Jesus son of a bitch
The document discusses the religious figure of Jesus and debates his origins and status as the son of God or a prophet. It notes that while many religions acknowledge Jesus, they disagree on key details like whether he was resurrected after being crucified or taken down alive from the cross. The document questions the historical accuracy of the biblical stories surrounding Jesus' conception and mother Mary, arguing there are no credible records of them. Ultimately, it presents religious stories as providing messages about morality and encourages finding inspiration from the Easter story of Jesus arising from darkness to spread love.
Lovitation
The document discusses the concept of "lovitation", which it defines as opening one's heart and spirit through love to enlighten their path in life. It describes how two people can experience "peak love" together that becomes a permanent part of them. It then recounts the author's experience at university with a special girl where they experienced a deep transformation through love. The author later researched this experience in New York and found a book from India that confirmed their experiences on the "love path to superconsciousness". The document encourages people to tap into the depths of love within themselves and with others to raise consciousness and blossom to their full potential.
Jesus was a man of sincerity
This is a study of Jesus as a man of sincerity. Jesus meant what He said both in blessing and condemnation.
Exploring the Magical: Pilgrimage and the Enchantment of Place
This document discusses the concept of pilgrimage as a sacred journey that allows one to see the world as still enchanted rather than fully disenchanted. It provides perspectives from several authors on how pilgrimage can be a search for the divine that transforms ordinary travel into a life-changing experience through practices like attention, renewal, exploring places deeply, and rituals. One author notes pilgrimage allows one to see the sacred as present everywhere in mystery and beauty.

"Questioning one with another what the rising from
the dead should mean." — Mark 9 : 10.
WHAT the rising from the dead shall
mean to us depends on what manner
of men we are. No fact is the same
fact for all people. The richness and power
of the fact depend on the richness and power
of the life into which the fact comes. What
does the rising of the sun mean as it comes
up out of the ocean in the morning? To the
brown crag on the shore the rising of the
sun means nothing at all. To the flower that
clings to the top of the crag the sunrise means
a thrill in the sap, an unfolding of the leaf,
a deepening of the color on the petal.

This document contains information about a church including its Facebook pages, email address, and lyrics to three songs - "I Will Enter His Gates", "Blessed Be Your Name", and "You Are So Faithful". The songs praise and worship God, expressing gratitude for his faithfulness and blessings. They declare God is lovely, holy, and the risen Savior.
Mother teresa
Mother Teresa was a Catholic nun who dedicated her life to serving the poor in India. She founded the Missionaries of Charity and helped those suffering from poverty, disease, hunger and lack of love. Some of her most famous quotes emphasize spreading love through small acts of kindness, seeing God in everyone, and caring for the unwanted, unloved and uncared for. She taught that true happiness comes from selflessly serving others.

Hymn To Love 1 Cor13
Paul describes love as the most important virtue. Without love, even possessing great gifts or faith are worthless. Love is patient, kind, and does not envy or boast. It bears all things and hopes all things. Paul is in awe of Christ's love for humanity in dying for sins, which drives Paul with ecstasy to share that love with others.

The document focuses on the French town of Lourdes as an important Christian pilgrimage site, describing the visions of Mary experienced by Bernadette there in 1858.

“Walking Out of Darkness" is a book about moving beyond loss and living a more fulfilling life. We wrote “Walking Out of Darkness” to be a comfort to anyone that has lost someone in their life, or is going through a difficult time in life. No matter how devastating a loss or challenge in life may seem, there is beauty in the world around us. In this book, we try to encourage readers to recognize and appreciate the magnificence and beauty that surrounds us.
The wife of bath take 2

The analysis will: 1) summarize The Wife of Bath's tale; 2) provide context on Chaucer's social circles; 3) describe accepted female norms; and 4) show how The Wife of Bath refutes ideals of female piousness. The character defies expectations of female behavior and asserts women's dominance through her defiance and reinterpretation of the Bible.

The Great Divorce
The document provides background and summaries of chapters from C.S. Lewis's book The Great Divorce. It discusses how Lewis was inspired by a 17th century sermon about souls in hell getting temporary relief through God's mercy. It then summarizes several conversations between souls in a purgatorial town, debating topics like materialism, humanism, religion, and the differences between Roman Catholic and Protestant views of purgatory and salvation. The summaries examine how none fully understand God's nature and judgments until after death, and that introducing others to Jesus should take priority over denominational differences.

Many of the quotes emphasize opening our hearts to others through acts of kindness, charity, and goodwill especially towards those in need.
Immortally Splashed
Various body parts and living things experience joy from being splashed by different sensations. Eyes love being splashed by empathy, lips by smiles, hair by breeze, spiders by silk, grass by dewdrops, ears by sounds, skin by rain, snakes by venom, nests by eggs, walls by color, children by belonging, sky by clouds, bodies by cloth, flowers by bees, artists by color, mothers by innocence, the depressed by freshness, blinded men by humanity, noses by breath, and hearts by togetherness in relationships across births.
Sujeet and bhavika
This poem discusses finding a lifelong partner and holding onto them through the ups and downs of life's journey together. It notes that acquaintances come and go but a person meant for a lifetime should never be let go. The journey of a relationship will have detours and challenges but staying committed to one another and remembering the commitment made on their wedding day will help the couple get through any tough times. It wishes the couple a forever love and respect for one another.
The wife of bath
This proposal compares the gender roles and expectations for women in Chaucer's time with the character of the Wife of Bath from his work. The student will analyze how the Wife of Bath challenges these norms by having a strong, outspoken personality and interpreting the Bible in her own way. Specific points that will be covered include providing context on societal norms, the Wife of Bath's refutation of ideals of piousness, and a comparison of her character with what was typically acceptable behavior for women in the 14th century.
Lyrics
The document contains lyrics from multiple Christian songs that discuss putting one's faith and trust in Jesus Christ. They address finding strength, comfort, and guidance from God even when facing trials, weakness, uncertainty, or feeling lost.

Motherteresa
Friends there could never have been a better living example as a 'TRUE SERVANT to the SOCIETY' of what Christ taught.

Mother teresa
Mother Teresa was a Catholic nun and missionary who dedicated her life to serving the poor and sick in India. She founded the Missionaries of Charity and won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1979 for her humanitarian work. In her own words, she taught that true love is shown through compassionate acts of kindness and service to others, especially those who are unwanted, unloved, and suffering from poverty.
Away we go
Burt and Verona promise that if they have a daughter, they will let her be any weight she wants and focus on her happiness, not obsessing over weight. They promise to truly listen to her when she's scared and support her in fights. Burt jokes that if he dies, Verona should tell their daughter it was in intense hand-to-hand combat saving Chechnyan orphans. Verona agrees to this made up story. The document laments that relationships portrayed in media focus too much on the "crazy" aspects of love rather than the stability and companionship of long-term relationships. It argues works of fiction would be less cliché if they shifted focus from the emotional highs and
If this were all (2013 rev)
This poem argues that if this life were all there is and there is nothing after death, then human struggles and goals would seem pointless. It states that without an afterlife or God's plan, there would be no purpose to life's struggles or reason to have faith, hope, or dreams. However, the poem asserts that life must be a gateway to a finer world after death and that there must be a divine God who has a plan, otherwise life would be silly and grim.
Maslow Poetry
I used poetry to introduce students to Maslow, and Maslow to get students to explore poetry. It was a day of self reflection and analysis. My use of Maslow stresses the need to have a safe, belonging environment if students are to succeed academically.

The document summarizes the Caucasus Barometer, an annual representative survey conducted in Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Georgia since 2004. It collects data on social, economic, and political opinions through core repeating questions and rotating topic blocks from over 5,700 respondents. The survey provides an overview of socioeconomic situations, perceptions of the international environment and tolerance, the impact of the crisis on employment and economic behavior, media and sources of information, and other topics for the South Caucasus region.
Towards The Result Based Utility Sector In Armenia
This document summarizes a study on performance-based management in Armenia's water supply sector. It outlines reforms to the sector including privatization deals. It analyzes key performance indicators used by water supply companies before and after private sector involvement. Results included improved access, duration and quality of water services as well as higher bill collection rates. However, some challenges remained regarding public access to information and accountability. The study recommends expanding performance metrics and increasing transparency and responsiveness to improve customer satisfaction.
The Number and Reintegration of Armenian Migrants Returned to Homeland from t...
This document summarizes a research study on Armenian migrants who returned to Armenia from the USA between 1991-2008. It provides data on the numbers and characteristics of returnees, the main reasons for return, and challenges with reintegration. The conclusion recommends developing a nationwide repatriation program to better facilitate and support the return of Armenian migrants to their homeland.
Domestically Issued Public Debt As A Sustainable Alternative
Armenia has issued domestic public debt since 1995 to finance government activities and borrowing needs. Domestic debt currently makes up a larger portion of Armenia's total public debt than in the past. However, Armenia's domestic debt market has weaknesses like high interest rates, a weak investor base consisting mostly of commercial banks, and a thin secondary market. To develop Armenia's domestic debt market in a sustainable way, the document recommends that Armenia establish a debt management strategy, implement pension reforms, broaden its network of primary dealers, and standardize debt instruments and issuance calendars.
Corruption Survey of Enterprises 2009
The document summarizes the results of corruption surveys conducted in Armenia in 2009 among households and enterprises. Some key findings include:
- 400 enterprise leaders were surveyed with a margin of error of ±4.9%
- 28.8% of surveyed businesses reported having a female in a top management position
- Corruption was seen as a serious problem in Armenia by both households and enterprises
- Unofficial payments to public officials were often required for various business operations
- The judicial system and tax administration were seen as the most corrupt institutions
- Respondents believed corruption could be reduced but saw few effective anti-corruption measures by the government

It discusses focusing the writing, using a clear structure like introducing the topic and conclusions, keeping writing concise with short sentences, and properly citing sources to avoid plagiarism. Tips are provided on writing style, structure, improving writing skills, and publishing articles in peer-reviewed journals.
eResources for Research
This document provides a summary of various eResources that can be used for research, including scholarly databases, survey reports and datasets, and useful links. It describes several databases like JSTOR, Project Muse, World Development Indicators, and EbscoHost that provide access to academic journals, publications, and statistics. It also lists survey datasets from the CRRC Data Initiative and other organizations on topics like corruption, labor migration, and demography in Armenia. Finally, it provides links to resources on research methodology.
Humanitarian Intervention
The document discusses various topics related to humanitarian intervention and sovereignty including:
1. The responsibility to protect principle holds that states have a primary responsibility to protect civilians, and the international community has a secondary responsibility to assist or intervene if the state is unwilling or unable to protect its population from mass atrocities.
2. There is debate around when and how humanitarian intervention should take place, with questions around the role of the UN Security Council and criteria for determining just cause.
3. While humanitarian intervention has become more accepted, it remains a highly political issue and requires balancing concerns of sovereignty and preventing mass atrocities or genocide. Global consensus and prevention should be the ultimate goals.
Household Corruption Survey 2009
The document summarizes key findings from corruption surveys conducted in Armenia in 2008 and 2009. It finds that corruption is still perceived as a major problem, though some indicators show slight improvements over the previous year. Respondents believe corruption exists across many levels of government and sectors of society. However, most people are still reluctant to report corrupt acts due to lack of faith in the system and fear of retaliation. The government is not seen as very effective in its anti-corruption efforts.
State of Armenian Irregular Migrants in Turkey
The document summarizes the findings of a research study on the state of Armenian migrants in Turkey. It finds that 94% of Armenian workers in Turkey are women who work in jobs like house cleaning and childcare. While Armenian migrants initially had fears about Turkey before arriving, their attitudes change positively after experiencing the cultural similarities between Turkish and Armenian people. However, Armenian children born in Turkey cannot access education and face an uncertain future due to a lack of citizenship rights.
IMF Regional Economic Outlook for the Caucasus and Central Asia
The document summarizes the International Monetary Fund's November 2009 regional economic outlook report for the Caucasus and Central Asia region. It finds that while the global economy is beginning to recover from the crisis, recovery in the CCA region will be modest, with growth expected to pick up in 2010 following a downturn in 2009. The crisis hit the region's energy importing countries hard through sharp drops in remittances and exports. Macroeconomic policies across the region were made more accommodative to counter the crisis impacts. Financial sectors remain stressed with rising non-performing loans. Poverty levels may rise in energy importers due to factors like lower incomes and employment. Sustained fiscal stimulus and financial sector stabilization will be important for recovery
Rewire Your Brain
- The document discusses how the brain can be rewired through neuroplasticity and how experiences shape neural connections. Repeated activation of neural pathways strengthens those connections while inactive pathways weaken over time.
- It also describes the different roles of the left and right hemispheres, with the right hemisphere specialized for holistic, emotional processing and the left for language and analytical thinking. Chronic stress can impact brain structures like the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex.
The Sources and Uses of Survey Data on Armenia
1. The document discusses several data sources on Armenia including the Business Environment and Enterprise Performance Survey (BEEPS), Life in Transition Survey (LiTS), population census, and household surveys.
2. BEEPS examines the business environment in Armenia by surveying firms. LiTS provides individual-level data by surveying households to assess how transition has affected lives.
3. Examples are given of how the data from these sources has been used such as analyzing how tax evasion varies with bribery using BEEPS data, and studying income mobility and the impact of remittances on education spending using LiTS data.
Institutional Sources of Corruption in the Case of Armenia
This document analyzes the relationship between perceptions of corruption in Armenia and three institutional sources: formal rules, informal rules, and enforcement mechanisms. Statistical models show perceptions of enforcement mechanisms and informal rules significantly correlate with perceived corruption, but not formal rules. Higher education levels also correlate with higher perceived corruption. The document recommends reforms like transparency laws and judicial reforms to strengthen enforcement mechanisms to reduce corruption by impacting informal norms.
Civil Society and Corruption
This document summarizes research on Armenian public perceptions of NGOs and corruption. The research questions examined how NGOs are perceived in relation to corruption, and whether certain groups are more willing to counter corruption. The results found that NGOs have a "shallow positive" image and are not well known. Those willing to counter corruption tended to be urban residents of Yerevan and Tavush with higher education and incomes in the 120,000-240,000 AMD range monthly. Anti-corruption activists constituted around 1% of respondents.
Freedom of Expression and Censorship in Armenia
This document summarizes the results of a sociological study on public perceptions of freedom of expression in Armenia. It describes the methodology, including focus group discussions and in-depth interviews. The main findings show that perceptions of freedom of expression differ based on context, with more tolerance in economic and legal spheres compared to individual and political spheres. Participants' views are categorized into traditional, political, and liberal types of thinking regarding acceptable limitations and regulation of freedom of expression.
