Crucifixion: The Paradox Of Omniscience

No one really believed him until it was too late. People were sent off into concentration camps, the camps were made to keep prisoners and then kill them once they prove that they have no use anymore. People were separated. Families and friends weren’t put into the same places

The Holocaust was a horrible event where the Nazis killed six million Jews and five million Gentiles. One of the most celebrated survivors of this awful event and the winner of the 1986 Nobel Peace Prize, Eliezer Wiesel, wrote a memoir about the event called Night, where you can see Elie changes throughout his years in the Holocaust. Elie’s horrid traumatic experiences from the Holocaust altered his relationship with God and his physical appearance. Because of the Holocaust, Elie’s relationship with God adjusted.

Example, risking his life and putting everything he worked for in jeopardy. As the Holocaust was a period in time, full of unimaginable terrors. All because he knew it was the right thing to do. Many

Once he got there, he saw a conflagration which led to innocent children getting burned in the crematorium. The Holocaust was an unimaginable event in the past. Some people act like the Holocaust never existed because of how grim it was. People who survived the Holocaust will never forget their experience because they lost some of their family members.

Destiny over Free will Free will is a term unheard of nowhere days because of how much the media portrays that we have to do what other people say such as politicians. Some people are destined to think that everything we say and do has already been written out in a script somewhere in heaven and that God already knows what we are going to do before we even do it. People do not possess free will but are governed by fate because in Dante's Inferno the people who were brought down to hell were brought down because they were destined to go down the wrong path and that's why they are in hell and there are special places for people whose fate was a little too heinous and they were forced to go in the middle of heaven and hell and sometimes other people are also destined to lead us to our fate such as Virgil in Dante's inferno. People do not possess free will but are governed by fate because we think we have a choice to change our decisions but what if

He accuses, and the accused was God. His eyes were open and he was alone in a world without God and without man. Without love and mercy. In Auschwitz, even Orthodox rabbis lost faith. But when he felt crushed, his faith, lost grounds to fight and began to die.

The differences in his character and daily life where astronomic due to this event. This occurrence changed the outcome of the rest of his life and how he would deal with different situations in the years that followed. By living though this unimaginable historic event it help him become a writer that helped the world see the Holocaust through his eyes.

He began his journey of suffering believing God would save him and all the other jews that were in the concentration camps, but as time went on his faith became dimmer and dimmer until it was completely lost. He counted on god to do what he believed as necessary to save people, but God never did.

Paradoxes Now with the possibility of backwards causation there arises some paradoxes within the view. Namely, there are three different types of paradoxes to talk about, the Bootstrap Paradox, the Consistency Paradox, and Newcomb’s Paradox. The one that we will focus on, and I believe holds that most weight against backwards causation is Newcomb’s Paradox. The paradox in short is that a person is given a choice between two boxes, by a fortune teller who can fully predict the choice of the person. The boxes contain one thousand dollars in a clear box, box A, and an opaque box, box B, that either contains one million dollars or no money at all.

Constantine the Great is one of the most prominent figures of the ancient world who has dramatically influenced the history of the modern world. Constantine’s triumph of political dominance of his time, led to the success of Christianity rising as the dominant religion in the Roman word, and perhaps the modern world. Constantine was the son of Helena and Constantius. In 289 AD, the western emperor chose Constantius to serve him. Constantius and Galerius were promoted to Caesar and eventually to Augusti.

But real free will, according to Taylor, appears in case of strong evaluations which determine important actions and decisions. Taylor, as well as Campbell, supposes that a person who makes acts has free choice to act in another way. And, “according to our definition, the act was freely performed. So not only would such acts be free, but they are also acts for which someone could be held morally responsible” (Free Will). So, Taylor assumes that moral responsibility is reflected in free choice of a person.

These people were tremendously diverse, but each one had unique way of making a difference. Some of these people include Constantine the Great, who was the emperor of the Romans. Another person who helped construct and aid in the expansion of the religion was the Apostle Paul, a Roman born missionary who preached his ideas amongst others. Paul was one of the most important people in the history of Christianity. This was due to the fact that he was one of the original missionaries and it was said that Jesus had came to

Morita therapy was founded by late Dr. Shoma Morita (1874-1938) M.D. in the 1910’s.

Morita therapy is a Japanese therapy used for treating various anxiety-related issues.

“I believe the freedom to choose my course in life but I do not believe I am free to choose the consequences of my

Humans have free will, but God knows their fate. In Book V of the City of God, Saint Augustine discusses the matter of fate and free will pertaining to having a relationship with God. Within that section of the text he makes many statements about how humans have the freedom to make their own choices, but God ultimately knows the outcome. Logically, this make sense. If God created everything, then this would mean He has created everything in the past, present and future.
