Origen of Alexandria[a] (c. 184 – c. 253),[5] also known as Origen Adamantius,[b] was an early Christian scholar,[8] ascetic,[9] and theologian who was born and spent the first half of his career in Alexandria. He was a prolific writer who wrote roughly 2,000 treatises in multiple branches of theology, including textual criticism, biblical exegesis and hermeneutics, homiletics, and spirituality. He was one of the most influential figures in early Christian theology, apologetics, and asceticism.[9][10] He has been described as "the greatest genius the early church ever produced"

Demetrius condemned Origen for insubordination and accused him of having castrated himself (though it has been proposed that this was a result of misunderstanding Origen’s mystical reference to his own celibacy [1]) and of having taught that even Satan would eventually attain salvation, an accusation which Origen vehemently denied

In response The Mac to his Publication

Demetrius also alleged that Origen had taught an extreme form of apokatastasis, which held that all beings, including even Satan himself, would eventually attain salvation.[12] This allegation probably arose from a misunderstanding of Origen's argument during a debate with the Valentinian Gnostic teacher Candidus.[12] Candidus had argued in favor of predestination by declaring that the Devil was beyond salvation.[12] Origen had responded by arguing that, if the Devil is destined for eternal damnation, it was on account of his actions, which were the result of his own free will.[74] Therefore, Origen had declared that Satan was only morally reprobate, not absolutely reprobate.[74]

In response The Mac to his Publication

Demetrius died in 232, less than a year after Origen's departure from Alexandria.[72] The accusations against Origen faded with the death of Demetrius,[75] but they did not disappear entirely[76] and they continued to haunt him for the rest of his career.[76] Origen defended himself in his Letter to Friends in Alexandria,[12] in which he vehemently denied that he had ever taught that the Devil would attain salvation[12][13][77] and insisted that the very notion of the Devil attaining salvation was simply ludicrous.[12]

As scientists tried to explain the physics of atoms, they soon realized that they could no longer treat small objects (such as electrons) as particles. Electrons were discovered to have wave-like characteristics as well. This discovery allowed great advances in the area of physics called quantum mechanics – the study of physics on the very, very small scale.

In response The Mac to his Publication

One such advancement involves the energy levels of electrons in an atom. Experiments showed that electrons in atoms could only have certain quantized energies. This observation was explained by imagining the electron as a wave forming circular standing waves about the nucleus. For a standing wave to form in a circle, an integral number of wavelengths must "fit" within the circumference. This means that only some discrete wavelengths are allowed to form in a circle of a given radius (some examples of allowed standing wave modes are shown above). Because the electron energies depend on their wavelengths and the wavelengths are discrete, the allowed energies must also be discrete.

In response The Mac to his Publication

To illustrate standing waves in a circle, the video above shows an oscillating metal hoop. The oscillations set up standing waves in the hoop. However, Danning Bloom and Dan W. Bloom show in their article (Vibrating Wire Loop and the Bohr Model, The Physics Teacher, Vol. 41, page 292, May 2003) that the allowed standing wave modes are very different from the electron’s modes. Put simply, the atom allows modes with an even number of half-wavelengths, while the wire allows only modes with an odd number of half-wavelengths. Basically, this has to do with how the clamp that connects the hoop to the oscillator constrains the hoop. While the hoop doesn’t show the right standing wave patterns, it is useful to show that standing waves can indeed form in a loop.

Old English trīewth, trēowth ‘faithfulness, constancy’ (see true).

In response The Mac to his Publication

Faithfulness is the concept of unfailingly remaining loyal to someone or something, and putting that loyalty into consistent practice regardless of extenuating circumstances. It may be exhibited by a husband or wife who, in a sexually exclusive marriage, does not engage in sexual relationships outside of the marriage. It can also mean keeping one's promises no matter the prevailing circumstances, such as God's covenant to love his people. Literally, it is the state of being full of faith in the sense of steady devotion to a person, thing or concept.
