Essays on Existence

For the religious believers, such as Christians and Catholics and those of other religious denominations the answer would simply be yes God exists and we humans are the proof of God’s existence. However, from a philosophical or scientific standpoint the answer to God’s ...

A Key Theme from “The Epic of Gilgamesh”, “Lila” and “Holy Bible”

The Epic of Gilgamesh is an epic poem from ancient Mesopotamia. It is often considered as one of the most ponderable works of literature. The literary history of the poem begins with five Sumerian poems about “Gilgamesh”, who was a king of Uruk. Then, these above-indicated separate stories were used as a major source material for a combined epic. The principal character was two-thirds god and one-third man. He built prodigious and dignified temple towers, which surrounded his city with high walls. Although he was physically immensely strong and beautiful as well as very prudent mentally, but as a ...

The ivory trade has been an international problem for decades. While ivory is an important commodity to many of the countries in Africa, the use of this material is threatening the survival of the African elephant. While trade laws and sanctions have been passed by the global community to limit the use of ivory, a number of African countries continue to be active in this trade. By failing to understand the ivory trade and the economic position of many of the African countries, humans have directly contributed to the near extinction of both elephants and rhinoceros.

Edward Hallowell outlines 10 tips for promoting shine among your people, but two of the tips stand out the most because they are so simple: “acknowledge people’s existence” and “try to provide recognition in person” (Hallowell, 2011). Both of these tips create a connection between the employee and the organization, which is critical to success. They make everyone feel as though they are part of something bigger and create a sense of community among coworkers. Acknowledging people’s existence is the most simple of the tips. It takes virtually no effort to say hello in the hallway, give ...

There has always been an opposition between religion and science, despite the confession and the type of scientific data. The reasons behind this battle are understandable, as each of paradigms tries to explain the development of the universe differently. Each of the sides has its own arguments. A religious view is based on faith, while scientific point of view roots in theory, logic, and facts proved or disproved by experimental design. In his editorial “Science Increasingly Makes the Case for God” Eric Metaxas tries to argue that today scholars admit God’s authorship of the universe (Metaxas). In order ...

Today, there is a broad consensus among policymakers and mainstream economists in developed countries and international institutions that a secure property rights regime (defined in terms of the transparency, impartiality, and competence of the judicial system) plays a critical role in economic development. Yet this view is a recent phenomenon; it is only in recent decades that the importance of property rights has entered the economic literature. Of course, throughout much of the early history of modern economics, the existence of private property rights was a presumption that underlay the work of leading economic thinkers. It is no wonder ...

The use of cityscapes in cinema began in the mid-1920s with Berlin being the birth city of these new types of movies. Since then, cities have provided a production site as well as consumptions and distribution sites.

Using cities as sites for shooting movies allows an understanding issues of the public sphere and social space (Mennel 32). Employing city landscape when shooting movies also help in promoting an understanding of modern aesthetics. Linklater’s movie Before Sunset tells a romantic story ...

The goal of Descartes’ Third Meditation is to determine if God exists, and, if God is a deceiver. He attempts to show the rationality of the belief of God in order to discredit agnostics and atheists. Descartes reaches conclusions on both of his goals in this particular section of the mediation. Descartes displays how reason can lead to the affirmation of the existence of God. Through the use of deduction and an analysis of cause and effect, he concludes that God exists. Descartes explains he has the idea of God within him. This idea must have a source. It ...

Introduction

The commencement and ending of Homer’s epic poem the Iliad depict a rational existence of humans before and after the interference of the immortal beings respectively. The middle passages are different as they present a palpable yet gradual build up of human emotions that warrant an alliance with the gods and goddesses in the text. In turn, a paradox emerges in the depiction of the relationships between the mortals and the immortals in the Homeric poem: the gods are necessary for Homer’s presentation of the humans, but they are also to blame for the unstable attitudes and ...

This paper argues that private property is an enduring than a universal feature of our existence as are other elements such as migration, markets, and the State.

The form of object ownership is one of the enduring aspects of humanity. Throughout history and ages, humans have acquired and valued objects as well as ideas to advance their existence. This realization shows that property is a vital part of ...

Intelligence design and Darwinian Theory of evolution

Intelligent designs

Intelligence design is a scientific research program that constitutes professionals ranging from scientists, philosophers and the community of believers that are trying to seek the evidence-based design work. This design says that matters of existence and world origins are best explained by an intellectual undertaking and not a story that has no direction like the Darwinian Theory of natural selection (DeWolf et al., 2007).When one studies the components of a given measure, one can outline the issues of law, chances in life and conditions found in intelligence design.

Summary of the Paper

‘The Evolution of Bank Supervision: Evidence from U.S. States’ by Kris James Mitchener and Matthew Jaremski provides valuable work as far as unveiling the history and reason behind the evolution of bank supervisory institutions in the various states.

There exists planned breeding strategy and planned breeding strategy. However, the random breeding strategy is prone to inbreeding. This refers to the breeding of species that are ...

In story “The Law of Life”, Jack London seeks to identify the law of life, which to him seems to be eternal.

The first chapter of Leo Marx’s book ‘The Machine in the Garden. Technology and the Pastoral Idea in America’ is named Sleepy Hollow. This name is derived from one of Nathaniel’s Hawthorne’s writings whereby he describes a small space scooped out among the woods which is used for farming Indian corn and which according to Hawthorne “is like the lap of a bounteous Nature, filed with bread stuff”(Marx 12).

Introduction

The article entitled The Gender Gap in Wages, circa 2000 by June O’Neil discusses the existence of gender pay gap between men and women, despite the considerable social and economic growth that occurred during this century. Accordingly, the participation of women in the labor force has dramatically increased in the turn of the century, yet the labor force activity does not seem to narrow the gender wage gap. O’Neil argued that the wage gap between men and women is spelled out by non-discriminatory elements which “are unlikely to change radically in the near future unless the roles ...

The society creates the various gender roles and as a result, with time, these roles are viewed as the appropriate behavior of a person. Learning and life experiences help develop gender roles. The idea of femininity and masculinity not only prevails in the present times but also in the Victorian era. Although gender construction can be defined by biological factors, a larger convection believes that gender is socially constructed. Therefore, gender is a social construct as the society is responsible for determining what characterizes a particular sex and the subjects act by those characteristics. Feminism refers to the nature ...

Introduction

When it comes to story-telling, many people emphasize the story part, instead of the telling one. Nevertheless, the manner in which a story is told can be very influential in its reception. In fact, many people would say that the story itself changes depending on the discourse that presents it. This came to the limelight in the end of the nineteenth century with the Modernist current. Authors such as James Joyce and Virginia Woolf deliberately modified the way that stories were told. They utilized many techniques that allowed them greater range of expression, many of which were not even ...

[Faith in metaphysics] Both Gabriel Marcel and Sǿren Kierkegaard agreed that faith is not about believing the existence of God but about believing in God, an absolute presence who is accessible to the believer through prayer and worship as well as through “invocation and response” (Negomireanu 56-57). Through faith, human beings can gain access to the mystery of God, not in the sense of understanding the mystery, but in the experience of soaking to that mysterious Presence (58). Jean-Luc Marion’s phenomenological approach of this accession to the mystery was described as ...

Waiting for Godot

The years after the Second World War are considered to be ill-fated for the theatre arts. However, over the course of time, interests as well as endeavors were carried towards undiscovered subjects and to those which are not openly acknowledged or displayed in the traditionally established forms and uses as well. Therefore, in gradual mode, without any ostentatious manifestation, another type of theatre appeared. In the 50s it was obtruded upon large audiences, which consisted of students and academics searching for something neoteric. Absurdism is regarded as philosophical standpoint which asserts that the aspirations of humanity to detect meaning ...

Introduction

The world never saw a rainbow until long after most of the Gods on Olympus and the heroes of the land were tales told by grandmothers to the eager faces of their grandbabies looking through sparkling eyes looking at the old but still beautiful face of Chloe. Her strong but soft voice filled the quiet room aglow with the golden and orange light from the warm crackling fire at the hearth in the main room of the small but clean and welcoming house on the hill along the cliffs overlooking the Aegean Sea. Chloe loved telling these old tales ...

Life needs nourishment and development to be fulfilling as we observe from our texts. The two female human beings that were born in darkness were so much longing to see the light and finally discover the meaningful purpose of their lives. We can also observe that with light comes life, without which life doesn’t have much purpose and meaning. The patience exhibited by these females in the text for waiting for the light also implies that for humanity to achieve happiness and realize the aim of life they have to be patient. Seeking happiness, long life and success ...

In many cases, different communities share cultural beliefs that are passed down their generations.

Introduction

Bousso, Poles and Cruz (2013) refer to a concept as an abstract image or a representation formulated in the mind. Therefore, it may mean one thing to one person and another thing to someone else.

Managing Organization Change

An organization’s existence and operation are always influenced and shaped by different environmental drivers that surround it. These drivers may have their genesis within and outside that particular organization. The sensitivity or insensitivity to these environmental dynamics may contribute to the survival or the fall of an organization respectively (Dixon & Day 2010, p. 275). The institutional environment is always changing with time and knowledge advancement. What may have worked and led to success in a given organization at one point may become outdated and obsolete. Failure of an organization to evolve in relation to these changes may result ...

The philosophical view on death and immortality has been based on different views and perceptions of human nature, human behavior and other factors such as the existence of supernatural beings and fate. The varying factors in the view of death mainly emanate from the existence of different cultures and societies which have different beliefs and perception on life and death. However, the main similarity in the varying views of death is the agreement on the inability of the body to remain in its active state. Regardless of this knowledge, cultures differ on the nature of the soul and spirit ...

Question One

Starting a business enterprise from scratch can be challenging for an entrepreneur. There are numerous hindrances such as difficulties in marketing the new business and establishing cash flow. Nonetheless, buying an already established business can bring numerous advantages to the entrepreneur. First of all, it is less risky to buy a business than start from scratch. The already established business already has a financial history and, as a result, the entrepreneur can easily attract shareholders and obtain the required funding. The existing business has established product/service (AKD Consultants, 2013). Thus, the entrepreneur does not struggle to market the service/product ...

Since ancient times, thanks to the social needs a person had to distinguish and take into account individual psychological characteristics of people. Even then, people began to think about the existence of a spiritual principle, which has guided their behavior. Psychology, as a special scientific discipline, was born in the depths of philosophy, and so the psychological "dimension" of identity is very difficult to identify and explore not focusing on the philosophical doctrine of man, the specifics of its existence (individual and public), about the nature of human consciousness and activity. The formation of psychology as a science has ...

Whether or not God exists is one of the most foundational questions humans have asked. While the traditional scientific viewpoint is that conclusively demonstrating whether or not there is a God is impossible, a number of philosophical and theological arguments have emerged that have attempted to do just that – recognize that God does exist and prove it through an argument. Soren Kierkegaard was one such philosopher. He argued that while God exists, his existence could not be proven and only grasped through faith. Other philosophers and theologians have gone even farther than Kierkegaard and have argued that God’s ...
