Faith, being an intangible concept, is almost indefinable. But there are theologians, like Soren Kierkegaard and Paul Tillich, who dared to define faith and its role in everyday life. There are similarities and differences between the interpretation of Kierkegaard and Tillich of faith, and some critics are not contented with or opposed to their ideas, particularly as regards the subject-object division. This paper argues that a thorough, critical analysis of the ideas of Kierkegaard and Tillich regarding faith will demonstrate both theologians remaining devoted to the conflict between the finite world and the infinite, unbounded realm. Kierkegaard often emphasizes ...

Change management is always a difficult issue, and the makeup of people in an organization—and that organization’s general culture—plays a very significant role in the way that change is handled as a whole. Most researchers suggest that there is a top-down approach that is necessary for appropriate integration of new ideas into institutional culture; change can occur and be accepted only if leadership begins the change process. In this particular discussion, we will discuss the use of the Change Management Simulation and the successes and failures during the duration of the simulation. In addition, assessments will ...

Institutional Racism towards Black Americans

Racism, as several experts describe, has been a way of life, for quite some time in the United States (Nesbit).
