Группа из Вольфсбурга "Heavens gate" (поначалу называвшаяся "Carrion") была образована весной 1987 года. В нее вошли фронтмен Томас Реттке с вокалом а-ля Роб Халфорд, гитаристы Бонни Билски и Инго Миллек, ударник Торстен Мюллер и бас-гитарист Манни Джордан. Первая же демка, записанная этим составом достигла ушей лидера "Eloy" и владельца "Metromania publishing" Франка Борнеманна, и он взял парней под свою опеку. Летом 1987-го ушел Миллек, и на его место приняли Сашу Паэта. В октябре того же года группа получила контракт от "No remorse records" и отправилась в ганноверскую студию "Horus sound".
Продюсировать дебютную пластинку взялись Борнеманн и Томми Хагсен (работавший ранее с "Victory" и "Pretty maids"). "In control" вышел в свет в январе 1989-го, после чего "Heavens gate" попали на разогрев к "W.A.S.P." и потом совершили самостоятельное турне по Германии. По весне металлисты выдали мини-альбом "Open The Gate And Watch!" и вновь катались по родине, поддерживая "Lawdy".
Но все-таки наибольший интерес к творчеству коллектива был проявлен не немцами, а японцами, которые переиздали оба первых релиза "в одном флаконе". Многие японские журналы ввели данный альбом в двадцатку лучших, а ведущие металлические издания "Burrn!" и "Metal gear" снарядили своих журналистов для заполучения "Heavens gate" на гастроли по Стране Восходящего Солнца. В феврале 1992-го группа перебралась с "No remorse" на "Steamhammer/SPV", где с продюсером Чарли Бауэрфейндом был записан второй альбом, "Livin' in hysteria".
Пара треков, "Best Days Of My Life" и "We Got The Time", настолько понравилась немецким учителям, что они включили их в анти-наркоманское пособие "Gefahrliche Sehnsucht", прокрученное во всех германских школах. Тем временем европейское MTV засняло выступление "Heavens gate" в Мюнхене на пленку и начало порциями выдавать в эфир
В Японии же продолжались страдания по немецким металлерам – Реттке и Паэт дали там кучу интервью, а также сыграли несколько акустических версий своих композиций. Помимо этого специально для японского рынка был издан EP "More hysteria", а Реттке был признан одним из лучших вокалистов. В ноябре 1992-го вышла третья студийная работа коллектива, "Hell for sale", а затем появилась ее концертная версия "Live for sale", записанная конечно же в Токио. С 1994 года Паэт начал активно заниматься продюсированием, и это несколько замедлило развитие группы. К тому же в 1995-м ушел Манни Джордан, а новый басист Роберт Ханеке появился в составе только через полгода.
Обновленная команда записала альбом "Planet E", получивший, как и предыдущие релизы, положительные отзывы (правда, в основном все в той же Японии). На следующий год коллектив выпустил макси-сингл с акустическими треками "In the mood", на котором группа поэкспериментировала с фламенко, рэгги и фанком. Очередной полнометражник появился только в 1999-м, поскольку музыканты все чаще стали отвлекаться на посторонние дела.

The Future Of Religion Essay Research Paper
The future of religion In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep; and the Spirit of God was moving over the face of the waters. And God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light (Gen 1:1.5) then the LORD God formed man of dust from the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being. (Gen 2:7) This part from the bible is a typical example of what people used to believe before scientists came and gave logical explanations to the questions of mankind.It is possible, of course, to define a non-supernatural “religious” worldview that is not in conflict with science.
