Civilization and Its Discontents

The excerpt looks into the illusion of man and religion as per the rules set upon them and how well one knows their religion. The excerpt is an expansion of Freud’s previous work, Future of an Illusion, where he talks more about religion and his thoughts about them including its variations.

It is in my most humble opinion that a mystical experience can be described as any encounter, association or practical experience with some sort of essential or greater power, truth or realm. It can be said that this area of greater truth is outside of the realm of ordinary and/or typical consciousness of oneself. It is to my understanding that a mystical experience can be acquired mainly through deep meditation in direct relation to an individual’s own spiritual discipline. However that is not to say that one whom is not necessarily spiritual or secular, cannot acquire an experience ...

Interpersonal Rejection and Human Needs

Interpersonal Rejection and Human Needs Precisely, a human being becomes a personality due to the fact that he or she lives in society and develops capabilities that are inherent in his or her biological nature in interaction with other people. These opportunities cannot be realized outside of society, thus, a human cannot become a full-fledged personality. The process of human adoption of social experience, acquisition of the qualities that allow him or her to be a member of society, is called socialization.

Typically, a consumer satisfying his/her need chooses what he/she needs from a wide range of products and services specifically designed for this purpose.

Physics 11 Experiment 3: The acceleration due to gravity

Introduction The free fall movement is not a steady movement because there is an action over the body due to the gravity or acceleration between two bodies with different mass. The moon and the earth exert an attraction force due to their two masses (University of Tennessee Knoxville). The planets of the solar system have an orbital movement around the sun thanks to attraction force due to the mass of the sun and the planets. All the particles and bodies in the universe attract them. There is a general equation that represents that phenomenon: F = G*m1*m2/r2 Where ...

In this paper, I will analyze the dialectical variations of early modern English across England. Even though the country is not as vast as the United States, the linguistic complexities are apparent in the ways different communities use the same language in different ways. As Parkin mentions, “It has been widely recognised that the regional distribution of certain bynames and surnames, from the medieval period up to the present day, can represent regional distinctions in Middle English (ME) dialect lexis and phonology” (Parkin 24). Parkin is, of course, referring to names, but this same variation and complexity is present ...

Co-relational Research

The objective of the co-relational research is to demonstrate the connection between two variables. The co-relational research is different from the experimental research in several ways. Primarily, co-relational researches can only be used to identify the connection between two variables. By this relation, the co-relational research assists in making predictions. However, the co-relational research lacks the efficiency to decide the causation as to which variable is the basis of transformation in the other variable. The most significant task of the co-relational research is to describe or forecast behavior. Co-relational research is further divided into two categories namely positive correlation ...

1. Explain the one-drop rule, the link between slavery and mass incarceration, and how these events lead to a theory of racial domination in the U.S. After the abolition, the US African-American community was subject to several racial regimes.

Nonetheless, every new stage entailed significant regression. It can be argued that the contradiction between the institutionalized racial superiority and democracy is rooted in historical and cultural processes The slavery era gave birth ...

How do the ministers and authorities view sex between men in colonial New England?

We have to remember that ministers, to a large degree, set the law of the land. As such, the view that ministers and authorities in Colonial New England took towards sex between men was that such an action was deviant. Many laws during this time were actually sexual in nature, and sex between men was no exception. Ministers viewed such actions as being a direct threat to the social order of the day, and certain a violation of Puritan ideals. Sodomy was often viewed as one of the most, if not the most, severe of sexual crimes and could ...

Hegel's philosophy is the culmination of the German philosophy development, which began from Kant.

Introduction Back in the first century AD, Stoic philosopher Epictetus observed that people become disturbed “not so much by events as by the views which they take of them” (Scott and Dryden, 2003). With this observation, Epictetus seemed to point out that, in viewing all the objects found in the visual world, situations are viewed from some distinctive angles than from others, and humans have the freedom to choose their orientation. This personal orientation, on the other hand, is influenced by a person’s beliefs and how they see themselves in relation to the world. How people view certain ...

One of the major tenets that should be understood prior to analysis is the basic framework upon which the European doctrines of justice regarding liability have been established. The European Union is based on the express governance of the “multidimensional polities that recognize different levels of governance, each with the acknowledged power to regulate within a sphere of competence.” In this case, the tenets of EU liability law are essentially the result of the need to present the ability for those who come under the actions of the member states to be given a legal means for representation within ...

INTRODUCTION

In the essay, “Censorship and the Imposition of Form”, Pierre Bourdieu begins with a definition for the word ‘skewed’. He states that when used in a grammatical context, it points to phrases which first seem to introduce a particular meaning, but go on to denote an entirely different one (Bourdieu, 1991). This idea is introduced by Bourdieu so that he develops a debate regarding the potential of language to establish authority, secure a powerful position, structure prospects for emblematic profit and establish limitations within a given field. Bourdieu writes that censorship is never quite as perfect or invisible as ...

Political Policy in the USA and its impact (Marijuana)

Introduction Although there are various polices and theories that have been formulated and implemented in relation to marijuana usage, evidence available suggest that the current removal of the prohibition of the possession of marijuana does not increase its usage amongst the citizens. Apparently, these prohibitions are more harmful than they were thought before. For instance, studies have shown that legalizing marijuana does not increase its usage. In 1973, around 13 USA states enacted versions of laws that led to the decriminalization of marijuana in their states. In each of these states, marijuana users did not have to face jail ...
