“I do think students in public school (and private) should be required to study the Bible.

“Females avoid conflict. They are afraid of violence. The males, on the other hand, are less averse to strife. But once conflict breaks out, the males are much better at reconciling. In a study done in Finland, children who had quarreled were asked how much longer they intended to be angry at one another. The boys proudly said: "Oh, at least one or two days." The girls said "forever".” ChildrenSaidTwoDoneHandsGirlBoysBreakForeverStudyViolenceConflictFemaleAngryMalesStrifeTwo DaysBreak OutFinland Author:Frans de Waal
“My biggest difference with our film and those kinds of science fiction films is that they are going from one special effect set piece to the next, what we were doing was more of a character study. And I think that is the freedom that you get by doing an Indie film. You can only really do that with a lower budget. So I understand where the conflict is between those two priorities.” ThinkingKindTwoCharacterFilmNextDifferencesFictionStudyPiecesSpecialEffectsConflictScience FictionPrioritiesBudgetsSpecial EffectsIndie Films Author:Duncan Jones

“When there are conflicts of observation, when experiments cannot be replicated, scientists may then retreat to a study of the various specific observations so as to explain the conflict, in the course of which they would make use of the concept of observation, or of some specification of that concept.” MayUseCoursesStudyConflictConceptsScientistVariousExperimentsObservationRetreatSpecifications Author:Ernest Sosa
“A 1998 study was done in Hebrew by an Israeli scholar, Yosef Grodzinsky, and the English translation of the title is Good Human Material. That's what they wanted sent to Palestine for colonization and for the eventual conflict that took place some years later. These policies were somewhat complementary to the U.S. policy of pressuring England to allow Jews to go to Palestine, but not allowing them here. The British politician Ernest Bevin was quite bitter about it, asking, "if you want to save the Jews, why send them to Palestine when you don't admit them?"” IfsWantYearsHumansDoneWantedStudyPolicyMaterialsPoliticianConflictEnglandAskingJewBritishBitterTitlesAllowingScholarPalestineTranslationsIsraeliHebrewColonizationComplementary Author:Noam Chomsky

“The Russians have been flying long duration crews since the early '70's. And in the early days, they've ended at least two missions early because of conflicts within the crew. So, they learned early on the importance of studying this and making sure you put the right crew together. Since we began our work together on the International Space station with the Russians in the early 2000's, NASA has started to learn the importance of this kind of work. And so, I think it's important work and we are not fully onboard and recognize it as important.” ThinkingKindLongImportantTogetherStudyConflictImportanceFlyingWorking TogetherNasa Author:Leroy Chiao
“There are new studies showing that young men and men with more progressive views of what a father should be - which is not just a helper and fun parent, but actually a partner - are beginning to feel more work-life conflict than mothers are. They're trying to do what women have been doing for 30 years, and they're having a very stressful time of it - a harder time at work because we still expect men to be on 24-7, working 40 years straight.” MenTryingMotherFatherFunParentStudyConflictProgressiveStressful Author:Brigid Schulte
“Is the Church inimical to science? Growing up as a Catholic and a scientist - I don't see it. One truth is revealed truth, the other is scientific truth. If you really believe that creation is good, there can be no harm in studying science. The more we learn about creation - the way it emerged - it just adds to the glory of God. Personally, I've never seen a conflict.” IfsWayBelieveChurchGrowing UpStudyGrowingAtheismCreationTruth IsConflictGloryScientistCatholicAddHarmGlory Of GodScientific Truth Author:Joseph Murray
