The following arguments have been based on the content: ( 1 ) It is perceived to be theologically incompatible with Paul's other epistles: elsewhere Paul attributed Jesus's death to the " rulers of this age " ( 1 Cor 2: 8 ) rather than to the Jews, and elsewhere Paul writes that the Jews have not been abandoned by God for " all Israel will be saved " ( Rom 11: 26 ); According to 1 Thes 1: 10, the wrath of God is still to come, it is not something that has already shown itself ( 2 ) There were no extensive historical persecutions of Christians by Jews in Palestine prior to the first Jewish war ( 3 ) The use of the concept of imitation in 1 Thes.

According to traditional scholarly consensus, Paul authored the Epistle to the Romans.

According to Irenaeus, a 2nd century Church Father, the church at Rome was founded directly by the apostles Peter and Paul.

According to Linehan, Father Ted was a character created by Mathews for Paul Woodfull, when the three men performed together as The Joshua Trio on the comedy circuit in Ireland.

According to Acts of the Apostles, Paul founded the church in Corinth ( Acts 18: 1 – 17 ), then spent approximately three years in Ephesus ( Acts 19: 8, 19: 10, 20: 31 ).

According to Paul Williams, " the deep-rooted misconception concerning an unfailing, ubiquitous fierce criticism of the Lesser Vehicle by the is not supported by our texts.

According to Paul VI, married love takes its origin from God, who " is love ", and from this basic dignity, he defines his position:

According to George Weigel's biography of John Paul II, Paul VI named Archbishop Karol Wojtyła ( later Pope John Paul II ) to the commission.

According to John L. Allen, Jr., " In addition, three decades of bishops ’ appointments by John Paul II and Benedict XVI, both unambiguously committed to “ Humanae Vitae ,” mean that senior leaders in Catholicism these days are far less inclined than they were in 1968 to distance themselves from the ban on birth control, or to soft-pedal it.

" According to Allen "... it is reasonable to assume that John Paul I would not have insisted upon the negative judgment in Humanae Vitae as aggressively and publicly as John Paul II did, and probably would not have treated it as a quasi-infallible teaching.

According to Church tradition, it was under Nero's persecution that Peter and Paul were each martyred in Rome.

According to the Big Bang model, the Universe expanded from an extremely dense and hot state and continues to expand today.

According to the Big Bang theory, the Universe was once in an extremely hot and dense state which expanded rapidly.

According to the most recent measurements and observations, the Big Bang occurred approximately 13. 75 billion years ago, which is thus considered the age of the Universe.

According to observations of structures larger than solar systems, as well as Big Bang cosmology interpreted under the Friedmann equations and the FLRW metric, dark matter accounts for 23 % of the mass-energy content of the observable universe.

According to current scientific theory, the cosmos began 13. 7 billion years ago short scale in the Big Bang.

According to the Records of the Grand Historian, after the collapse of the Qin Dynasty the hegemon Xiang Yu appointed Liu Bang as prince of the small fief of Hanzhong.

According to general relativity, the initial state of the universe, at the beginning of the Big Bang, was a singularity.

According to the theory of cosmic inflation and its founder, Alan Guth, if it is assumed that inflation began about 10 < sup >− 37 </ sup > seconds after the Big Bang, then with the plausible assumption that the size of the universe at this time was approximately equal to the speed of light times its age, that would suggest that at present the entire universe's size is at least 10 < sup > 23 </ sup > times larger than the size of the observable universe.

According to the models of inflation and current observations of the accelerating universe, the concordance models of physical cosmology are converging on a consistent model where our universe was best described as a de Sitter universe at about a time seconds after the fiducial Big Bang singularity, and far into the future.

According to the Big Bang theory, the universe cooled from an initial hot, dense state triggering a series of phase transitions much like what happens in condensed-matter systems.

According to some oscillatory universe theorists, the Big Bang was simply the beginning of a period of expansion that followed a period of contraction.

According to the Records of the Grand Historian, Qin Shi Huang worshiped Chiyou as the God of War, and Liu Bang worshiped at Chi You's shrine before his decisive battle against Xiang Yu.

According to the Big Bang model, matter decoupled from the cosmic background radiation ( CBR ) at a temperature of roughly 3, 000 kelvin, corresponding to an average kinetic energy of / () =.

According to the Big Bang model, as the density of the universe dropped while it expanded, it eventually reached a point where photons in the " mix " of particles were no longer immediately impacting matter ; they " decoupled " from the plasma and spread out into the universe as a burst of light.

According to Iggy Pop's autobiography, I Need More, he wrote " Bang Bang " as Arista Records wanted a single and he promised them a commercial album.

According to the Hartle-Hawking proposal, the universe has no origin as we would understand it: the universe was a singularity in both space and time, pre-Big Bang.

According to these models, our present universe emerged from an extremely dense high-temperature state ( the Big Bang )

According to Jirattikorn, the film attempts to provide a national hero connected to the current monarchical dynasty, in contrast to other Thai films presenting events of the same era ( e. g. Bang Rajan ).

According to King Huai II's earlier promise, Liu Bang should become the " King of Guanzhong ", but Xiang Yu arrived in Guanzhong later and wrote a letter to King Huai II, asking the king to grant him the title instead.

According to the Big Bang theory, in the early universe, photons and fermions ( massive particles of matter ) would inter-convert freely.

( According to the Book of Han, Lady Bo returned to her previous occupation as a seamstress when on one occasion when Liu Bang, then the Prince of Han, saw her among the group of seamstresses, he made her one of his concubines.

According to the opening of the classical novel Fengshen Bang, he is the reincarnation of the first emperor of the Shang dynasty, Shang Tang.
