Cerebral faith and faith in
This article investigated the paradox between church response to apartheid and resulting action at the local level in the South African churches of European origin from the perspective of the Presbyterian Church of South(ern) Africa (PCSA). It indicated that this discrepancy arose between the reflections (cerebral faith) at the highest levels of church councils, which operated in an intermittent manner and at a distance, compared with the responses (praxis as faith in action) of local church members who lived at the coalface of the struggle and sought to witness in a society dominated by racism, where the tension between faith and politics was most evident. The primary focus was on two inter-racial congregations, one of the PCSA, the other a united congregation in which the PCSA participated. This study used primary and secondary sources. The theoretical framework of the article was Thomas Groome’s approach of shared praxis.ContributionThis article contributed to the history of the apartheid era in ecclesiastical contexts. It demonstrated the anomalies that arose within different constituencies within churches of European origin by investigating the situation in one particular denomination. This was a discussion of the relationship of faith and politics in the private and public domains, which takes account of developments within a shared praxis approach.

Neuroscience and Sartre's Account of Bad Faith
The article explores the possibility that studies in cerebral commissurotomy (severing of the corpus callosum) may shed some light on Jean-Paul Sartre's account of bad faith. I examine this issue from both a descriptive and an explanatory point of view. My conclusion is that Sartre and various neuroscientists seem generally to agree on the description of self-deception, but they substantially disagree on how the phenomenon is to be explained. I argue that Sartre's account does not seem fully adequate, while the neuroscientific approach may have explanatory potential if certain conceptual issues are resolved. I also argue that, carefully delimited, the neuroscientific stance complements Sartre's approach.
Ice cream evoked headaches (ICE-H) study: randomised trial of accelerated versus cautious ice cream eating regimen
Cold stimulus headache, also known as ice cream headache, is a common problem and is reported to occur in about a third of a randomly selected population. 1 It was further suggested that the ice cream headache could be induced only in hot weather. 2 A Medline search from 1966 to August 2002 with the MeSH terms and combination operators \"ice cream,\" \"headache,\" and \"randomized controlled trial\" to identify English language trials in this area produced no results. Characteristic Cautious eating group (n=72) Accelerated eating group (n=73) Female 42 (58) 27 (37) Mean (SD) age (years) 12.7 (0.8) 12.7 (0.8) Lifetime prevalence of ice cream headaches 58 (81) 57 (78) Regular headaches (weekly) 18 (25) 19 (26) Twenty (27%) of 73 students in the accelerated eating group reported ice cream headache compared with 9 (13%) of 72 students in the cautious eating group (relative risk 2.2 (95% confidence interval 1.03 to 4.94), number needed to harm 6.71 (3.79 to 200.48)).
Religion and Natasha McDonald
Bennion recalls her interview with Natasha McDonald, a 24-year-old woman having a cerebral palsy but with such great faith to God. McDonald activated by repeatedly pressing the right side of her head against a switch when she interviewed her with a professional videographer in July 2004 in her home in Alberta. Here, she narrates the story behind McDonald's adoption, her education and her experienced of most LDS activities and rituals, including meetings, activities, baptism, temple endowment, and work for the dead. Among other things, she reveals that her experience with the McDonald family has evoked her many considerations about religion and disability.
Faith in Science
On May 6, 2007, at the first Republican debate of the 2008 presidential race, the Republican presidential hopefuls were all asked to raise their hand if they did not believe in the theory of evolution. Senator Sam Brownback, Congressman Tom Tancredo, and Governor Mike Huckabee, three important members of the legislative and executive branches of government, all raised their hands. A few days later, in light of the outsized reaction to a moment in the debate that lasted only a few seconds, Sam Brownback published a clarification in the form of an op-ed piece in the New York Times.
