"The Whites," Baum wrote, "by law of conquest, by justice of civilization, are masters of the American continent, and the best safety of the frontier settlements will be secured by the total annihilation of the few remaining Indians. Why not annihilation?"
ellauri083.html on line 338: Hendershot recalls that, in the Schreber case, God was believed to manifest his creative and destructive power as celestial rays (Freud 22). As with spider-webs and hedgehogs quills, this radial pattern describing dilation and contraction, movement back and forth from center to circumference and from circumference to center, is the essential figure for the paranoid narcissism of a subject who feels threatened by the world and guilty for having taken "his own body [...] as his love-object" (Freud 60). Signaling Fistule's repressed homosexuality, the rays of his intelligence had first been focused on the masochistic annihilation of his genitals, which he denies were the original object of his love ("organes hideux," "vomitoires de dejections"), and then had been used in reconstructing a sexless new reality. Insisting on his exemption from the Naturalist law of biological determinism, Fistule denies his human parentage and maintains that he was born of a star, which, shining like the rays of his genius, had inseminated him and allowed him to be the father of himself, causa sui. Homosexual guilt initially projected as the corruptibility of matter is overcome by Fistule's principle of Stellogenesis, which turns flesh into radiance and bodies into starlight. As Hendershot concludes: "In Freud's theory, the paranoiac withdraws from the world (decathexis), directs his or her cathectic energy to the ego resulting in self-aggrandizement, and then attempts to reestablish a cathectic relationship with the world in the form of a delusional system"
ellauri164.html on line 873: We would expect the pattern to repeat here. The people have rebelled, so the next part would be God’s wrath and threats of destruction. Instead, however, God merely grants their request for water. No mention of sin or possible annihilation, just grace in providing for Israel’s needs. The fact that this cycle we’ve come to expect changes is designed to highlight an important event; the oddity of the text “awakens us from our narrative slumber,” as one commentator puts it, and forces us to pay attention closely to what’s occurring. Why would God not threaten destruction? To answer that, we have to remember a key aspect of God’s character: He does not change. Hebrews 13:8 says He is the same yesterday and today and forever, “without variation or shifting shadow,” (James 1:17). The purpose of the threats of destruction, and Moses/Aaron’s intercession, was not to actually change God’s mind. God knew exactly what was going to happen in all these instances. God’s threats on Israel are spoken to Moses so that Moses will intercede. They are tests of Moses’ (and Aaron’s) character, just as God’s conversation with Abraham over the fates of Sodom and Gomorrah (Genesis 18) was about testing Abraham’s character rather than the doomed cities. Yet here, in Numbers 20, God does not follow the pattern. Why?
ellauri346.html on line 304: On Nov. 19, 2023, The Electronic Intifada, an online publication that focuses on Palestinian perspectives, claimed that a video showing Israeli children singing about the "annihilation" of Gaza had been shared, then deleted, on Israeli public broadcaster Kan News’ online platforms.
ellauri499.html on line 443: Kristinuskosta hän esittää rauhallisesti väitteensä, kuten sen, että Jeesus ja Paavali olivat eri mieltä monista asioista, mukaan lukien pelastuksen tiestä, mutta jakoivat epäuskon ikuiseen helvettiin. Hän sanoo, että molemmat ja Ilmestyskirjan kirjoittaja (josta hän on varma, ettei se ollut apostoli Johannes) opettivat annihilationismia (he Christian doctrine that sinners are permanently destroyed rather than being confined to Hell). Hän yksinkertaisesti jättää huomiotta tai tulkitsee uudelleen kohtia päinvastaisiksi (esim. Jes. 66:24 ; Dan. 12:2 ; Matt. 25:41 , 46 ; Mark. 9:43 , 48 ; 2. Tess. 1:9 ; Juud. 7 , 13 ; Ilm. 14:9–11 ; 20:10 , 14–15 ).
ellauri499.html on line 445: The main Biblical arguments for annihilationism rest in the mortality of man and the just punishment for sin (1 Timothy 6:15-16; 1 Corinthians 15:53-55; Romans 6:23). They claim that the popular conceptions of Hell stem from Jewish speculation during the intertestamental period, belief in an immortal soul which originated in Greek philosophy and influenced Christian theologians, literal interpretation of symbols in Revelation, and also graphic and imaginative medieval art and poetry. The New Testament teaches that the wicked will be punished with destruction for their sins (cf. Matthew 10:28; Acts 3:23; Philippians 3:19; 1 Thessalonians 5:3; 2 Thessalonians 1:9; 2 Peter 2:6; 2 Peter 3:7; Jude 1:7).
ellauri499.html on line 455: The Seventh-day Adventist Church view of Hell is annihilation and it is one of its distinctive tenets. This is described in Ecclesiastes 12:7: "When a person dies, the body turns to dust again, and the spirit goes back to God, who gave it." They hold that the doctrine of Hell as defined by mainstream Christianity is incompatible with the concept that God is love. You can say that again! Ketä herra rakastaa sitä hän ikuisesti rankaisee. Joka vizaa säästää se lastaan vihaa.
ellauri507.html on line 108: The Third Resignation (The Real/Physical Death): On his 25th birthday, he realizes his body is finally beginning to physically rot and decay. He realizes he will soon be buried underground for real. The "third resignation" is his final, terrifying acceptance of actual biological annihilation. He must resign himself to being buried alive in the eyes of a world that believes he was already dead.
xxx/ellauri165.html on line 664: An midway position between universal reconciliation and eternal torment is the doctrine of annihilationism, often in combination with Christian conditionalism. Some Christian leaders, such as influential theologian Martin Luther, have hypothesized other concepts such as "soul death".
xxx/ellauri165.html on line 666: In Christianity, annihilationism (also known as extinctionism or destructionism)[1] is the belief that those who are wicked will perish or cease to exist. It states that after the Last Judgment, all unsaved human beings, all fallen angels (all of the damned) and Satan himself will be totally destroyed so as to not exist, or that their consciousness will be extinguished rather than suffer everlasting torment in Hell (often synonymized with the lake of fire). Annihilationism stands in contrast to both belief in eternal torture and suffering in the lake of fire and the belief that everyone will be saved (universal reconciliation or simply "universalism").
xxx/ellauri165.html on line 668: Annihilationism is directly related to the doctrine of Christian conditionalism, the idea that a human soul is not immortal unless it is given eternal life. The belief in annihilationism has appeared throughout Christian history and was defended by several Church Fathers, but it has often been in the minority. The Church of England´s Doctrine Commission reported in 1995 that Hell may be a state of "total non-being", not eternal torment.
