Euthanasia
Another approach incorporates the notion of suffering into the definition . The definition offered by the Oxford English Dictionary incorporates suffering as a necessary condition , with `` the painless killing of a patient suffering from an incurable and painful disease or in an irreversible coma '' , This approach is included in Marvin Khol and Paul Kurtz 's definition of it as `` a mode or act of inducing or permitting death painlessly as a relief from suffering '' . Counterexamples can be given : such definitions may encompass killing a person suffering from an incurable disease for personal gain ( such as to claim an inheritance ) , and commentators such as Tom Beauchamp and Arnold Davidson have argued that doing so would constitute `` murder simpliciter '' rather than euthanasia .
Baptism
For catechumens who die before their Baptism , their explicit desire to receive it , together with repentance for their sins , and charity , assures them the salvation that they were not able to receive through the sacrament. ( 1259 )
Love It or List It
After Hilary 's renovation is complete , the homeowners are given a tour of their current home to see what she was able to accomplish . After the tour , David meets with them and hands them an evaluation of the home 's current market value following the renovations . He will then remind the couple what they could have in one of the new homes they looked at and that they would not get that in their current home .
Cremation
Although the Holy See has in some cases authorized bishops to grant permission for funeral rites to be carried out in the presence of cremated remains , it is preferred that the rites be carried out before cremation , in the presence of the still intact body . Practices that show insufficient respect for the ashes of the dead such as turning them into jewelry or scattering them are forbidden for Catholics . Anglicanism
Cremation
Burn him not up , nor quite consume him , Agni : let not his body or his skin be scattered , O all possessing Fire , when thou hast matured him , then send him on his way unto the Fathers . When thou hast made him ready , all possessing Fire , then do thou give him over to the Fathers , When he attains unto the life that waits him , he shall become subject to the will of gods . The Sun receive thine eye , the Wind thy Prana ( life - principle , breathe ) ; go , as thy merit is , to earth or heaven . Go , if it be thy lot , unto the waters ; go , make thine home in plants with all thy members . --
Sinner's prayer
Dear Lord Jesus , I know that I am a sinner , and I ask for Your forgiveness . I believe You died for my sins and rose from the dead . I turn from my sins and invite You to come into my heart and life . I want to trust and follow You as my Lord and Savior . In Your Name .
Megacity
In 2002 , research showed that children and families were the largest growing segment of the homeless population in the United States , and this has presented new challenges , especially in services , to agencies . In the USA , the government asked many major cities to come up with a ten - year plan to end homelessness . One of the results of this was a `` Housing first '' solution , rather than to have a homeless person remain in an emergency homeless shelter it was thought to be better to quickly get the person permanent housing of some sort and the necessary support services to sustain a new home . But there are many complications with this kind of program and these must be dealt with to make such an initiative work successfully in the middle to long term .
Baptism
Baptism ( from the Greek noun βάπτισμα baptisma ; see below ) is a Christian sacrament of admission and adoption , almost invariably with the use of water , into the Christian Church generally . The canonical Gospels report that Jesus was baptized -- a historical event to which a high degree of certainty can be assigned . Baptism has been called a holy sacrament and an ordinance of Jesus Christ . In some denominations , baptism is also called christening , but for others the word `` christening '' is reserved for the baptism of infants . Baptism has also given its name to the Baptist churches and denominations .
Euthanasia
Many non-Catholic churches in the United States take a stance against euthanasia . Among Protestant denominations , the Episcopal Church passed a resolution in 1991 opposing euthanasia and assisted suicide stating that it is `` morally wrong and unacceptable to take a human life to relieve the suffering caused by incurable illnesses . '' Other Protestant churches which oppose euthanasia include :
Name change
Under the federal immigration - and - nationality law , when aliens apply for naturalization , they have the option of asking for their names to be changed upon the grants of citizenship with no additional fees . This allows them the opportunity to adopt more Americanized names . During the naturalization interview , a petition for a name change is prepared to be forwarded to a federal court . Applicants certify that they are not seeking a change of name for any unlawful purpose such as the avoidance of debt or evasion of law enforcement . Such a name change would become final if within their jurisdiction , once a federal court naturalizes an applicant .
Recycling
In some U.S. states , a program called RecycleBank pays people to recycle , receiving money from local municipalities for the reduction in landfill space which must be purchased . It uses a single stream process in which all material is automatically sorted .
Egg donation
Once the screening is complete and a legal contract signed , the donor will begin the donation cycle , which typically takes between three and six weeks . An egg retrieval procedure comprises both the Egg Donor 's Cycle and the Recipient 's Cycle . Birth control pills are administered during the first few weeks of the egg donation process to synchronize the donor 's cycle with the recipient 's , followed by a series of injections which halt the normal functioning of the donor 's ovaries . These injections may be self - administered on a daily basis for a period of one to three weeks . Next , follicle - stimulating hormones ( FSH ) are given to the donor to stimulate egg production and increases the number of mature eggs produced by the ovaries . Throughout the cycle the donor is monitored often by a physician using blood tests and ultrasound exams to determine the donor 's reaction to the hormones and the progress of follicle growth .
Egg donation
The recipient also trusts that the medical history of the donor and her family is accurate . This factor of trust should not be underestimated in importance . Donors in the US are paid thousands of dollars ; such compensation may attract unscrupulous individuals inclined to conceal their true motivations . However , a full psychological evaluation is required by most IVF clinics , giving an indication if the donor is trustworthy or not .
Egg donation
Having contact and meeting among families sharing the same donor generally has positive effects . It gives the child an additional extended family and may help give the child a sense of identity by answering questions about the donor . It is more common among open identity - families headed by single men / women . Less than 1 % of those seeking donor - siblings find it a negative experience , and in such cases it is mostly where the parents disagree with each other about how the relationship should proceed .
Bar and Bat Mitzvah
In May , 1992 , the board of trustees of the Union of American Hebrew Congregations ( now the Union for Reform Judaism ) , the synagogue arm of the Reform Movement , unanimously passed a resolution decrying `` excesses of wasteful consumption ... glitzy theme events , sophisticated entertainment ... and expensive party favors , '' calling instead for `` family cohesion , authentic friendship , acts of tzedakah ( righteous giving ) , and parties suitable for children . ''
Baptism
The Church has always held the firm conviction that those who suffer death for the sake of the faith without having received Baptism are baptized by their death for and with Christ . This Baptism of blood , like the desire for Baptism , brings about the fruits of Baptism without being a sacrament. ( 1258 )
LASIK
LASIK or Lasik ( laser - assisted in situ keratomileusis ) , commonly referred to as laser eye surgery or laser vision correction , is a type of refractive surgery for the correction of myopia , hyperopia , and astigmatism . The LASIK surgery is performed by an ophthalmologist who uses a laser or microkeratome to reshape the eye 's cornea in order to improve visual acuity . For most people , LASIK provides a long - lasting alternative to eyeglasses or contact lenses .
Urban renewal
Urban renewal sometimes lives up to the hopes of its original proponents -- it has been assessed by politicians , urban planners , civic leaders , and residents -- it has played an undeniably important if controversial role . But at other times urban redevelopment projects have failed in several American cities , having wasted large amounts of public funds to no purpose .
Old-Time Religion
Give me that old - time religion , Give me that old - time religion Give me that old - time religion It 's good enough for me
Sanctification
Sanctification is the act or process of acquiring sanctity , of being made or becoming holy . It is a gift given through the power of God to a person or thing which is then considered sacred or set apart in an official capacity within the religion . In general anything from a temple , to vessels , to days of the week , to a human believer who willingly accepts this gift can be sanctified . To sanctify is to literally `` set apart for particular use in a special purpose or work and to make holy or sacred . '' Etymologically , `` sanctify '' derives from the Latin verb sanctificare which in turn derives from sanctus `` holy '' and facere `` to make '' .
United Church of Christ
Pronouncements : A Pronouncement is a statement of Christian conviction on a matter of moral or social principle and has been adopted by a two - thirds vote of a General Synod . Proposals for Action : A Proposal for Action is a recommendation for specific directional statements and goals implementing a Pronouncement . A Proposal for Action normally accompanies a Pronouncement . ( See link above regarding Pronouncements . ) Resolutions and Other Formal Motions Which may consist of the following three types : Resolutions of Witness : A Resolution of Witness is an expression of the General Synod concerning a moral , ethical , or religious matter confronting the church , the nation , or the world , adopted for the guidance of the officers , Associated , or Affiliated Ministries , or other bodies as defined in Article VI of the Bylaws of the United Church of Christ ; the consideration of local churches , Associations , Conferences , and other bodies related to the United Church of Christ ; and for a Christian witness to the world . It represents agreement by at least two - thirds of the delegates voting that the view expressed is based on Christian conviction and is a part of their witness to Jesus Christ . Prudential Resolutions : A Prudential Resolution establishes policy , institutes or revises structure or procedures , authorizes programs , approves directions , or requests actions by a majority vote ... Other Formal Motions National
Egg donation
In the Orthodox Jewish community there is no consensus as to whether an egg donor needs to be Jewish in order for the child to be considered Jewish from birth . In the 1990s religious authorities said that if the birth mother was Jewish that the child would be Jewish as well , but in the past few years rabbis in Israel have begun to reconsider , which in turn is causing more debate around the world . Conservative Rabbi Elliot Dorff has suggested that there are arguments for both sides ( birth mother or genetic mother ) in religious scripture . Dean of the Center for the Jewish Future at Yeshiva University believes that any child where the birth mother or the genetic mother is n't Jewish should go through a conversion process in infancy , to be sure that their Judaism is n't questioned later in life . This is not an issue in the reform community for two reasons . First , only one parent must be Jewish for the child to be considered Jewish ; thus , if the father is Jewish , the mother 's religion is irrelevant . Second , if the mother who carries the pregnancy and gives birth is Jewish , reform Jews will generally consider that child to be Jewish from birth because it was born of a Jewish mother .
Egg donation
Once the doctor decides the follicles are mature , he / she will establish the date and time for the egg retrieval procedure . Approximately 36 hours before retrieval , the donor must administer one last injection of HCG hormone to ensure that her eggs are ready to be harvested . The egg retrieval itself is a minimally invasive surgical procedure lasting 20 -- 30 minutes , performed under sedation ( but sometimes without any ) . A small ultrasound - guided needle is inserted through the vagina to aspirate the follicles in both ovaries , which extracts the eggs . After resting in a recovery room for an hour or two , the donor is released . Most donors resume regular activities by the next day .
Glory (religion)
After the final judgement , in some doctrines all the righteous dead will arise and their bodies will be perfected and become a glorified body , under which form they can enter Heaven .
T cell
Cytotoxic T cells ( T cells , CTLs , T - killer cells , killer T cells ) destroy virus - infected cells and tumor cells , and are also implicated in transplant rejection . These cells are also known as CD8 T cells since they express the CD8 glycoprotein at their surfaces . These cells recognize their targets by binding to antigen associated with MHC class I molecules , which are present on the surface of all nucleated cells . Through IL - 10 , adenosine , and other molecules secreted by regulatory T cells , the CD8 cells can be inactivated to an anergic state , which prevents autoimmune diseases .
A Tale of Two Cities
In Dickens ' England , resurrection always sat firmly in a Christian context . Most broadly , Sydney Carton is resurrected in spirit at the novel 's close ( even as he , paradoxically , gives up his physical life to save Darnay 's . ) More concretely , `` Book the First '' deals with the rebirth of Dr. Manette from the living death of his incarceration .
Dejection: An Ode
My genial spirits fail ; And what can these avail To lift the smothering weight from off my breast ? It were a vain endeavour , Though I should gaze for ever On that green light that lingers in the west : I may not hope from outward forms to win The passion and the life , whose fountains are within .
Infertility
High - cost treatments are out of financial reach for some couples . Debate over whether health insurance companies ( e.g. in the US ) should be required to cover infertility treatment . Allocation of medical resources that could be used elsewhere The legal status of embryos fertilized in vitro and not transferred in vivo . ( See also Beginning of pregnancy controversy ) . Pro-life opposition to the destruction of embryos not transferred in vivo . IVF and other fertility treatments have resulted in an increase in multiple births , provoking ethical analysis because of the link between multiple pregnancies , premature birth , and a host of health problems . Religious leaders ' opinions on fertility treatments ; for example , the Roman Catholic Church views infertility as a calling to adopt or to use natural treatments ( medication , surgery , and / or cycle charting ) and members must reject assisted reproductive technologies . Infertility caused by DNA defects on the Y chromosome is passed on from father to son . If natural selection is the primary error correction mechanism that prevents random mutations on the Y chromosome , then fertility treatments for men with abnormal sperm ( in particular ICSI ) only defer the underlying problem to the next male generation .
Anterior cruciate ligament
ACL tears are among the most common knee injuries , with over 100,000 tears in the US occurring annually . Most ACL tears are a result of landing or planting in cutting or pivoting sports , with or without contact . Most serious athletes will require an ACL reconstruction if they have a complete tear and want to return to sports , because the ACL is crucial for stabilizing the knee when turning or planting . Reconstruction is most commonly done by autograft , meaning the tissue used for the repair is from the patient 's body . Other times , a cadaver is used for tissue . The two most common sources for tissue are the patellar tendon and the hamstrings tendon . The surgery is arthroscopic , meaning that a tiny camera is inserted through a small surgical cut . The camera sends video to a large monitor so that the surgeon can see any damage to the ligaments . In the event of an autograft , the surgeon will make a larger cut to get the needed tissue . In the event of an allograft , in which material is donated , this is not necessary . The surgeon will make holes in the patient 's bones to run the tissue through , and the tissue serves as the patient 's new ACL . Recovery time ranges between one and two years or longer . A week or so after the occurrence of the injury , the athlete is usually deceived by the fact that he / she is walking normally and not feeling much pain . This is dangerous as some athletes start resuming some of their activities such as jogging which , with a wrong move or twist , could damage the bones . It is important for the injured athlete to understand the significance of each step of an ACL injury to avoid complications and ensure a proper recovery .
Quality of life
Other organizations , however , may also work towards improved global quality of life using a slightly different definition and substantially different methods . Many NGOs do not focus at all on reducing poverty on a national or international scale , but rather attempt to improve quality of life for individuals or communities . One example would be sponsorship programs that provide material aid for specific individuals . Although many organizations of this type may still talk about fighting poverty , the methods are significantly different .
Would You Rather (film)
Iris , a young woman caring for her sick brother Raleigh , is unable to afford the costs of his treatment for leukemia . Her brother 's oncologist , Dr. Barden , introduces Iris to Shepard Lambrick , a philanthropist , who offers her a deal : if she wins a parlor game at a dinner party , his charitable foundation will pay for Raleigh 's treatment and locate a bone marrow donor for him immediately . Dr. Barden was a former winner of the game . Iris reluctantly accepts .
Eastern Orthodox Church
Baptism is the mystery which transforms the old and sinful person into a new and pure one ; the old life , the sins , any mistakes made are gone and a clean slate is given . Through Baptism a person is united to the Body of Christ by becoming a member of the Orthodox Church . During the service , water is blessed . The catechumen is fully immersed in the water three times in the name of the Holy Trinity . This is considered to be a death of the `` old man '' by participation in the crucifixion and burial of Christ , and a rebirth into new life in Christ by participation in his resurrection . Properly a new name is given , which becomes the person 's name .
Egg donation
Donors may also register , and therefore , donor registries may also match donors with their genetic children .
Somatic cell nuclear transfer
In the United States , the practice remains legal , as it has not been addressed by federal law . However , in 2002 , a moratorium on United States federal funding for SCNT prohibits funding the practice for the purposes of research . Thus , though legal , SCNT can not be federally funded . American scholars have recently argued that because the product of SCNT is a clone embryo , rather than a human embryo , these policies are morally wrong and should be revised .
LASIK
The procedure involves creating a thin flap on the eye , folding it to enable remodeling of the tissue beneath with a laser and repositioning the flap .
History of the Church of England
Pope Gregory issued more practicable mandates concerning heathen temples and usages : he desired that temples become consecrated to Christian service and asked Augustine to transform pagan practices , so far as possible , into dedication ceremonies or feasts of martyrs , since `` he who would climb to a lofty height must go up by steps , not leaps '' ( letter of Gregory to Mellitus , in Bede , i , 30 ) .
Great Expectations
Pip 's moral regeneration is a true pilgrimage punctuated by suffering . Like Christian in Bunyan 's The Pilgrim 's Progress , Pip makes his way up to light through a maze of horrors that afflict his body as well as his mind . This includes the burns he suffers from saving Miss Havisham from the fire ; the illness that requires months of recovery ; the threat of a violent death at Orlick 's hands ; debt , and worse , the obligation of having to repay them ; hard work , which he recognises as the only worthy source of income , hence his return to Joe 's forge . Even more important , is his accepting of Magwitch , a coarse outcast of society .
Brontë family
I have no horror of death : if I thought it inevitable I think I could quietly resign myself to the prospect ... But I wish it would please God to spare me not only for Papa 's and Charlotte 's sakes , but because I long to do some good in the world before I leave it . I have many schemes in my head for future practise -- humble and limited indeed -- but still I should not like them all to come to nothing , and myself to have lived to so little purpose . But God 's will be done .
Cremation
Civil suits were filed against the Marsh family as well as a number of funeral homes who shipped bodies to Tri-State ; these suits were ultimately settled . The property of the Marsh family has been sold , but collection of the full $80 - million judgment remains doubtful . Families have expressed the desire to return the former Tri-State crematory to a natural , parklike setting .
Love It or List It
After a moment to deliberate , Hilary and David pose a question to the homeowners . They must choose to either Love It , meaning that they will continue to live in their current home with the renovations , or to List It , meaning that they will buy one of the homes David showed them and sell their current home . After they reveal their decision , the homeowners explain their reasoning to Hilary and David ( who , if they decided to Love It , reacts with incredulity ) before bidding them farewell .
Name change
However , the Immigration Department which is responsible for processing applications for name change allows applicants to submit such applications without deeds poll ; anyone who has a phonetic English name only and wishes to include a western - style English name as part of his or her legal English name can apply to the Immigration Department without a deed poll . Only one application of this kind is allowed for each applicant ; any application for subsequent change ( s ) must be made with a deed poll .
