Not My Church: Confessional Living In An All-Consuming World, Cody Macmillan
Not My Church: Confessional Living In An All-Consuming World, Cody Macmillan
Grapho : Concordia Seminary Student Journal
What I hope to offer in the following pages is a vision for the Church that is not our own in a world that is increasingly foreign to us. In a discussion of the Scriptures and the Sacraments, I would like to present three ways in which this Church is distinctly alien in nature. She presents alien standards, alien sentiment, and alien strength to which we are called to subscribe, submit, and surrender. In presenting the alien nature of this church, I offer points of contrast and comparison with the culture to which we are tempted to succumb. These comparisons …

Mythcon 52 - The Mythic, The Fantastic, And The Alien, The Mythopoeic Society
Mythcon Programs
To work toward being stewards of a more sustainable world, the Mythcon 52 Organizing Committee has chosen to promote digital materials and print only a few hard copy versions of our program book that will be for sale during the conference. Paper, ink, printing press machinery, and other resources involved in producing materials we can hold in our hands damage the world around us. As much as we love physical items for their representations of experiences, our Mythcon 52 organizers think many of the authors we love and admire would appreciate our desire to reduce our environmental impact on the …
Rising Up Without Pushing Down: Lessons Learned From The Suffragettes' Anti-Immigrant Rhetoric, Kit Johnson
Rising Up Without Pushing Down: Lessons Learned From The Suffragettes' Anti-Immigrant Rhetoric, Kit Johnson
St. John's Law Review
(Excerpt)
American suffragist Elizabeth Cady Stanton famously wrote: “We hold these truths to be self-evident; that all men and women are created equal.” Yet when suffragettes spoke of “all” men and women, they were clear about exceptions. Immigrants did not qualify. Indeed, in her own address at the First Women’s Rights Convention, held in Seneca Falls, New York, in July 1848, Stanton said that “to have . . . ignorant foreigners . . . fully recognized, while we ourselves are thrust out from all the rights that belong to citizens, it is too grossly insulting to the dignity of woman …
A Call For Ethical And Responsible Treatment Of Invasive Species By Recreational Anglers, Kevin A. Adeli
A Call For Ethical And Responsible Treatment Of Invasive Species By Recreational Anglers, Kevin A. Adeli
Human–Wildlife Interactions
Invasive species pose a prominent threat to global biodiversity, with aquatic ecosystems being particularly susceptible. In an effort to limit the spread of aquatic invasive species, numerous public awareness programs have been launched, and several regions have enacted “must-kill” angling regulations, which prohibit the live release of invasive fish species when captured. Many education programs, however, demonize invasive species and lack any instruction for humane euthanasia. This unbalanced approach has translated into widespread mistreatment of invasive species among recreational anglers. This piece addresses these concerns by discussing their significance and providing recommendations for how education programs can adopt a more …
A Christian Response To Modern Extraterrestrialism, Chase Perry Cakmis
A Christian Response To Modern Extraterrestrialism, Chase Perry Cakmis
Masters Theses
Extraterrestrial beliefs (ET-ism) have become a cultural craze in contemporary times, infatuating many who encounter these ideas. ET-ism has influenced all forms of media, science, and even religion. With ET-ism permeating all facets of society, Christians need to know how to approach this craze and the ideas that sprout from it. Much research has been conducted on this subject both on the individual and scientific level, thrusting these beliefs from fringe views believed only by the paranoid into widely accepted ideas even within the scientific community. While Christian circles have discussed this subject in the past, it is becoming a …

Does It Really Matter?: Making The Case For A Materiality Requirement In False Claims To U.S. Citizenship Under The Immigration And Nationality Act, Elizabeth Montano, Edward F. Ramos
Does It Really Matter?: Making The Case For A Materiality Requirement In False Claims To U.S. Citizenship Under The Immigration And Nationality Act, Elizabeth Montano, Edward F. Ramos
University of Miami Law Review
Materiality plays an important role in limiting the reach of laws that penalize misrepresentations. Laws that include no materiality element punish any covered misrepresentation regardless of its relevance—like lying about hair color on a loan application. By contrast, laws that include a materiality element withhold punishment for immaterial misrepresentations of that kind—in other words, misrepresentations that have no tendency to affect the ultimate decision.
Our immigration laws make it a deportable offense for a noncitizen to “falsely represent” herself as a U.S. citizen for a purpose or benefit under the law. Although this law has been on the books for …

Dietary Overlap Between Native And Exotic Fishes Revealed Through Gut Content Analysis At Head Baloki, Punjab, Pakistan, Muhammad Imran, Abdul Majid Khan, Muhammad Tahir Waseem
Journal of Bioresource Management
An imminent threat to indigenous freshwater ichthyofauna is the introduction of alien fishes that can alter the behavior, population dynamics and native community structure. Thus, it is necessary to understand their feeding behaviour to avoid any unwanted incalculable loss. At sampling site, Head Baloki feeding habits both of native (L. calbasu, C. catla, L. rohita and C. mrigala) and alien (H. nobilis, H. molitrix, C. carpio, C. idella, C. auratus, O. aureus, O. niloticus and O. mozambicus …

Prisoners In The Face Of Gladiators: Providing A Sword And Shield To Aliens In Removal Proceedings Through Court-Appointed Counsel, Kevin Gardner
Prisoners In The Face Of Gladiators: Providing A Sword And Shield To Aliens In Removal Proceedings Through Court-Appointed Counsel, Kevin Gardner
Akron Law Review
To an outside observer, immigration courts may appear identical to criminal courts. However, there is one critical distinction. In criminal court, defendants have a well-established right to court-appointed counsel if they cannot afford a lawyer. But there is no such right for aliens with removal orders. If they cannot afford an attorney, or if they do not have the good fortune to find a pro bono attorney, they must fight their case alone against an experienced government attorney. This is troubling because the consequences of an unjust removal order can be horrific: loss of employment, permanent separation from loved ones, …

Marty Pants: Do Not Open!, Natalie Hatch
Marty Pants: Do Not Open!, Natalie Hatch
Children's Book and Media Review
Marty is an artist and a noticer. He notices things that others don’t. Like that there’s something wrong with their teacher, Mr. McPhee and he’s making it more a more obvious. This week’s spelling words were: annihilate, protagonist, imminent, absurd, feeble, assumption, deprive, terminate, exasperate, industrious, and wisdom. Worse still, the new girl, Analie. keeps catching him at the worst possible times. Whenever he does something embarrassing, she’s somehow there. Between trying to save the world from an alien invasion that no one believes in and summoning the courage to speak a full sentence to Analie, Marty is also trying …
Japan: An Alien Ally, John E. Bex
Japan: An Alien Ally, John E. Bex
Naval War College Review
Most Americans fed grateful in some degree to the part that Japan has played since World War II as our loyal ally. In comparison with De Gaulle's France or even Britain, the Japanese have shown themselves to be remarkably content to follow our leas in foreign affairs, despite the fact that they were so recently our enemy.
Exploring What It Is Like To Be An Undocumented Alien In Seek Of Healthcare, Eliany C. Torrez Pon
Exploring What It Is Like To Be An Undocumented Alien In Seek Of Healthcare, Eliany C. Torrez Pon
Honors Undergraduate Theses
Currently, there are about 11.8 million undocumented aliens in the United States who are not eligible for public insurance or any type of private coverage obtained through the American Health Care Act of 2017. This creates barriers to healthcare for this large population and has negative implications for the healthcare system. Despite the availability of clinics and low-cost healthcare, this group tends to underuse resources or seek healthcare for emergencies only which leads to increased cost totaling approximately $1.1 billion a year. The goal of this qualitative study is to better understand what it is like to be an undocumented …

Crimmigration: The Missing Piece Of Criminal Justice Reform, Yolanda Vazquez
University of Richmond Law Review
This article discusses the impact that the incorporation of migration enforcement has had on the criminal justice system and the way in which it has exacerbated pre-existing problems within it. Part I discusses the drastic expansion of the criminal justice system over the last forty years and the fiscal and moral costs it has had. Part II discusses how crimmigration has impacted the criminal justice system, its laws, policies, and practices during the last thirty years. Part III discusses the rise of the Smart on Crime movement and the goals of the criminal justice reform efforts to combat its detrimental …
The Battle Of Birthright Citizenship, Joshua White
The Battle Of Birthright Citizenship, Joshua White
Brigham Young University Prelaw Review
This article examines the legal case behind denying birthright citizenship to the children of illegal aliens born on U.S. territory and thereby correcting the present interpretation of the Citizenship Clause. Currently, children of illegal aliens born on U.S. territory are automatically granted citizenship jus soli. This removes the sovereignty of the American citizen by supplanting the citizen with an illegal alien in determining who can become citizens of the United States. To resolve this problem, Congress must enact legislation specifically restricting birthright citizenship from children of illegal aliens. While other articles focus on the morality of accepting refugees or illegal …

The Indo-Pacific Brachyuran Charybdis (Gonioinfradens) Paucidentatus (A. Milne-Edwards, 1861) (Brachyura, Portunidae) In The Cyclades, Aegean Sea, Gerasimos Kondylatos, Thodoros Kampouris, Vasilis Kouloumperis, Maria Corsini Foka
Turkish Journal of Zoology
The occurrence of the alien Charybdis (Gonioinfradens) paucidentatus is reported from Santorini Island after repeated underwater surveys carried out in 2014-2015. The findings constitute the first record of an Indo-Pacific brachyuran in the south-central Aegean Sea, showing the successful expansion of this portunid recently introduced into the eastern Mediterranean Sea.
Crimmigration: The Missing Piece Of Criminal Justice Reform, Yolanda Vazquez
Crimmigration: The Missing Piece Of Criminal Justice Reform, Yolanda Vazquez
Faculty Articles and Other Publications
Over the last decade, a new push for criminal justice reform has taken hold. While the moral and fiscal costs have been exorbitant over the last forty years, failing state budgets and bipartisan recognition of the “broken” system have finally caused legislatures, politicians, and advocates to reassess the costs and benefits of the criminal justice system. Breaking the “tough on crime/soft on crime” binary, the “smart on crime” motto has become a helpful tool in reform efforts aimed at reducing the number of individuals incarcerated and ensuring its fairness, regardless of race and socioeconomic status. Little attention, however, has been …
I Want To Believe: Kant, The X Files, And Cosmopolitical Unity, Jeremy Knickerbocker
I Want To Believe: Kant, The X Files, And Cosmopolitical Unity, Jeremy Knickerbocker
Cinesthesia
Kant’s final chapter of Anthropology from a Pragmatic Point of View, puts forth certain observations concerning the characteristics of human beings. In order for these observations to have rational validity as a proposed ‘human nature,’ however, Kant admits that it is necessary to compare between humans and another species of rational animal. Thus in an effort not to succumb to a naively anthropocentric thesis of nature, Kant still falls victim to his own anthropocentric privileging of rationality as a strictly human capacity—at least terrestrially speaking. While Kant fails to recognize any other earthly species as a rational animal, he nevertheless …

Opinion The “Non-Native” Enigma, Danny Caudill, Gretchen Caudill
Opinion The “Non-Native” Enigma, Danny Caudill, Gretchen Caudill
Human–Wildlife Interactions
Non-native species have been introduced to ecosystems throughout the world, and in some instances, have degraded the invaded system. Consequently, the distinction between native and non-native species has become an integral component of conservation planning. Recently however, the conservation value of the distinction has been questioned. We examine how the native versus non-native dichotomy is intrinsically ambiguous, which therefore limits the conservation utility of the designation in and of itself. A large degree of uncertainty exists as to whether many species are or are not native. Measures outside the non-native dichotomy (e.g., impacts, evolutionary ecology, paleontology) could better inform conservation …

Sosa V. Alvarez-Machain And The Alien Tort Statute: How Wide Has The Door To Human Rights Litigation Been Left Open?, Carolyn A. D'Amore
Akron Law Review
This Note will explore the Alien Tort Statute from its origin in 1789 to the present interpretation of the Sosa Court. Part II will focus on the Framers’ language and intent, discuss the long lull in the use of the ATS and the impact of Erie R. Co. v. Tompkins, and examine a line of cases that reawakened the ATS in the 1980s. Part III explores the elements of the Court’s decision in Sosa v. Alvarez-Machain: the facts that gave rise to an ATS claim, the plurality’s denial of jurisdiction, its dicta regarding potential application of the ATS, and Justice …
