Kant attributes Hume as his inspiration to the critique of pure reason as Hume’s work motivated him to prove Hume wrong. Specifically, Kant worked against Hume’s concept of causation. Where Hume found no necessity in causation nor of causation, Kant found causation necessary in both senses- otherwise no one would be able to navigate the world.

But surge forth it did, and by the twentieth-century the West , for better or worse, had come to dominate and influence societies around the globe. As the…

A particularly concerning effect of GE is its contribution of introducing a new gene in a product that has never been present. The process of creating gmo’s alters the DNA’s natural state, which in turn can cause mutations, deletion of a chromosomal segment, and a change in gene expressions. As a result from GE the introduction of new genes inserted could result in raising the levels of an existing allergen or produce a new and unknown allergen. In addition, it could also transfer the DNA of a…

modular nature? As a thinking thing, even if the processes behind my thoughts can be broken down into disparate parts, I feel as though I am one. However, the subjective feeling of unity among parts is not enough to characterize the nature of such a conglomerate of parts as singular. Take the example of a powerful ant colony. Viewed at the macro level, one might view the colony as a single organism responding to its environment and seemingly having particular goals. At the micro level, of…

(I have mentioned in a previous chapter how there is a recommended space for how far apart beds should be from each other and that most sleeping facilities have beds much close together than the recommendation. This Centre was no exception). I am a light sleeper and always have been, so I am glad was not put into situation like this as a preschooler. We have all had bad experiences of staying over at someone else’s place for a few days and maybe as long as couple of weeks and getting very…
