Is it possible to do theology without philosophical presuppositions? by D. F. M. Strauss

“… Particularly in connection with the doctrine of God the unavoidability of philosophical presuppositions becomes apparent. The uncritical theological practice to speak about a concept of God is in need of the epistemological distinction between concept and idea, which is philosophical in nature. …”

Study on the mechanical properties of unloaded damage sandstone under dry-wet and freeze-thaw cycling conditions. by Wenrui Wang, Xingzhou Chen, Lili Chen, Sheng Gong, Zhenkun Su

“…As the number of these environmental cycles increases, a descending trend becomes apparent in the stress-strain curve profile. This shift coincides with an increase in pore compaction strain as well as plastic strain values; meanwhile, peak strength experiences a sharp decline initially but subsequently moderates to more gradual reductions.; (2) The elastic modulus, cohesion, and friction angle all show a similar trend of attenuation, with the most severe degradation occurring after the first cycle and then gradually diminishing, particularly with the elastic modulus; (3) The uniaxial failure of the unloaded damaged samples is primarily brittle, with spalling and buckling becoming more pronounced with increasing cycles, while triaxial failure exhibits certain plastic characteristics that develop more with further cycling. …”

Introducing the Condor Array Telescope. V. Deep Broad- and Narrowband Imaging Observations of the M81 Group by Kenneth M. Lanzetta, Stefan Gromoll, Michael M. Shara, David Valls-Gabaud, Frederick M. Walter, John K. Webb

“…The difference images exhibit extensive extended structures of ionized gas in the direction of the M81 Group, from known galaxies of the M81 Group, clouds of gas, filamentary structures, and apparent or possible bubbles or shells. Specifically, the difference images show a remarkable filament known as the “Ursa Major Arc;” a remarkable network of criss-crossed filaments between M81 and NGC 2976, some of which intersect and overlap the Ursa Major Arc; and details of a “giant shell of ionized gas.”…”

Sterol‐Targeted Laboratory Evolution Allows the Isolation of Thermotolerant and Respiratory‐Competent Clones of the Industrial Yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae by Isabel‐Elena Sánchez‐Adriá, Jose A. Prieto, Gemma Sanmartín, Miguel Morard, Estéfani García‐Ríos, Francisco Estruch, Francisca Randez‐Gil

“…CRISPR‐Cas9 experiments confirmed the role of the pdr1F749S mutation in the FCNZ‐tolerance phenotype and demonstrated that Mpm1 is required for growth at high temperatures. However, no apparent heat tolerance benefit was observed from single or combined mutations in these genes, supporting the hypothesis that thermotolerance is mediated by multiple interacting mechanisms. …”

Understanding Indigenous knowledge of conservation and stewardship before implementing co-production with Western methodologies in resource management by Stafford Maracle, Jennifer Maracle, Stephen Lougheed

“… In the face of an increasing global human popula­tion and multiple anthropogenic environmental stressors including climate change, the limitations of relying solely on Western science and ap­proaches to mitigating impacts, conserving bio­diversity, and managing resources sustainably is apparent. Many Indigenous Peoples have lived sus­tainably as part of their respective environments for millennia, passing conservation and manage­ment practices down generations despite coloniza­tion and genocide. …”
