There can be no doubt that God makes decisions a propos of the disjunctive multiplicity of eternal objects; the difficulty is to establish in precisely what sense these divine decisions are distinguishable
from the choices and calculations made by the Leibnizian deity Whitehead's dilemma seems to be this: on the
one hand, the principle of classification is to be challenged by positing the primordiality of a world of eternal objects that knows «no exclusions, expressive in logical terms»; on the other hand, positing pure potentiality as a «boundless and unstructured infinity» (IWM 252) lacking all logical order would seem to be precisely that conceptual move which renders it «inefficacious» or «
irrelevant.»

Thus in saying 14, Jesus rejects fasting, prayer and almsgiving, and then says, «if you go into any land and wander in the regions, if they receive you, eat what is set before you, heal the sick among them; for what goes into your mouth will not defile you...» The «land» and the «regions» are Thomas's substitute for the «city» of Luke 10:8, a verse

one are derived; «heal the sick among them» comes
from Luke 10:9, though in Thomas it is quite
irrelevant to the subject of dietary laws, with which the rest of the saying is concerned (cf. Matt.

irrelevant.9 It is essential that we rediscover the feminine, Marian dimension of the Church because viewing the Church as a mere organisational or institutional entity not only impoverishes her
from within but also «severely diminishes her authentic religious appeal and misleads women who are seeking a legitimate and fruitful role».10 The loss of this feminine dimension of the Church gives rise to a false feminism in the Church -
one which expresses itself in appeals for the ordination of woman.

Adhering to these traditional concepts the US Department of Agriculture has concluded that diets, which reduce calories, will result in effective weight loss independent of the macronutrient composition, which is considered less important, even
irrelevant.14 In contrast with these views, the majority of ad - libitum studies demonstrate that subjects who follow a low - carbohydrate diet lose more weight during the first 3 — 6 months compared with those who follow balanced diets.15, 16, 17
One hypothesis is that the use of energy
from proteins in VLCKD is an «expensive» process for the body and so can lead to a «waste of calories», and therefore increased weight loss compared with other «less - expensive» diets.13, 18, 19 The average human body requires 60 — 65 g of glucose per day, and during the first phase of a diet very low in carbohydrates this is partially (16 %) obtained
from glycerol, with the major part derived via gluconeogenesis
from proteins of either dietary or tissue origin.12 The energy cost of gluconeogenesis has been confirmed in several studies7 and it has been calculated at ∼ 400 — 600 Kcal / day (due to both endogenous and food source proteins.18 Despite this, there is no direct experimental evidence to support this intriguing hypothesis; on the contrary, a recent study reported that there were no changes in resting energy expenditure after a VLCKD.20 A simpler, perhaps more likely, explanation for improved weight loss is a possible appetite - suppressant action of ketosis.
