The Catholic Church has a magisterium - its teachings have a God-given authority that is equal to the authority of scripture. The Pope has even got the power to make infallible statements - statements that cannot be questioned. Within Protestant churches, the church has an advisory role. It can recommend one action over another, it can condemn certain actions entirely - you can even be kicked out of the church for certain actions. However, the individual is still left to decide where to stand in relation to church teaching.
The third criteria is transience, meaning it is temporary and cannot be sustained, although its effects may last a long time. Lastly, the experience must be passive, it isn’t initiated by the individual but rather they have a sense that something is acting upon them. James suggests that religious experience may be seen as ‘psychological phenomena’, therefore possessing not divine quality. Ultimately, though, James does not desire to disprove the possibility of divine involvement in metaphysical occurrences. He argues that we should all be open to the possibility of religious experiences due to the similar nature of these events, despite cultural barriers.
Perfection of technique, contrary to popular belief does not and should not ever have to be separated from attitudeThe main difference between a mental game coach and a psychotherapist is that a mental game coach works with athletes on sports performance enhancement and not personal challenges or abnormal behavior” (Cohn). Dr. Patrick Cohn presents another myth in his publication, When is Sports Psychology Useful?. He writes about the view stating that the physical and mental aspects of sports are separate from each other; although, both of these aspects go hand-in-hand.

On the other hand its weakness is that human can affect it in other aspects besides deathless and birth less nature but in definition they do not recognize that. Prominence over human welfare and determinative nature regarding human experience –since both deal with human then they can be combined. The strength is that it when we put our lives according to the sacred we are likely to live a life free of problem associated to ungodliness. On the other hand it is important to perceive the true reality that underlies our religion .If we don’t do so we are likely to suffer and destroy what is already positive about our religion hence suffering. In that case religion will be the dividing factor instead of a bonding factor as it should
Even though Lennie is a different person from the other people, he has good intentions. Lennie is not smart enough but he can be a good friend. He is loyal and people can trust him. That the reason why George is Lennie’s friend. George does not care about Lennie’s situation and he trust in him as Lennie trust in George.
He likes to believe he is right and enjoys the feeling of being superior in his theories and thoughts against those of other people. We see it a lot with his lies and deceits. He doesn’t ever give up on his lies even when people are skeptical because he wants to believe he is right and they are wrong. For example when he was at the Grangerfold household, he was almost caught forgetting his own name, but with his sharp wit he turns it around and asks for it to be spelled for him. He didn’t want to be noticed for lying and told he was wrong.
A benefit for my position would be that you don't have to do something just because some deity or someone says its right. You do something because you know its right. Also, you are not restricted in what you do by something. You can live your life how you want to. But a drawback would be that you wouldn't be living for goodness or for a deity, you would be living for yourself and this could seem selfish to some.
For this instance, this is not the case, society must constantly correct immoral actions performed by certain individuals. These individuals originate from diverse backgrounds and religions, and where as there is no specific religion that can be solely liable. Therefore, it becomes necessary to determine how violence and religion can simultaneously exist because the nature of these two elements seems to be contradictory. To begin with, there are two particular explanations in which introduce some historical examples of religion and violence intertwining, and illustrate how those two entities (religion and violence) can coexist. One explanation states that certain individuals feel that violence is relatively harmless, and therefore feel no remorse in performing violent acts.
It can come in any shape and form. Everyone does have some good in them but it may not always outweigh the evil. As well everyone has evil in them to but it may not show all the time. Everybody is different in their own way. Good men are hard to find because even most men don’t want to revile the good in them.
The decline in religion can be caused by personal or societal barriers. These personal experiences can be the result of witnessing the acts of others that cause their own religious beliefs and morals to be questioned. Even the outward appearance of society’s devotion to God and religion can be more routine and done out of necessity. This blasé attitude can adversely affect religion. To secure their religious beliefs people will block out, or create a barrier to protect themselves from feelings or emotions they deem as evil.
