The benefits of the crusades vs. the benefits of the current terrorist group (ISIS)

Introduction Since the medieval ages, religion has been used to spread acts of narrow-mindedness against others. From the time of the Christian inquisitions and crusades to the current Islamic jihadism and terrorism, this fundamentalist attitude has caused the death of many. At its root, is the selfishness and ambition for power and wealth that rules the hearts of men. Religious organizations are responsible for establishing the moral fiber in the society. They undertake this duty by selling the concept of ‘salvation’. In return, they obtain rent in the form of tithes in order to intercede on behalf of individuals ...

In the mid-14th century, Europe enjoyed robust trade with the Near East and the Far East. By the 1340s, sea trade routes had been established with faraway countries such as Syria, Egypt, Persia, China, and India (history.com, internet).

Philosophy

In 1517, Martin Luther posted his “The Ninety-Five Thesis” at Wittenberg. It is a protest, especially, against the sale of indulgences for the remission of sins – whether here on earth or in the purgatory. God alone grants forgiveness to a person who made a genuine contrition. I disagree with Luther’s Theses on three (3) grounds.

First, it seems contrary to logic that Luther defied Catholic doctrines (Theses 7ff), which he himself tried to embrace. He believed in the papacy, priests, and most Catholic teachings, except of course, on grounds different from his own observation and knowledge. As evidence of Luther’ ...

Introduction

Medieval period is not a new term, and it frequently appears in the history classes and is mainly used to point out that period in history characterized by the commencing of the renaissance period, in the fourteenth century. Moreover, many scholars refer to this period as the middle ages and sometimes the dark ages. This period also denotes the beginning of the fall of the Roman Empire, about 476 CE. This period implies that the society that the people were living in the fifteenth century was more civilized and significant than the previous civilizations that have ever existed for thousands ...

In this paperwork, I am going to discuss about Rerum Novarum, especially its treatment of socialism and capitalism. According to the reading, it is depicted that the majority of the working class continue to live in misery. The socialists, attempts to bring to an end to these wrongs, are striving to implement a strategy that will abolish the ownership of private property. The socialists argue that the private belongings should become the universal possessions for the entire group of people. It would, therefore, ensure a fair share for each person to take pleasure in, hence bringing to an end of the numerous suffering that exists between the rich and the poor. The properties should, therefore, be controlled by civic ...

The important concepts of law and justice are necessary foundations that lend legitimacy to a state, in particular and to a society and/or a civilization, in general. Owing to the intrinsic differences in social organizations the concepts of law and justice have varied definitions and approaches in the West and the East.

Lumen Gentium is the Dogmatic Constitution on the Church, as promulgated by the Second Vatican Council, about half a century ago, in 1964 (Weinandy). According to Lumen Gentium Jesus has shared his threefold office, that of Priest, King and Prophet, with the Church and Catholic lay men and women, once the latter get baptized and confirmed (Weinandy). Taking into account that Jesus sanctifies, governs and teaches, one can understand the perceived role of priests, kings and prophets respectively. Analyzing Jesus’ threefold offices, the role of each will become apparent.

Several institutions developed in both France and England in the 13 and 14th century and these institutions were behind the civilization of western countries. The first institution was the church. Many crusades were made in these countries facilitating the spread of Christianity.

They controlled monarchy in England that had a lot of power (Noble, 156).

While Child Protective Services might find the dance that unfolds in Roethke’s “My Papa’s Waltz” to be a bit unsightly, it is clearly an event that the little boy enjoys, finding it a moment of bonding with his father. The fact that the boy’s “mother’s countenance/Could not unfrown itself”(Roethke 7-8) suggests that she disapproves of the father drinking. Indeed, the father has had more than a couple of shots, as the mere smell of it on his father’s breath turns the boy dizzy. This use of alcohol may well be just a form of solace after a long ...

Ethical considerations hold the key to effective and meaningful recovery of a patient from all his/her illness with dignity. Failure to adhere to these ethical practices by the medical practitioners and therapists will not only throw away peoples trust on them, but also create a legal tussle between the two groups, further worsening the situation. In light of the two professional settings (Psychiatric Hospital and Children Psychotherapy), ethical boundary considerations resonates around two crucial parameters; informed consent and Confidentiality (Pope, & Vasquez, 2011). In deed, these are the key to mutual respect and understanding between the doctor and the patient.

Abstract

Grey areas in ethics inevitably occur for therapists during the course of treating many different patients. The advent of new technology poses situations for therapists that offer challenges to issues of informed consent and confidentiality. The American Psychological Association’s Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct can provide guidance to therapists in dealing with the grey areas in ethics.

Having read this post regarding informed consent and confidentiality, the author has mentioned two grey areas regarding the topic. The first grey area mentioned is the issue of clients and therapists not thoroughly reviewing and ensuring a cooperative understanding of a consent form, especially when language barriers are involved. The second grey area discussed is a client’s lack of understanding of the limits of confidentiality, especially when it comes to issues involving abuse or harm to others.

These are both important issues to consider, but rather than mention them as two separate grey areas, consider how these issues are directly related. ...

The process of Galileo - inquisitorial trial of 70-year-old physicist and astronomer Galileo, held in 1633 in Rome.

The poem introduces three characters: the father, the mother and the author. It seems to me that the author is a little boy, a boy being punished, perhaps for no or very little reason, by his father. Although the poem is called “Papa’s Waltz”, the dance that we observe vaguely remind of this graceful, peaceful and enjoyable dance. The couple – papa and his son - dance together with little harmony. The father is obviously dominating and taking the leading role. The dance looses all the pleasure for the little boy and all that is left is to follow blindly. The ...

The Holy Crusades were a series of nine major military campaigns led by Roman Catholic Church to take back Jerusalem from Muslims. Religion played a much larger part of everyday life in the time of the crusades, so it is difficult for modern people to truly understand the motives of people involved in the crusades. While the crusades did seem to be fought generally in the name of God, it appears many people involved in the crusades fought more out of self-interest rather than some deep religious devotion. The Holy Crusades were not very holy. Evidence suggests that one of ...

Religion has been seen as disempowered and in decrease in the cutting edge world, its implications no more applicable inside the overwhelming mainstream perspective and institutional temples losing control of social life to common bodies (i.e., secularization, privatization).

History of Western Civilization

Western civilization describes the development of human civilization beginning in the Middle East and spreading westwards. Its roots may date back to 9000 BCE when humans existing as hunters and gatherers began to settle into agricultural societies.

The western civilization had spread to northern America, South America and much of Oceania.

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 the ...

The current perception about the importance of grades is quite baffling. The academic fraternity has placed so much importance on high grades and putting so much focus on grades, most of the students in various institutions are missing the purpose of education. Good education is often quoted as a major prerequisite to a good job and consequently a good life. Education is not considered decent enough until one has gone to college and graduated. With such an understanding of college education importance, many students torture themselves with books hoping to get good grades to get into college (Pope, 14). The students ...

As a result, humans are creatures that have a distinct purpose to play compared to other creatures. According to the statue, Greeks appears to have created something that was greatly human. The characteristic features of the statue present the particular parts of the body of a human being. This indicates the value that Greeks had for humanity. The human nature of man is of greater significance since humans are expected to behave in a manner consistent with values, and ...
