said, “She’d get equal pay for women even if they don’t do an equal amount of work.” This remark really aggravated me. If I work at a store with a woman and she works way harder than I do then I don’t deserve or expect the same pay as her. That’s sending a bad message to children all across the country. The gender gap issue doesn’t just involve salary. The “Feminism” movement is currently a big thing going on in our society. Their entire stance is based around women not only being equal to…
While science aims to explain particular events and generalizations with the laws of nature, religion aims to explain the same things without being confined to the laws of nature. Religion seeks supernatural explanations to explain the phenomena that science cannot including global why questions, necessary beings, and why the laws of nature are so simple. The conversation between religion and science is often seen as a conflicting debate but Instead of dismissing science and religion as…
Everyone deserves to be able to get recognition for something they helped or worked on, right? Well it seems that all that is not going down very well with women. These women have been cheated and lied about. But why? People have not been very nice to women through science, in fact you could even say that they were being very sexist. Take for example Jocelyn Bell Burnell, she discovered those little pulsars from the stars in the universe that went supernova. This took her dedication, and most…
change to the old practices of the science department. The movement grows slowly to fight the inequalities for scientist women and scientist color people to rise up for the power structure.

stories: “The Birthmark” and “Rappaccini’s Daughter”; which show how nature and science can both be positive and negative. But while they are written by the same author and have the same general message, when looking deeply at the texts, a different theme and narrative can arise. The stories of “The Birthmark”, “Rappaccini’s Daughter”, and the poem “The Tables Turned” show the different facets of the struggle of science versus nature, while emphasizing the pursuit of perfection, examining…
with learning new point of views from others. Though it’s a set of values and beliefs from other people it wasn’t proven because many people had their own beliefs and interpretation. When it came to the science part of it which came around in the 17th centuries it gave a new look on religion and science which lead to reasons of truth.

burgers. The refrain was “I’ve never been good at math,” and then, “I’ll ask my boyfriend.” Even among enlightened young women, it seems socially acceptable to believe that men are inherently better at math than women. Thirty-eight years ago, psychologists at Johns Hopkins University suggested that the gap in mathematics may be due to the “superior male mathematical ability.” Women, myself included, seem to have bought into this narrative to our detriment and this controversial statement has led…
