High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Day-Age creationism, a type of Old Earth creationism, is an interpretation of the creation accounts found in Genesis. It holds that the six days referred to in the Genesis account of creation are not ordinary 24-hour days, but rather are much longer periods (of thousands or millions of years). The Genesis account is then interpreted as an account of the process of cosmic evolution, providing a broad base on which any number of theories and interpretations are built. Proponents of the Day-Age Theory can be found among both theistic evolutionists (who accept the scientific consensus on evolution) and progressive creationists (who reject it). The theories are said to be built on the understanding...

There are two types of armed religious warfare in Islam, namely the defensive jihad and the offensive jihad. This article discusses defensive jihad as a concept in Islamic law. Islamic tradition holds that when Muslims are attacked, then it becomes obligatory for all Muslims of that land to defend against the attack; to participate in jihad but if the conditions of "Offensive Jihad" are fulfilled. Muslims consider armed struggle against foreign occupation to be worthy of defensive jihad. Indeed, the Qur'an requires military defense of the besieged Islamic community Данное издание не является оригинальным. Книга печатается по технологии принт-он-деманд после...

Peace has been a major factor of economical, political, emotional and social development, but when communal identities, particularly religious identities, are key causal factors in violent conflicts in an underdeveloped, illiterate and poor Nigerian community, there is need for each faith tradition to stop the unnecessary violence, and not to allow religion to be the root of it. This book explores how to empower pastors to live in peace with others and proposes nine heathy practices and a year-long curriculum outline for in-depth understanding and assimilation of peace education designed for children in Sunday school, youth in Bible study, and adults in women's/men's fellowship groups.

A deity is a postulated preternatural or supernatural immortal being, who may be thought of as holy, divine, or sacred, held in high regard, and respected by believers. Deities are depicted in a variety of forms, but are frequently expressed as having human or animal form. Some faiths and traditions consider it blasphemous to imagine or depict the deity as having any concrete form. They are usually immortal, and are commonly assumed to have personalities and to possess consciousness, intellects, desires, and emotions similar to those of humans. Such natural phenomena as lightning, floods, storms, other acts of God, and miracles are attributed to them, and they may be thought to be the authorities or controllers of various aspects of...

In religion, folklore, and mythology a demon is a supernatural being that is generally described as a malevolent spirit. In Christian terms demons are generally understood as fallen angels, formerly of God. A demon is frequently depicted as a force that may be conjured and insecurely controlled. The good demon in recent use is largely a literary device (e.g., Maxwell s demon), though references to good demons can be found in Hesiod and Shakespeare. In common language, to demonize a person means to characterize or portray them as evil, or as a source of evil. The mythical Sweeney Todd was accorded the title Demon Barber of Fleet Street in a 1936 film. The 19th-century Australian cricketer Fred Spofforth was nicknamed the Demon (Bowler) ,...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Demonization is the reinterpretation of polytheistic deities as evil, lying demons by other religions, generally monotheistic and henotheistic ones. The term has since been expanded to refer to any characterization of individuals, groups, or political bodies as evil. Analogs to demonization exist outside monotheistic religions, as well. Polytheism easily accepts foreign gods in general, and in times of conflict, a foreign nation's gods would sometimes be portrayed as evil. Demonization is sometimes used against what are arguably political opponents rather than religious ones. The Knights Templar were destroyed by accusations that they worshipped Baphomet from King Philip the Fair. Baphomet,...

Denominationalism is the division of one religion into separate groups, sects, schools of thought or denominations. Denominationalism as an ideology which views some or all Christian groups as being, in some sense, versions of the same thing regardless of their distinguishing labels, is not accepted by all Christian churches. The Catholic and Orthodox Churches do not use this term as its implication of interchangeability does not agree with their theological teachings. Denominatinalism is a largely Protestant concept among Christians. Данное издание не является оригинальным. Книга печатается по технологии принт-он-деманд после получения заказа.

Deontological ethics or deontology is an approach to ethics that determines goodness or rightness from examining acts, rather than the consequences of the act as in consequentialism, or the intentions of the person doing the act as in virtue ethics. Deontologists look at rules and duties. For example, the act may be considered the right thing to do even if it produces a bad consequence, if it follows the rule that “one should do unto others as they would have done unto them”, and even if the person who does the act lacks virtue and had a bad intention in doing the act. We have a duty to act in a way that does those things that are inherently good as acts ("truth-telling" for example), or follow an objectively obligatory rule (as in...

Heute wird der Glaubensartikel vom Descensus ad inferos - Jesu Hinabsteigen in die Unterwelt - in Dogmatikhandbuchern nur kurz erwahnt oder fast ganz ubergangen. Im modernen Glaubensbewusstsein scheint er fremd und mythologisch zu sein. Sein liturgischer Ort, der Karsamstag, wird kaum beachtet. Doch einer der bedeutendsten Denker des 20. Jahrhunderts macht den Descensus ad inferos zur Mitte seiner Theologie: Hans Urs von Balthasar. Der Autor Andri Tuor nahert sich systematisch an die Karsamstagstheologie von Hans Urs von Balthasar. Nach einer biographischen Hinfuhrung untersucht und verortet er den Sinn des Descensus Christi ad inferos in Liturgie, Bekenntnis und Lehre und skizziert und wurdigt kritisch Balthasars singularen Ansatz als...

Das Ziel dieser Arbeit ist, die derzeit noch bestehenden Probleme im okumenischen Dialog exemplarisch am Lutherisch/ Romisch-Katholischen Dialog auf Weltebene darzustellen, ihr geschichtliches Werden aufzuzeigen, aber auch Perspektiven und Visionen miteinfliessen zu lassen. Anhand der Konsenstexte und ihrer Rezeption von beiden Seiten werden die bisher erreichte Annaherung, sowie die offenen Fragen erarbeitet. Gerade aufgrund meiner Uberzeugung, dass es nicht mehr primar die Theologie ist, die Lutheraner und Katholiken trennt, habe ich die Hoffnung, dass es zu einer wirklichen Annaherung kommen kann. Wie diese zu gestalten sein wird, das ist offen. Gefordert ist in unserer Zeit ein vorbehaltloses Aufeinander-Zugehen im Bewusstsein der...

Persische Einflusse auf Taufergruppen reichen bis in deren Grundungszeiten zuruck, verkoppelt mit pythagoreischen, stoischen und babylonischen Einflussen. Diese werden uber das babylonische, persische und agyptische Diasporajudentum rezipiert. In den Frauengestalten des Sethianismus sind phonizische Fruchtbarkeitsgottinnen und agyptische Himmelsgottinnen wie Maat, Nut und Isis, vermittelt uber die judisch-weisheitliche Sophia, erkennbar. - Die Vorsokratiker und Platons Akademie haben viel fruher bereits zervanistische...
