Saint Thomas Aquinas is one of the people accredited for having brought theology into the limelight. However, though theology existed long before the emergence of philosophers and fathers if the church, individualistic drives such as those of Aquinas brought a deeper understanding into the mysteries of theology.

While it cannot be independently verified what the motivation was behind the interest in theology, it is clear that theology is what it is because of the input of

Theoretically speaking, the term 'stakeholders' refers to "any group or individual who can affect or is affected by the achievement of organizations objectives" (Freeman, 2010). It is obvious to expect the differences in stakeholders expectations for a profit business to that of non-profit organizations.
The biggest difference is the monetary expectation. As non-profit organizations don't make monetary benefits from their operations, stakeholders cannot expect financial benefits. The goals of these firms are, usually, providing a charitable and educational service. As such, stakeholders including funders, volunteers, participants, clients and government officials may have different expectations ranging from providing quality service

The observation is a study of altruistic behavior of adults toward strangers. One goal in the study is to determine if the presence of an audience motivates a person to be charitable. Hudson and Bruckman (2004) theorized an individual of a particular personality will respond more to the opportunity to participate in a charitable contribution if others are aware of the donation. This may be evidenced in a donation when the plate is passed n church when a person feels others are watching. Some religious organizations include an envelope to conceal the amount of the donation.

Non-profit hybrid organization is such an interesting topic since it is a fresh academic matter. The concept of such organization goes beyond the boundaries of profits and voluntarism has been recorded in the literature just recently.

There are more than 1.4 million non-profit organizations that operate around the world and thousands of new non-profit organizations are established daily (p. 1). Unlike business enterprises, non-profit organizations do not function to generate income. They also do not share the earnings to

Every religion advocates philanthropy and looks at it as an essential aspect for the welfare of mankind. Islam is no exception and we find that Islamic rulings make charity obligatory. The western world does not associate the philanthropy with Islam and rather look at the Muslim community as propagators of violence and terrorism. The West looks at Islam as authoritarian and domination of women. Their unawareness of the Quran and the conducts of the Prophet keep them away from the reality that Islam is all about compassion, mercy and generosity. It is perhaps the irresponsible attitude of certain Muslims

This would give me a new experience apart from the normal life of Christianity and the general church experience. This event was scheduled to take place in one of the

Every person undergoes the process of shaping mental outlook; however, it depends on an individual whether or not he or she will have his or her world vision become an ever-elevating multi-faceted virtue or the one dominated by stereotypes, an ingrained and somewhat oversimplified idea of material world and people. Stereotypes-obsessed people tend to derive knowledge from media resources, such as newspapers and TV programs, which have stereotyped our perception of the world since they are far more entertaining digital alternatives to classical elitist or sophisticated paper sources of knowledge that idle-minded people resort to. Dangerous is such an

Local businesses can help circulate the money within the community, which can embitter market place in the locale. Many local businesses focus on the customer and

The Masonic society has grown to greater levels in the contemporary world such that it has attracted the attention of many researchers. Initially, it was a group of brothers, who eluded from the royal society, who had a deep and abiding desire to seek knowledge, debate philosophies, explore history and discover symbolism. It paved way for the development of what is commonly known as freemasonry in the contemporary society. Some books define it as a peculiar system of morality oblique in fable and exemplified by symbols (Jeffers, 98). It evolved from the discussion of ethics and morality that brought

The recent financial and banking crisis in UK can be traced to five years back (2007/2008). However, the root causes of the problem could be traced to the 1970s and the 1980 when the US and UK governments when UK and US deregulated their financial markets.
