The meaning of the words nature has different connotations, and these connotations have changed according to the changing views of society. Thus, the definition of the word “nature” is more fluid than words on a page might indicate. The etymology of the word comes from the Latin “nat,” meaning to be born. This word morphed into the more current - at least in terms of language - “natura,” which has several different meanings. The first meaning of this root is the idea of birth. From a religious ...

Introduction A hashtag is an official word found in the OED which promotes ideas that are propagated in professional and academic institutions. Hashtags are mainly used in social media forums.

It is difficult to make someone believe in something unprecedented, but the church was able to do it. It is difficult to keep the influx of non-believers, but the church was always doing so until the freedom of speech and thought, of course. Many simply believe, without even thinking about religion as such. Religion is a kind of reunion of the broken relationship with God, or lifestyle based on a belief in the supernatural power. Religious ideas, rules, basics are described in the sacred books, which allegedly have been dictated by God. Of course, no one can currently prove ...

Realizing that applying traditional cost-cutting methods of reducing overheads and attracting the new customers is no longer effective, the business community becomes focused on considering innovative approaches as the only effective method of keeping afloat and expanding the market shares ( ...

Nurses have to face different concerns while on duty because they serve different patients from different locations and religions on a daily basis. To address these concerns, a majority of the issues considered as an ideal show that the community has a varied way of looking at everyday existence. The aspect of humanity is quite different from many, yet, they all agree that something higher and more supreme than humanity exists. The acceptance of this differs from one person to the other, an aspect that shows a different way of observing the concept of one’s life. Nurses must ...

Obviously, there can be two sources of creation – inside and outside. If something cannot create itself then, to come into being it has to be created by something or someone else, i.e. have ...

Introduction

Initially, the problem of evil was tied to the syllogism that everything was created by God and since evil is a thing, therefore evil was also created by God. However, this approach to the problem of evil was devastating to Christians core belief of God being an omnibenevolent God. St. Augustine, therefore, sought to provide a solution to the problem and formulated an approach that prompted two syllogisms which stated that, according to the bible, all of Gods creation are good. Evil cannot be considered as good. Therefore, evil is not a part of God’s creation. The second ...

People by their curious nature always wanted to find answers to all mysteries and secrets of the world. They are interested in different things and phenomena around them, look for reasons of their existence and could not pass over even the smallest details of their appearance. One of the most complicated mysteries of this universe is probably the creation of the world itself. Even in modern times humans did not manage to solve this eternal question. The truth is that it seems almost impossible to authentically explain how everything was actually created. Throughout the history there existed different theories ...

Introduction

The notion of "nothing" is one of the most important and controversial concepts in the history of humankind. Its etymology is quite interesting for the consideration, as it can discover many different mysteries associated with the most important knowledge. In addition, the perception of this idea may be absolutely controversial, if one talks about it in the framework of religion and philosophy of the Western and the Eastern worlds. Nothing is everything, and at the same time, it is a lack of everything. This notion has a negative connotation; it denies everything to what it is opposed; moreover, it ...

Prayers are important in the life of an individual dedicated to religion. This is because prayer gives a person hope and gets them strong in the faith to the point of holding onto the creator. Prayer should, therefore, be upheld at all times, and they should practised at intervals during the day just like food. Prayer tends to connect a faithful with his creator as it is a way of communicating between the creator and the faithful. This, therefore, means that for prayers to be effective, they need to have a purpose as well as strong faith. My prayer ...

Abstract

The worldview of a person is their view and understanding of their entire existence, including the world they live in. Religious beliefs reflectcolor a person’s worldview very strongly. In a comparative look, Christianity and Sikhism have some commonality as monotheistic approaches to the world, in the necessity for moral and ethical behavior that is good, in seeking truth, and in serving an all-knowing God Wwho imparts some of that knowledge to mankind. However, there are noticeable differences in beliefs about death and afterlife, human definition, and the meaning of human history. These beliefs structure their worldviews ...

The Monster created by Frankenstein is unlike other humans in appearance, with a strange physical look and gigantic height. Following the rejection by his creator, he seeks to find acceptance in the human community and tries to belong and feel part of the human population. His quest for self-discovery reveals the judgmental nature of humans, and portrays him as vengeful and willing to anything to fulfill his quest unlike other characters that have limits.

A key issue within photographic practice and culture is the establishment of perspective regarding the influence that the self and the underlying aesthetic preferences and expectations that are brought to the art. These preferences demonstrate an essential aspect of valuation in regards to not only the perceptions that are held by those viewing the art and their understanding of beauty but also the level of awareness or unawareness that the photographer has in their composition and viewpoint at the point of the photograph's creation. The idea of the unawareness about the self-knowing as a common phenomenon in our society, ...

Islam holds that the human predicament is ‘forgetfulness.' Meaning, many human beings have the tendency of ‘forgetting’ that Allah is their Creator and should, therefore, serve Him and obey his instructions. As a result, they do not demonstrate gratitude or surrender towards their creator (Smith 222). Nonetheless, Allah presents a solution – guidance. Guidance is given through the Quran, which is the holy book, and Muhammad as a living example. Through these two elements, an individual should be able to overcome the human predicament. The Bible too discusses issues of forgetfulness, or in another term, ignorance, and guidance. However, ignorance ...

Poverty and Religiosity as Bridges to other Faiths

Poverty does not choose who to strike or who not to, and neither does it focus on one religion over the other. However, many people believe that poverty is dictated by a specific religion, a speculation which is not true. This discussion will focus on the following characteristic that explains religion and poverty as a bridge to other faiths; Intense Social Stratification, Omnipresence of Poverty, The Transience of Life, and Philosophical Detachment with Africa as the specific community.

Intense social stratification

Social stratification is the act of forming hierarchies among people so as to distinguish one group from another. Most of these ...

That a man should hate oneself is a common phenomenon, which everyone experiences once in a while, because of people’s intrinsic flaws. These flaws ramify into people’s creations such that there is not one thing a man has created, which does not have to endure a measure of hatred from the rest of society. The creature in Frankenstein is no different from men’s inventions, whose hideous nature was not apparent at the time of their inception, and abhorred for what passed as evil yet not appreciated for the utility its creator envisaged. The guiding question for ...

Two of the most important existential philosophers have been Albert Camus, well known for both his novels and his philosophy, and Jean Paul Sartre, who, is aligned with the ideas of existentialism more than any other philosopher.

For Camus, the absence of god was one of the reasons why man could find the nature of existence meaningless, and his ...

It is believed by many scholars like Ellen Moers, who wrote Female Gothic: The Monster’s Mother that when Mary Wollstonecraft Shelly wrote Frankenstein, she wrote the story as a reflection of her own fears and issues with parenting. I also think that Shelley may have felt that her offspring were somehow against the laws of nature and that this is why most of them died at birth or in early infancy. Where Victor only had created life from the confines of death, she herself brought death from what should have been life. This of course was no fault ...

In the pursuit to explaining the creations, mankind has developed theories and beliefs to feed the curious minds. Transcendence is an important concept at understanding the theories and beliefs.

Thesis Statement: The story of Frankenstein by Mary Shelley is a story about the desire to use of modern industrial techno-science to create a new discovery may result to more harm than good. Just like the ancient Greek Prometheus, Shelley’s novel represents a modern industrial techno-science to create the character of Frankenstein. Compared to the story of Greek Prometheus, it sought to free his people by separating mortals from immortals, only to be reunited again in a festive, religious ritual (Jager 1). By contrast, Shelley’s novel explained that the combination of modern human science and scientific psychology ...

Creation is defined as the act of bringing something into existence, and the creation of man itself is normally attributed to procreation or an act of some divine being.

Abstract

The issue whether God really exist or it is just an imagination created in minds of people has been debated for centuries. Many scientists and philosophers believe that God does not exist. They have challenged believers to scientifically or logically prove that God really exists. Ontological arguments have been put in place by theology philosophers with the aim of proving, logically and scientifically, the existence of God. Philosophers such as Anselm and Aquinas have put across some logical arguments to prove that God really exists. On the other hand, some atheists such as Bertrand Russell have ...

Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine 2 (March 1818): 613-20—by Walter Scott

Scott’s thesis is essentially that supernatural or unnatural situations are permissible in literature as long as the characters still behave in human ways. "personages shall conduct themselves, in the extraordinary circumstances in which they are placed, according to the laws of probability, and the nature of the human heart."(Scott). In the story Frankenstein is portrayed as a man, who is educated, intelligent, well-liked and curious. This curiosity would lead him to create his creature as he sought to understand and control the nature of life and death. Scott points out that as the creature becomes more educated, ...

Cinema transformed from a tool to display attractions to a medium to express feelings in which directors convey their opinions and ideas.

Myths have been around longer than just about every other form of literature. From the beginning, it is clear that humanity has wanted some sort of explanation for the way the world works, and myths have long served that purpose. Whether it is the myth of Apollo driving his chariot across the sky each day to explain the bright light that traverses the sky (and to provide some sort of comfort that the gods are running things, even though the Greek gods certainly were not the benevolent sort) or the myth of Hades and Persephone’s twisted love that ...
