Introduction

The question regarding the belief in God has become a pertinent issue within the societal framework. As such, the query on the belief in God has emanated from the extent and severity of evil within the societal framework. Thus, from an individual perspective, it is unreasonable not to believe in God despite the extent and severity of evil in the world due to the following three reasons I will examine in this paper.
As the first reason for the belief in God, it is imperative to acknowledge that evil is in existence due to our bad deeds. Theists argue ...

Exclusionary rule was premeditated to deter the misconduct of the police. Therefore, the exclusionary rule was a rule setup to facilitate the courts to exclude the introduction of incriminating evidence during the trial upon the proof that the evidence was obtained in breach of the constitutional provisions. This rule allows the defendants to defy the acceptability of evidence by establishing a pre-trial motion to overturn the evidence. If the court accepts the evidence to be brought in during the trial and the jury accepts to convict, the defendant has the option of challenging the decorum of the decision made ...

Hiroshige's Woodblock Print of a Sudden Shower over Ohashi and Atake, from the series One Hundred Famous Views of Edo

The ideals and concepts of Chinese art today rely on the foundation of the country’s rich history and more importantly on two early artists, Hokusai and Hiroshige. Each of these artists has a different perspective in the way they view art and its design. Hiroshige views art as a replica of the environs that surround an individual. For Hiroshige, art should be a virtual display of our surroundings, and it should capture in detail every aspect that comprises of the environment. In order to translate the feeling of reality resorts to employing different colors in his artwork. Hokusai ...

While it is true that transforming universities into “laptop campuses” may be clouded by a wider array of challenges, it is important to comprehend with the fact that such an initiative would confer more benefits than the proposed disadvantages.

Dawkins Richard compares religion to a virus, which spreads and infects the weak-minded people, making them produce aberrant behavior. Like a virus, religion begins as a by- product, and use human beings to propagate its spread. Religions are costly to those infected in them, just as the idea of viruses. Religions demand large amounts of time and money impose health risks and make people believe in things that are contradicting. Religions and viruses succeed by using threats and promises, which People accept and want to pass. This is evident in Michael Blume’s speech, “The reproductive advantage of religion.” ...

Bowling for Columbine is a 2002 documentary directed by Michael Moore. One thing which stands out from the movie is the use of persuasion. The documentary uses rhetorical strategies to persuade the audience to adopt the narrator’s opinion on the subject matter, and this is perfected through the use of archived information used along interviews. According to the narrator, Americans are trigger-happy people who use violence to solve their problems and this is evident when the narrator asks “why does America have so many guns and so much gun violence?”
At the beginning of the documentary, Moore receives ...

Peace on the other hand refers to the state of dwelling in a state or environment that is surrounded by tranquility and harmonized personal relations.

When one browses through the famous Western literatures, there is nothing that would compare to the short passages of Plato’s Divided Line, which appeared at the later part of the Republic. In his passages, Plato is suggesting that human knowledge has four kinds. It is the analogy that can be perceived from the passage wherein a line has been divided into different segments. The first thing that Plato did is to distinguish each segment into subject matters. Plato also considered comparing physical things known by human senses against the ones known to the intellect. After which, he subdivided ...

In 2011, Charles Wheelan returned to his alma mater at Dartmouth College to deliver the commencement speech. In his opening remarks, he promised the group of newly minted graduates that his would not be the typical speech, and went on to offer what he called “six things no commencement speaker has ever said.” His main point was that he wished that his six points had been given at his own commencement, back in 1988.
In my opinion, I believe that Wheelan's speech is insightful because it brings out the ultimate message about happiness which allows us to make the ...

Trifles, by Glaspell Susan, is a play that tries to draw the line between morally correct and incorrect actions. This it attempts through the choice of moral development schemas, which either seek to uphold morally correct principles which are applicable universally or those which are differentiated and reflective in nature, dynamic with changing sets of circumstances (Gilligan 39). In relation to morality as a theme in ‘Trifle’, the differentiating factor according to many is the choice between the psychological logic of people’s relationships and the universally accepted and politically correct formal logic of fairness.

Global warming is a real threat to the existence of man on earth. Despite concerns from a number of scientists about the adverse effects of global warming, many people still do not care greenhouse gas emissions.

Scientific data collected and analyzed by reputable scientists not only prove this, but also adduces evidence to show how it is happening. ...

The perception of God have changed over time as scholars continue delving more and more into the religious studies. This has led to a misconstruction of who God is as people continue making his identity so complex and hard to understand (King 409).

This alone gives the idea that God has a great value for the human beings. Al the other creations He made by word of His mouth. He ...

According to Shrivastava (2007), climate is defined as the average weather conditions of an area, experienced over a period of 30 years. This means that, if the weather conditions measured are found to be different between two or more successive eras, then a climate change results. The weather conditions that determine climate changes are humidity, rainfall, temperatures, clouds and strength of wind (Lynas, 2004). Thus, elements that can be measured to lay a claim to a change in climate are measures in; air and sea temperatures, phenology, tree rings, lake sediments, sea level, radioactive dating, ice coring, and levels ...

Oedipus Rex is one of the great masterpieces by the great dramatist Sophocles. Oedipus the King is a trilogy out of which Oedipus Rex is the first part. The fast pace of this play and the horrible fate of the mighty king grips the reader from the very first word of the play.

The two events that shaped European society between 16th and 19th centuries were the so called “Lutheran Reformation” started by Martin Luther and the “Scientific Revolution” initiated by Copernicus. Although both of them have profoundly changed the European way of thinking, it is possible to suggest that the Scientific Revolution had a stronger impact on the European society.
The magnitude of the effect of these two events can be evaluated based on several aspects. First of all, Scientific Revolution had an impact on all European countries, while the Reformation took place mainly in Central/Northern Europe. Secondly, although both had ...

‘Patriotism is the first defensive mechanism: a response to s perceived threat’. This statement was formulated in the epitome of many philosophical and theoretical works in France. These were works that revolved the many anticipated threats that ensued especially in the revolution times of the French territory.

At the turn of the new millennium, there were rumors that technology would collapse and the world would cease to exist in its current form. When this did not happen, a new theory emerged, based on the ancient Mayan calendars that claimed that the world, and life, would end in 2012. This doomsday prediction is based on claims of ancient manuscripts from all over the world. There is, however no scientific evidence that the world will end in 2012, or that the Mayans ever equated such relevance with the date, which is, in fact the last date on their ...

ENTHYMEME: Power can be equated with money, as those who have money possess power over others, and those in power have the ability to accumulate money.

In the face of pecuniary emulation, it is clear that power can be equated with money, and this power can manifest itself in many ways. Control is most certainly one of them – the ability to hold sway over other human beings and groups. Ownership is a very strong indicator of a leisure class. At first, ownership was defined by men owning women, females being a very strong, prevalent commodity ...

For a long period, Christians and atheists continue to maintain conflicting perceptive about the existence of God. Consequently, this issue triggers unending debates. The argument about the existence of God does not simply entail sensory proof. This is because universal perception is a determinant of what will be accepted as proof in the first place. In order to be certain in either side of argument, there is need for evidence. Theorists provide conflicting perspectives in support of atheism and existence of God. Christians derive their source of proof from biblical writings. However, these sources receive disqualification from atheists as ...

This essay will be one that intends to expose the nature of belief comparing philosophers such as Blaise Pascal, Soren Kierkegaard on justifications for a belief in god and the reasons we believe in general to attempt to answer a greater question of whether we can logically determine the existence of God. Pascal believes that arguments for god may be logical, but they prove above anything else that god doesn’t care and why would we want to believe in someone that doesn’t care?
“To one who has faith, no explanation is necessary. To one without faith, no ...

The debate for and against the legalization of Marijuana has been one of the most controversial issue in politics in the recent past. Nonetheless, it can be noted that the use of marijuana for medical purposes has existed for thousands of years in many countries (Randall 34). However, in many of these countries, the use of marijuana has been illegal and it can be noted that the substance has been decriminalized in most of them. Nevertheless, in the recent past, some of the countries have started to come up with various legislation that are permitting the usage of marijuana for medical purposes only (Stampp 64). For instance in the US, it has been highlighted that the usage of marijuana is illegal in most of the states under the federal controlled substances Act of 1970 (Randall, 87).

A survey of the human population will show that people exhibit different levels of creativity. People have different abilities to generate novel solutions to significant problems in the society (Duxbury 1). Different theories have been advanced to explain the origin and factors influencing creativity among individuals. For instance, proponents of psychoanalytic theories argue that creativity is the result of reactions to repressed emotions or difficult circumstances. The major tenet of this theory is that the creative process is inspired by the need to find solutions to difficult situations in life. On the other hand, psychoticism theories posit that all ...

In the short play written by Billy Goda entitled “No Crime”, he claimed that “a man is innocent until proven guilty by law”.

It is only the judge who conducted the trial of the accused, who can issue a ruling that the man is guilty (Goda 76).

Though modern western medicine cannot yet medically explain how acupuncture works, research results show that acupuncture has the ability to control neuroendocrine functions which account for its effectiveness.

Criminal justice systems in Japan

Over the past two decades, the Japanese legal system has been pictured as one of the slowest and ineffective criminal justice systems in all around the world.

The system is affected by outdated traditions where criminal cases are perceived as embarrassing. Therefore, most cases are handled traditionally through such methods as negotiations and cases only proceed to court if the parties were unable to reach an agreement. This method is referred to as the comparative justice system. The intent of this thesis is to ...
