Aquinas’ “On The Eternity Of The World” : A 9 page paper
which evaluates “On the Eternity of the World” by St. Thomas
of Aquinas. This particular work of Aquinas’s is described
from the beginning in such a way that illustrates the many
different notions that one may obtain in regards to the
apparently simple statements that Aquinas makes. As the works
are further discovered and discussed there are many issues
which are more thoroughly detailed which brings the reader into
a position where a much clearer understanding of the statements
is attained. Throughout the evaluation of the work there are
examinations which detail some of the weak and the strong
points made by Aquinas. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Eternity : A 5 page paper discussing the relevancy of time and
eternity in relationship to a supreme being, or God. The issues
discussed are essentially based on the essay titled “Timeless
Eternity” by Brain Davies. The theories discussed address the
essential quality of time which is a highly opinionated reality. If
time is nothing more than an illusion then God does not exist in
any form within such confines as a time frame. The theories
addressed within Davies essay are all essentially confining the
divine essence and the subject of eternity within human ideas
which address the reality of time. No additional sources cited.

Problems of Religion : A 9 page paper discussing the views of
Karl Marx, Frederick Nietzsche and Sigmund Freud regarding
the role of religion in the lives of individuals and assessing the
success of each in dismissing its perceived worth. Marx
forbade it; Nietzsche ridiculed it as outside the realm of reality
for the true thinker; Freud accused it of burdening the human
race with the guilt with which we all, according to him,
struggle. While each of these philosophers believed themselves
to be quite successful in making religion disappear for their own
purposes, neither could continually keep it at bay. Bibliography

Novarum. Of Marx’s theories explored are “The German
Ideology” and the “Manifesto of the Communist Party.”
