...Chambers states that the communist has a rationalism epistemology. Examples are stated in the second paragraph where Chambers states that it is the vision of man's mind to be the sole force of its rational intelligence, redirecting man's destiny and reorganizing man's life and the world. Also, Chambers states that it man's vision to be the central figure of the Creation not because God made man in His image but because man makes him the most intelligent of the animals. This suggest that man is above God or there is no God. This excerpt suggest that communist has a humanism axiology. Chambers suggest that mankind is the peak or apex of creation. The excerpt provides an example, "Communism restores man to his sovereignty by the simple method od denying God. This suggest that man is above all. Although this could point to materilism axiology because he states that to meaningless chaos of nature , abundance, security, and peace for a particular reason. Either conclusion lead to teleolgy of Kingdom of Man. Lastly he suggest that communist have a Kingdom of Man teleology. What you see is what you get becuase he states in the excerpt that man will be the supreme force until nature replaces mankind with a more intelligent form of life.

...Career Goal Setting Starting at an incredibly young age we are always asked what we want to be in life, and that thought sticks with us throughout our entire educational endeavor. When I was in the fifth grade, I became obsessed with the game of golf. Everything that I did had to revolve around golf or I would rebel against it. It became my passion around the age of 10, and it has stuck with me until this very day. Throughout my high school career I always thought that being a golf professional was the career path for me, but now a part of me has realized that at some point golf needs to end. It is time for me to find a new dream career. My goal for this academic year is to find the career path in which I would like to pursue. My strengths of adaptability, communication, competition, futuristic, and significance are going to help me find a perfect career fit as well as set goals pertaining to it in the process....

...Goals in Life I firmly believe that if one plans on being a successful person in society, setting goals is a very important step. Having goals not only gives you a clear focus on things, it also helps you to organize your plans by allowing you to give yourself time limits and boundaries. Athletics are very fun, and may help count towards a goal in life. Sports may be fun, but you need hard work to become good at it. There is a chance that one day I may be able to get a scholarship for college. Sports take up time, and at some points are hard and may be a burden, but it is all worth it in the end. Becoming a better athlete is a goal of mine, but there are goals more important and the next one is. In only having sports and not education it would be like owning a car, but with out an engine inside. I want that engine; therefore I must get my education and maintain a high GPA. I could accomplish this by doing all my work. Also not only doing my work, but on time and as neat as I can get it. One goal that I work hard at daily is to try to do well in high school. I try to involve myself in any activity that I can, both academically and socially, so that I can graduate with honors. The reason why I do this is because I plan on going to college, and I would like to be able to get accepted into any school that I apply to. Immediately after I graduate, I want to start my career as an architect. In order to achieve my goal I will have to paying attention in class, and try to do more listening...

People will grow to forget many people who they have met through life's road, whether through school, work, church, social clubs, or any other thing they have been a part of, but people remember the person that changed their life. As a follower of Jesus, i want to be a man who is remember for saving someones life, just a doctor saves a terminally ill patient. Our country is dying from its religious foundations and unless Christians do their part, many people will waster away in the eternity of hell. I have the ambition to do something so great the entire world gets saved, and they may seem crazy, but it only starts with one person, then another.

...Alexa Jaime January 7th, 2015 AVID 11 Life Goals Essay Now that I am a junior in high school, it’s important for me to know what I want to do with my life after graduation and what steps I have to take to get there. In order to pursue the career you want to go into, you have to take a few more steps in order to get to that point. It might take a while for you to get there, but it’ll most likely be worth it. For now let’s start with the basics. No matter what career choice you decide to want to go for, you need to have the proper education even after high school in order to get there. As for me, I was currently stuck between three collages; University of Washington, Washington State University, and Central Washington University. After doing some deep research, I stuck to my current choice in my future education with the University of Washington (I’ll explain my reason why I choose this school later). I know in order for me to get accepted into the University, I need to start working on some acceptance essays for the collage and to obviously graduate high school. I feel like those two steps are the bigger ones to take as of right now. Let’s say I end up getting admitted into the University of Washington, now I need to figure out what courses I want to take in order to get where I want to be. As for me, I would like to work in the dental industry and become an orthodontist or dental assistant. Like I have stated before, I did some deep research...

Its senior year and time is ticking till graduation. As I transform into a mature adult, it is time for me to make decisions and set out what I want to be in life. My ambitions are to obtain an athletic scholarship for football, to help pave the way to becoming a civil engineer. It will be a bumpy ride along the way, but I can propel myself to achieve anything. I anticipate though sports such as football, can fund for my schooling to become a civil engineer. If I have a phenomenal upcoming season I can hopefully get recognized by athletic scouts and receive a full ride scholarship to a university. Though the off season I trained arduously to improve my talents as a player. Once I have reached my goal of becoming a student athlete in college, I will study a great deal to reach my main objective of becoming a civil engineer. Civil engineers deal with the designing of roads, bridges, and major highways. They construct the major structures around a city .The description of civil engineers, are to be fluid in mathematics and sciences. Therefore, I have enrolled in Calculus A.P. and Physics 2 A.P. These are rigorous courses to take, but both are the foundations of engineering. So why not get a step ahead of my competition...

...Running head: THE ADVANTAGES OF ME QUTTING SMOKING My goal to stop smoking Sarah E Fortenberry One main goal I have set for myself is to stop smoking. I have been a smoker since I was fifteen years old, and I find it unattractive and very nasty but yet it seems to calm me when I’m stressed, and it also has extremely bad consequences. For one I have a son and I want to be around him my whole life and if I continue smoking I could possibly develop cancer and live a short life and my son would not deserve that. I do not smoke at home or anywhere near my son or in my car, I only smoke at work but that’s still not an excuse that it is okay to me. In the following paragraphs I will provide information of three articles that I’ve read, one to understand more of why I do it, how to do it, and benefits to encourage doing it. The first article I selected is “Men, Women, and the Dangers of Smoking” and written by Dennis Thompson Jr. and medically reviewed by Pat F. Bass III, MD, MPH. The article explained to me that there is gender differences between why men and women smoke. I never knew that smoking could be defined by gender. For a man it explains that it keeps them going throughout the day, and for women it is mainly used to decrease stress. I do agree for me that is does decrease stress because I only find the need to do it at work after having a huge rush come in for coffee. The article explains that women...

...Since I was little I’ve always liked helping people. It never mattered if they asked for help on something that I didn’t know how to do, I’d help them as much as I could. Before it was always help on homework or things that they wanted me to do. Most recently I have been through some things that really affected the way that I want to help people. I’ve met some people with really hard lives, which made me realize that I want to help people with depression. When I talk to these people they tell me about what’s happening in their lives, and it saddens me that no one else has tried to help them or even listen to them. I have an amazing family. Everyone supports everything that I do if it makes me happy. My family has shaped me into who I am today. As a little girl, I was always told “do to one, as you would do to yourself.” So, I always did. My parents raised me to be respectful to people who respected me. They were with me through tough times and through good times, and I know they will be there for me in the future when I need them to be. Growing up around both my mom and my dad, I’ve learned a lot through what they do, and how they treat people. I believe thats the reason that I dream to help people. Another thing that has encouraged me to help people is my music. The music that I listen to gets me through some bad times when I don’t want to talk to anyone. If you listen to the lyrics, they actually mean something. Usually the lyrics talk about the bad times and things the...

...have been dealing and working with personal planning all my life, as a child and even as a teenager I was making dreams and setting goals for life. On occasion these goals are far stretched and sometimes even fairy-tale like, we tend to see life through a rose-colored glass, not taking into account the many sidetracks life throws our way. I feel that at that stage in life our goals tend to be less focused and somewhat unreachable. However, the process of growing up, or maturing, tends organized and center our goals, we learn to make compromises and set goals for our goals. There are different types of goals, short term and long term. I have learned to separate the many goals I have into three main categories: family, professional and personal. First, my family goals include how I see myself and how I see my family and the paths that life takes us. Being a mother and a wife to me has been the most important goal which I have set in the past, and now that the wonderful role of motherhood has taken me in full speed I have learned to adjust my goals and plans. The most important aspect of being a mother, and the long term that I have set for myself, is to be able to raise happy and healthy children that are able to face the world in a positive manner. In order to achieve my long term goals and plans for my family is that I have set a few short term goals that I believe will help in the process.
