Founders of religions

I actually started to understand why people have a religion. It’s like a community of people and they are all so close, their religion unites them in a way that I’ve never really gotten to experience. The service was much shorter than I expected, but it was still my favorite service of any religion. At the end we got to ask two women about the faith. One was a younger wife and her children and the other was an old woman. They…

Ever since the advent of religion, there has seemed to be strife among competing religious groups. Many groups want to impose their vision of religion upon the world and please their version of God. Entire wars were fought over religious domination, the most infamous of which being the Crusades. It was not until the great American experiment that the concept of pluralism and religious tolerance was implemented legally in a nation. The Founding Fathers seemed to settle the debate, but today,…

The fundamental nature of the Christian worldview is heavily reliant on the validity of the Incarnation. To blatantly assume that there is no empirical proof to provide validity for the occurrence of the Incarnation entails a foundational logical fallacy. For historical proof will be interpreted within the context of an individual’s philosophical beliefs, and can by affect be perceived inaccurately. Thus, a philosophical analysis to confirm the foundational truth of the Incarnation must precede…

Giving up can better be defined as the ceasing of belief that something you wish to happen might be possible. In the autobiography Night written by Elie Wiesel, a Jew during World War II, who was sent to a concentration camp, we witness an example of a prisoner of war giving up. Wiesel has strength until the very end of his journey and right before liberation by the americans he looses hope as his father passes away. In life, many prisoners give up hope because of the fear they will never see…

Rousseau speaks about the origin of inequality that deals with the genuine knowledge of human nature. Rousseau believes that we are like animals but we have some differences. He questions inequality of man then asked about men being deformed by society. The more knowledge we have the more we leave the primitive state. The basic difference between animals and humans is free will. Free will is the decision whether or not to listen to our insistent or impulses. If humans did not have free will then…

you can see it yourself. So a questioner doesn’t believe in faith. But in many religions faith is held up as an important standard of right. People that believe in questioner go after people that are religious. They argue that, “how do you know that god exist.” Children are told by their parents what religion to follow when they were toddler, but as children got older they never ask the question why we follow this religion. One of the argument of questioner is parents tell their children what…

We all agree that raping children is bad. We all agree that the Holocaust is a bad thing that happened. We all assert it is wrong to do such things. These things imply an objective morality and that a code of ethics does exist and that we do follow them. Affirmation is something that we use to find ourselves and find each other. We affirm this objective morality. We are all linked together through these beliefs. It is a sense of comfort, sanity and having a sense of a law and order. There are…

Human beings are, in some sense, enslaved to the production for the owners of factories on assembly lines. Our human nature arises from the historical condition and social structures. What it means to be a human and the question of who we are, comes from the need to reach out the meaning of our identity. In other words, what makes us what we are depends on the part that social institutions have played in a historically conditioned society, a society that has changed throughout time. The social…
