Unicorns also have the same two forms as the horse and the number four. When the word "unicorn" is mentioned, no doubt the image of a single horned horse comes to mind. This confirms that the unicorn has an archetypical form. A form within the mind and imagination that can consistently exist within the minds of people. To argue that a unicorn does not exist would be to disprove the very definition. While it is true that there is currently not a living form of unicorn, the fact that the image can be conjured means that it must exist. Should an image be non-configurable, then one could argue that the unicorn does not exist in any form. The second from that the unicorn takes, and the one that most people image is that from art. The creative manifestation of the archetypical form projected into a physical form. While the physical form may not breath, eat or move it is still existing just as the very computer that I am typing this paper on exists regardless of being alive. Secondly, the unicorn is not in violation of any universal rules. In both archetypical and physical from the creature would seem to have the same capabilities of the horse only with a horn atop its head. While some would argue that the unicorn does violate certain universal rules in that unicorns are said to be magical, this is not the case. There are legends formed about unicorns. These legends lend to the archetypical and physical definitions and once again are consistent with the actual form. There is no inconsistency. An inconsistency would be for example, if the unicorn's archetypical form was the traditional image, but the physical form looked like an umbrella. The final object, the square circle, does not nor cannot exist. There is absolutely no form that the square...
When attempting to visualize, it is easy to visualize a circle within a square or vise-verse, but not a square circle. Therefor, this object does not even exist within the archetypical form. The second part of the definition once again fails. Under the universal rules of geometry, a circle is a shape with no edges and no end. It simply continually goes around. A square on the other hand has four rigid sides all the same length and four points. These definitions contradict one another, therefor the square circle cannot exist because it contradicts universal the universal rules of geometry. Finally, because the square circle contradicts those universal rules, it also is in violation of universal truths. It cannot be refuted that a circle has no points and goes on continually. It is a universal truth. The combining of the square and the circle into one shape violates that truth.
In most religious texts, "God is omnipotent (all-powerful), omniscient (all-knowing), and all-good (righteous, loving, benevolent)" (Wolf 2011). According to this view, apart from being the source of all that is good, God has the ability to know and do everything -- including stamping out all evil. However, there still exists so much suffering and evil in the world. Calamities of every nature do occur occasionally leading to death, displacement
Rules of Debit and Credit Financial transactions under double entry system have double effect because they involve at least two accounts. One is credited and the other is debited. The debiting and crediting has to be done on basis of laid down rules. Accounts are often classified in terms of assets, liabilities, income, and expenses (Larson & Jensen, 2005). Expenses are further classified thus: capital expenses and revenue expenses. Assets are classified
6 Is there any comfort in these? None. There is no comfort in believing that one's existence -- joys and sufferings included -- is meaningless. If it were so, then there's no point in doing good rather than evil. If there is no immortality with God, then there is no Judgment and Hitler won't be any less of a saint than Mother Theresa. In a world without God, morality loses
Through Tan's stunning use of character, however, readers are left to question Waverly's metaphor and her conclusion that her mother is her opposition. One reason for this is Waverly's mother's stunning wisdom. Although she speaks in Asian-flavored broken English, Waverly states that her "mother imparted her daily truths so she could help my older brothers and me rise above our circumstances" (Tan 1). Furthermore, it is clear that Waverly's mother's
Rules to Live by -- a Biostatement Yes, the human race is quite "species-centric," and we are already paying for it. Our planet has changed greatly over the billions of years it has existed, but it has changed far more rapidly since humans entered the picture, and it has changed even more rapidly since humans have developed increasing technology. We are an advanced race, but we are advancing at the expense
There is in this premise an implied idea that God's goodness and perfection constitute an obligation that he create and maintain a good and perfect world, or, to quote Mackie, that "good is opposed to evil in such a way that a good thing always eliminates evil as far as it can." Mackie refers to this implied argument as a "quasi-logical rule." The truth of this assumption, however, is not self-evident. The
