Would you gladly sell your Freedom for Security as those who back the TSA are doing?

29 FEB
2012

Author: The Oracle

Question by James E Lewis AKA choteau: Would you gladly sell your Freedom for Security as those who back the TSA are doing?
Amendment IV to the U S Constitution (Also known as part of the “Bill of Rights”)

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

Best answer:

Answer by chmacqueen
Maybe you should start reading from the top of the Constitution next time.

“We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish
Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the
general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity,”

Now this is what the entire constitution is written to protect. To promote the general welfare and secure liberty to ourselves and our posterity (means future generations). This means security and freedom both come hand in hand and both are a double edged sword sometimes giving and sometimes taking for the general welfare and future generations. So for us to be truely free we also must be secure from those who wish to destroy everything we stand for. We have a duty to sacrifice a bit of personal freedoms for the general welfare of all which grants freedom to all and not just a handful.

When you wash your hands, do the chemicals in the soap absorb through into your bloodstream?

29 FEB
2012

Author: The Oracle

Question by Chaucer: When you wash your hands, do the chemicals in the soap absorb through into your bloodstream?
Could chemical absorbtion of anti-bacterial soaps through hand washing manifest as detrimental health problems in people? Do the chemicals bioaccumulate into fat tissue and organs, or do they quickly get expunged out of the body in urine?

And what about regular soap? Should I be afraid of washing my hands too often? I get scared that if I wash my hands more than three or four times a day, I could damage my organs from the chemical contaminants.

Q&A: What do you think is the function or purpose of the two laws that Paul perceived in Romans 7?

29 FEB
2012

Author: The Oracle

Question by Jason: What do you think is the function or purpose of the two laws that Paul perceived in Romans 7?
14 We know that the law is spiritual; but I am unspiritual, sold as a slave to sin. 15 I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do. 16 And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good. 17 As it is, it is no longer I myself who do it, but it is sin living in me. 18 I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my sinful nature.[c] For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. 19 For what I do is not the good I want to do; no, the evil I do not want to do—this I keep on doing. 20 Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it.

21 So I find this law at work: When I want to do good, evil is right there with me. 22 For in my inner being I delight in God’s law; 23 but I see another law at work in the members of my body, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work within my members. 24 What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death? 25 Thanks be to God—through Jesus Christ our Lord!

So then, I myself in my mind am a slave to God’s law, but in the sinful nature a slave to the law of sin.

Best answer:

Answer by Chris
The saved believer in Jesus has two natures. The old nature of the sinful flesh, and the new nature born again of the Holy Spirit, the inner man.

The saved believer in Jesus decides throughout each day whether to walk in the flesh, or in the Holy Spirit. The obvious right choice is to walk in the Spirit, by His power not yielding to the lusts of the flesh.

The Spirituality of Judaism

29 FEB
2012

Author: The Oracle

The Spirituality of Judaism

David Hartman’s book, A Living Covenant centers on two important topics on the subject of Jewish spirituality. The first deals with the allegation that traditional Judaism excessively concerns itself with matters of “law” to the extent that a mechanical approach, in matters of faith and relating to God, is realized. This arguably degenerates into “legalism.” The second topic relates to how mankind approaches God within and without the scope of Jewish particularity. Both of these topics are inter-related to each other. Regarding how mankind approaches the subject of “knowing God,” Hartman contends that two ways are possible. The first revolves around the covenantal revelation established at Sinai, which is particular to the people of Israel and is highlighted through the ongoing experiences and history of Jews. In this arena, God is approached and known as the God of the covenant.

The second scenario is more universalistic in nature and deals with God as the Creator of the heavens and the earth.

All of mankind is privy to this fact, and Hartman argues this must lead Judaism to conclude that the authenticity of the covenantal experience at Sinai does not necessarily imply Jewish exclusivist claims regarding non- covenantal forms of faith. The Jewish individual, according to Hartman maintains both methods as mechanisms for “knowing” God. The covenantal paradigm, however, entails more specific approaches and paths one must follow. The principle method is through the world of Halakha and ones approach to Halakha ultimately dictates how one perceives God’s relation to man and how in turn man can relate to the Divine. In the world of Jewish law, many Sages perceived the revelatory experience at Sinai, with all of its majesty and supernatural imagery, as a definitive moment in the history of Israel.

But many perceived it as but one moment that did not signify the highest culmination of Israel’s faith development.

In this type of worldview, the primacy of later rabbinic exegesis, the ongoing innovation of the rabbinic system, and a sense of man’s inherent ability to join with God as partner in creation are of key importance. The Toraitic and prophetic traditions, which often maintain a dependence on the miraculous, are revered but seen as only part of the ongoing development of the people of Israel. Israel’s strength is seen in its ability to go beyond the “unfulfilled” predictions of the prophets dealing with Israel’s physical and spiritual restoration. A tremendous amount of “faith” is invested in the ability of future generations to formulate responses to their own circumstances. For example, Rabbinic thought during the Mishnaic period explicitly rejected the notion of charismatic authority intervening in matters of halakhah. Nevertheless, this type of authority did exist in Judaism and was understood in the following manner: God’s will, could be expressed in the word of a holy person or a prophet.

Holiness or prophecy in turn, could be validated by supernatural attestation. Rabbinic thought, however, limited its realm of influence. Such a view, arguably described as rationalistic, tremendously affects how a person perceives God. As a champion of this model, Hartman points to Maimonides, the great halakhist and philosopher of the Middles Ages. Hartman suggests an alternative view found in the teachings of Nachmanides. In contrast to Maimonides and his rationality, restriction on the validity of miraculous intervention, and his view of the normal course of human events, Nachmanides a view more embracing of the prophetic tradition that views God as much more involved in the affairs of the world and whose presence can be tangibly experienced. Nachman’s model views Sinai more idealistically perhaps and views the messianic age as a return to the ideal nature of Gan Eden.

Hartman, nevertheless, points out that both saw the act of “knowing” God as a reality to be experienced even outside of the mechanism of halakhah. Hartman continues with a consideration of how rabbinic and biblical worlds perceived the character of God and concludes that both worlds perceived the struggle to approach God as extremely difficult. On the one hand God could be known for his consultation of Abraham before the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah. God includes Abraham in his decision and his plans can be affected by Abraham’s response. Yet this view of God’s commitment to engaging man as a partner is contrasted with God’s seemingly cruel order to Aaron not to mourn for the loss of Nadav and Abihu. The character of God, easily Hartman contends is very complex and this partly explains the various views in Judaism on how to relate to God.

The Vocal Range of Freddie Mercury: (G1-)C♯2-F5(-F6)

2012

Author: The Oracle

Freddie Mercury’s legendary voice is known all around the world. His influence on singing, unique style, powerful high notes and solid lower range have granted him the reputation of ‘one of the greatest singers of all time’. Often mistaken as a high baritone or a leggiero tenor, Mercury was actually a low tenor during his musical career. His singing style during 80′s started to get much raspier and he sounded identically like a baritone in many of his performances from that era. His voice is best described as a really low tenor with baritonish qualities. 1. 0:00 – Really good baritonish singing from “The Golden Boy” bottoming at B♭2. 2. 0:13 – Quick B♭2 from “Guide Me Home/How Can I Go On (Alternative Version)”. 3. 0:20 – Really good and baritonish A2s from “I’m Going Slightly Mad”, Innuendo is one of Queen’s best albums! 4. 0:32 – Lots of A2s from the backing vocals of “Flick of the Wrist”. 5. 0:40 – Strong A2s and one vocal fry G1 (non-modal) from “Ride the Wild Wind”. 6. 1:02 – A2s from the backing vocals of “The March of the Black Queen”, Mercury also hits great clean high C (C5) before the lows. 7. 1:07 – Quick G♯2 from “Cool Cat”. 8. 1:12 – Booming G♯2s and short G2s from “Somebody to Love”. 9. 1:19 – Really subtle G2s from the legendary vocal harmonies of “Bohemian Rhapsody”. 10. 1:25 – G2 from the vocal harmonies of “Bicycle Race”. 11. 1:30 – Strong G2 from the vocal harmonies of “Bring Back That Leroy Brown”. 12. 1:35 – Solid F2 from “Don’t Try Suicide”. 13 …

Lisa Smith-Batchen Does 50 Better

Author: The Oracle

Lisa Smith-Batchen Does 50 Better

About to turn 50 in 2010, ultra-distance runner Lisa Smith-Batchen wanted to do something special that would raise tons of money for her favorite cause, orphaned children. Having already run about 50 ultras (races longer than a 26.2-mile marathon), including a couple of running firsts (first person to run from Las Vegas to Mt. Whitney — 306 miles in 2008 and a Badwater double to the top of Mt. Whitney — 310 miles in 2006), Lisa was interested in completing an even bigger run — something that had never been done before. What she came up with was to run a 50-mile ultra in each of the 50 states over the course of 62 days.

Starting in New Jersey, in April of 2010, zigzagging from state to state in an RV, Lisa completed her quest in her home state of Idaho on June 19, right on schedule. She accomplished this despite the extreme roller-coaster of emotions such a physically-demanding undertaking takes on one, managing an average of only four hours of sleep each night and a broken foot (she felt the pain on day 27 of this 2,500-mile run, but didn’t get the diagnosis of a broken bone in her left foot until after she finished).

Because Lisa persevered through very sore hips and legs for the first two weeks, badly swollen sore feet along the way, weather extremes, AND a broken bone, this mother of two adopted daughters was able to raise over $ 600,000 for orphaned children. If you’d like to donate, you can visit: runhope.com

While most of us see turning 50 as a time to slow down and take it easier because “we’re not getting any younger …,” Lisa Smith-Batchen saw it as an opportunity — an opportunity to go BIG. As a result, not only is she helping countless children who have lost their parents, but she is, also, showing the rest of us that 50 isn’t that old after all.

Is there any CREDIBLE support for the law of attraction?

29 FEB
2012

Author: The Oracle

Question by ComfortZone: Is there any CREDIBLE support for the law of attraction?
Meaning, anytime I hear anyone with anything they claim supports the Law of Attraction, there’s always someone saying “more New Age nonsense” or “they’re misinterpreting/twisting scientific principles” or “that’s just anecdotal and it can’t be proven.”

Are there examples of evidence for the Law of Attraction that nay-sayers don’t have such an easy time dismissing? Evidence that comes from people whose credibility isn’t so easily attacked?

Serious answers only please, either supporters or nay-sayers, just have serious answers to contribute.

Best answer:

Answer by eri
No. There is no ‘law of attraction’. They just made it up to sell their book. Anyone who invokes quantum mechanics or string theory to explain something is 9 times out of 10 just making it up. Next time, ask them to write you the wave equation if it can be explained using QM. Or which particle discovery would prove it if it were ST.

Basically, if you want something, go out and get it. If sitting on the couch and wishing things were different worked, no one would ever bother working at all.
