Faith, Spiritual Teachings
Faith and Human Freedom
December 7, 2017 SiteAdmin
By Rev. Peter M. Buss
“And many more believed because of His own word; and they said unto the woman, Now we believe, not because of your saying: for we have heard Him ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Savior of the world” (John 4:41, 42).
“Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free” John 8:32).
Our freedom is limited in all sorts of ways and at different times of our lives. A child grows up under authority and learns to take orders. He also learns his parents’ ideas of morality and his parents’ religion. He has to obey the rules of the school, of the town in which he lives, of his country. He is taught to look up to and obey those in higher positions than he, and he comes to have a feeling for the authority of man and the power of certain persons. He feels the press of social law — doing what society expects of him. All these things limit his freedom to do what he wants.
Rational society knows that some freedoms should not be given to us. To break the laws of the country should be forbidden unless they are totally and spiritually unjust. We should be bound by social law as well. Society has a right to punish people who show no care for its members in moral matters (see AC 4167 et al).
Some freedoms we should work for and even fight for. We have made a history of doing so, and we have to wish well to all people who are trying to do so throughout the world. The freedom to worship, to speak the truth, to act from conscience, to live where you may make a living — all these things should be guarded by a government which deserves to survive. For these freedoms are part of human longing. They can be smothered for a while, but the human soul yearns for them and will go on looking for them through any oppression.
And one freedom is so important that it is in the hands of the Lord Himself. He won’t let anyone take it away for more than a while. It is the liberty to believe what you want to believe and to love what you want to love. That spiritual freedom is deep within the heart of man, and it can hide where no person can ever go, and it can be protected even when terrible pressures are being put on us to give it up. The Lord holds as inviolate the principle that every human being is free to choose his or her belief, and to cherish his or her chosen loves. You can deny someone the free expression of belief or love, but not the secret, private conviction and enjoyment of them (see DP 129, AC 5854, et al).
In the long run no one can deny us this freedom, but it can be muted and delayed and interfered with over a period of years. A person who is sick is not in full freedom, because the private enjoyments of life are denied him, and he may be afraid of death. A person acting under strong fear is not free: the fear makes him think differently from the way he might otherwise think. Someone who is mentally ill may find his spiritual freedom impaired for a long time.
There are also pressures that can limit it. Some countries, for example, teach their people that disagreeing with the rulers is a crime, and often succeed in limiting free thought (see TCR 814, SD Minor 4772). Society can do that as well: if people are made to feel that merely to express a differing opinion is sinful, they will be pressured into the more acceptable modes of thought. A church can be just as bad if it limits the understanding of truth to what the leaders of the church teach. Anyone in the church can do it too: if you express an idea and someone looks at you with surprise and faint distaste because the idea is “not what the church teaches,” you may feel pressured to relinquish your idea in favor of one that will make you less unpopular.
It’s amazing how deeply the people around us can affect our enjoyment of the most precious freedom there is — the one the Lord guards secretly in our minds so that no one can destroy it forever. It can’t die, but it can be held ransom for months or years; and bits of it can be limited so that we have to wait, maybe until the next life, to feel true spiritual freedom.
The Lord has given the Writings for the New Church to restore that freedom, to establish it at the highest level possible. In His order there is nothing more important, because unless we can turn to Him in freedom, we can’t turn to Him at all. The freedom to choose our loves and our beliefs is so important that He Himself never forces anyone. In fact, He says that were He to force someone to love what is good, that person “would come into such torment and into such a hell that he could not possibly endure it, for he would be miserably deprived of his life” (AC 5854).
The Writings establish and uplift this freedom in several ways. First, they are given to take away the authority of man, to cut through the dogmas or the customs of any organization — even of the church that acknowledges them! They were given to enable people to look not to the learned and the outspoken and the eloquent for guidance, but to the Lord Himself for leadership in all spiritual things. They were given to provide personal, private, and therefore totally free, contact with the Lord and His truth. “If ye abide in My Word, then are ye My disciples indeed, and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”
This last revelation by the Lord is quite different from all those which went before, even though it agrees with them in every point. It is different in its appeal. First of all, it is complete. It talks about all matters of human life, in terms that people can understand. The Old and New Testaments touch on all parts of human life, but often so briefly that people have not understood them. The Writings are a comprehensive, consistent and completely presented description of the Lord’s laws.
They are not just comprehensive. They also have depth. They talk about things that we could never know without the Lord’s telling us. They tell us about the life after death and the spiritual nature of the life we will live there. They tell us secrets about human life here — how, for example, the bond of marriage spiritually changes a young man and woman and prepares them for total love. They tell of the thousands of secret things the Lord is doing when He rebuilds the human heart that turns to Him. Inside of his new revelation there is a depth that will never be plumbed. We will go on learning its secrets for tens of thousands of years and never grow tired of them.
They appeal to that human understanding which longs for truth and goodness. They touch the part of us which wants to see the truth for itself. The Writings aren’t written in the form of commands. They set out our obligations, and they most certainly tell us what is forbidden. But their whole approach is Lo ask us to consider what is said and see if it is true, and only embrace it when we see it. “What the spirit is convinced of,” they say, “is allotted a higher place in the mind than that which enters from authority and the faith of authority without any consultation of the reason” (CL 295). And again they say, “Real faith is nothing else than an acknowledgment that the thing is so because it is true; for one who is in real faith thinks and says, ‘This is true and therefore I believe it.’ … If such a person does not see the truth of a thing, he says, ‘I do not know whether this is true, and therefore as yet I do not believe it. How can I believe what I do not comprehend with the understanding? Perhaps it is false” (Faith 2). It is nonsense to say that we should believe without understanding. The Lord has given us the power to see His truth. “Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”
The freedom to look at truth for ourselves and see it for ourselves; the freedom to find joy in discovering that what He has said is true: the Lord offers us this by telling us of His truth and doing so quietly, without persuasiveness, without threatening us or appealing to anything but our love of the truth.
This can be done only if it is the Lord Himself who reveals these truths. If a brilliant man explains the truth, even if he is enlightened by the Lord Himself, then he can give insights into the truth, but he can’t give freedom! The reason is simple — you are believing the truth on the basis of his understanding and his awareness, and so it is the faith of authority. If the Writings were the work of the most brilliant man who ever lived, they couldn’t make us free. Even if they were the Lord’s revelation to Swedenborg, which he then told us about, our faith in them would be a trust in a man’s understanding of what the Lord showed him. It would be a faith in the authority of some man, and that is limited. Only an explanation of truth which comes directly from the Lord Himself can open the mind. For the Lord reveals the truth in perfect form. It is unsullied by human adjustment and interpretation. It is from His mouth, and there is no fault in the expression, and therefore when we have faith in it we have faith in something pure which our minds can explore in total freedom.
This is the quality of the truth in the Word of the Lord — truth opens all the way to the Lord Himself. It is couched in the language of man, coming apparently through the prophets, through the apostles, through Emanuel Swedenborg. But the truth itself is from the Lord Jesus Christ, who is the way, the truth and the life. And because it is His truth, He adds, “No man comes to the Father but by Me.”
And therefore the Writings for the New Church also do not allow us to use them — the Writings — to control the minds of others. It is true that while children are growing up, we teach them truths from the Writings without questioning them. But we don’t allow a child to confirm his faith. He or she must be an adult before taking that step. Time and again the Writings preach against historical faith — the notion that what was good enough for your fathers is good enough for you — and they reject all faith on authority — believing because people we admire believe. Time and again they urge the people of the church not to band together and decide what is true. We are not to make councils and decide what is true, nor ask people to believe in something because we, the leaders or older generation in the church, have seen it. “Put no faith in councils,” they say, “but in the holy Word; and go to the Lord and you will be enlightened; for He is the Word, that is, the Divine truth in the Word” (TCR 624e). And again they say, “But, my friend, go to the God of the Word, and thus to the Word itself … and you will be enlightened” (TCR 177e). The authority for the New Church is now and evermore will be the Word itself; it has no formal, written doctrine outside of it.
A person who is confirmed in the New Church is stating his or her faith in that Word — the Old and New Testaments and the Writings. He is saying that he believes they are from the Lord and are the only authority, the only ruler over his mind. We must obey civil law, of course; we must observe moral laws; but we reserve the right to decide from the Lord Himself, from His Word, their justice, or the rightness of anything on earth or in heaven. In doing so we give up a certain freedom — the freedom to espouse any idea we want, to decide for ourselves what is true; but we give it up willingly, for now we are saying that we want to be in favor, not of ideas but of what is true, and the Lord has shown us perfect truth. Many people may be tempted to disdain ideal truth. Like Pilate they might ask, “What is truth?” The Lord has answered that: “Everyone that is of the truth hears My voice.” “I am the way, the truth and the life.”
But in the last analysis we don’t accept faith in the Lord in order to reject faith in other people and in false ideas. We accept it because we know that we need living faith, faith in living truth, so that we ourselves can be changed. There is only one thing in all this world that is perfect, and that is the Lord’s Word, and when we turn to it, we are asking for that perfect, faultless help that flows through that Word from the Lord — the help we need if we are to forsake evil and love what is good. When a man or a woman stands before the Lord and joins the New Church, he or she is taking just the first step along the path of a happy and blessed life. He or she is saying, “Lord, I believe; help Thou mine unbelief.” “Lord, I know that in Your Word You are present. Guide me in all the steps that are to come.
Even when we accept Him He still gives us freedom. He shows us a perfect truth, and we can say, “I want it,” or “I don’t.” But if we choose to, then He gives us the power to find the ultimate freedom. Every angel of heaven is free to do what he or she wants, because what he or she wants is good.
This is the freedom which starts when a young man or woman declares a faith in the Word, which is the Son of God. “If the Son therefore shall make you free, you shall be free indeed.”

Jimmy DeYoung's News Update
Jimmy DeYoung's daily report on current events as they set the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.
Ultra-orthodox Jews are expanding the population of the West Bank by large numbers
Listen to Today's Program
The Jewish settler population in Judea and Samaria, the West Bank, is growing twice as fast as the rest of the population in other areas in Israel and the Ultra-Orthodox community is responsible for the major portion of the annual growth in these disputed territories.
In the areas where the Ultra-Orthodox move in to establish their young families, the annual growth rate is five to six times more than Jerusalem and Tel-Aviv's growth respectively and twice as much as the growth of many other Jewish settlements.
The Ultra-Orthodox rabbis sanctioned living in these settlements assuming that these territories would be annexed to Israel sometime in the near future.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
The expanding population of Ultra-Orthodox Jews in Judea and Samaria is in essence a page out of Bible prophecy for these religious Jews and the land of their forefathers.
Since the end of the Six Day War in June of 1967, Jews both religious and secular have been moving into the area of Judea and Samaria, the West Bank, building their homes and raising their families. These disputed territories have increased in population over the years to nearly 500,000 people in two hundred Jewish settlements.
Now, the Israeli government is reporting that the fastest growth of population in any area of Israel is this area referred to as the West Bank, but known Biblically as Judea and Samaria.
As I mentioned, this report is a page out of the prophetic passages in God's Word. The Ancient Jewish prophet Ezekiel wrote 2,500 years ago that in the Last Days God would give the land of the forefathers of the Jewish people to the Jews of today, Ezekiel 36.
Ezekiel the prophet was actually told to preach to the land that would bring forth man and animal and multiply them on the land, Ezekiel 36:11. Ezekiel 36:6-22 reveals what God would do with the land for the Jews and in verse 22 tells us that would be done for His holy namesake.

I spent many lockdown afternoons playing football with my godson Joe in the street outside his home, both of us focused on being accurate in our passes so as to avoid banging parked cars. I loved watching him become animated as we kicked the ball, and especially when I would ask him to show me his ‘epic’ skills. I was really disappointed that, as for all youths, Joe’s after-school football sessions had been suspended. So when the chance came for me to interview Charlie Hyman, CEO of Bloomsbury Football, I readily agreed and took Joe along with me.
Charlie is an inspiration for anybody about to finish formal education. Three years ago, he was sitting in Greenberry Café, local to his parents’ home, revising for his final exams at the University of Nottingham. Two fathers whose sons had received football coaching from Charlie whilst he was a student happened to enter the café and asked him what he intended to do when he finished his degree. That chat led Charlie to establish Bloomsbury Football with those two parents as founding trustees. In the beginning Charlie was a full-time coach whilst running the organisation. His main ambition was to bring children of all backgrounds together to create a club that would be inclusive.
Today, Bloomsbury Football engages 3,000 young people every week between the ages of two and sixteen, including thirty-five teams competing in local junior football leagues. There is a pool of around thirty coaches who visit primary and secondary schools, community centres and housing estates to provide football training sessions. Bloomsbury also run three football camps in London, available to children on holiday weekdays. At the Academy, keen young footballers can develop their play with training available three or four times a week.
Six months ago, Charlie launched a programme for girls-only teams, although there has always been the option for boys and girls to play together. “Usually when children play football,” Charlie explained, “they mostly interact with their school mates and that is not always diverse, especially if they attend a fee-paying or religious school. I hope to encourage a child to grow alongside somebody who may have a completely different background. Once young people understand differences, that’s the first step towards empathy.”
Charlie is very much invested in nurturing his football coaches, some of whom are sixth-formers. When I asked him what makes a good coach, he chuckled: “To make the coach’s role not need to exist, although it will always exist.” He told me how kids look up to their coach, sometimes as if they are celebrities, and so these role models have the chance to show children “how to take ownership over themselves”. For instance, through the example of being consistently punctual and always arriving to a session with the correct equipment, the children can learn this behaviour from their coaches. Self-reflection is another requisite in Charlie’s opinion. “I want the coaches to review each and every session and ask themselves what did and didn’t work and where they need to develop.”
Needless to say, Charlie has always loved football, and it turned out that he and my godson support the same team. Charlie remembers playing football in Primrose Hill at the end of a school day and feeling blessed that the park was his ‘garden’. One of the main challenges that he has with Bloomsbury Football is finding spaces to hire, because most sports halls, recreation centres and park pitches are fully booked, sometimes years in advance.
In order to make sure that children are not priced out from his foundation, Charlie has a sliding scale of prices based on what parents can afford. “No child is turned away because of their financial background,” he explains. Presently he is organising Bloomsbury staff to raise £30,000 so that they can offer bursary places across the programmes. Charlie has set himself the target of running five kilometres every day for fifty days: “That’s about the length of Regent’s Park’s Outer Circle.”
Charlie’s parents think that he’s a workaholic, but the truth is that he really loves his job, even the administration aspect of it all. “The real reward is to see the joy the children get from having proper football training and to know that the coaches are also getting a real opportunity.” At some point during the interview, my godson shyly asked Charlie which football players he admires, and they chatted as fans do. Finally, I asked Charlie what was the biggest lesson he’d learned in his twenty-five years, and he replied, “True fulfilment comes from helping others.”

JOURNAL FROM ROME 1.1
At the beginning of October, Br. Scottston Brentwood was transferred to the Mercedarian student community in Rome for further ecclesiastical studies. Br. Scottston agreed to send us a periodic journal to help keep us in close communion with him. To date, Br. Scottston has sent four installments. We shall post the first four together and then update the installments as they arrive. Please keep Br. Scottston in your prayers and enjoy his journal.
INSTALLMENT #1
I thought I would let everyone know all the happenings here in Rome. I’ve only been here for a week, but MUCH has happened! I have to admit, it is truly a wonderful experience, and I have to thank all the brothers/priests here in Italy for all the kindness they have shown toward me. Even with the present language barrier, we are having a great time with many laughs and a truly remarkable, communitarian life.
Thus, here is a summary of many of the things I’ve done this last week. By no means is it comprehensive, but it does give you a flavor of the fun I have had.
I arrived early Saturday morning at the Da Vinci Airport in Rome. I was overwhelmed not so much with being in the city of Rome itself as much as the shear number of people there! So many people, and the tragedy was that everyone was headed to the same location – baggage claim. As sad as it might sound, I literally watched my bags go by at least twice as I was unable to get close enough to them to pull them off the carousel. I met the other brothers who picked me up, and we went to what would be my home for the next few years.
I spent the next couple of days doing various things. I went from unpacking to liturgical functions to processions etc. As I did not speak the native language (and few if anyone here shares my language) I can assure you it was rather interesting trying to figure out what exactly I was suppose to be doing. In the end, it all worked out, that is, until they asked me to lead the rosary in Italian.
On Sunday I went with one of the other brothers – Bro. Petrus – to downtown Rome. We visited the Vatican (i.e. St. Peters) and stopped for a gelato at a nearby shop. On our way home we visited the “Holy Stairs” and St. John Lateran.
On Tuesday I went with Fr. Stefano to register at one of the Language Institutes. Afterward we walked to the Gregorian University where he teaches via the Trevi Fountain before returning home for ponzo. After the meal we headed out for the sacred and highly coveted Metrobus Card that will allow me to take the Metro without the hassle of purchasing a ticket with every trip.
On Thursday I decided to take in some sights while at the same time taking the opportunity to travel to my new school alone to see if I could remember how to get there. I found it with no difficulties. I traveled back toward the Trevi Fountain and continued on to the more ancient parts (i.e. the area around the Monument to Victor Emanuele) I took some photos, relished in the past grandeur of the Roman Empire, and headed back home.
Friday came, and I thought it wise to find a location for confession in English. Fr. Ricci suggested I go to St. Mary Major, so I asked Bro. Petrus which stop on the Metro would be the closest. He told me the Termini stop is best, and when I looked at a map, St. Mary Major was between Termini and Victor Emanuele stops. I opted for the Termini stop – major mistake. The shear number of people there is enough to detract my attention, and when I emerged from the station I was completely lost. Note to self – a map alone is useless without a compass. I asked some Sisters for directions and easily found the Basilica. The experience of the Basilica was different – very pleasant. I found the beauty of the Basilica to be a true reflection of the beauty of God’s creation. I think of all the places I have been in Rome, St. Mary Major was my favorite.
To return home I opted for the other Metro stop – Victor Emanuele. Note to self – take this stop if you are going to St. Mary Major: its on the same street, and there are no people there.
Thus, I finished my first week in Italy.

So I had to spend some time preparing for my exam to move to the next level in my study of Italian, so I was unable to give a written version of week 2 here in Italy. SO, here is weeks 2 and 3 all at once. Most likely you will not find it as interesting as the first week, but it is what it is right?
I began my Italian classes on Monday, October 12. I have class five days a week for three hours each day. As of now, the classes are in the afternoon, so I have the mornings to study. The class is small which helps facilitate the “learning process,” and the teacher is a nice guy – Italian, but he knows some English which helps. The other students are American. As I actually have to do homework (it is checked every day and there are MANY exercises to complete), the general rule for me is thus – every morning is occupied with books, paper, pens, and DICTIONARIES.
I had my first run-in with a “quasi-gypsy” the following Tuesday. As I was at the Spanish Steps, this guy approaches and (in less than 30 seconds) ties this string bracelet around my wrist. He then asks me for 5 euros! I told him I had nothing, he of course did not believe me as I am an American, and I actually demonstrated that my pockets were empty and the sound he was hearing was my KEYS! Fortunately I do not carry money with me, so if they ask for it, I cannot give that which I do not possess myself. Ultimately he came to the obvious realization that I was not going to give him anything (as I had nothing to give), so he told me to accept it as a gift, “welcome to Italy” he said to me, and walked away. Note to anyone walking in Rome – keep your hands in your pockets so as to prevent the gypsies from putting something in them and wanting money for something you neither wanted nor asked for.
On Thursday I headed to the more ancient parts of the city. I saw the Coliseum and the Arch of Constantine, took some photos, and found my way home via another route. The purpose of this exercise is so that I become more familiar with the city, and you never know – I might find some interesting places in my travels.
The following day I wanted to see if there were any bookstores close to my school, and as I arrived early (the METRO is sometimes fast, sometimes slow, and sometimes on strike…so you never know what to expect), I went looking. I stopped to ask a man for directions, asked him if he spoke English (I asked in Italian), he told me (in Italian) that he neither spoke nor understood English, so I proceeded to put my Italian courses to work and asked for directions to a bookstore with books in English (in Italian). His response (in ENGLISH) was, “go two blocks down the street, take a left, and it will be right there.” Hmmmmm…. As a side note, books in English are easy to find, but the cost is more than double the price of the same book in Italian.
Thus I finished my second week in Italy.
I went on Saturday (October 17) downtown to find another bookstore…something larger maybe? I found one online close to St. Mary Major, so I figured I could head out for a weekly confession, visit the bookstore which was three blocks away, and head home by the METRO which is a block away from the bookstore. It was raining, so I bought an umbrella from the perpetual venders walking around outside the tourist places (if you speak in Italian you get things at a cheaper rate), confessed, and as I exited the church was overwhelmed by a Communist Party demonstration which was literally marching around St. Mary Major! Personally, I think I would have chosen a more political venue for a political demonstration, but whatever. I found the bookstore with no difficulty and it was ENORMOUS – 4 floors of books of every kind (some even in English…but at a “normal” price).
Saturday night was spent in front of the all-powerful plasma TV…literally transfixed to the glowing edifice as the Genoa / Inter game was screening. I was supporting Inter, and I was in luck as they won. I somehow surprised the Italians with my knowledge of the different teams, their uniform colors, and the cities they are from. Every American knows these things…right?
On Sunday I spent some time with the youth of our parish – Bro. Sergio coordinates a soccer game every week, and the youth wanted to demonstrate to me their soccer skills. To my surprise, even the younger ones were really, really good.
That evening, Bro. Petrus brought wood into the refectory and started a fire in the fireplace there. I jokingly asked Fr. Stefano if he was going to cook over the fire, and to my surprise, he said yes! I had never seen steak prepared using a fireplace before, but it was tasty so I cannot complain. Somehow thoughts of Fr. Matthew Phelan grilling in the refectory fireplace of the Monastery made me laugh. All I can say is, “do not try this at home, we are professionals.”
Monday = back to class and the regular routine. Nothing really new there, but on Thursday I had to take a test to see if I was ready to move onto the next level at the language institute. I was rather worried about it during our review – I did not remember many things, but when I took the exam, I was the first one to finish. Ultimately I did very well, and begin the next level on Monday morning.
End of week three.
Saturday, October 24 – We had our first formation class in the morning…in Italian of course. I understood what was being said, took some notes, but did not really offer much input; I did afterwards when I was alone with Fr. Ricci. After the sacred pranzo, the students and Fr. Ricci went to Fr.’s hometown to visit his sister. Next we went up the mountains that surround the town – VERY nice, but different than the mountains I am use to in Virginia. Finally, we headed to Nemi to see the house/community there. The city is beautiful, and the house is located next to Lake Nemi. We saw the renovations that are taking place there – MANY – and headed back home. On a side note, I saw my first Roman sunset…over Lake Nemi.
On Sunday, Fr. Provincial returned home. We had a very nice conversation (in Italian of course), and he was happy that I was progressing with the language. Though I made some grammatical mistakes, he at least understood what I was trying to say. That night many of the various superiors arrived as a gathering of the Italian superiors was going to begin on Monday and carry on through the week; some of them I had already met as they had been here for the various Secretariat meetings the previous week.
Monday proved to be an interesting day. I was under the impression class was to begin at 9:30am with a new instructor, but it was changed to 10:00am…and I thus arrived EARLY. I thought I would walk around the general vicinity to see what was new and exciting. I stumbled into a church that was near by that I had not visited yet – St. Andrea d. Fratte. Very nice. I did notice that even though Mass was going on, a confessional was available. As I did not have time to hit up St. Mary Major for confession during the weekend, I thought I would ask the priest if he spoke English. It turns out that he, in fact, did NOT (big surprise)…but he said that “Jesus understands all languages”…and he wanted to continue the confession with me attempting it in Italian. Ultimately (as I did not know the names of any sins in Italian) I described the sins, and the priest provided me with the Italian name for them. Confession done – my first in Italian – I went to school and followed the normal routine.
On Wednesday Bro. Petrus and I went to the Post Office to work on the documentation for the Promesso Soggorno. The office only has one person to handle everyone who is seeking this…and though the office opened at 8:30am, he did not arrive until 9:15am. LONG day, and there is still more that needs to be done to obtain this “important” document. Needless to say, I was late for class, but no worries. Bro. Petrus and I walked from the Vatican (where the Post Office is) to my school – the trip was very short and was equal in time to the public transportation fiasco. I was able to see the Castle Sant Angelo…and a few other things before I had a couple more hours of Italian.
Thursday was the final day for the gathering of superiors, and when I was returning home from school, I was greeted by Fr. General who welcomed me home from the balcony over the main entrance. In fact, he said he was “unhappy” with me because I did not write to him as soon as I had arrived in Italy, but I rectified the situation by mentioning that I thought he was OUTSIDE Italy at the time. I had a quick bite to eat – alone as everyone had literally just finished – but while I ate Fr. Nunzio spoke with me about the vocations situation of the Order within Italy. Once I finished, I sat and spoke with Fr. General. At our last meeting in Cleveland we spoke in English as I did not know Italian. This time, however, we used Italian. As we were speaking, Fr. Provincial joined us, and the two of them asked me many things about America and my thoughts on various topics.
On Friday my former teacher showed me the location of an international bookstore…not far from the large one I already knew of. EVERY language you could think of was present, but the English section was the largest…and the books were actually priced at a reasonable price.
Thus ended my fourth week…and my first month.
Editor’s note: In installment #4 we see, as Brother Scottston stated himself in the message that accompanied the journal, the “more spiritual side came out.”
It feels as though an eternity has passed since our last conversation… Perhaps it was my fault – I was too preoccupied dwelling on my own thoughts to perceive the fact you were present. I realize that no level of apology would be sufficient to account fully for my unremitting failures…a reality that I have reluctantly come to accept.
Why should today be any different?
I can see you…standing there…saying to me, “Why such baffled disposition? ‘Did you miss me?’ It is a normal question – I missed you. But what do I get back? Not an ounce of excitement, not a whisper of a thrill.” My only response would invariably be silence. It always is.
I see you further saying to me, “Scott at a loss for words? The man from whose lips fall ‘rapture’ and ‘fury’ and ‘enthrallment’ …all those admonitions about being ‘deliberately happy,’ … all the dispiriting advice you dispense in round, pear-shaped tones…?”
…again…the customary downcast sigh.
And yet the faint, sad uncertain smile, so often there, now seems to glimmer from its obscurity, and linger briefly on my lips. It could be a fool’s hope of that which is to be…or merely the delusion of a simple boy…who finds himself coming to the realization that all truly IS well.
My daily transformation takes place…my gradual coming to better understand you as I mature day by day into the person I was always meant to be. But you already knew that. I attempt to surprise you…even though I know that your knowledge of me is so superior to my expectations that there is nothing that would (or could) surprise you.
…yet you still pretend to be surprised to placate my child-like desire to please you. What impresses me most is that – though I never surprise you, you always respond in a way that ultimately elevates me.
How could you who know me so well…not feel disappointed by the knowledge that I do not recapitulate that same reciprocal knowledge of you? Is this merely further evidence of not only my failure to truly get to know you from the beginning, but also evidence of my focus on myself at the detriment of knowing you?
The possibilities are endless.
I rest, however, in the knowledge that ultimately it does not matter – all is made perfect in time…or that is the hope at least. Until then, I will rest in my complacency…knowing (and trusting) in that which is…and that which will be.
Until then I remain,

I had a friend ask me the other day where he could get one of those green ‘glow-in-the-dark’ cats he had read about. He wanted one for his girlfriend’s birthday. “Can I get one that starts blinking when it’s hungry, and what other colors were available?” His sense of humor is almost as dry as mine, so I’m still not sure whether or not he was baiting me. Just in case, I told him that I thought that he should go to his nearest chain pet store to pre-order one, but I didn’t think the blinking version would be out until just before Christmas.
Then he wanted to know how soon it would be before the Army created genetically enhanced super-soldiers or chimps could be modified to drive cars. I told him that the Army would probably opt for ‘Killer Robots’ to avoid the ethical hassles associated with playing with the human genome. As to chimps driving cars – they already do (see Jared Diamond’s excellent book, The Third Chimpanzee for why humans are actually one of the three native species of chimps on Earth).
The best way to understand the challenges of genetic modification (aka gene therapy) is to embrace the complexity of our genome. The execution of good aroma therapy, for instance, requires the ability to put odd smelling stuff in wax and light a candle. Now I’m sure there’s a lot more to this than meets the eye, but it is simply not very difficult to get some sort of beneficial, soothing effect, with technology that was available thousands of years ago.
Compare gene therapy. Imagine that you’ve got this computer program, 3.2 billion code words long, and you really don’t know what most of it does. Now imagine that this program operates by exposing portions of its code to its environment, using what amounts to a protein mask. Some parts are running, others aren’t, based on the parts that are covered up by this mask. Different parts of this mask are permanently configured in different cells, such as the parts that are always exposed in a liver cell but concealed in a bone cell, and other parts of this mask open and close depending on enumerable environmental factors, such as ion concentrations and the presence or absence of thousands of different molecules. So bits and pieces of this mask are winking on and off all the time, in every cell in our body. And that’s just the main code. Beyond this code, there are all sorts of micro-codes scattered through a cell’s cytoplasm that tells the cell how its monstrously complex genetic code is to be interpreted. Also consider that our 3.2 billion code genome, if stretched out as a single molecule of DNA, would be about six feet long. Yet it is so thin and coiled so tightly that it fits inside of a cell’s tiny nucleus. If you don’t think this system is absolutely remarkable, then you just haven’t been paying attention.
So now you set up to program this code nightmare. You have some piece of code you want to run, say, to make your hair green or your skin transparent (creepy!). If this were a computer program, you would just find the appropriate place to add the subroutine, QED. But with the genome, you have two problems. First, you don’t really know where to put it because you don’t really know how the program works. The second problem is that you can’t really control exactly where it goes. This second issue is the truly bad news. Regardless of how the code is delivered (sometimes even shot into a nucleus), whether or not it will ‘take’ depends on where it actually combines with the genome, which is to a large extent random.
There are, after all, only four letters to our wonderful genetic alphabet, and only short sequences can be used to match some location in the genome. So if your matching code is, say, 6 letters long, then the number of places that it might match in the genome is 3.2 billion divided by 4 to the 6th power, or about 800,000 different locations. Now add the fact that the availability of many of these locations winks on and off depending on the environment. Yikes.
Yet even in spite of this staggering complexity, progress is definitely being made, and each new step overcomes monumental odds. But as it stands now, it would be easier to build a shopping mall on the moon than confront some of the technical challenges waiting inside each and every one of our tiny cells. So the next time you get down on yourself for missing a three foot putt or can’t remember where you left your car keys, just keep in mind that you’re running some of the most complex software imaginable. There’s bound to be a few bugs.

Are You Destroying Your Motivation?
In traditional economics, motivation is simple: People want stuff. The amount of stuff they want is unlimited, therefore if you want people to do something you give them more stuff, and they will do it for you. Threaten to take away stuff, and they will avoid doing whatever would cause their stuff to be taken away.
The emerging field of behavioral economics takes a more holistic (and realistic) understanding of motivation: Sometimes people don’t want stuff. Sometimes people do things that don’t help them get more stuff. And there are some things you can’t convince people to do no matter how much stuff you give them.
This is critically important to the sudden popularity of gamification. Gamification is a way of creating incentives. But many people have attempted to create incentives based on the assumption that the only two motivators are pain and gain. This approach seems to assume that human beings operate like machines: give us a directive and reasons to follow the directive, and we will.
This thinking is what caused behaviorists to discover the overjustification effect, which is dangerous can be permanently damaging. Dubner and Levitt give a perfect example in Freakonomics of an Israeli day care facility that wanted to discourage parents from arriving late to pick up their children and started charging for late pick-up. The result was that more parents arrived late. The fee for late pick-up had supplanted an intrinsic motivation (guilt over inconveniencing the day-care workers) with an extrinsic motivation (a small fee to compensate for that inconvenience). What’s more, when the fee was subsequently removed, the damage had been done: parents continued to see the late pick-up as a service, but now it was a service they were getting for free.
Businesses often take a similar simple-economics approach to dealing with their own people. Incentivize this, disincentivize that, counter-incentivize something that you’re making more difficult. Much of the bulk and complexity of large organizations can be traced back to complicated incentives and metrics.
So before you do anything, remove the obstacles.
It’s impossible to know whether sufficient intrinsic motivations are there if you’ve piled up a mountain of paperwork in front of them. Sometimes the barriers exist outside your organization, such as the ability to market a new service. If you want a particular activity to occur more often within your organization, start by identifying and removing the obstacles, and then step back. Adding incentives is dangerous and difficult to reverse, and can result in unexpected and undesirable behaviors. If you create a space for something to happen, and your people are aware that space exists, wait and see what comes to fill in that space.

This Is More Important Than Success
We have been told not to let our failures get us down, and many people believe this means we should put our failures behind us as quickly as possible and keep moving. We spend hours, days, months, examining successes and trying to emulate them and turn them into strategies.
But failing well is more important than success. Success is just success, and there’s not much more you can do; but failure is opportunity, and it will slip away if you don’t seize it.
When an effort has the result I intend, it can be for any combination of reasons, both within and beyond my control. But when I don’t get the result I’m looking for, it’s important for me to find out what I can about why I didn’t succeed, look for the variables I could have influenced, and at the very least try something different next time. If I move too quickly past my failures, I’m likely to repeat them; if I move too quickly past my successes, at worst I may forget to celebrate them. (Celebrating successes is important too–but we’ll get to that later.)
As you might have heard, the road to success is paved with failures. If you plan to succeed on a regular basis, you’ll need to learn how to pave.
Ignoring the importance of failing well doesn’t just mean repeating your mistakes. It also has an impact on your organization’s culture. Your employees tend to do less work at or above their level of competence for fear of doing it incorrectly, which means that higher-level employees and managers are left doing lower-level work. So much for “high-performance culture.”
Glossing over failures at the organization level also leads to poor communication at the individual level. If I’m trying to make the failures of my business disappear, should I really be surprised when an employee makes an enormous miscalculation and doesn’t tell me about it until the last minute? The more failure is accepted and dealt with properly, the less stigma will be attached to it and the easier it will become to handle.
It should come as no surprise that this applies to your life as well as your business. Anticipate failure and learn how to fail well, and it will lead you to a richer, wiser life.

Plant-based Athletic Inspiration: Josh LaJaunie
by Garth Davis, MD on May 19, 2015
Josh LaJaunie is an incredible individual. His story is truly inspiring. Read and enjoy his guest post.
I’m Josh LaJaunie. I’m the big guy in the left picture.
I am from Thibodaux, Louisiana. I am a former football lineman. And I identified most with the big, whiskey-drinking, animal-eating (didn’t matter, wasn’t very picky), former football player with stories of how athletic I used to be before I got hurt. And being that guy got me 200lbs overweight and miserable.
There is no shortage of that person here. I was kind of in that big guy club. The guys who couldn’t fit in booths. The guys who need seatbelt extensions and specially made clothing. That club was my identity. Even as I began to lose weight eventually, my goal was always “playing weight” (290-300lbs). I held onto the “fact” that I was destined to be a big man. I almost felt I’d be betraying something or someone if I left.
Eventually, some life circumstances began to change; I found a girlfriend, although it feels kinda silly to call my wife that now. And at the age of 29, in 2007, she encouraged me to go back to school as a freshman at Nicholls State University.
By the spring of 2011 I was thinking like an educated pragmatist for the first time in my life, and preparing for my senior year. Not only was my pending degree exciting for me, but in the year previous my beloved New Orleans Saints won SB44. I sort of made a case study out of the that epic win (WHODAT!!). I wanted know how the hell Coach and Mr Loomis were able to have success in a town that has epitomized the opposite over the long term in many ways, especially when considering NFL success. So, I read Coach’s book.
Among his beautifully timed “f” bombs were some profound ideas that struck me as relatable to my own world. But one I found particularly useful and paradigm-decaying was when he addressed all the “that’s just the way it is here” talk he encountered. He defied it at every turn. Unwaveringly. He even imported people from outside, like Joe Vitt for example, who bristled at the idea of complacency as bad as Coach did. And ultimately, they changed a culture. A culture who’s results were appalling on many levels. Now we are used to winning.
Reading that book planted a seed. But that seed didn’t germinate until my friend Jeff called and invited me to join the gym with him in February of 2011 as I started my final full semester. With that invite, Jeff changed my life. I would wind up never looking back.
Durning my presentation-heavy final semester I had gotten compliments on my weight loss as well as my presentations. That felt pretty cool. By graduation in December I had lost 60lbs. and was feeling like a proud graduate. It was around this time that my friend Jeff and I decided to run the Crescent City Classic 10k in New Orleans that following April. Jeff would often be able to walk alongside me as I “ran.” Although I had lost weight, at 340ish lbs, I was still quite heavy for a runner. We got up to 4 miles in training. I figured I would have to walk some on raceday, and I did, a lot. I was happy to have finished, but bummed that it took me 1:43:00. I was hoping for 1:30:00.
But that failure sparked me. I knew how I was still eating in my heart of hearts. So, I really had no right to be upset for underachieving; I hadn’t done what it takes. I was still eating like shit, drinking like a fish, and smoking cigarettes when I wanted to because I was losing weight regardless. But as the weight loss slowed, I reevaluated what I was doing.
That race eventually lead me to reading “Born to Run,” which introduced me to Scott Jurek, whose story lead me to plants and running. So, I found myself 100lbs lighter (but still 100lbs overweight) reinventing an already somewhat reinvented self. I was morphing into an aspiring runner, rather than being a reluctant runner looking for weight loss.
As I began to hone my aspirations, I found that a plant based diet was used by some of the baddest runners out there. Scott Jurek is not alone, which was a surprise to me; Rich Roll, and Brendan Brazier were the next two plant based badasses I learned about. This, coupled with watching Forks Over Knives for the first time, really cemented my new views on food. I became a 100% plant based, not ex fat guy, but athlete. I decided “I’m going be that. An athlete.”
Today I identify with being a runner, a plant based runner. Yes, I have lost 200 lbs., but I think about that so much less now that it’s been done. It’s no longer the moment I’m in. I think about PR’s these days a lot, but I also want to be a Pied Piper, if you will, for the plants, mindset, and activity that got me to where I am today, and where I know so many would like to be.
In my own family, for example, my wife and I found ourselves always fielding questions that ultimately just ask “how?” So, we invited everyone over and started a “boot camp” at our home. We workout (my wife tries to kill us, I mean) on Tuesday and Thursday every week. We bond, laugh, hurt, piss-moan, and complain, but we get it done.
This started as just family but has grown as people have discovered that there’s a workout at Josh’s every Tuesday and Thursday. So now I have running buddies, friends, friends of friends, and family all working out with us. It’s so cool! But if you know me, I’m a “fix the damn food!” guy. I guess it because I’ve come so far that I take it so seriously, but I do. So, beside breaking a sweat with folks, I try to be consistent example of the plant based lifestyle in action. Not unlike a lighthouse on a rocky shore.
In the end, I’m just a guy who wanted something bad enough to change, finally.
So if you’re reading this, and you identify with the old me more than the new me, I get it. Just know I’ll be here when you’re ready, but you’re giving me a helluva head start.

Resurrection of the Daleks (Paperback)
Author: Eric Saward
Publisher: BBC Books
RRP: UK £7.99, US $10.99, Cdn $16.99

The TARDIS is ensnared in a time corridor, catapulting it into derelict docklands on 20th-century Earth. The Doctor and his companions, Tegan and Turlough, stumble on a warehouse harbouring fugitives from the future at the far end of the corridor – and are soon under attack from a Dalek assault force. The Doctor’s oldest enemies have set in motion an intricate and sinister plot to resurrect their race from the ashes of an interstellar war. For the Daleks’ plans to succeed, they must set free their creator, Davros, from a galactic prison – and force the Doctor to help them achieve total control over time and space. But the embittered Davros has ideas of his own…
It’s taken a while (37 years, in fact), but at last there’s a Target novelisation of Resurrection of the Daleks! Back in the 1980s, the original Target Books imprint was unable to reach an agreement with writer / script editor Eric Saward and Dalek originator Terry Nation to allow Saward (or any other writer) to adapt his scripts for the 1984 Fifth Doctor serial. Virgin Books, the imprint that succeeded Target, tried again in the early 1990s, Saward started work and the novelisation was actually announced, but again the project stalled. Now the paperback edition of the completed 2019 book is being published in the resurrected Target imprint… but was it worth the wait?
This novelisation is not what I had been expecting. It’s not the number of differences between the book and the original serial that causes me to raise my eyebrows. After all, other long-delayed Doctor Who adaptations that have been completed in recent years, based on scripts by Douglas Adams, have contained large amounts of new material, reinstated from earlier versions of scripts and storylines. No, it’s the nature of the changes that surprises me.
Whereas the screen version of Resurrection was almost unremittingly grim, the novelisation often adopts a comical tone. Perhaps I should have expected this. Saward’s 1986 novelisations of The Twin Dilemma and Slipback contain several Adams-style digressions into light-hearted background information. So does this book, which holds forth on such subjects as how the prison station got its name (the Vipod Mor, a designation accidentally reused from Slipback) and an unlikely mix-up between a producer of preserves and a manufacturer of missiles.
On other occasions, the novelist deliberately undermines the drama of a situation he has created by taking a turn for the bathetic. For instance, after significantly raising the stakes during the initial TARDIS scene, placing the ship and its crew in danger of destruction (rather than being merely off course and out of control, as they were on screen), Saward punctures the tension with the understatement, “The greatest Time Lord of them all was having a really bad day.” Exciting lines that the writer had scripted for Davros are sabotaged by having Commander Gustav Lytton ponder that the villain talks too much and by describing the Dalek creator as squawking “like Florence Foster Jenkins aiming for a high C”.
The Daleks themselves come in for similar stick. Lytton finds the species as a whole to be “noisy, aggressive and highly repetitive,” and regards the Supreme Dalek as downright odd. The latter’s dialogue is often “oozed” or “purred”, he makes noises similar to burps and grunts – and he even attempts a joke! Terry Nation would not have approved. (Some readers may also be sceptical about Daleks muttering or contemplating insubordination, but there are precedents for both of these in the television show.)
I dare say that much of this satire arises from Saward’s feelings about writing for the Daleks and his dissatisfaction with his own scripts. Both the writer and the critics have pointed out the convoluted nature of the serial’s plot, in which too many ideas jostle for attention and not all of them are developed as fully as they might have been. However, I don’t think taking the mickey out of the source material is the solution. It’s an approach that was successful with The Twin Dilemma and Slipback, because the broadcast versions already contained a lot of humour, but a story like this (in common with the similarly convoluted Evil of the Daleks, to which Resurrection owes much of its inspiration) needs to be told straight. Poke fun at it, and the whole thing could fall apart.
Fortunately, Saward takes other aspects more seriously. He explores the inner thoughts of his characters, which is particularly effective in the case of the ruthless Lytton, the conflicted Sergeant Raymond Arthur Stien and the ill-fated homeless smoker at the beginning of the adventure, who is given the name Mr Jones. The writer clearly enjoys describing the rain-soaked streets of Shad Thames, where the warehouse entrance to the Daleks’ time corridor is located. He makes the most of all the grisly deaths that take place in this tale, by not only describing them when they occur but also foretelling many of them beforehand, with phrases like, “Little did they know it would be the last time they would hear him speak those words.”
We are made aware of the Daleks’ involvement at an earlier point than in the television serial, via Lytton’s musings and the Doctor’s deductive reasoning. The Time Lord concludes that the time corridor must be the work of the demented pepper pots while the TARDIS is still ensnared in the temporal phenomenon. However, once the time travellers arrive in 1984 London, this realisation is all but forgotten, and the Doctor’s exploration of the warehouse reverts to the less urgent investigation that it was on screen.
The novelist resolves some but not all of his original story’s implausibilities, including the inconsistent nature of the Daleks’ human duplicates and Davros’s awareness that the Doctor is a Time Lord. The time corridor is given a computerised intelligence, allowing it to defend itself, and its London entrance is effectively disguised in a manner similar to the TARDIS’s chameleon circuit.
However, when it comes to explaining the science behind such marvels, it would have been better if he hadn’t tried. We are informed that the operation of the Doctor’s craft involves “time bubbles” suspended in “stabilising dampers.” When these bubbles burst, the TARDIS risks becoming trapped “in a crack in time, causing the Doctor, and his two friends, to relive the same single moment over and over again.” Being caught in such a temporal loop is, nonsensically, a greater threat to the Time Lord, whose regenerative powers would condemn him to “a permanent state of living hell.” The source of the time corridor, we are told, is a beam of light projected from the Dalek ship. This cuts through space until, at a prearranged point, gravity (somehow) affects it, forcing the light “to spiral and twist its way through the cracks and fissures in the time-space continuum”, until pressure transmogrifies it “into the swirling mass of a time corridor.” Saward himself seems to realise that this kind of description is not where his strengths lie, and so later claims that to comprehend how the time corridor works “would require a double-first in mathematics plus the help of a dozen Albert Einsteins and several Stephen Hawkings on the side just to interpret the first five lines of the principle.”
The author also throws in references to other Doctor Who adventures that he wrote or edited. Humans are referred to as Tellurians, as they are in several Robert Holmes scripts. They enjoy drinking Voxnic, a potent alcoholic beverage previously knocked back in Slipback and the novelisation of The Twin Dilemma. Speelsnapes (Revelation of the Daleks, The Trial of a Time Lord) are mentioned and time spillage (The Mark of the Rani, Slipback) occurs. Most frequent, however, are the allusions to the Terileptils, reptilian beings introduced in The Visitation, and tinclavic, a malleable metal that they are said to mine. I know Saward created them, but there are other species and substances in the Whoniverse! Here tinclavic is used in the construction of devices operated by Time Lords, Daleks and Tellurians alike, despite the fact that, according to the Doctor in The Awakening, the Terileptils mine the stuff for the more or less exclusive use of the inhabitants of the planet Hakol. (That’s in the star system Rifter, you know.)
As a result of all the additions, we are two-fifths of the way through the book before we reach the end of the material from Part One of the four-part serial. Then, as with his approach to scientific explanations, the novelist seems to change his mind mid-narrative. From this point on, he is more economical with his embellishments to the original plot – apart from a lengthy tour of the TARDIS interior and a bemusing coda. Moreover, several key developments, such as the fate of Colonel Archer, and the arrival and ‘recruitment’ of Davros’s helper Kiston, are conveyed only in summary. Did Saward get bored? Was he struggling to meet the deadline? Given the duration of recent Adams and movie adaptations published by BBC Books, I doubt he was in danger of breaching the upper word limit.
The complete text is presented in this 192-page paperback edition, though the type size is very small.
For me, the novelisation of Resurrection of the Daleks is far from successful. Sure, it has its good points, but for every instance of admirable prose, there’s a passage that has me wondering, “What was Saward thinking?” The author’s sardonic tone works better in his next book, based on the blackly comical Revelation of the Daleks, whose paperback edition joins the Target library at the same time as this one.

The Seventh-day Adventist Health Message
The relationship of one’s religion and healthful living traces back to the Levitical Laws on health and hygiene given to the ancient Israelites while in the wilderness of their Exodus experience. The purpose certainly included the hygiene principles necessary to prevent and combat communicable diseases made possible by such gathering of people who lived and traveled together in the desert environment. Issues of sanitation were addressed. Principles of healthful living were emphasized
in order to keep the desert travelers robust in body, mind, and soul. Later, fasting appears as a ready remedy for those who sought special powers or healing, for those seeking discernments, or signs of repentance.
Later the New Testament drew attention to matters of temperance or self control, here again emphasizing the importance of making decisions that would give the believer an advantage in the development of his body, mind, and soul. The believer who practiced self control would have more discernment, be able to endure hardships, and be in better position to bring under control totally, the body, mind and soul.
Such teachings had been lost over the centuries. By the 19th century mankind came to a new understanding of the relationship of health and hygiene and the overall health of the population. The second half of the 19th century saw dramatic increases in the awareness of sanitation and cleanliness, how foods affected health, the uses of water, air, and exercise, in the prevention and treatment of disease. Various hydrotherapies were introduced. The consumption of health foods e.g. graham crackers, the introduction of dry cereals, and proper uses of fruits and vegetables were highlighted. For mental and emotional health, sanitariums came into being which addressed the aforementioned health principles and added the care of gardens and of working outdoors, in an attempt to combat the increase of stress and nervous disorders found in an ever increasing industrial society.
During this time some Adventist church leaders and health professionals assessed the exploding interest in health and hygiene and carefully gleaned principles that were of enduring nature. By combining the Biblical principles found in the Levitical Laws, the emphasis on self-control, with the emerging health and hygiene principles of the 19th century, the Seventh-day Adventist Church developed a unique teaching for the prevention and treatment of disease, that has stood the test of time.
Seventh-day Adventists saw the body, mind and soul as organs that responded favorably to fresh air, sanitary and hygienic principles. Further, they saw a balance between work and conditioning exercise. A special emphasis had been placed on self control issues such as abstaining from injurious tobacco practices, alcohol, the avoidance of patent remedies of the day in favor of natural remedies, the increased care for hygiene and sanitation, and a strong emphasis on plain and simply prepared foods, all of which came to fuller appreciation in the later 20th century.
The last quarter of the 20th century has witnessed the introduction of health principles for reducing fat and adding high fiber to the diet leading to a light or moderate use of meat and dairy products as preferable. This very teaching is basic to the Adventist teaching of abstaining from flesh food, the greater daily use of fruits and vegetables, and light to moderate use of dairy products, which in the nutrition world would be advocacy for a Lacto – ovo- vegetarian diet.
The church’s 150 years of denouncing smoking is now supported in the scientific understanding of health problems associated with tobacco. While alcohol is still widely consumed, its deleterious effects are well known in the scientific community. The identification of natural remediesand reduced patent remedies that did more harm than good, were identified by the Seventh-day Adventist health conscience practitioners many years before science support the theory. The Seventh-day Adventist mission populations in third world countries are known for their sanitation and hygienic practices, earning the name of “the clean people”.
Today Americans sit down to breakfast on dry cereals and various meatless frozen or canned entrees developed directly from grain and soy sources, thus bypassing the need for eating flesh foods. These foods were first developed in Adventist healthcare institutions and food factories.
Health conscious people of today and those entering the new millennium are demanding a greater understanding of the health and hygienic principles, many of which were either first taught by Seventh-day Adventists or gleaned from the great variety of teachings that have emerged from the past two centuries.
Even in the United States Dietary Guidelines 2005, greater use of whole grains, soybeans, and other legumes are recommended for protein, and the greatest emphasis is placed on plant based foods. In addition, exercise is recommended side by side with proper nutrition. The uniqueness of the Seventh-day Adventist health principles is they were far ahead of their times.

Philosophy is one of the most captivating and intellectually stimulating academic disciplines there is. After graduation, though, there will be bills to be paid. And those bills can’t be paid with knowledge and insight alone. The question becomes, then: what careers in philosophy are available out there in the working world? Of course, the answer to that question comes with a whole host of other concerns, including how much these positions pay and what degree requirements are needed for philosophical roles.
In this article, we’ll explore some of the most common jobs in philosophy in order to provide information for those interested in pursuing a degree in philosophy. We’ll also discuss the skills philosophy students gain through their academic study and how these skills transfer to success in the workplace.
Does a Degree in Philosophy Make One More Employable?
There’s a fair amount of pessimism associated with employment prospects after graduation from a philosophy degree program. Because the field is so broad and doesn’t point toward a specific career path, many students fear they’ll be overlooked by employers or passed up in favor of someone with a more targeted degree. Is it possible, though, that a degree in philosophy could actually make you more employable? Absolutely! Let’s discuss the skills a philosophy degree plan can give students that transfer to a professional environment.
While nearly all liberal arts curricula will facilitate solid critical thinking skills, none do it better than plans of study in philosophy. In philosophy courses, students are continually pushed to look at controversial topics from all possible angles. Professors urge students to think deeply about various subjects and viewpoints, questioning their own biases and flaws in logic. This type of extreme critical thinking becomes habitual for philosophy majors and can be quite valuable in workplace situations.
The excellent critical thinking skills students gain from philosophical study go hand in hand with the development of good communication skills. That is, clear thinking promotes clear writing and clear speaking. Moreover, the majority of assignments that a philosophy major will be asked to complete will involve scholarly writing. Over the duration of the program, students will become quite skilled in the written word. As far as verbal communication is concerned, students will be asked to participate in class discussions, formal debates, and oral presentations.
Ethical Analysis
Much of philosophical study consists of grappling with moral dilemmas and discussing ethical behaviors and choices. These experiences teach philosophy students to reason ethically and analyze various scenarios to determine the right course of action. It’s easy to see how these skills could help someone make good decisions in the workplace. Employers often report philosophy majors to be among the most reliable and trustworthy team members they have.
Best Minors and Concentrations for Philosophy Majors
Philosophy is a very broad major. Adding a minor or concentration to your degree plan can help you specialize in a specific sub-field of the discipline, making you more knowledgeable in this one area. In turn, this can make you more employable in certain fields after graduation.
Choosing a minor or concentration for your philosophy degree is an important decision because it can shape your academic life and career path for the foreseeable future. You’ll want to make sure that the minor or concentration you choose is an area you’re genuinely interested in and one that will help further your professional aspirations.
A minor or concentration in bioethics is the ideal choice for philosophy majors interested in pursuing a health-related career. The field of bioethics marries the study of health care and ethics, tackling the issues surrounding the morality of medicine. Course titles typical of a minor or concentration in bioethics include the following:
The Ethics of Medicine
Sociology of Mental Health
Bioethics and the Law
Students with ambitions for public office or those who wish to work in public affairs or administration may benefit from a degree in philosophy with a concentration or minor in Political Science. Ultimately, students who elect a political science emphasis will study the ethics of politics. Course titles may include:
Topics in Political Philosophy
Philosophy, Economy, and Society
An increasingly popular concentration/minor in the discipline of philosophy, the study of mathematics prepares students for further study or careers in STEM fields. Students who combine the study of mathematics with philosophy gain a broader insight into the intellectual processes that drive mathematical theories. They can expect to encounter courses like the following:
Topics in Mathematical Logic
Symbolic Logic
The degree in philosophy with an economics concentration will facilitate the study of topics like economic theory, social justice, and economic policy. Students who hope to pursue a career in economics will benefit most from this specialty. Classes may include:
Probability and Decision Theory
Jobs for Professionals with an Undergraduate Degree in Philosophy
There aren’t many entry-level positions in philosophy itself, but there are many related jobs in other fields and industries that are well-suited for graduates of an associate’s or bachelor’s degree program in philosophy.
Paralegals and Legal Assistants
Mean Annual Wage: $50,940
Job Growth Projection: 12% (Much Faster Than Average)
Careers as paralegals and legal assistants are popular choices for those with an associate’s degree in philosophy. These two-year degree programs provide students with an introduction to important ethical concepts that will serve them well in the legal environment. Students enrolled in an associate’s in philosophy program will also learn how to think critically, research effectively, and write clearly—important skills for legal assistants. On the job, paralegals will be charged with helping lawyers prepare for cases by gathering facts, conducting research, and writing briefs.
Marketing and Advertising Managers
Mean Annual Wage: $132,620
Job Growth Projection: 8% (Faster Than Average)
The unique skillset one gains from a philosophy degree program lends itself well to a career in marketing and advertising. Marketing and advertising managers, in particular, must have above average verbal and written communication skills in order to lead team initiatives and provide feedback to group members. These professionals must also have excellent critical thinking skills since they are charged with evaluating the success of marketing and advertising campaigns and developing strategies for improvement.
Job Projection: 0% (Little or No Change)
You may have heard it said that clear writing requires clear thinking. For philosophy majors, thinking clearly and logically is priority number one in order to make the grade. The curriculum for philosophy degrees requires that students take classes in basic logic and reasoning, and students routinely participate in debates that require a deep level of thought and analysis. All of this makes for great preparation for a career as a writer or author. Writers often work from home and make their own hours, so the career is a popular one. This means there is a lot of competition, so jobs may be difficult to find. The field can be lucrative though; the top ten percent of writers and authors in the United States earned over $120,000 per year in 2018.
Social and Community Service Managers
Job Projection: 13% (Much Faster Than Average)
Philosophy majors study social issues in-depth, making them ideal candidates for positions as social and community service managers. In this role, graduates of philosophy degree programs will be charged with creating and overseeing initiatives to improve their local communities and social service programs. They must also rely on their excellent critical thinking skills to evaluate the effectiveness of these initiatives and plan for necessary changes and adjustments. The earning potential for this particular career can vary significantly depending on specific employment details; the lowest 10% of earners in this field earned around $40,000 in 2018 while the top 10% earned well over $100,000.
Careers for Those With a Graduate Degree in Philosophy
Students who hold graduate degrees in philosophy have even more career opportunities available to them. They may also have a competitive edge over job applicants with bachelor’s credentials in philosophy and have the potential to earn more, too.
College/University Philosophy Professor
Job Projection: 10% (Faster Than Average)
Many individuals who study philosophy feel compelled to teach others about this fascinating academic discipline. Unless they plan to teach at a two-year community college, students with a desire to teach at the postsecondary level must earn their doctorate in philosophy. Clearly, this credential prepares students with the necessary knowledge of the field that they’ll need to pass on to their students in the classroom environment. Philosophy professors also need to keep abreast of any research findings and other developments in the field. Most are members of professional organizations and associations such as the American Association of Philosophy Teachers, for example.
Political Scientists
Median Annual Wage: $117,570
Job Projection: 5% (As Fast As Average)
The field of politics covers many of the same topics that philosophy majors study in school, including morality, ethics, justice, and religion, for example. Thus, careers in political science are suitable for those with a graduate philosophy credential. The job duties of a political scientist include researching social issues, analyzing and evaluating public policy, and making projections regarding the economy and other social issues. Political scientists usually specialize in a specific sub-field of politics such as international relations, political theory, or national politics, for instance. A position as a political scientist is one of the most lucrative roles a philosophy major can pursue.
Job Projection: 8% (Faster than Average)
Economics might not be the first field that comes to mind when you think of jobs for philosophy majors. Many of the skills taught in philosophy classes do apply to the duties of an economist, though. For example, economists must critically evaluate economic issues and reason logically to develop solutions to problems involving the economy. Advanced research and writing skills are also helpful since economists must routinely collect, analyze, and report on economic data.
Lawyer/Attorney
Though it’s not the only path to a career as a lawyer or attorney, a degree in philosophy can help prepare students for the challenges they’ll face in this legal profession. A major in philosophy facilitates the development of sharp analytical skills—skills that will help attorneys inside and outside of the courtroom. As an added benefit, the philosophy curriculum acts as excellent preparation for the Law School Admission Test (LSAT).
Famous/Successful People Who Majored in Philosophy
If you think no one studies philosophy, you’re wrong. In fact, many celebrities and highly successful people have made philosophy their major. In this section, we’ll highlight some of these individuals.

Born in New York City in 1929, Levin studied both English and philosophy at New York University as an undergraduate. He died in 2007.
Often referred to as the “father of modern linguistics,” Noam Chomsky was born in 1928 and received his PhD from the University of Pennsylvania in 1955.

Supply Chain Management, which is often called SCM in business, is the business practice of managing materials and information as they go from the supplier to the manufacturer. Since the flow of goods is so important in the world of business, being dedicated to effective SCM is crucial. There are several different dimensions of SCM. Some of these dimensions require management by an experienced professional with an operation management degree and others require the use of an integrated software system. Read on and learn more about the flows of SCM and what you need to know about software programs.

What Are the Three Flows of SCM?
To really understand what goes into managing a supply chain , you need to first understand the activities that require management. These activities all have their own flows and movements.Currently three different areas of movement or flows exist in SCM: Product Flow, Information Flow, Finance Flow.
In the product flow, products or materials will move from the supplier to the customer. This is also the flow where returns are sent from the customer to the supplier. In the information flow, orders are transmitted to the supplier and the supplier will receive special updates on deliveries and delays. In the final flow, the financial flow, payments schedules are updated and credit offers are extended. Since every flow is unique, there are different systems that should be learned.
Different Types of SCM Software Systems
In today’s world, any business that offers the public or other businesses products and services needs to find a way to streamline the supply-side of their activities. By taking the time to streamline the processes, the company can keep their cost of goods competitive and also maximize customer value to retain their clients. One way to ensure everything is streamlined is to integrate the right types of SCM software systems and applications.
The two most common and most popular types of SCM systems that exist today are planning and executing applications. The planning software system will use formulas and industry-standard algorithms to use data from inside and outside of the enterprise to predict or project what the best way to fill an order will be. The purpose is to fill the order quickly from the best location to keep the operation costs down and to stay most profitable. Execution software programs focus on the processes after orders are filled and before they are delivered. Within these programs, the products and packages will be tracked and the physical status will always be stored and easily accessible. The purpose of this system is so that materials and packaging can be shared or managed in the blink of an eye.
With all of the companies that are operating online or trying to compete with purely online businesses, supply chain management has never been more important. Companies really need to compare e-commerce or web-based applications that have all of the SCM features that are needed to manage their resources, to reduce costs and to plan for their needs in the near future. When a company is fully stocked but does not have too much inventory, they can keep their product management costs down while keeping their satisfaction ratings up. Be sure that you really get knowledgeable in supply chain management and stay on top of your supply chain flow. | 2023-14/0410/en_head.json.gz/5137 | {"url": "http://sbbkconsulting.com/index-691.html", "partition": "head_middle", "language": "en", "source_domain": "sbbkconsulting.com", "date_download": "2023-03-21T10:40:16Z", "digest": "sha1:PQNKBEEPY2CL4MK676GPQ3H5PE7W3BYB"} | {"ccnet_length": [[0, 3433, 3433.0]], "ccnet_original_length": [[0, 3433, 55916.0]], "ccnet_nlines": [[0, 3433, 10.0]], "ccnet_original_nlines": [[0, 3433, 1214.0]], "ccnet_language_score": [[0, 3433, 0.96]], "ccnet_perplexity": [[0, 3433, 249.8]], "ccnet_bucket": [[0, 3433, 0.0]], "rps_doc_curly_bracket": [[0, 3433, 0.0]], "rps_doc_ldnoobw_words": [[0, 3433, 0.0]], "rps_doc_lorem_ipsum": [[0, 3433, 0.0]], "rps_doc_stop_word_fraction": [[0, 3433, 0.46784566]], "rps_doc_ut1_blacklist": [[0, 3433, null]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_10grams": [[0, 3433, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_5grams": [[0, 3433, 0.03191489]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_6grams": [[0, 3433, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_7grams": [[0, 3433, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_8grams": [[0, 3433, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_dupe_9grams": [[0, 3433, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_2gram": [[0, 3433, 0.0106383]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_3gram": [[0, 3433, 0.02234043]], "rps_doc_frac_chars_top_4gram": [[0, 3433, 0.01205674]], "rps_doc_frac_all_caps_words": [[0, 3433, 0.01607717]], "rps_doc_frac_lines_end_with_ellipsis": [[0, 3433, 0.0]], "rps_doc_frac_no_alph_words": [[0, 3433, 0.08681672]], "rps_doc_frac_unique_words": [[0, 3433, 0.42170819]], "rps_doc_mean_word_length": [[0, 3433, 5.01779359]], "rps_doc_symbol_to_word_ratio": [[0, 3433, 0.0]], "rps_doc_unigram_entropy": [[0, 3433, 4.89063096]], "rps_doc_word_count": [[0, 3433, 562.0]], "rps_lines_ending_with_terminal_punctution_mark": [[0, 10, 0.0], [10, 614, 1.0], [614, 691, 0.0], [691, 724, 1.0], [724, 1024, 1.0], [1024, 1510, 1.0], [1510, 1550, 0.0], [1550, 1994, 1.0], [1994, 2787, 1.0], [2787, 3433, 1.0]], "rps_lines_javascript_counts": [[0, 10, 0.0], [10, 614, 0.0], [614, 691, 0.0], [691, 724, 0.0], [724, 1024, 0.0], [1024, 1510, 0.0], [1510, 1550, 0.0], [1550, 1994, 0.0], [1994, 2787, 0.0], [2787, 3433, 0.0]], "rps_lines_num_words": [[0, 10, 1.0], [10, 614, 99.0], [614, 691, 9.0], [691, 724, 7.0], [724, 1024, 45.0], [1024, 1510, 80.0], [1510, 1550, 6.0], [1550, 1994, 72.0], [1994, 2787, 135.0], [2787, 3433, 108.0]], "rps_lines_numerical_chars_fraction": [[0, 10, 0.0], [10, 614, 0.0], [614, 691, 0.02702703], [691, 724, 0.0], [724, 1024, 0.0], [1024, 1510, 0.0], [1510, 1550, 0.0], [1550, 1994, 0.0], [1994, 2787, 0.0], [2787, 3433, 0.0]], "rps_lines_start_with_bulletpoint": [[0, 10, 0.0], [10, 614, 0.0], [614, 691, 0.0], [691, 724, 0.0], [724, 1024, 0.0], [1024, 1510, 0.0], [1510, 1550, 0.0], [1550, 1994, 0.0], [1994, 2787, 0.0], [2787, 3433, 0.0]], "rps_lines_uppercase_letter_fraction": [[0, 10, 0.0], [10, 614, 0.03145695], [614, 691, 0.1038961], [691, 724, 0.21212121], [724, 1024, 0.04], [1024, 1510, 0.01028807], [1510, 1550, 0.175], [1550, 1994, 0.01351351], [1994, 2787, 0.01134931], [2787, 3433, 0.01083591]], "rps_doc_ml_palm_score": [[0, 3433, 0.06028891]], "rps_doc_ml_wikipedia_score": [[0, 3433, null]], "rps_doc_ml_wikiref_score": [[0, 3433, 0.03038347]], "rps_doc_books_importance": [[0, 3433, -123.77392592]], "rps_doc_openwebtext_importance": [[0, 3433, 22.47958851]], "rps_doc_wikipedia_importance": [[0, 3433, -98.32318513]], "rps_doc_num_sentences": [[0, 3433, 27.0]]} |

Arizona State racks up 557 yards, beats Colorado 42-34
By CRAIG MEYER
BOULDER, Colo. (AP) Trenton Bourguet threw for 435 yards and three touchdowns, all of which went to tight end Jalin Conyers, and Xazavian Valladay ran for three touchdowns as Arizona State racked up 557 total yards and held off a late push for a 42-34 victory against Colorado on Saturday night.
Utilizing an up-tempo attack, the Sun Devils (3-5, 2-3 Pac-12) scored a touchdown on each of their first two drives, going a combined 139 yards in 15 plays. Making his first career start, Bourguet completed his first nine passes for 161 yards.
On its way to a 28-17 halftime lead, an Arizona State offense that entered the night averaging 353.6 yards had put up 327 while averaging 8.4 yards per play. It finished the game with 10 plays of at least 20 yards.
"Getting on field and looking how they were playing defense, I kind of had a feeling that me and (tight end) Messiah (Swinson) were going to have a good day," Conyers said.
Despite allowing those gaudy offensive numbers, Colorado (1-7, 1-4) remained competitive for much of the first half. On a third-and-12 late in the second quarter, Buffaloes quarterback J.T. Shrout found freshman wide receiver Jordyn Tyson in stride for a 58-yard touchdown to get within 21-17. The Sun Devils, however, responded with a nine-play, 75-yard drive, capped by a 1-yard touchdown plunge from Valladay.
Arizona State led by at least 15 points for much of the second half, but an 88-yard punt return for a touchdown from Tyson got Colorado within 42-34 with 3:50 remaining. The Sun Devils were able to mount a seven-play, 36-yard drive that ran out the clock.
"The plays haven't changed," Arizona State interim head coach Shaun Aguano said. "The template changed. The play calling changed. It is gratifying. I'm crossing my fingers on the sideline hoping it works, but the kids bought in. They trusted the changes that I made and I'm grateful for that."
Valladay, the Football Bowl Subdivision active leader in career yards rushing, ran for 118 yards, giving the Wyoming transfer more than 4,000 for his career.
Shrout was 13-of-34 passing for 222 yards with two touchdowns. Tyson had 115 yards receiving along with his two touchdowns, the third-highest total for a true freshman in program history. Deion Smith added 111 yards rushing and a score for the Buffaloes.
"You think about the scoreline being 42-20. What's happened throughout the course of the year when the scoreline looks like that? That's why a lot of people left," Colorado interim head coach Mike Sanford said, referring to a thinned-out home crowd in the fourth quarter. "But I'm going to tell those people that left that this team's going to fight to the very end and there will be a breakthrough. I believe that."
In a battle of teams with interim head coaches, Arizona State earned its second-consecutive victory against Colorado. It scored a combined 77 points in those contests.
With the loss, the Buffaloes secured their 15th sub-.500 record in the past 17 seasons. In the previous 21 seasons, they finished with a losing record just three times.
Arizona State linebacker Kyle Soelle, who entered the night third in the FBS in tackles, left the game in the third quarter but later returned. . Colorado freshman tight end Caleb Fauria had to be helped off the field after a 3-yard catch in the first quarter. He did not return. . Arizona State safety Chris Edmonds left the game late in the first half, but he later returned and had an interception. .
