According to Christian faith, God is love. So when we think about God, we don't actually imagine a bearded old man sitting on a cloud watching over us. God doesn't have a form because it is an abstract idea which encompasses beautiful and good feelings such as love, empathy, happiness, caring, compassion, etc. So I guess you could say that in a way, by experiencing such feelings, we are closer to God because God is within all of us.

Sixty percent of land in Brazil consist o forest and the share of Arable land is 32 percent. It is also the most bio diverse countries in the world. The bulk of the Brazilian forest lies in the Amazon Basin. But the country is witnessing the loss of forest cover in the past few years. Especially after the 1970's it has lost 19 percent of its forest cover area, due to the construction of Trans- Amazonian highway and the growing population in the Amazon basin.
Land use pattern in Brazil: 32 percent of the land is Arable Land. 60 percent is Forest Land and 5.2 percent of the land is used for other activities. Out of 32 percent of Arable land, less than one percent is used for growing permanent crops, while 23 percent is permanent pasture.
Hernan Cortes (1485-1547) was a Spanish colonizer and conqueror, who leaded the conquest of the Mexican territories, that started in 1519 with the occupation of Veracruz. The tales about the sacking of the Mexican capital, Tenochtitlan, are still legendary nowadays.
After the takeover of Veracruz, Cortes gave the order of sinking his own ships (it was thought they were burnt, but nowadays that hypothesis is being questioned). Anyway, he destroyed his ships on purpouse to force his men to go forward and conquer the New World, both in the militar and spiritual (goal of spreading the Christian religion) dimensions.
- Agreement with his decision: of course it is an incredibly effective manner of ensuring that his men would be motivated to conquer the territory, mainly because they did not have an alternative choice. They had to become rulers there or be lost in the middle of unknown lands. It can be claimed how the ultimate goal justifies the means.
- Disagreement with the decision: it can be argued how unethical is that he prevented his men from deciding if they wanted to participate or not on the mission. He eliminated the choice.
