Emily Webb George Gibbs
1,794 wordsAccording to Hall the experience of time "varies in detail from class to class, by occupation, and sex and age within our own culture." (Hall, 1984: 133) Thus its perception is highly subjective. While some people may experience time as running very fast at the same time others can feel it drag. Time escapes definitions though the passage of time can be felt in human personal experience and observed in the environment. Strange as it as, people are aware of time at the same time not being able to...

Existence Of God Concept Of God
1,619 wordsThe cosmological argument was first introduced by Aristotle and later refined in western Europe by the celebrated Christian theologian, Thomas Aquinas (d. 1274 CE).

Real Numbers Starting Point
1,939 wordster> Sam Vaknin's Psychology, Philosophy, Economics and Foreign Affairs Web Sites Finiteness has to do with the existence of boundaries. Intuitively, we feel that where there is a separation, a border, a threshold there is bound to be at least one thing finite out of a minimum of two. This, of course, is not true. Two infinite things can share a boundary. Infinity does not imply symmetry, let alone isotropy. An entity can be infinite to its left and bounded on its...

Material Substance God Created
1,635 wordster> Sam Vaknin's Psychology, Philosophy, Economics and Foreign Affairs Web Sites Occasionalism is a variation upon Cartesian metaphysics. The latter is the most notorious case of dualism (mind and body, for instance). The mind is a mental substance. The body a material substance.

Universe Is Infinite Infinite Number Of Worlds Happening

I am assuming that Albert Einstein is a somewhat familiar name for you. You may even know of some or all of his theories. Such as those on relativity and the possibility that the universe is infinite. The latter is the theory I am extending. What I have ...

Of the many mathematicians involved in the discovery of calculus, Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibniz and Sir Isaac Newton were the most important. Together, they established the basic principles of calculus, and, with the help of other mathematicians, it was refined using the concept of the li...

All that there is in the universe consists of monads, which there are an infinite number of them. A monad is a simple, indivisible substance.

2,376 wordsChaos Theory and Fractal Phenomena Chaos theory is the qualitative study of unstable aperiodic behavior in deterministic nonlinear systems. To understand the definition of chaos can be understood if broken down: A dynamical system may be defined to be a simplified model of the time-varying behavior of an actual system and an aperiodic behavior is the behavior that occurs when no variable describing the state of the system undergoes a regular repetition of values. An aperiodic behavior will never...
