Worse, there seems to be an active antipathy to such investigations just look at the firestorm we aroused by publishing a very small and innocuous study of the fundamental behavior of a particular data system In fact, from the response, you would almost think we committed heresy or attacked religious beliefs, in daring to suggest that PCR/PLS was not always the best way to go, much less do some serious research on the subject. [Pg.160]

While the personification of the four elements as deities may well have been in Egyptian mythology earlier than Aristotle, yet the description of qualities of the elements are manifestly Aristotelian, though inadequately reproduced. That religious beliefs of oriental origin in which the elements are personified are older than Aristotle, and even than Empedocles, the earliest proponent of the four elements as constituents of matter, is evident because Herodotus (484 424 B.C.), a writer contemporaneous with Empedocles, in discussing the customs of the Persians, states that they make sacrifices to Jupiter which is the name they give to the whole circuit of the firmament, and also to the sun, moon, to earth, fire, water and wind. [Pg.130]

Some aspects of organized religion appear to resemble state-specific sciences. There are techniques that allow that believer to enter a d-ASC and then have religious experiences in that d-ASC that are proof of his religious belief. People who have had such experiences usually describe them as ineffable, not fully comprehensible in an ordinary d-SoC. Conversions at revival meetings are the most common examples of religious experiences occurring in d-ASCs induced by an intensely emotional atmosphere. [Pg.209]

In addition to sexual harassment and accommodation of religious beliefs, equal treatment for individuals with disabilities is a significant issue for the treatment of both employees and customers. The Americans with Disabilities Act provides equal opportunity for persons who are disabled in the workplace. This act prohibits discrimination in all aspects of employment from hiring to firing, similar to practices that are covered by equal opportunity employment laws. Persons are considered disabled if they have either a physical or mental impairment that significantly limits one or more major life activities or have a record of impairment. Also, discrimination against a person who has a relationship with a disabled person is prohibited. [Pg.205]
