In theology, concupiscence refers to the orientation or inclination of human desire towards a partial good before any voluntary and conscious decision. It is derived from the Latin word concupiscentia. Thomas Aquinas believed there were two divisions of the sensory appetite or "sensuality": the concupiscible (pursuit/avoidance instincts) and the irascible (competition/aggression/defense instincts). With the former are associated the emotions of joy and sadness, love and hate, desire and repugnance; with the ...

In some forms of Western Christian belief, damnation to hell is the punishment of God for persons with unredeemed sin. Damnation can be a motivator for conversions to Christianity. One conception is of eternal suffocating heat, being taunted by demons for all eternity. (Actually, the Christian prophetic book of Revelation says that all demons will also be damned) Another conception, derived from the scripture about Gehenna ...

Many versions of La Llorona's origin exist. Some describe a beautiful young woman in Mexico or New Mexico, who married or was seduced by a local man, by whom she had several children. The woman is sometimes given a Christian name; Sofia, Laura, and María are sometimes used. The man leaves her, sometimes for another woman, sometimes for reasons of employment, and sometimes just to be away from La Llorona and her several children. At any rate, La Llorona chooses to murder her children, almost always by drowning, either to spare them a life of poverty, to free herself to seek another man, or for reven ...

Syntactic expletives are words that perform a syntactic role but contribute nothing to meaning. Expletive subjects are part of the grammar of many non-pro-drop languages such as English, whose clauses normally require overt provision of subject even when the subject can be pragmatically inferred. Consider this example: "It is important that you work hard for the exam." Following the eighteenth-century conception of pronoun, Bishop Robert Lowth objected that since it is a pronoun, it should have an antecedent. Since it cannot function like that in Latin, L ...

John Hick is a Christian philosopher best known for his advocacy of religious pluralism. Previously a traditional evangelical, he was pushed towards pluralism by the problem of reconciling God’s love with the facts of cultural and religious diversity. If, as Christianity has traditionally taught, faith in Christ is the only means of salvation, then those who have never heard the gospel are damned, abandoned by God to their eternal fate. This is the thought behind Theodore Drange's "argument from unbelief", and it is also the thought ...

The most direct analogue with the La Llorona story is that of the Greek Medea, who likewise murdered her children after being abandoned by Jason. Local Aztec folklore possibly influenced the legend; goddess Cihuacoatl or Coatlicue was said to have appeared shortly prior to the invasion of Mexico by Hernán Cortés, weeping for her lost children, an omen of the fall of the Aztec empire. La Llorona is also sometimes identified with La Malinche, the Native American woman who served as Cortés' interpreter and who some say betrayed Mexico ...

"Damnation" (or, more commonly, "damn", or "god damn") is widely used as a moderate profanity. Until around the mid-20th century damn was a more offensive term than it is today,and was frequently represented as "D--n," "D---," or abbreviated to just "D." The use of "damn" in Rhett Butler's parting line to Scarlett O'Hara in the film Gone with the Wind in 1939 captivated moviegoers. "Damn" is commonly nowadays known as a very mildly pr ...

Its Indo-European origin is usually said to be a root dap-, which appears in Latin and Greek words meaning "feast" and "expense". (The connection is that feasts tend to be expensive.) In Latin this root provided a theorized early Latin noun *dapnom, which became Classical Latin damnum = "damage" or "expense". But there is a Vedic Sanskrit root dabh or dambh = "harm". The word damnum had not as yet got exclusively religious overtones. From it in English came "condemn"; "damnified" (an obsolete ...

In sentences such as "You'd better pray for a bloody miracle if you want to avoid bankruptcy." "That was a bloody good meal." "The bloody policeman tailed me all the way home." "I hope he bloody chokes on his pretzels." bloody contributes nothing to the meaning. Rather, it suggests the strength of feeling (usually anger or irritation, but often admiration, etc.) of the speaker. In having no meaning, it resembles the syntactic expletives discussed ...
