The study of human behavior is one of the most fascinating of all the sciences. What makes people think, feel and act the way they do? Why do some people traverse life with ease while others struggle with patterns of behavior that sabotage their happiness? What makes one person violent and antisocial and another agreeable and a team player? Why do some people with all the worldly possessions imaginable including a supportive and loving family fall into the depths of depression while others lacking even the most necessary of human needs seem to maintain a zest for life? And Continue reading...

Mixed Media on Canvas

Renowned for his visceral aesthetics, black humor, and provocation, Llyn Foulkes has remained at the periphery of the art establishment because he overtly rebels against commercialism by deploying novel painting techniques and creating diverse corpus of artwork. He opines about the dehumanization of the individual vis-à-vis a bureaucratic process in The Suspension, whereby humans merely become case numbers due to the advent of new and innovative technologies. A headless female figure is placed at the center of the canvas, layered on top of a cross and a realistic looking back of a human body that has several rashes Continue reading...

Religion is necessary for humans and human civilization. Mankind has had religion ever since the existence of independent thought. Regardless of faith or beliefs, it can be argued that man has worshiped some sort of deity, be it the sun or highly intelligent beings. Religion does play an important part in our lives, because it enables us to look a little deeper beyond what is manifested in the physical realm. It opens the world up and tries to satisfy mankind’s thirst for not only knowledge, but the absolute truth.
It is necessary for humans to think about the Continue reading...

Introduction

David Hull has established new standards for close connection between science and the philosophers of science. He has demonstrated that philosophical study of science can be initiated into the actual development of science as contestable and important commentary. In Hull’s search for comprehending the scientific procesapiess, he has embarked on an intensely naturalistic course. He has also avoided a prescriptive epistemology and a descriptive approach that lacks any general insight into the world of scientific knowledge. In both these accounts, Hull’s work has the view of, if not a science of science; it should be a natural Continue reading...

In the seminal collection of works known as the Analects, renowned Chinese scholar Confucius declared: “Men’s natures are like; it is their habits that carry them far apart” (Myers, 2008). Determining and assessing the extent that human characteristic traits and behaviors are governed by the environment and/or genetics is critical from a theoretical standpoint and view within the field of psychology. Humans indeed share an adaptive capacity that has emerged as a hallmark trait of fundamental human behaviors (Myers, 2008, p. 71). As such, basic, normative, and physical human traits such as having symmetrical two ears and two Continue reading...

Descartes’ Meditations is an exceptional work not because it lays downs the groundwork for any particular truth or even because it contains any immutable truth. Its worth lies in the fact that it was the first time a single person had formulated a single system of philosophy from which to derive all other thoughts from – he laid the groundwork for people to think and investigate on their own. In other words, he laid the foundations for the Enlightenment and the liberation of Europe from the myths and superstitions of the Middle Ages. One of the most fascinating sections in Continue reading...

According to the belief of Hsun Tzu, the nature of human being is evil and that goodness if the result of conscious activity. His stand is the opposite of Mencius’ view point wherein the other philosopher argues that the nature of human is good. Both have good points and arguments pertaining to their stand on the nature of humans. In one of the expert of Mencius’ works, he had a conversation with his peers and mentioned how he gives honor to those who are superior to him and how he make it a point to do good. On the Continue reading...

Religion has always remained central to America's sense of mission both abroad and at home and to the national narrative. This observation can be transposed onto various geographical contexts despite the salient belief that religion and modernity are antithetical entities and belief systems ().

Indeed, the relationship between religion and law have profound implications for political, social, and legal issues that pertain to constitutional rights to the freedom of belief and religion as well as the nexus Continue reading...

Introduction

The type of relationship that human beings have with animals has been the subject of many debates. More importantly, there have been intense discussions on how we as people treat animals, in general. Some members of society feel that that it is unacceptable to abuse animals in a manner that does not cater to the interest of their species. Even though it is tolerable to use animals under certain circumstances, such as for domestic and industrial purposes, people should strive to be humane in the process. The interests of human beings and animals should not conflict with each other Continue reading...

Historically myths have served the purpose of answering basic yet unanswerable human questions as to how or why this world, this universe or humans themselves exist. Myths have helped assuage the anxiety that ignorance causes and allowed humans to weave symbolic tales that helped explain real phenomenon (Kluckhohn 49). Over time myths evolved into religions and then were greatly challenged by the advent of science and technology. In today’s age myths exist in various forms. Despite the domination of science and rationality myths survive because they provide a rich literary resource as in the Greek mythology, or the Continue reading...

The world is a greenhouse. The role of the atmosphere is to insulate and warm the surface of the earth. The greenhouse effect is not a new phenomenon. Humans can help reduce the increasing greenhouse effect. The atmosphere insulates and warms the surface of the earth. Incoming solar radiation passes through the atmosphere. The surface of the earth absorbs some of the radiation. The unabsorbed radiation is emitted back out in the form of infrared radiation. Gases, such as, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and water vapor absorb the reflected infrared radiation. These gases re-emit infrared radiation, some of Continue reading...

Science fiction is concurrently an escape from reality while also remaining a “way of looking to see what’s behind” (Barlow 110). As such, it blends reality with the human imagination in order to articulate a narrative that conveys the very essence of modernity. Aaron Barlow, an English professor and New York College of Technology, underscores this binary between reality and human imagination as an intrinsic feature of science fiction as a literary genre, thereby rendering realism the antithesis to the imagination (105). Moreover, Barlow contends that Ray Bradbury, a seminal American author in science fiction, mystery and horror Continue reading...

In response to Nagel, Westphal and Cherry critique Nagel's proposition which is based on an assumption of meaningless of life. In contrast to Nagel, Westphal and Cherry propose people appreciate plans and projects which are taken seriously in life and are "bound to commitment or "pretensions" about what is done in life" (Westphal and Cherry, 199). According to Westphal and Cherry, creative lives in arts and science represent most fulfilling examples of one's self. Put differently, a creative life led by an artist or a scientist is one which has an internal view of life as opposed to Nagel's Continue reading...
