Metaphysical theology is the study of God. God as the object of metaphysical study has a specificity compared to the other two objects of metaphysics. If the outward manifestation of the universe and the soul can be perceived by the senses, then the same is not true for the reality of divinity. God is something that cannot be grasped by the senses. Metaphysics that studies about God is called the philosophy of divinity (naturalist theology). If the philosophy of divinity makes God the final point or conclusion of the entire study, then revelation theology views God as the starting point for its discussion. The philosophy of divinity deals with proving the truth of the existence of God based on human reasoning. Divinity philosophy (naturalist theology) does not question the existence of God, the discipline only wants to underline that if there is no uncaused first cause, the relative-contingent position of objects cannot be understood by reason. From the above, there are several kinds of philosophical evidence that try to open the way to God; namely the proof of ontology, cosmology, teleology, morals, and this is at the same time an advantage of the philosophical approach compared to the approach of religion and other sciences. Science is limited to making descriptions based on empirical experience while religion departs from belief in one doctrine.

Modelling epilepsy in the mouse: challenges and solutions

ABSTRACT In most mouse models of disease, the outward manifestation of a disorder can be measured easily, can be assessed with a trivial test such as hind limb clasping, or can even be observed simply by comparing the gross morphological characteristics of mutant and wild-type littermates. But what if we are trying to model a disorder with a phenotype that appears only sporadically and briefly, like epileptic seizures? The purpose of this Review is to highlight the challenges of modelling epilepsy, in which the most obvious manifestation of the disorder, seizures, occurs only intermittently, possibly very rarely and often at times when the mice are not under direct observation. Over time, researchers have developed a number of ways in which to overcome these challenges, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. In this Review, we describe the genetics of epilepsy and the ways in which genetically altered mouse models have been used. We also discuss the use of induced models in which seizures are brought about by artificial stimulation to the brain of wild-type animals, and conclude with the ways these different approaches could be used to develop a wider range of anti-seizure medications that could benefit larger patient populations.

Reformulating Special Relativity on a Two-World Background

A new spacetime is isolated and added to the existing spacetime, yielding a pair of co-existing spacetimes, which are four-dimensional inversions of each other. The separation of the spacetimes by the special-relativistic event horizon, compels an interpretation of a pair of symmetrical worlds (or universes) in nature. Furthermore, a two-dimensional intrinsic spacetime that underlies the four-dimensional spacetime in each universe is introduced. The four-dimensional spacetime is the outward manifestation of the two-dimensional intrinsic spacetime, just as the special theory of relativity (SR) on flat four-dimensional spacetime is the outward manifestation of the intrinsic special theory of relativity (∅SR) on flat two-dimensional intrinsic spacetime in each universe. A new set of spacetime/intrinsic spacetime diagrams in the two-world picture is developed, from which intrinsic Lorentz transformation in ∅SR and Lorentz transformation in SR are derived and intrinsic Lorentz invariance and Lorentz invariance are validated in each universe. The SR remains unchanged, but the exposition of its two-world background, the isolated parallel new theory ∅SR and other isolated new features in this article, allow a broader view of SR. This article includes a new addition to the conceptions of many worlds (or universes) in physics and it is effectively a review (in the two-world picture) of the existing geometrical representations of the Lorentz transformation (in a one-world picture).

Addressing the Relationship Between Emotion Management and Social Capital: An Analysis of Federal Employees

Emotion management describes the ability of an employee to regulate the outward manifestation of emotions during personal interactions. Prior studies examining emotions in organizations have often emphasized the production of emotional labor during service delivery transactions with clients. Such a focus has overlooked the emotion management that takes place between employees. Using ordinary least- squares (OLS) regression, this study analyzes the 2016 Merit Principles Survey of federal employees to examine the relationship between emotion management and the development of social capital. Findings from the study show a positive relationship between emotion management and social capital. These findings provide evidence that employees capable of properly regulating their emotional states during interactions with their colleagues perceive themselves as having more social capital. The findings, however, also indicate that the positive relationship between emotion management and social capital does not hold for employees of color to the same extent that it does for white employees. This could mean that emotion management by employees of color is less likely to lead to increases in social capital as it is for their white counterparts. These findings have important implications for our understanding of emotion management and its impact on how employees navigate their organizations.

Toward the Perception of Subjective Expression

The idea of artistic expression as an outward manifestation of the self arose in literature and philosophy at least two generations before it came to be applied to music. Lyric poetry in particular provided a conceptual model for perceiving art as a form of autobiography; Goethe and Wordsworth encouraged such a reading of their works. In the meantime, philosophers were questioning the very nature of the self, and particularly the unconscious, which is to say, the primordial self. They began to recognize that while the unconscious might defy observation, its products could provide indirect evidence of its workings, and they regarded artworks as a synthesis of conscious and unconscious thought and as such capable of offering at least an occluded window onto the nature of the true inner self.

New orientation of study on economic psychology and behaviour

Economic psychology refers to the impact of psychological factors on economic changes, and its outward manifestation is economic behaviour. Psychology, as a science studying human psychology and behaviour, has no reason to ignore the study of economic activities. This study summarizes the latest research results and conclusions of economic psychology from three aspects of behaviour level, body signal and other people’s movement or displacement. In addition, it expounds the reflection of economic psychology, the reflection of rational human hypothesis of traditional economics and the prospect of future research. From the perspective of economic psychology, it is of great significance to analyse the psychological motivation behind the conflicts and interests in the study of economic psychology and behaviour so as to construct the harmonious behaviour relationship of “psychological contract” on the basis of the rational mechanism of interest distribution.

Public Urban Happiness, that is the making of our own world

For centuries the urban environment has been painted, designed, shaped and built in order to answer to specific needs and desires. Visions and drawings of ideal and perfect places still today behave as appealing images, offered to the public domain. During the last century, well-known icons, made of visionary and seducing scenarios, designed by avan-garde architects, acted as a vehicle able to symbolize the pursuit of public happiness: working on an urban imaginary, as a body of knowledge, efforts of architects and town planners were oriented to create a new world, based on ideals of progress and prosperity, with streets, squares, architectural complexes and housing estates for our everyday lives, for a wide satisfaction and consumption of urban users. Far from utopias, the real world hasn’t developed the ability to grant all wishes, often revealing itself as unable to find a way to connect innermost emotions of collective expectations to the outward manifestation in the urban realm. Even in their imperfections, cities expanded beyond what anyone could have imagined, sprawling along territories, scattering over the known borders.

The effect of Kushamoola in the management of Rakthapradara - A Clinical Study

The word Artava denotes two meanings one of them is Antah Pushpa and another one is Bahir Pushpa. Both Antah and Bahir Pushpa are interrelated. Bahir Pushpa is outward manifestation of appropriate work of Antah Pushpa which is necessary for conception. Here, the present study deal with Bahir Pushpa that is menstrual blood. As heavy menstrual bleeding (Raktapradara) is a debilitating disorder, the woman requires rapid, safe and effective treatment. Ayurvedic texts have described a variety of treatment options in the management of “Rakta Pradara”. Due to alteration of food habits and changing life styles complaint of the excessive and irregular uterine bleeding is increasing day by day. Excessive bleeding is the most common cause of anemia and dysmenorrhoea. High rate of complication of hysterectomy as well as it is not suitable for younger patients and who wish to conceive further. Due to limitation of medical therapy as well surgical therapy of modern science, it becomes the necessity of the time to find out harmless therapy to manage the condition.These are the factors why the topic is being selected for the present study.

Ritmos alterados. Fachadas urbanas en el Milán de la postguerra

<p>Urban façades are the outward manifestation of the character of a city, and are composed of elements that respond to rhythmic sequences in consonance with the internal order of the rooms behind them. In post-war Milan, façades were used as a field of experimentation by a group of architects, some of whom were also artists and designers, who saw themselves and can be seen as ambassadors for the future modernity of a city devastated by war. This article explains how the urban façades of Milan, based as they were on the themes drawn from the Italian compositional tradition, offer a wide variety of elements, figures and rhythms, altering and transgressing the compositional canons through the use of mechanisms that in some cases are closer to painting or sculpture than to architecture.</p>

Kierkegaard in the Garden: The Interiority of God's Wonder and Praise

Is there an interior aesthetic? Can each and every human being turn inward and behold a beauty and nobility that leads them to the face of God? Or are aesthetics a purely outward manifestation of the beauty and order that points to the ultimate Creator? In this essay, I plan to expound on how God in all His grace and love might have made himself known in His essence to the whole of humanity in the most intimate way not simply by the more objective, sterile mode of reason, but by the subjective passionate mode of beauty. First, I will look at Genesis 1:10 in the Greek of the Septuagint, “καὶ εἶδεν ὁ Θεός, ὅτι καλόν” as a manner of demonstrating that God marveled at Creation, before he created the first human being. He took the time to perceive its beauty and nobility. Through this I plan to look at the relationship between wonder and beauty and how the interplay of those two yields truth. When God saw that His Creation was good was that an interior aesthetic of His own or a mediation of Himself? To sort this out, I plan to look at Soren Kierkegaard in his Concluding Unscientific Postscript to show that interiority and the subjective do possess and partake in the kind of possession that allows one not only to see God or His attributes, but enables one to abide in Him through the Spirit.
