The purpose of this work is to present a history of the Church of the Firstborn of the Fulness of Times, including information relative to its origin that will lead to a better understanding of that history.

Durante a gravidez, a gestante experiencia sentimentos intensos acerca de si e do bebê. Também constrói expectativas relacionadas à criança. Estes sentimentos e expectativas contribuem para a relação que ela estabelece com seu bebê. Contudo, diferente de gestantes primíparas, este processo pode apresentar algumas particularidades para secundíparas, tendo em vista sua experiência anterior com o filho primogênito. Neste sentido, este estudo investigou as eventuais diferenças nas expectativas e sentimentos de gestantes primíparas e secundíparas acerca de seu bebê. Foi realizado um estudo de caso coletivo, envolvendo sete primíparas e sete secundíparas que estavam no terceiro trimestre de gravidez. As gestantes responderam a uma entrevista estruturada que investigava seus sentimentos e expectativas acerca do bebê. Uma análise de conteúdo qualitativa evidenciou mais semelhanças do que diferenças entre os grupos. Dentre as diferenças, pode-se destacar que, enquanto primíparas tenderam a basear suas expectativas e sentimentos na idéia de um bebê ideal, no caso de secundíparas, estas foram mediadas pela existência do primogênito. Assim, expectativas e sentimentos de secundíparas contribuíram para que delineassem e configurassem a identidade do bebê, diferenciando-o do primogênito; para que reformulassem seu papel de mãe e iniciassem a integração do segundo filho no sistema familiar. Estes dados sugerem a possibilidade de intervenção precoce na presença de problemas decorrentes da gestação de um segundo filho. / During the pregnancy, the pregnant live deeply intense feelings concerning herself and the baby. Also she constructs expectations related to the child. These feelings and expectations contribute for the relation that she establishes with her baby. However, different of primiparous pregnants, this process can present some particularities for secundiparous, in view of their previous experience with the firstborn son. In this direction, this study investigated the eventual differences in the primiparous and secundiparous pregnant’s expectations and feelings concerning their babies. A study of collective case was carried through, involving seven primiparous and seven secundiparous that they were in the third trimester of pregnancy. The pregnant had answered to a structuralized interview that investigated their feelings and expectations concerning the baby. A qualitative content analysis evidenced more similarities than differences between the groups. Amongst the differences, it can be distinguished that, while primiparous had tended to base their expectations and feelings in the idea of an ideal baby, in the secundiparous case, these expectations and feelings had been mediated by the firstborn existence. Thus the secundiparaous expectations and feelings had contributed so that they delineated and configured the identity of the baby, differentiating him of the firstborn; so that they reformulated their mother role and they initiated the integration of the second child in the familiar system. These data suggest the possibility of early intervention in front of the current problems of a second child gestation.

Since the issuance of the Manifesto by President Wilford Woodruff on September 25, 1890, discontinuing the practice of plural marriage by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, intensive efforts have been made by dissenters to show that authority to practice polygamy has secretly continued to the present day. Claiming that the Church departed from its original teachings when it discontinued the practice of plural marriage and that the Manifesto was adopted merely as an act of appeasement, "fundamentalists" have attempted to show that the doctrine of plural marriage was revealed to the Latter-day Saints as an irrevocable decree, essential to the highest exaltation in the world to come. They further claim that since the time of Joseph Smith a special "higher priesthood" organization has secretly functioned independent of the Latter-day Saint Church through which authority to solemnize plural marriages has continued to the present day. Asserting that the practice of plural marriage is still a "vital part of the religion of the Latter-day Saints," and that men are commanded to obey God's laws "in total disregard of the laws of man which might conflict therewith." "Fundamentalists" conclude that it is not within the power of the Latter-day Saint Church or the Federal or State Government to prohibit plural marriages.A consideration of this position indicates that only after a unique interpretation of certain carefully selected excerpts from Latter-day Saint Church history and in some instances a complete fabrication of events, can evidence be found for the contention that the practice of plural marriage is still a "vital part of the religion of the Latter-day Saints."On the other hand, a review of the history and doctrine of the Church indicates, that no provisions were made for a succession of authority from Joseph Smith independent of the present Latter-day Saint Church leadership; that the practice of plural marriage was not dogmatically regarded as an irrevocable decree or an essential to the highest exaltation regardless of circumstances; and that the suspension of the practice of plural marriage was accomplished by the same authority by which the practice was introduced.

The thesis "Sibling Constellation Effects on Learning and Career Aspirations of Pupils" is aimed at the description of a relationship between birth order and personality development. It also deals with the general characteristics of sibling constellation and its historical development. It points out the importance of sibling constellation in human life and presents the personality description with regard to birth order in relation to parents, siblings, peers, education and occupation. The thesis also involves the research results of birth order effects on learning and career specialization of grammar school pupils. This main part is enriched with the information about the aspiration rate of secondary school and university students. The data were obtained through three similar questionnaires distributed on above-mentioned educational levels during February and March 2012.
