  • A Contextual Examination of Three Historical Stages of Atheism and the Legality of an American Freedom from Religion
    ABSTRACT Rejecting the Definitive: A Contextual Examination of Three Historical Stages of Atheism and the Legality of an American Freedom from Religion Ethan Gjerset Quillen, B.A., M.A., M.A. Mentor: T. Michael Parrish, Ph.D. The trouble with “definitions” is they leave no room for evolution. When a word is concretely defined, it is done so in a particular time and place. Contextual interpretations permit a better understanding of certain heavy words; Atheism as a prime example. In the post-modern world Atheism has become more accepted and popular, especially as a reaction to global terrorism. However, the current definition of Atheism is terribly inaccurate. It cannot be stated properly that pagan Atheism is the same as New Atheism. By interpreting the Atheisms from four stages in the term‟s history a clearer picture of its meaning will come out, hopefully alleviating the stereotypical biases weighed upon it. In the interpretation of the Atheisms from Pagan Antiquity, the Enlightenment, the New Atheist Movement, and the American Judicial and Civil Religious system, a defense of the theory of elastic contextual interpretations, rather than concrete definitions, shall be made. Rejecting the Definitive: A Contextual Examination of Three Historical Stages of Atheism and the Legality of an American Freedom from Religion by Ethan Gjerset Quillen, B.A., M.A. A Thesis Approved by the J.M. Dawson Institute of Church-State Studies ___________________________________ Robyn L.

  • King of the Paranormal
    King of the Paranormal CNN's Larry King Live has a long history of outrageous promotion of UFOs, psychics, and spiritualists. CHRIS MOONEY roadcast on CNN, the July 1, 2003, installment of Larry King Live was a sight to behold. The program, Bin Kings words, explored "the incredible events of fifty-six years ago at Roswell, New Mexico." What most likely crashed at Roswell in 1947 was a government spy bal- loon, but the panel of guests assembled on King's show pre- ferred a more sensational version of events. Jesse Marcel, Jr., son of a Roswell intelligence officer, claimed that just after the crash, his father showed him bits of debris that "came from another civilization" (Marcel 2003). Glenn Dennis, who worked at a Roswell funeral home at the time, said a military officer called him to ask about the availability of small caskets (i.e., for dead aliens). Later Dennis, obviously SKEPTICAL INQUIRER November/December 2003 a UFO enthusiast, abruptly observed that the pyramids in Roswell crash site.

  • Alien Civilizations
    ALIEN CIVILIZATIONS What is Panspermia? Panspermia, pan meaning ‘all’, and sperma, meaning ‘seed’ is the theory that life is present throughout the Universe, distributed by meteoroids, planetoids, asteroids, comets, and also by spacecraft, particularly in the form of microbes. The Panspermia theory proposes that the microbes (microscopic life forms) that can endure the effects of space, like for instance, extremophiles (microbes that can withstand extreme temperatures), get trapped in debris that is expelled into space after collisions between planetoids and small Solar System bodies that shelter life. Some of the organisms may be scattered dormant for some amount of time before randomly colliding with other planets or intermingling with planetary disks. If met with the ideal conditions on a new planet's surface, the organisms become active and the process of evolution begins. Panspermia is not meant to address how life began, just the method that may cause its distribution in the Universe. How civilizations are categorised based on their energy use (Type 1, 2 and 3) The Kardashev scale is used for measuring a civilization's level of technological advancement, based upon the total amount of energy a civilization utilizes. The scale is categorised into three types called Type 1, 2, and 3. A Type 1 civilization utilises every available resource existing on its home planet, Type 2 derives all the energy of its star, and Type 3 harnesses it from huge swathes of its galaxy. The scale is hypothetical, but it appropriately puts energy consumption in a cosmic perspective. It was first postulated in 1964 by the Soviet astronomer Nikolai Kardashev (Kardashyov).
