After the release of Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band. As one views statistics about participation in organized religion that I have brought to light, so as to show that religion had become an important part of early twentieth century American culture, one might believe that this participation is the only way to gauge America’s feelings towards religion.

When I first got into art I was in 10th grade. There was an exhibition at the Mary Boone Gallery featuring Brooklyn street artist work; KAWS and I wanted to check his work in person because I never got the chance to. The exhibition featured his famous statues, “ALONG THE WAY” and paintings he’s done. KAWS is known for his whimsical cartoonish style of art. KAW is also affiliated in the street wear world after he launched his clothing label, Original Fake. He recently had his “ALONG THE WAY”…

The common misconception that science and faith are in constant conflict, each hoping to disprove the other, is prevalent in the minds of so many people today that it has led to the belief that one must be wrong and the other right. Most people would be quick to side with science since they can see the visible signs that science bases its conclusions off of. However, science and faith are not in conflict and neither hopes to disprove the other. Rather science and Christian faith work together in…

“ Chinese cosmology pictured the heaven round and the earth as a stable cube. Space was conceived as a series of imprecated squares, at the center of which lay the capital of the empire strictly oriented toward the points of the compass. And in its center the palace commanded the main north- south axis, facing southward (as did all important buildings) in the direction of the Red phoenix of summer and fire. To the east was the region of the blue Dragon, of spring and growth and the upright tree.…

legendary philosopher and mathematician. (O'Connor & Robertson, 1999d) As a young man, Pythagoras visited Thales in Miletus, and Thales had been able to create “a strong impression” upon Pythagoras. Pythagoras also attended Anaximander's lectures on cosmology and mathematics while in Miletus; these also influenced him. (O'Connor & Robertson, 1999d) Pythagoras taught that the earth was a sphere, and he is claimed to be the first man to do so. (Mcclung,2011) However, according to Mcclung, there…

or she should not regard attitudes towards non-biological causes of illness as mere superstition which will fade with education. Even Twumasi (1975: 119), predicted that the spread of Western education would result in “an eclipse of traditional cosmology”. Quite the contrary, in much of the region today, both traditional and Western medicine are regarded as legitimate. Beliefs in traditional medicine persevere through even high levels of Western medical education. A majority of Nigerian medical…

1.1 Why Postcolonialism? It is difficult to say what postcolonialism exactly is. There is no ‘tradition’ per se as there is a philosophical tradition for deconstruction or psychoanalytical theory. In anti-colonial movements and postmodern critique of colonialism as a project of modernity one can find ideas that preceded postcolonial theory. The most important feature of postcolonialism is a shift in the dominant ways in which relations between Western and non-Western people and their worlds were…

This is particularly important in concepts that involve past events, which cannot be tested. Take, for example, the Big Bang Theory or the Theory of Biological Evolution as it pertains to the past; both are theories that explain all of the facts so far gathered from the past, but cannot be verified as absolute truth, since we cannot go back to test them. More and more data will be gathered on each to either support or disprove them. The key force for change in a theory is, of course, the…
