I – The phenomenon • (1) evaluation of phenomenological account of being o Means of overcoming dualisms (interior/exterior) ▪ Rejects interiority of phenomenon as secret nature of being ▪ Rejects exterior phenomenon as the layer which hides the true nature of being ▪ There is no true nature of being (which is hidden by exterior and found in interior) • Phenomenon = totality of infinite series of manifested appearances • (4) no action indicates anything which is behind itself • (4) dualism of being/appearance no longer considered a law in philosophy • (4) appearance = total series of appearances • (4) being of existent = exactly what it appears • (4) phenomenon = absolutely indicative of itself • (4/5) Proust example • (5) Dualism of appearance/essence is rejected o Appearance = essence / reveals essence • (5) essence = law that presides over succession of appearances o Synthetic unity of manifestations of appearance o Yet essence remains simply an appearance • (5) phenomenonal being manifests itself and essence/existence • (5) phenomenal being is a connected series of manifested appearances • (5) falls back into finite/infinite dualism • (5) infinite number of appearances of phenomenon (the existent is always changing) o appearances are relations to a changing subject • (5) reality of being is replaced by objectivity of phenomenon o Based on appeal to infinity • (6) if subject is to reveal itself as transcendent, subject must transcend the appearance (singular) towards the total series to which it belongs • (6) infinite/finite dualism replaces being/phenomenon dualism • (6) the phenomenon is inexhaustible o infinity of possible appearances o implies transcendence/reference to the infinite o Essence is severed from individual appearance ▪ As it is that which must be able to be manifested by infinite series of individual appearances • (6) ALL dualisms are thus replaced by single dualism: infinite/finite • (7) essence is an ‘appearing’ which is no longer opposed to being o Problem of the ‘being of appearing’ ▪ Such is the frst major concern Sartre approaches
II: Phenomenon of being / Being of phenomenon • (7) the being of appearance • (7) appearance has its own being / is not supported by anything different than itself • (7) there must be a phenomenon of being / an appearance of being • (7) can pass from concrete phenomenon to essence through eidic reduction (Husserlian) • (8) Being is not a quality • (8) essence is not the meaning of the object / nor found within it • (8) essence is the principle of the series of appearances which disclose it • (8) Both presence / absence disclose being • (8) being is not participated in / possessed o Being simply ‘is’ o Object does not hide or disclose being • Being is the condition for revelation o Being is being-for-revealing / NOT revealed being • (8) when passing beyond something toward its being, you suddenly shift focus towards the ‘phenomenon of being’ o here, the phenomenon of being no longer is the condition of revelation, but rather itself is something revealed-as-appearance ▪ This appearance needs a being on the basis of which to reveal itself • (8) If being of phenomenon is not revealed in a phenomenon of being, you cannot say anything about being without considering being-of-phenomenon o (8/9) You must establish the relation of being to the being-of-phenomenon • (9) if being is not considered as the condition of revelation, but rather as an appearance determined by concepts: o Being cannot be accounted for by knowledge along
understanding is that yes, God allows "bad" things to happen; God does not cause them to happen. Most "bad" things which happen do so because God gives a radical freedom to God's people; we are free people, not puppets on a string. But God does not cause "bad" things to happen. God loves us and grieves with us in our pain when "bad things" happen. Therefore, we might best respond by saying that God does not Will "bad" things to happen in life. Rather, "bad"…
Independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall heir. This note was a promise that all men, yes, black men as well as white men, would be guaranteed the unalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. It is obvious today that America has defaulted on this promissory note insofar as her citizens of color are concerned. Instead of honoring this sacred obligation, America has given the Negro people a bad check; a check which has come back marked…

The Quran is unclear on whether wine consumption is good or bad because it takes both sides. Since the Quran was translated directly from God to Muhammad through the angel Gabriel not a word can be false. If the Quran is false then Islam is false. The Quran says sperm is emitted through man’s abdomen (between the…
