Camus's "The Guest" (pp. 1580-97).
As the story ends, Daru seems to be threatened with a consequence he doesn’t deserve. Is this just? Is there any way he could have created a good outcome? Why do you think Camus chooses to end the story this way?
As it has been indicated in the post, Daru’s situation is one that portrays the diverse view through which the society perceives an individual. In the need to seek to establish a good rapport with the society, Daru lets the prisoner decide on which way to go-the escape route or the way ...

Christianity was born into a world which was dominated by philosophy. Plato was prominent among the philosophers and thrived on probing all theories put forward until the truth was established. The initial followers of Christianity did not support questioning of their religion because they viewed it as being divine. However, a new crop of believers arose in Alexandria and Athens where philosophy thrived. These are the ones that started putting the teachings of Jesus into organized formats. Philosophers like Justin Martyr also converted to Christianity and just like Socrates fought the old establishment by pushing for reasoned believes as opposed to ...

My personal view of sin

“Against thee, thee only, have I sinned” (Psalm 51:4)
The concept of sin is a major part of almost every major world religion. Whether it be Christianity, Judaism or Islam, followers of faith are always painted to be in the state of a constant battle against sin. Yet, we seldom stop to ponder what really constitutes sin. In the Bible as well as the Koran, the fall of man has been attributed to sin. Christians know this to be the original sin, where Adam and Eve defied the order of God and were punished with banishment from paradise. I believe ...

Psychology Response

Psychology Response

I strongly agree with the argument on the existing correlation between the psychological and theological views of the philosophical anthropology, for instance, Entwistle statement that, problem that exist between the two are only created by lack of appropriate understanding of theology by human beings (Entwistle, 2015). Aigner also back it up by saying most Christians in several circumstances has totally lost the proper meaning theology (Aigner, 2016). Therefore, psychology and theology are more reconcilable as their credible views depend on each other.

Comment 2

In all ways I agree with this argument that both psychology and theology can be ...

Besides being a way of thinking, human rights are also a set of political and legal doctrines. These doctrines limit the government power to shape citizens expectations.

Assignment 1.

The same is the case with logic; the logical way of thinking or rationale way of thinking is a corner stone of the Western culture. While Eastern world perception is based on spiritual belief, the Western is based on rational/logical justifications and proves. Without logical way of thinking science as we know it would not exist, it would be based on assumptions, which would be proved by belief. Thus, logic provides the Western culture with its foundation - rationalism. The modern example of this is that, without logical laws of truth and false, it would not be possible to build ...

Introduction

I chose this image because it symbolizes important things that are slowly fading in this world such as the interrelationship between humanity and nature, the essence of beauty, and the significance of culture among others. All these symbols, combined with a minimalist use of color and elements, make the image so appealing to me. On a more emotional note, this particular image gives me a feeling of peace. It has a calming factor. Looking at it makes me feel at ease and sentimental thoughts tend to arise. Though not exactly the best or the most unique, this image stirs up special feelings.
