Postmortem spiritual development in the intermediate state and the final destiny of the unevangelised in the context of Opentheism

The thesis investigates postmortem spiritual development with particular reference to the final destiny of the unevangelised in the context of opentheism, using the concept of an intermediate state between death and the final consummation. Scripture warrant for the existence of an intermediate state is outlined and the occurrence of the idea in Patristic, medieval and Reformation theology noted. Varied interpretations of Christ's descent to the underworld are given, including the possibility of a grace-filled postmortem encounter with Christ for the unevangelised. The main tenets of opentheism are expounded, affirming the openness of God to interaction with his creatures. Emphasis is put on God's limitation of his own sovereignty to allow for libertarian freedom with humans participating in choosing their own destiny in response to God's grace. The idea of a change of direction or 'second chance' after death is preferred to final decisions regarding destiny requiring to be made in this life. Spiritual development, and even conversion, are conceived as taking place in an intermediate state, leading to a theological position of 'hopeful' rather than dogmatic universalism. Finally, the practical consequences for the life of the Church are studied, including pastoral care, theodicy as an aid to mission, and the advancement of dialogue with people of other faiths

Study of Small Water Clusters Using the Effective Fragment Potential Model

The recently developed effective fragment potential (EFP) model is applied to the description of a series of small water clusters, (H2O)n, n = 3−5. These results are compared with those found in the literature. The model accurately reproduces results obtained at ab initio levels of theory, while the computational cost is comparable to that of models employing empirical potentials. The EFP model thus offers significant promise as an inexpensive alternative to the Hartree−Fock methodology in the treatment of small water clusters

On the Question of Empirical Corrections in Ab Initio Model Chemistries

Model chemistries that employ additivity schemes have become increasingly popular within the chemical community. These approaches are predicated upon the assumption that less rigorous (and, therefore, less expensive) calculations may be combined to approximate a more accurate (and otherwise intractable) level of theory. Most of these models make some use of an empirical correction, the desirability of which is at best questionable. The present paper critically examines the importance of one such correction (the “higher-level correction”) to the most widely used additivity method (the Gaussian model). An alternative approach, which does not depend upon any sort of ad hoc empiricism, is also outlined. The current model is found to offer accuracy comparable to that of the Gaussian model

The Final Destiny of the Unevangelised

Some prefer to skirt around this thorny theological issue, but it is one that is nonetheless encountered from time to time in pastoral situations involving bereavement. Gordon Grant draws upon scriptural evidence, the thought of the early Church, and cutting edge contemporary theology to attempt to recast an eschatology for the unevangelised and to consider the implications of this for funeral rites in today's Church

Dynamic Temperature and Pressure Measurements in the Core of a Propulsion Engine

Dynamic temperature and pressure measurements were made in the core of a TECH977 propulsion engine as part of a NASA funded investigation into indirect combustion noise. Dynamic temperature measurements were made in the combustor, the inter-turbine duct, and the mixer using ten two-wire thermocouple probes. Internal dynamic pressure measurements were made at the same locations using piezoresistive transducers installed in semi-infinite coils. Measurements were acquired at four steady state operating conditions covering the range of aircraft approach power settings. Fluctuating gas temperature spectra were computed from the thermocouple probe voltage measurements using a compensation procedure that was developed under previous NASA test programs. A database of simultaneously acquired dynamic temperature and dynamic pressure measurements was produced. Spectral and cross-spectral analyses were conducted to explore the characteristics of the temperature and pressure fluctuations inside the engine, with a particular focus on attempting to identify the presence of indirect combustion noise

Social Risks, Social Needs, and Attitudes Toward Social Health Screening 1 Year Into the COVID-19 Pandemic: Survey of Adults in an Integrated Health Care Delivery System

Introduction Information about demographic differences in social risks, needs, and attitudes toward social health screening in non-highly vulnerable adult populations is lacking. Methods The authors analyzed data for 2869 Kaiser Permanente Northern California non-Medicaid-covered members aged 35 to 85 who responded to a 2021 English-only mailed/online survey. The survey covered 7 social risk and 11 social needs domains and attitudes toward social health screening. The authors used data weighted to the Kaiser Permanente Northern California membership to estimate prevalence of risks, needs, and screening receptivity in the overall population, by race/ethnicity (White, Black, Latinx, Asian American/Pacific Islander) and age (35-65 years old, 66-85 years old). Multivariable regression was used to evaluate differences between groups. Results Overall, 26% of adults were financially strained, 12% food insecure, 12% housing insecure, and 5% transportation insecure. Additionally, 7%, 8%, and 17% had difficulty paying for utilities, medical expenses, and dental care, respectively. Over 40% of adults wanted help with ≥ 1 social need. Dental care, vision/hearing care, paying for medical expenses and utilities, and managing debt/credit card repayment surpassed food, housing, and transportation needs. Prevalence of social risks and needs was generally higher among middle-aged versus older and Black and Latinx versus White adults. Among the 70% of adults receptive to screening, 85% were willing to complete a questionnaire and 40% were willing to have staff ask questions; 18% did not want to be screened. Conclusion When implementing social health screening in diverse patient populations, the prevalence of social risks and needs, as well as the acceptability of social health screening and screening modalities, will vary among demographic subgroups
