ABSTRACT

Theory of Evolution gained popularity in the past but has been rejected by many scholarly figures today. This paper focuses on this theory especially in case of Egyptian black. Comprehensive interviews were taken from four different persons resulting in useful information from each interviewee. This paper gives a detailed analysis of each interview in a logical manner so as to provide an in-depth information on the subject. The interviewees have shown their interest in the interview hence making it easy for the interviewer to ask more vivid questions to take out more information from them. These interviews form the basis of ...

Question 1

Mohammed Rafiq was born in India and practices Islamic. Nevertheless, in the workplace, his colleagues as well as hi manager keeps on referring to him as an Arab and essentially takes him to be an Afghanistan citizen even though Rafiq has told them on several occasions that he is from India. Harassment based upon an erroneous depiction of a worker's national origin is as unethical as harassment based on the worker's actual national origin. For instance, in Rafiq’s case, the colleagues made discriminatory comments regarding Rafiq’s religion simply because he was from a religion that they associated with a different ...

Introduction

Both Judith Carney and Rafael Marquese examine the contribution of African Slaves in the development and production of specific cash crops. Carney believes that the production of Rice in South Carolina is as a result of diffusion of agricultural culture from Africa to Americas. She argues that rice production was the culture of the West Africans far before the Portuguese explorers reached Africa in in the 14th century. Rice was the staple food among most of the West African communities. They used the mangrove swamps to create paddies and used canal irrigation to water the rice. The same methodology ...

Religion is a monotheistic form of worship or religion. It imbibes and generally covers a span of traditions, practices and beliefs which have their origin from the awakened one-or the Buddha; called Siddhartha Gautama (Emavardhana and Tori, 199). It is believed that the Buddha was enlightened on matters of life, philosophy and religion, for this simple reason, it is accredited to him the bringing about of the religion of Buddha. Records, history and empirical data point to the direction that he must have lived and taught religion in the Easter parts of India in the period of the 4th to 6th century. ...

Introduction:

We know for sure that the universe exists. This knowledge alone is not able to satisfy the insatiable curiosity in humans. Since the existence of mankind, the quest for further understanding of the origin of the universe has been imprinted into the human genetic code. This curiosity has led to more questions than answers. It has led to us to question the significance and purpose of humans in the universe. This curiosity has also led us to question the role of man in this universe. These questions have exited through time: How was the universe created? Where did it ...

Introduction

Over the years, there were two main contending theories in the United States concerning the emergence of life: evolution and creationism. Evolution characterized science’s view of how creation began, and creationism presented the religious elucidations. Later, came the intelligent design theory, also referred to as the design theory. This is the opinion that nature displays concrete signs of having been devised by a preexisting intelligence. The intelligent design concept purports that an unsystematic natural process could have developed life by no chance. Rather, only the direction of an intelligent power can explicate the intricacy and diversity evidenced today. Since ...

Part One

The origin of Islam is explained in the summary of the creation of the earth and the heavens. The creation of the earth and the heavens was done in six days (Weider, & Gutlerrez, 2011). God created the sun, moon, trees and the firmament. He also created man and this explains the origin of Islam.

The question of Identity

Islam is seen as a way of life of the Islamic people. It is the way f life of human beings and thus it shows being civilized. It embodies and can make real the things, which make people to be human. People can choose ...

A close examination of Cosgrove’s article reveals that landscape traces more of a social origin than a geographical origin. This hypothesis is supported by his elaborate explanation about the historical origin and the citations from other articles supporting the statement. In his explanation of how the landscape is rooted from the society, he defines landscape as seeing of a person about the landscape. Examining the content of the article, there is great connection between the social fabric and landscape. This is mainly because the social activities have a direct effect on the landscape. The end of social formation and symbolic landscape in ...

Historical-materialist perspective associated with Marx and Engels

Friedrich Engels and Karl Marx developed the concept of the historical materialism also known as the materialist conception of history. One of the main building blocks of this concept is the Hegel's argument that history arises from a dialectic/conflict of the contrasting forces in the society. According to Hegel's claim, the world that we live is a world of appearances, and the state of reality where an individual and the absolute are reunified defines the end of the story. To form a theory of historical materialism, Marx and Engels accepted the idea of dialectic but refuted the Hegel's notion ...

I have chosen Buddhism as the worldview to analyze. As there are two schools of Buddhism, rather than focusing on one school, I tried to incorporate the concepts that both schools follow.

Origin

In Buddhism, life has no beginning or end. There could not have been a beginning out of nothing. Instead, there is a cycle of life called Samsara. The cycle is continuous and consists of births and deaths. There is a story told by Buddha that to a man who asked him about the origin of life. Buddha explained in parable that a man was shot by a ...

Question 1

Color-blindness is a concept that the author utilizes to help the reader understand the different racial, ethnic or cultural dimensions that can be ignored or abandoned in that respect in order to build a society of tolerance. While this is a good idea, I seem to have certain reservations about it. On one hand is the fact that each of us has a proud part of themselves, emanating from their historical or ancestral point. It is therefore not possible that we can avoid the issue of color, especially when it is used to express diversity. For instance a case of the NBA stars of ...

Reflection on Judaism human nature

Various religions have different beliefs on human nature. This paper seeks to analyze the human nature as presented in the Judaism philosophy as recorded in Torah. Judaism hold that the origin of human beings is creation i.e. humans were created by a supernatural being-God (Harold Coward, 2008). I partially agree on this philosophical approach because the origin of humans as we may know today is subject to serious debate. There is no any specific evidence on the origin if humans that leaves no doubts and various question unanswered.
The created human beings are in the image of the creator. ...

In an age of scientific advancement, it is easy to take for granted a number of widely-held facts and theories that have been largely substantiated by scientific inquiry. One of these fundamental theories is the theory of evolution-- much of science and medicine is built upon the foundation of evolutionary theory. Without an understanding of evolutionary theory, modern medicine would not have advanced to the point that it has; humanity's ability to produce vaccines and do work on genetic diseases and stem cells would be severely curtailed, if not impaired entirely. Indeed, without Darwin's introduction of evolutionary theory, humanity's understanding ...

Introduction

One of the legally required benefits available to employees is protection against discrimination in their workplace. This is the selected area which this paper proposes to examine. The U.S. Department of Commerce has categorized potential discriminations in the workplace as “REGARDS” each letter of which refers to race, ethnicity, gender (sex), religion, disability, and sexual orientation respectively as part of best practices in achieving workforce diversity in one of its reports. As such, the most common forms of discrimination in vogue at workplaces are the above said ones in addition to genetic information, pregnancy, and sexual harassment. If an ...

Introduction

Common types of discrimination at workplace considered illegal are discrimination based on race, ethnicity, gender (sex), age, religion, disability, genetic information, pregnancy and sexual harassment. Sexual orientation is another form of discrimination. Discrimination refers to less favorable treatment of an employee compared to others because of the said predispositions. The U.S. Department of Commerce refers to these types of discriminations as “REGARDS” denoting race, ethnicity, gender, age, religion, disability and sexual orientation in its report of Best Practices in Achieving Workforce Diversity. These dimensions do not cover lack of intelligence, height or physical attractiveness though it is now illegal ...

Religion can be described as an organized collection of cultural systems, beliefs and world views which relate to human order of existence. Many religions have symbols, narratives and sacred histories which are intended to explain life meaning or more so explain origin of universe origin and origin of life. It is from the beliefs about human nature and cosmos that people derive ethics; morality and religious law that sums up to preferred lifestyle. Most of the religions have well organized behaviors and clergy who defines what membership or adherence constitutes. For example, Daoism was associated with Laozi, a legendary scholar. ...

Introduction

Minority homelessness in London is an article by Kusminder Chahal that looks at the critical issue of homelessness in London, the vulnerable groups and the health risks they are exposed to. The article provides comprehensive information on the topic of study citing some of the research findings that were found. However, as the author notes from the research findings, they were biased and hence not providing true information on the state of homelessness in London. Most of the research techniques used could not allow the collection of correct information as it was more based on what was physical rather ...

Felicite adores her pet parrot Loulou very much while it is alive, and gets it stuffed after it dies. Felicite and Loulou seem to have a multifaceted relationship, and Gustave Flaubert uses the stuffed parrot as a means of satirizing religious though by depicting it as an embodiment of the Holy Ghost. Through Loulou, Flaubert seems to be mocking all parrotry, and he makes the parrot mindlessly repeat all sorts of clichés. In fact, the parrot’s own name comprises the repetition of the word “Lou.” There is a scene in the book when visitors to at the house are admiring ...

Analysis
One of the most evident cultural features in the picture above is the existence of a tie; in sociology, a tie is described as the major content of a particular relation between individuals or groups. In other cases, it is also referred as a binding feature between individuals within a group or a community. In the picture, one can identify several ties between the footballers. That is, they are united by the fact that they are in the same football team; this is evident in the mode of dressing. They have the same football uniform, meaning that they ...

The use of evidence in criminal investigation is a non-disputable course of justice establishment in any event of criminal activity occurrence. At the same time, evidence requires qualification to warrant charges in the court of law. The case presented here requires a deep understanding of both the victims' concerns. As a firm, we really need to establish the correlation of the subjects presented. The insurer's concerns and the justice establishment process. However, as a common practice, the outlined practice procedures include a series of events in the process. There are several links to the investigative process as presented in ...

Descartes argues that there are two equal world beginnings, i.e. "mind or mental substance, and body or physical substance" (Philosophy of Mind, 2016, p. 5). The main property of the first beginning is the thought, while the second one operates with the length. Both phenomena coexist in the world, moreover, these two principles are everlasting, and none of them dominates the other. However, Descartes says that God created these substances, which means that his dualism is approaching idealism, as dualism "could be based upon religion, belief in life after death, or belief that people are more valuable than mere ...

More than a hundred years ago, it would have been hard to find a clear association with San Diego. In fact, it was a small town that did not differ much from any other city in the south of the USA. It continued until citizens started to take care after the oldest recreational park in the country. They put in a great deal of effort in order to keep a fragile beauty of nature and open special places for the needs of the community. In 1909, a City Council committee decided to take advantage of the former devotion to ...

The chapter Cheryl Zlotnick and Luann Devos called Transitional Families, explores peculiarities and aspects of living in a transition state. First of all, it defines the transitional family as a family whose “structure, living situation, or both” are in flux. The author’s argue that the number of transitional families in nowadays society increases and the issue should be addressed more intensively. The Unites States Department of Housing and Urban Development reported that one-third of people who used homeless centers were families (2008).
Transitional families can be divided into a few subgroups. Families that belong to the ...

Description of adolescent sex offenders and their origin:

Adolescent sex offenders are children or teens who commit a forcible or non-forcible sex offense. The law enforcement group classifies sex offenses as forcible rape, such as fondling, sexual assault, sodomy, and rape. In the non-forcible rape, the victim cannot give her consent, and it includes statutory rape, and incest. The early theories indicate that an event/incident causes an impact to the emotional stability of the youth. This scenario leads to anger, which eventually results to fantasies and thoughts of retaliation. Then, the youth thinks of overpowering another person thus, resulting to an assault. Discussions with the offenders reveal ...

Introduction

The African American culture is complex and multifaceted. It was derived from numerous cultures in Africa and, later, from the Caribbean Islands. The African-American blackness is a product of at least five interconnected dimensions (Hooks 109). The first dimension is racial. A person’s race is a genetic characteristic that relates to their continent of origin. The African-American label was derived from the fact that the blacks originally came from Africa. The second dimension is ethnic. It’s based on a presupposition of a common culture and a similar biological descent. In this regard, African Americans were expected to ...

Introduction

There are many challenges ahead on which managers should focus and be prepared to address in the area of gender and generation supervision. Different generations and genders have different attitudes towards work, loyalty towards employer, attitudes, respect and authority, supervision, training needs and styles and also desires among many others. The generations’ term is used for the group of people that share birth years, location and age and have different views. The focus of the paper will be on presenting different generations and their basic characteristics and examine the successful way management can handle diversity and promote nondiscrimination on ...

The search for truth has always puzzled humanity. Since ancient times, people have sought to know the truth about the world and the many claims being made about everything in the world. For modern scholars and philosophers, the process of determining what is true is an important epistemological process through which human beings develop knowledge. However, there are several competing truth claims in the world such that it is not easy to know if something is true or false. Fortunately, the following steps can be used to determine what is true and what is not.
One of these steps ...

Most researchers agree that modern humans have been around for 100,000 years. However our ancestors ‘primates’ who walked upright in African plains, banded together for warmth and shelter might have lived much longer than us, estimated at around 3.2 million years. The predictions made are based on 42-inch fossil that was found in Ethiopia in 1974 by anthropologist Donald C. Johanson. This skeleton is probably the most popular fossil in the entire world and is named ‘Lucy’ after the Beatles song playing in the tape deck of researchers when it was found.

1) In the year 2075, an American college student walks into a church and carries out shooting. He killed the priest and other people who belonged to the church. He was arrested, and upon investigation found that the church conducted a marriage of Chinese community the previous day. He has been sentenced to 75 years in prison. The event might sound like a fiction. However, the current trend gives a clear idea about the future forecast on the criminal-justice system where diversity of, tolerance and diversity are on the real threat as young American minds are not able to resist the fact that ...

Question 1
In the mid 19th century, after the Second World War, Jews in the Arab countries faced the gravest ever case of human rights violation. The Arab regimes in the Middle East and northern part of Africa forced Jews to leave their homes or be held like political hostages. The Arabs came up with official statements that completely subordinated the Jews and threatened their civil, political, economic, and human rights. These actions contradicted the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights. Part II and Article2.1 of the covenant states that “each state party to the present ...

Scheid and Vasko’s Article on Racism

According to Scheid and Vasko’s article, white privilege mostly arises while in white universities; here, many students are unaware of their racial identity and they do not know how they fit in their own racial hierarchy. In America, many students assume that their races are superior to others. Hence, they use this to accomplish their racial malpractices.
In white moral innocence, many white students fail to realize that they have racial prejudices, and they unknowingly engage in behaviors that could be seen as racist. This attitude has encouraged them to take racism to a high level through explaining ...

Paul Heyer begins the work on the history of communication from the analysis of his understanding of the Enlightenment as a separate period and of its historical value. He points out that John Locke’s Essay on Human Understanding can be chosen as an indicator to frame the period of Enlightenment. He continues the thought about the Age of Reason claiming that for the first time science and reason focused on the comprehensive examination of elements of human nature, society and history. Such point of view tended to differentiate itself from the theological and abstract metaphysical systems that took place ...

Introduction

The Indian region is politically decentralized due to the diversity of religion. However, the organized teachings of Buddhism in the Gupta Empire help the nation in establishing their political and religious unity. Although it was lost after the prosperous reign of the Gupta Empire, it left a significant impact in teaching morality and ethics. Two of the major documents helped in maintaining the significance of Buddhism in India, which were the “Dhammapada” and the “scripts of Faxien”. These two documents depicted the moral teachings of Buddhism during its reign in the Gupta Empire. The objective of this ...

Acupuncture is considered one of the ancient traditional Chinese medical practices, whose age cannot be precisely defined, but is generally believed to be approximately 2000 years. As medical experts of the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine of the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services define it, acupuncture is a technique that involves stimulation of the points in the body, often by inserting thin needles into it (Lao et al., 2014). It is believed that every human has the energy of life called qi, and this energy flows in the human body through the meridians that are the streams ...

ECCLESIOLOGY

After the World War II, the US became one of the most powerful nations in the world in par with the United Kingdom. The span of American power is not determined by its highly trained military units and rich wealth distribution; the American power primarily lies on the cultural aspects especially most writers, both foreign and native Americans discuss the premise of the American Dream, a philosophical ideology which became an integral part in forming the nation’s identity. As early as 1931, the famous American historian named James Truslow Adams envisioned an ideal land which follows the utopian ideals in ...

Relations between the U.S. federal government and African American and Latino communities have always between an important concern both for governmental politics, and African American and Latino leadership. The important role in federal politics belongs to considering African American and Latino community issues. Relevant policies are also being implemented at the state level in close cooperation with advocacy organizations. Differences in political agendas of African American and Latino leadership call forth considerable difficulties for federal government, which looks forward to running unified policies in terms of its relations with minorities. Furthermore, topicality of addressing the differences under study stems ...

The proposed field of research in dark energy has the potential of creating vast amounts of clean energy for humankind. However, the proposals are still in the preliminary stages, and there are debates about the suitability of having carrying out the research. The proponents seek to expand the existing body of knowledge with the aim of opening up further applications and hence justifying the initial costs and faith put on them. The proposal, along with its implications, has some advantages and disadvantages. Research into dark matter would serve to satisfy Intellectual curiosity. People are curious about the properties of ...

#1 The world we inhabit is real. Many things occurring in the world indicate that the world has a significant origin that no doubt originates from a powerful source. When we consider phenomena that exist and prevail around us, it will be mysterious finding out that a certain force is responsible for controlling the different happenings so that there is a balance of things happening in different capacities. The aspects appearing in the movie only represent the ideas and opinions in the human mind but not reality. The matrix only represents diversity in the ideas of humans. The happenings depicted in the movie ...

According to this article, it is impossible to establish a relationship between intelligence, race and genetics. This article argues that scientists who have found this relationship did not base it on scientific analysis, but on folk taxonomies. Many scientists fail to agree on the definition of intelligence, and this, further compounds the idea of finding a relationship. Race on the other hand, is not a scientific term and does not have a scientific definition. Finding the relationship between other constructs and race would therefore not serve any scientific purpose, but rather social ends.
So far, scientists have not conclusively managed to link ...

In the history, man’s self interested has been dominated by the idea of self interest with the aim of concluding a dominion over those with no or little power in the absence of rule of law to protect them. The monster of Habeas Corpus has been around in circulation for many years despite the fact that it sets back to many years unidentified. The phenomena Corpus has been around for every war encountered as been either considered a good or a bad thing based on the outcome of the war.

Freeman Charles, “The motives of Constantine” in A New History of Early Christianity (New Haven: Yale University Press, 1947), 225-333.

In his chapter “The motives of Constantine,” Freeman argues that the motive for legalizing Christianity by Constantine was to increase his support base, especially among Christians. After defeating Maxentius, Constantine still had to seek support to defeat Licinius, who still ruled the Roman Empire until his defeat in 324 (Freeman 227). Freeman draws his sources from Constantine’s confidant, Eusebius who wrote History of the Church. This points to the idea that Constantine had political motives to legalizing the church. However, by that time, religion still constituted a paltry population of the empire, with less wealth and influence, whose members ...

Introduction

The simplest way define a fallacy is that it is the logical error in an argument or evaluation of a policy. Additionally, it can be the incorrect argument in rhetoric and logic that results in a lack of validity (Laurel 8 – 12). They are classified into formal and informal fallacies. Others have defined fallacy to mean a mistake in belief that is based on certain unsound argument.
This paper identifies the ten fallacies as they are obtained in the political arena, explain how each of the identified fallacies are being employed, and the reason for the application of these fallacies. It should ...

Introduction

A belief is a physiological state in which a person or an individual usually hold it to be true. Knowledge is information and skill that people acquire them through the day to day experiences or through education. Knowledge and beliefs are always inseparable because one needs to have beliefs so that he can attain knowledge. Culture is a feature that is always associated with certain group of people and it differs according to the origin of people. In my own opinion I can say that people can have believes and knowledge that are independent of culture as the following arguments will show.

- What is Freud’s concept of human nature? What does he mean by civilization and why does it leave us discontented?
Sigmund Freud made great contribution in the quest to understand what human nature is. His psychoanalytic theory professes that behavior is determined by very many irrational forces ranging from motivations which are both conscious or unconscious, instincts and even psychosexual actions before the lapse of the first six years of human life (Freud 15). He goes further to state that sexual desire is the driving force behind any form of energy in human life.

- What is your initial point of view?
I really like the theory of doubting what is you’ve come to believe, testing one’s own beliefs is something I think everyone should do if what you believe in isn’t real then it shouldn’t be believed but Descartes seems to conveniently justify his belief in god rather shakily as opposed to giving voice to the obvious doubt he poses in a gods existence. It almost seems like he disproves god’s existence and then just fudges the results to prove the opposite.

It is difficult to image how primitive mind of the Palaeolithic people might have worked, but I think that even in the animalistic, tribal community, Palaeolithic people were already distinct from the rest of the animal world. I think they created cave art, not for its beauty, but rather as means of communication. In this context, they might have wanted to send a message to other tribes or use images as means of teaching their younger generation. Especially, since images depicted the vital animals of everyday hunting. So, it could have been more useful to show images of the chosen ...

Mary Shelley's novel Frankenstein was one of the most elegant and horrifying pieces of literature written in its time, and is still widely considered a Gothic horror classic. The book follows Dr. Victor Frankenstein, a reclusive mad scientist, who seeks to create new life by sewing together the limbs and remains of several other dead bodies and reanimate them. The book and its monster have been compared to many different things in a variety of subtexts, but one of the clearest readings of the book indicates that the monster represents the dangers of knowledge, especially as the book posits that the pursuit ...

Gender roles and gender-related stereotypes are often depicted in literary works. For example, Shakespeare’s play “Macbeth” could be considered misogynistic because it promotes the stereotype that women are the root of all evil, manipulate men for their selfish needs, and create chaos because all female characters in the play show that form of behavior. On the other hand, it is also possible to notice the lack of stability and logic in the main character Macbeth who is depicted as a naïve, indecisive, and dependent character. In “Candide,” it is possible to notice that Voltaire depicts the vulnerability and ...

Stereotypes are generalizations, or assumptions, that people make about the characteristics of all members of a group, based on an image about what people in that group are like (Colorado.edu, 2012) Most of the time these stereo types are inaccurate because every individual is unique in his or her own way. Our background greatly influences our personality and beliefs but that is not the only factor that defines us as a person and people often fail to take that into account. One of the biggest negative impacts of stereotypes is that they distort our perceptions. When we look at someone and ...

Christianity is one of the major religions and is based on the teachings and life of Jesus Christ as written in the New Testament of the Bible. People adhering to the faith are called Christians. The religion teaches Jesus as the Son of God and the one who will come back to save humanity. Since its inception, Christianity was regarded as a one of many sects of Judaism, and had to make competition with many of established religions and cults, which had been long established and formed an essential component of the dominant culture. From its inception all through to ...

Summary and Critique about nature.

All the six articles appear to have a common point of interest, ‘Nature’. From one of the advanced dictionaries, nature is taken to mean distinct characteristics used to point out an object to which the traits are attributed. Considering Casey’s work, the argument is entirely based on defining wilderness and variation in the meaning of the word according to context of use. Casey tries to give some characteristics of wilderness and what wilderness is all about. This work closely intertwines with Cornon’s version and the outcome is even a clearer definition of the nature of wilderness. Considering a layman’s ...

Darwin’s theory of evolution focuses principally on the several stages that man took to evolve into the human being that we know today. He focuses on the importance of adaptation to conditions of life through a series of evolutionary steps which perhaps cannot be scientifically proven totally but provide the best explanation to how we actually became what we are today. In actual fact Darwin was never insistent on proving that his theory was a fact as it remained what it was which was a theory. However as time went by and with the discovery of genetics, we could scientifically prove ...

Civil war is mainly a war betwixt two organized groups which are just within the same nation or betwixt two countries which may have been formed from a previously-united nation where the aim of one side is to take control of other country or a certain region which can also result in changing the government policies. The African American civil rights movement was a kind of series reform movement which its aim was to protest against the emerging racial discrimination against the people whom their origin was African American.

As a result of this racial discrimination, there emerged a group of some African American leaders ...
