A call for the restoration of orthodoxy in South African Christian theology
Liberation theology can only be understood as a pseudo-theology inspired by the spirit of Marx. It is not a bona fide or leg itimate theology, but the polar opposite thereof. Its destructive aims mirror those of Marxism, which can only be understood if the demonic spirit of Marx is seen as its real origin. The Kairos Document and the Road to Damascus replaced the biblical God with the anti-god of Marx, the deified proletariat and the deified revolution. The article calls for a reconversion to God who revealed himself in Jesus Christ of Scriptures. Orthodox theology is truly ‘thisworldly’ theology, since it offers real hope and salvation. The Marxist gospel can only offer a utopia, a ‘no-place’. It is self-alienating, world-aUenating and God-alienating
Application of Monte Carlo-based statistical significance determinations to the Beta Cephei stars V400 Car, V401 Car, V403 Car and V405 Car
We have used Lomb-Scargle periodogram analysis and Monte Carlo significance
tests to detect periodicities above the 3-sigma level in the Beta Cephei stars
V400 Car, V401 Car, V403 Car and V405 Car. These methods produce six previously
unreported periodicities in the expected frequency range of excited pulsations:
one in V400 Car, three in V401 Car, one in V403 Car and one in V405 Car. One of
these six frequencies is significant above the 4-sigma level. We provide
statistical significances for all of the periodicities found in these four
stars.Comment: 11 pages, 17 figure
Short-coherence length superconductivity in the Attractive Hubbard Model in three dimensions
We study the normal state and the superconducting transition in the
Attractive Hubbard Model in three dimensions, using self-consistent
diagrammatics. Our results for the self-consistent -matrix approximation are
consistent with 3D-XY power-law critical scaling and finite-size scaling. This
is in contrast to the exponential 2D-XY scaling the method was able to capture
in our previous 2D calculation. We find the 3D transition temperature at
quarter-filling and to be . The 3D critical regime is much
narrower than in 2D and the ratio of the mean-field transition to is
about 5 times smaller than in 2D. We also find that, for the parameters we
consider, the pseudogap regime in 3D (as in 2D) coincides with the critical
scaling regime.Comment: 4 pages, 5 figure
