Jump to: navigation, search

Hector-Jonathan Crémieux (10 November 1828 – 30 September 1892) was a French librettist and playwright. His best-known work is his collaboration with Ludovic Halévy for Jacques Offenbach’s Orphée aux Enfers, known in English as Orpheus in the Underworld.

Life

Crémieux was born in Paris to a Jewish family - he was related to the lawyer Adolphe Crémieux . He studied law and then worked in the civil service. His first play, Fiesque (1852) was a historical drama, but before long he started to write comedies and then, in collaboration, operetta and opéra comique librettos. His collaborations with Halévy were often written under the joint pseudonym Paul d’Arcy.

In 1887, Crémieux became secretary-general of the Société des Dépôts Comptes Courants, and ceased writing. Five years later, the Société collapsed and he committed suicide in Paris.

Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997

February 7th, 2010

















Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997

Jump to: navigation, search

The Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997 (Public Law 105-34) reduced several federal taxes in the United States.

Subject to certain phase-in rules, the top capital gains rate fell from 28% to 20%. The 15% bracket was lowered to 10%.

Starting in 1998, a $400 tax credit for each child under age 17 was introduced, which was increased to $500 in 1999. This credit was phased out for high income families.

The act exempted from taxation profits on the sale of a personal residence of up to $500,000 for married couples filing jointly and $250,000 for singles.

The $600,000 estate tax exemption was to increase gradually to $1 million by the year 2006.

Family farms and small businesses could qualify for an exemption of $1.3 million, effective 1998. Starting in 1999, the $10,000 annual gift tax exclusion was to be corrected for inflation.

The act also provided tax relief for retirement accounts as well as education savings in the Hope Scholarship Credit and Lifetime Learning Credits. Some expiring business tax provisions were extended.

It was signed into law by President Bill Clinton on August 5, 1997.

Legislative history

This was the first law devoted solely to tax cuts that Congress enacted using the fast-track budget reconciliation process.

Final House vote, July 30, 1997:

Vote by Party Yea Nay
Republicans 225 99.6% 1 0.4%
Democrats 164 80.0% 41 20.0%
Independents 0 0.0% 1 100%
Total 389 90.0% 43 10.0%
Not voting 2 1

Final Senate vote, July 30, 1997:

Vote by Party Yea Nay
Republicans 55 100% 0 0.0%
Democrats 37 82.2% 8 17.8%

Roger Delk

February 7th, 2010

















Roger Delk

Jump to: navigation, search

Roger Delk (also spelled Dilke, Delke, or Dilk) (died before 1635) was a representative for Stanley’s Hundred in the House of Burgesses.

Born in England, Delk married his first wife Sarah there shortly before setting out for the Virginia Colony. Delk’s wife bore a daughter, Elizabeth born April 1622 in Middlesex, London. Delk traveled from England to Virginia aboard the ship “South Hampton” in 1624. This ship had been one of Sir Walter Raleigh’s ships used on his last expedition to South America. It is likely that his wife was to follow him later, but most likely died before. In any case, shortly after his arrival in the colony, he married Alice Davenport who had arrived on the same boat as he did.

Roger was indentured to John Chew and employed in 1624 on his plantation on Hog Island. He worked out his indenture by 1626, and in 1628 Francis West, “Governor and Captaine Generall”, granted him 1,000 acres (4 km²) on Lawne’s Creek which flows into the James River just below Hog Island. The size of this patent suggests the possibility of some influence having been exerted in his behalf.

In a court session held at James Citye (Jamestown on May 7, 1627, it was ruled that Roger Dilk (by his own confession) had absented himself from his plantation without the knowledge or leave of his commander contrary to an order of Court for the space of 8 days complete, and he was fined to pay 25 pounds of tobacco for every 24 hours he was absent, totaling the sum of 200 pounds of tobacco.

Despite this he rose rapidly in esteem and was chosen to represent “Stanley Hundred” in the House of Burgesses, the first legislative assembly in North America.

He served during the 1 February 1632-1633 session and may have lived too high above his means in Jamestown, while attending the assembly in 1634 for he was outlawed for debts and a capias was issued against him.

He appears to have died before 1635 as Alice his wife patented land in that year on Lawnes Creek in her own name. He had one son, Roger II.

Christological argument

February 6th, 2010

sharp camcorder
















Christological argument

Jump to: navigation, search

The Christological argument for the existence of God is based on certain claims about Jesus. The argument, which exists in several forms, holds that if these claims are valid, one should accept God exists. There are three main threads:

  1. Argument from the wisdom of Jesus
  2. Argument from the claims of Jesus as son of God
  3. Argument from the resurrection

Contents

  • 1 Argument from the wisdom of Jesus
  • 2 Argument from the claims of Jesus to divinity
    • 2.1 Suggested reasons for disputing the premises
  • 3 Argument from the Resurrection
  • 4 References

Argument from the wisdom of Jesus

The essential structure of this argument is as follows:

  1. The character and wisdom of Jesus is such that his views about reality are (or are likely to be) correct.
  2. One of Jesus’ views about reality was that God exists.
  3. Therefore the view that God exists is (or is likely to be) correct.

Discussion of this argument generally focuses on point 1.

Some forms of evangelism take this approach. Potential converts are introduced to Jesus as a historical character and the merits of Jesus’ teachings are discussed. In such a context, the historicity of Jesus of Nazareth is a crucial factor in assessing the argument.

The principal objections to (1) are the suggestions that:

  1. The reports of Jesus’ character in the Bible are not reliable.
  2. Jesus’ views about reality are not (or not likely to be) necessarily correct. Bertrand Russell, in his essay “Why I Am Not a Christian”, criticized Jesus’ personal character and philosophical positions on various grounds.
  3. Even supposing that Jesus was correct, wise, and knowledgeable about a great many things does not imply that he was knowledgeable about everything. A deep knowledge of moral philosophy and the iniquities of the human condition, for example, do not necessarily imply any valid expertise on astrophysics, Phoenician literature, or the literal existence of God.

Argument from the claims of Jesus to divinity

A related line of evangelical argument addresses the notion that Jesus Christ was a great philosopher and ethicist, but not God. It draws on the Trilemma as postulated by C. S. Lewis and others, which argues that Jesus claimed to be God, and either this claim was true and Jesus was in fact divine, or else he was a charlatan or a madman. Assuming the trilemma to be accurate, the argument proceeds in stating that neither a charlatan or a madman could be considered a great moral teacher and that therefore the possibility of Jesus being merely a great moral teacher is excluded.

The argument conditionally argues for the existence of God; it relies on the premise that Jesus was a great moral teacher. The structure of the argument is as follows:

  1. Jesus claimed to be God
  2. Jesus was a wise moral teacher
  3. By the trilemma, Jesus was dishonest, deluded or God
  4. No wise moral teacher is dishonest
  5. No wise moral teacher is deluded
  6. By 2 and 4, Jesus was not dishonest
  7. By 2 and 5, Jesus was not deluded
  8. By 3, 6 and 7, Jesus was God
  9. By 8, God exists

Suggested reasons for disputing the premises

Those who dispute these premises may suggest that:

  1. Disputing the existence of Jesus: An unwritten premise of the argument is that Jesus Christ was a real historical figure, which is yet to be established using empirical evidence.
  2. Disputing premise 1: Jesus was indeed a wise moral teacher, but his reported teachings have been distorted or misrepresented. For instance, he may not have actually claimed to be divine; this claim may have been added by later writers. Many modern New Testament scholars argue that Jesus did not, in fact, claim to be God.
  3. Disputing premise 4: A person can be a wise moral teacher despite lying. Jesus could have believed (as some later philosophers have held) that religion is false but beneficial to society, and that by establishing a new religion (or a reform of Judaism) he was doing a good deed nonetheless.
  4. Disputing premise 5: A person can be a wise moral teacher despite being delusional. Granting credence to some, or even most, of someone’s claims does not require that we give credence to all of them. Someone can believe Socrates’ philosophical claims about justice without also believing Socrates’ theological speculations about the Greek gods, or accept Aristotle’s views on poetry without also accepting his claim that heavier objects fall faster than lighter ones.

Another form of attack (similar to the Argument from inconsistent revelations) does not directly dispute the premises, but instead underlines the applicability of this argument to other historical religious figures, such as the Buddha and Muhammed, each of whom is revered in their faith as a wise and moral teacher, and each of whom made specific claims regarding their interaction with the divine.

Argument from the Resurrection

See also: Arguments for the existence of God and Christology

Another argument is that the Resurrection of Jesus occurred and was an act of God, hence God must exist. William Lane Craig advances this, based on what he says are four historical facts about the Resurrection: 1. After his crucifixion, Jesus was buried in a tomb by Joseph of Arimathea; 2. On the Sunday following the crucifixion, Jesus’ tomb was found empty by a group of his women followers; 3. On multiple occasions and under various circumstances, different individuals and groups of people experienced appearances of Jesus alive from the dead; 4. The original disciples believed that Jesus was risen from the dead despite their having every predisposition to the contrary. In light of these, he goes on to say the best explanation is that God raised Jesus from the dead.
