The Ozone A Hole In Theory

The protective ozone layer around our world
undergoes much thought and debate. The "Hole",
however, only exists in the minds of
environmental, self-serving scientists and
politicians. It interests many to find all the
faults in the publics consensus of the "ozone
depletion. " Most scientists do not believe in
this "depletion", they think it is a natural
phenomenon. Ozone gasses come into view as
consideration over what gasses are actually
accused for this awful crime of destroying the
ozone. But...

information is gathered solely from
experimentation, but people are slow to realize
that experimentation is only one way, among a
variety of ways, in which scientists gather
information. In their pursuit of new scientific
knowledge, scientists may conduct surveys, or
build on pre-existing informati...

science fiction. As for me, not so long ago Ive
read a book (science fiction), which described the
lives of people in future, somewhere in 2240. This
book described a human race as a race in which
children are modified before their birth according
to the tastes of their parents. Author pointed
that such modification was not always good for a
child. As for me, it was rather creepy to read.

Psychology of Religion The relationship between
religion and science is a problem significant for
a psychology based on the notion that individuals
construct their own worlds. The issue is equally
pertinent to any of the constructivist
perspectives but is most clearly seen in one
particular psychology, personal construct
psychology. In this last perspective, we see the
clearest example of the apparent tension that
arises between that psychology's model of the
person as "scientist" on the one han...

Christian Science Holy Spirit

Of all the biblically based cults in America,
Christian Science is one of the most interesting.
Not only does it deny the essential doctrines of
Christianity, but it has also completely
reinterpreted the Bible. It redefines the Bible s
culture and terminology, and rips thousands of
scriptures out of their historical and Biblical
context. Christian Science is a non-Christian
mixture of metaphysical and philosophical
thoughts. Christian Science is so foreign to the
Bible, that if did not use words...

The issue of Cloning Cloning The issue of cloning
has always been around in our everyday lives.
Cloning was common in movies such a as Jurassic
Park and The Lost World, where cloning seemed to
be an idea of fantasy and not reality. The idea
that scientist could just take a little DNA from a
dead mosquito and turn it into something that
could tower over a skyscraper was very intriguing

movies such as Alien Resurrection, in which
