Priestly Celibacy Certainly, celibacy, as a disciplinary norm of the Roman Catholic Church, is often subject to scrutiny and analysis in the modern age. It is due to the differences that occur within our communities and the divisions.

5 of the Most Haunted Places in the World Beechworth Asylum Beechworth Asylum, originally known as Mayday Hills Lunatic Asylum, was founded in 1867. It closed in 1995.

As previously described, out of the 14 variables tested, 4 were found to have a significant effect on the amount of Eastern Curlews present within each Quadrat. The first variable, the penetrometer resistance was found to have a negative effect on the amount present. This means that the Eastern Curlews had a preference for softer substrate. This can be attributed to how they source their food, which is present in the substrate. The more resistance the substrate has, the harder and more energy…
Visiting St. Paul’s Parish Princeton For this field observation project, I chose to attend the 5pm Sunday service at St. Paul’s Parish in Princeton. Growing up in the Pentecostal tradition, I have become at home in free worship and contemporary liturgy. Most of the church’s I’ve attended in the past had many informal elements in their liturgy, designed to make new-comers feel a little less awkward and part of the church family. As a new Methodist, I have found many Methodist churches…

It’s difficult to discuss these changes without sounding pompous or self-righteous, but I’ve come to find a great joy in reflecting on where I came from and where I stand today. Truly, I had never expected to attend college let alone fall in love with a…
Let's stop fighting the inventible APFT and understand what Physical Readiness Training is. First, PRT stands for Physical Readiness Training. FM 7-22 is a type of Physical Readiness Training. Comments like "I hate PRT" "I don't like doing PRT" only signifies that these people do not fully understand PRT and how it can differ from FM 7-22. FM 7-22 is the Army's Physical Readiness Training book but understand that this FM does not limit the unit's of doing other exercises. But it should be…
