Short answer: No.

It alleges that there is a problem that "anything that exists must have a cause, the universe exists, and therefore then universe must have a cause." and replaces it with a bigger problem: By saying that God is the first cause you are saying that God exists and therefore the argument applies to God and God must have a cause. This would then become infinite as whatever caused God must have a cause and whatever caused that must have a cause and so on.

The other big problem is that the argument doesn't even say that the first cause had to be God, it just says there had to be a first cause... That first cause could have been natural.

Answer:

The above answer hints at something which atheist (and indeed theist) philosophers widely regard as false. If God is used as an explanation for the universe, then we do not need to apply arguments of cause to God. This is a mistake that many prominent atheists (notably Richard Dawkins) make when they say "God doesn't explain anything, because you can just ask who made God?"

A counterexample for the idea that explanations must be explainable is subatomic particles. We said there are protons and neutrons and electrons because they explained the behaviour of atoms, even though it turned the small question "why are atoms like that?" into a much bigger question "why are electrons and protons and neutrons like that?"

The reason why the cosmological argument is largely dismissed by philosophers is that it relies on a number of difficult assumptions (A-model of time, laws within the universe to apply to the universe as a whole, rigidity of logic outside of the universe, etc.) is highly speculative (we have no real evidence to push us either way) and any conclusion one way or the other would actually be meaningless. If we conclude that there does have to be a first cause, then what was it? It could be a scientific anomaly, a cosmic accident, any of the deities worshipped by the millions of religions throughout history, or one that none of them managed to find.

This would depend on the kind of class and the particular prayer you are looking for. Some examples are:

• Lord, may all that we do this day, from morning until the end of our classes, begin with your inspiration, and continue with your powerful help. May our work this day be rooted in love and mercy, that we may love you, and love our neighbors, as perfectly as you love us. We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.

• In the USA, it is illegal under the establishment clause of the First Amendment for any employee of a public school to lead students in or require students to pray. Do not open your school class with a prayer.
• The following opening prayer may be used in sectarian religious schools and in other schools if permitted by the education authorities, although individual children may require to be excused from participating in this ceremony. As there are legal considerations, express permission should be sought in schools other than religious schools: Dear God / Help us to cooperate when having a group activities / Guide us to listen to teacher attentively / This we ask in Jesus name.

A penny, a rabbits foot, a rock, a necklace, any coin can be consider to be a good luck charm.The four-leaf clover is the best known lucky symbol around the world and across many very different cultures. It is the most common yet the hardest to find. On average, there are 100,000 three leaf clovers for every instance of a true four leaf clover.

A written charm has the most power.

The word maṇḍala (मण्डल) comes from the ancient Indian language Sanskrit, and means "circle." Maṇḍala refers to the sections of work of the Ṛgveda, and is also used to describe imagry in spiritual practice and meditation within the Indian traditions, including Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism. An example of a maṇḍala from these religions would be the geometric designs called yantras.

One theory on the origin of maṇḍalas (particularly yantras), is based on the geometric patterns created by sound frequency. Each frequency arranges particles in a different pattern, as illustrated by sand on a drum or speaker. This suggests that maṇḍalas (yantras) may be linked with the concept of creation through sound - Speech (Sanskrit, vāk - वाक्) or Word (Greek, logos - λόγος).

The term maṇḍala is sometimes applied to similar imagry found outside of Indian religions, including Christianity (eg. celtic cross) and Native American traditions (eg. medicine wheels).

Answer 1:

No. People cannot morph into animals. There were some rumors that, back in the early ages, people were able to morph into animals and there were various stories on that. Today, however, you cannot morph into an animal. Although some people claim that morphing into animals is possible, it is indeed impossible. Answer 2:

It is a belief among many tribal people that man can, or used to, have this ability, as: * Yes, and they are called "Navajo Skinwalkers" -- Yeenaaldlooshii in Navajo -- and they do exist. * I have read Native American stories that they used to morph into animals: the "Mothman" for example... I don't think people can do that... As a spirit, YES, but because they have no shape at all. * They can in the books "Animorphs." They are really good books for 12-year-olds. * Our friends the Vikings thought warriors could morph into bears during battle. These were the "Berserkers" (Bear shirts). * There's an amusing Cree (North Alberta Tribe) tale called "Deer Feces Woman," where a young man falls in love with a girl after being lost in the forest. By spring they have a baby -- then she turns back into a pile of deer scat.

Zeus, the Greek god, could turn into animals on demand. * In Hrolf Kraki's "Saga," a story written about the same time as "Beowulf," several of the characters turn into animals or part-animals. * We all have friends who turn into orangutans after a beer or few. * The only known case of this is that of the aboriginal people of Australia. Prior to colonization it was used as a traditional hunting method for Kangaroos and other flighty game. * When Australia was colonized the Europeans considered this to be a form of "devil worshiping witchcraft" and promptly put to death all known elders who were capable of carrying out this amazing feat. * It is rumored that the ability may not have been completely lost and that some aboriginal people living in the deep interior of Australia still use it as a method of hunting. Answer 3:

It is physically impossible for humans to change into animals, period.
