What religion believes in no god?

Belief in more than one god is called polytheism. Apart from the related religions of Judaism, Islam and Christianity, nearly all the rest of the world's religions are pantheistic. These include Hinduism, Confucianism, Buddhism, Taoism and Shintoism.

Why are some religions intolerant in their outlook?

A:Religions are all to some extent in a competitive environment. One of the few ways in which they can compete for adherent is by asserting that other beliefs are wrong. While some religions do so graciously and with tact, some religions demand that the listener believe all other religions to be wrong. By teaching that unbelievers will go to hell, they can then take the next step and say that anyone who does not follow the truth is condemned to eternal life in hell. This is the road to religious intolerance. The Abrahamic religions (Christianity, Islam and, to some extent, Judaism), being monotheistic have a special tendency to intolerance. A follower of a polytheistic religion has no particular problem if someone else believes in yet another god. But the Abrahamic religions teach that there is only one God, so everyone who worships any other god if wrong. Not only wrong, but potentially calling the Jew, Christian or Muslim a liar! To extremists, the response has been to burn the sacred texts, destroy the statues ('idols') and temples, and persecute the believers.


What do you call people who convert from one religion to another?

An Anthropologist is one good answer, they study all religions as a consistently arrising social phenomenon. It is a social institution on all levels of social order, hard to detect in lower primates but i suspect it is there in a nacent form. So what is going on? Humanity is working to assure the growth of consciousness will have a path forward anon, and that the kids do not have to make the same foolish mistakes the ancestors made; we have taboo, precept, and commandment-WORD! To honour the efforts of all religions and to thereby transcend the divisive is to aproach religion from the state of intellectual freedom. This being the case, lets call this intrepid soul, free. So, a person who believes in all religions is free; that is my answer. -------- Another answer is - one who follows the Baha'i faith. (http://www.bahai.org/)


What can religion cause?

Depends on the person. People have used religious beliefs to start wars & to promote peace. Thus, religion can "cause" literally every type of human response possible. The religions themselves tend to promote treating other people the way you want them to treat you though.

What is the the role of cyclic AMP in cell proliferation?

Cyclic AMP is a secondary messenger that regulates cell proliferation by activating protein kinase A (PKA). PKA then phosphorylates target proteins involved in cell cycle progression, gene expression, and other cellular processes that drive cell proliferation. Overall, cyclic AMP signaling pathways play a crucial role in coordinating the cell's response to proliferative signals.


What is a primary response?

A primary response is the initial reaction of the immune system to an antigen or pathogen it encounters for the first time. It involves the activation and rapid proliferation of specific immune cells, such as T and B cells, to eliminate the foreign invader. This response helps establish immunological memory for future encounters with the same antigen.


What is spindle cell proliferation?

Spindle cells are what make up the body's connective tissue, fat, muscle, bone, cartilage, and blood vessels. Proliferation is fibroplastic response in granulomatous inflammation, which may be hard to tell if it is benign or malignant neoplasms.


Which lymphoid organ serves in immune surveillance and in filtering lymph?

Spleen •Site of lymphocyte proliferation and immune surveillance and response •Cleanses the blood of aged cells and platelets and debris


What cells are responsible for making the secondary immune response work?

A hallmark of immune reponses is memory for specific antigens that have triggered immune responses in the past. Immunological memory is due to the presence of a long- lasting antibodies and very long-lived lymphocytes that arise during proliferation and differentiation of antigen-stimulated B cells anf T cells. Every new encounter with the same anigen results in a rapid proliferation of memory cells. Therefore the antibody titer is far more greater than during a primary response and consist mainly of IgG antibodies. This secondary response.


What is a beryllium lymphocyte proliferation test?

beryllium lymphocyte proliferation test (BeLPT), a blood test that can detect beryllium sensitivity (i.e. an allergic reaction to beryllium), is used to screen individuals at risk of developing berylliosis.


Is the proliferation and growth of any microorganism or virus in any area of the body?

Proliferation and growth of microorganisms or viruses in the body can lead to infection, causing symptoms such as fever, inflammation, and tissue damage. The immune system responds by mobilizing immune cells to combat the invading pathogens, leading to an inflammatory response. If left unchecked, the infection can spread and potentially lead to more severe complications.


What is anergy?

Anergy is a state of T-cell unresponsiveness where the immune system is unable to mount a response to specific antigens. This can occur to prevent autoimmune reactions or due to T-cell exhaustion. Anergy is characterized by the lack of T-cell activation and proliferation in response to antigen stimulation.


What is the single most important event in establishing a primary immune response?

The recognition of an antigen by a naive T or B cell is the most important event in establishing a primary immune response. This recognition leads to activation and proliferation of these cells, resulting in the generation of specific immune responses to combat the antigen.


Which of the christian religions have got it right?

The best way to find out would be to investigate them all and make your own decision. You are unlikely to find an unbiased response from an individual.


What are plant tumors?

A localized proliferation of plant tissue forming a swelling or outgrowth, commonly with a characteristic shape and unlike any organ of the normal plant. Plant tumors or galls usually form in response to the action of a pathogen or a pest. These are also known as Galls...


What is foci of gliosis?

proliferation of astrocytes in the central nervous system in response to injury - resulting in scar formation. It can occur to peripheral nerves, spinal motor and/or sensory tracts, or cranial nerves. Gliosis results in hardening of the structure that it affects and decreased function of that structure.
