to another person and remain the same? What does it take, according to Rogers, to be whole in a loving relationship? We aim to analyze the way in which the person changes when choosing someone as a partner. Therefore, the method was based on theoretical research with a focus on Carl Rogers for the humanistic conceptual study and on film analysis in order to carry out a psychological reading about the animation Destino by Salvador Dalí and Walter Disney. From the above, we dismantle the notion that the love relationship is an immutable destiny, by realizing, through the humanistic approach, that the love relationship not only involves the awareness of being a person, but mainly, the true openness to the experience of being with someone else, in an I-You relationship of authenticity and empathy. In this way, the Meetings allow the construction of their own destiny that is revealed as something flexible and changeable. Palavras-chave : Love; Carl Rogers; Humanism; Interpersonalrelations.

The recklessness, boldness and intimacy that exist in the poems of these two have given a special depth to their verses that give the reader a feeling of tenderness and the peak of servitude, while the loving relationship of God has been the highest type of relationship.

Use of applications for leaching Learning Chemistry

Technology and education have always had a loving relationship, especially in the classroom. For Education in Chemistry, smartphones and their Apps can provide experiences that were previously restricted to a laboratory experiment. The purpose of this study was to investigate through an evaluation the use of the Periodic Table Quiz applications and the Educalabs Periodic Table in the classroom, how these technologies can be integrated into teaching and what are their effects on student learning. It was held at the Municipal School of Primary Education II Roberto Antunes de Freitas in the city of Quiterianópolis-CE, in 02 classes of the 9th grade, comprising 32 students, with a methodology based on a descriptive study, empirical basis and qualitative nature. The results showed the contribution and potential that the applications offer in the learning of chemical concepts. After using these, it can be noticed that there were more correct answers in 08 of the 10 questions proposed, and 100% of the students stated that their interest in the subject increased, so they could verify the validity of exploring chemistry contents through these applications since they offer more interactive content that engages the student's genuine interest in participating in the process.

PPI inflation rate from 1% to 6% – Mathematical Reasoning of Economic Intervening Principle Based on Yin Yang Wu Xing Theory in Traditional Chinese Economics (II)

PPI (Producer Price Index) is useful in understanding industry economic disease. By using mathematical reasoning based on Yin Yang Wu Xing Theory in Traditional Chinese Economics (TCE) or Traditional Chinese Science (TCS), this paper demonstrates that for the PPI inflation rate of industry economic society, the normal range of theory is nearly to . The first or second transfer law of economic diseases changes according to the different PPI inflation rate whether in the normal range or not. The treatment principle:“Don’t have economic disease cure cure non-ill” () is abiding by the first or second transfer law of economic diseases. Assume that the range of PPI inflation rate is divided into four parts from small to large. Both second and third are for a healthy economy. Our works are the prevention or treatment for a more serious relation economic disease which comes from the first transfer law. And both first and fourth are for an unhealthy economy. Our works are the prevention or treatment for a more serious relation economic disease which comes from the second transfer law. Economic disease treatment should protect and maintain the balance of two incompatibility relations: the loving relationship and the killing relationship.
