Abstract:

In this dissertation I explore how Hegel conceives of the practice of religion. Religion for Hegel cannot be the relationship between humans and a transcendent being, since, as I argue, Hegel's God is not a being of the transcendent sort, but reason as Idea and spirit. Nor does Hegel primarily understand religion as feeling or immediate experience of the divine. According to Hegel, religion involves knowledge of the truth in the form of representation, and I discuss the truths that in his view are common to all religions, as well as the principle that he thinks guides the development of the

Abstract:

L'on ne saurait conférer à l'œuvre de Walter Benjamin (1892-1940), éclatée dans plusieurs écrits parmi lesquels de nombreux essais de critique littéraire, une unité assimilable à une discipline scientifique. Fragmentaire et inclassable, elle correspond pourtant à la recherche d'une expérience supérieure, qui serait à la fois « religieuse et historique ». En partant de cette indication contenue dans son célébre texte programmatique écrit en 1918 « Sur le programme de la philosophie qui vient », nous comprenons les notions de religion et d'histoire dans la perspective d'une réflexion sur l'expér

The effect of self-concept on academic achievement of low socio-economic children was investigated. The study was to determine the relationship between the self-concept to the academic achievement of the culturally deprived child in the sixth grade at Carver Elementary School in Terrell County, Georgia. The total sample population consisted of one hundred sixth grade students randomly selected from the school free lunch program. They were selected on the basis of their low socioeconomic background and low academic achievement in mathematics. Sixty-two girls and thirty-eight boys were selected.

Tawātur is the concept that if we obtain the same information through a sufficient number of independent channels, we reach certainty about that data. When applied to the transmission of Qur'ān and hadith texts, tawātur can serve as a means by which to assert the truth of a source-text, which in turn has implications for correctness of the religious belief or practice that is conveyed by the text, and hence the orthodoxy of one accepting or rejecting it.<br>Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations

Abstract:

Two texts by Nishitani, written ten years apart, reflect a very different position on the nietzschean question of the overcoming of nihilism. Although a student of Heidegger's at Freiburg between 1936 and 1939, Nishitani shows no evidence of a heideggerian influence in The Self-Overcoming of Nihilism. In this period (1949), he considers, contrary to Heidegger, that the affirmative aspects of nietzschean philosophy constitute a radical overcoming of nihilism. It is only in What is Religion? (1961) which appears in 1982 as Religion and Nothingness (English translation) that his view changes, ref

Abstract:

This study focuses on three basic issues raised in the writings of Dietrich Bonhoeffer (1906-1945): (1) The "weakness of God," which goes hand in hand with the "scandal of the cross"; (2) Freeing Christianity from the concept of religion; (3) The "world come of age": its relevance for believers and non-believers alike. An enlightened critique of religion in no way equates joining the 'death of God' school; and the current demise of the visible church does not herald the downfall of Christian faith. The conclusion expresses the firm hope that a world shaped by two thousand yea

Abstract:

This thesis proposes that Egyptian tomb painting served as a housing for the Ka. The research examined the relationship between the tomb paintings and the Ka within the contemporary religious literature finding that they served this purpose. The first relationship incorporates the "Opening of the Mouth" ceremony which returns life to the deceased in both the texts and illustrations. The ambiguous nature of the texts refers the returning of life to the deceased. This includes all the parts of the soul (Ka, Ba, and Akh) and all physical and artistic representations.

The second chapter looks at the image of the divine warrior, with particular emphasis on the chaos enemy as the dragon/serpent/sea, and the remarkable similarities between Isa 27:1 and the Ugaritic KTU 1.5.i.1–5.

Abstract:

This paper will examine the notion of altruism in blood donation as discussed in Richard M. Titmuss's, The Gift Relationship: from human blood to social policy. We consider Titmuss's views and assumptions about altruism and conclude that Titmuss's account of altruism is not incompatible with a religious motivation such as 'regard for the other' found in the concept of covenant. We propose that the covenant relationship between persons and/or institutions obliges those within the relationship to affirm responsibility for one another that in turn deepens altruistically based relationships as pro

Whilst certain details of his theory are contentious and inadequate, they are not beyond redemption.
