Dignity Of The Human Person
... of God, to help us find our true situation while still acknowledging our dignity. Even though man was made in the light of god we have abused our liberty since the beginning. Although we knew God we worshiped the creature rather than the creator. But the very dignity of man helps him worship god in the body and forbids it to serve all evil found in his heart. Man judges rightly when he thinks that he is superior to everything else, except God, because of his pure capability to think and reason. In man’s history he has achieved many victories and still he searches for more truths.
In the depth of man’s soul he fin ...

The Importance Of Attitude
... the very foundation on which his or her life's experience has been, is,
and will be built. Every part of reality is the result of a person's
attitudes. In simple terms, our attitudes reflect what we expect from life.
This shouldn't be confused with what we want, dream or hope for. No one
wants to be unhappy, lead a boring life or look back over the years with
remorse and regret. Yet, so often rather than expecting the best life has
to offer, people expect much the opposite. They expect problems and get
problems; expect disappointments and are disappointed; expect to fail and
then, rather than experience the des ...

Observing Relations Between People And Their Eating Habits
... He was gesturing quite quickly with his hands and smiling as he spoke. It seemed to me that it must have been an amusing story because the other man laughed out loud and shook his head. Then the conversation returned to normal and they kept chatting for the next 45 minutes.
I then turned my attention to another table at which two Caucasian women in their mid thirties were seated at. The women like the men were drinking coffee and talking. They were at the food fair more for a quick visit than to eat while shopping. The women shared similar attributes, for example they both had short brown hair and wore dark clothi ...

Violence Due To The Media
... more acceptable in any other form? Profanity cannot harm a teenager or adult in any way since it is merely words. Children should not be exposed to it, so children should not be allowed to watch television shows with ratings that suggest that profanity is contained in the program. When a television ratings system was created, the necessity for censorship ended. The purpose of the ratings is to warn parents of the content, so all material should be allowed on TV since the viewer is warned beforehand of the shows level of maturity.
Television violence and vulgarity are not the only examples of unjust censorship. Who c ...

Sociological Perspectives
... believes that society lives in social order. All the institutions religion, school, workers unions, sports teams, etc. work together to keep society working as a whole. The family, for example, raises children and provides them with the love and nourishment children need. The family is not expected to thoroughly teach children about god. The church is there to provide the child with a religion to believe in. With both of those institution working together the child wouldn’t get both a good home and a healthy spiritual up bringing. Each one of the institutions is interdependent on the other.

Freedom
... here in America compared to other nations. Some that are changing faith will have a different answer. No matter who you are, or what you believe we each are free from something. After all, means you have a choice in something. Choice with wisdom is a pearl of great value. “TO” CHOICE = LIBERTY, so liberty is a choice, discretion, opportunity, alternatives, electives, prerogatives, options, variety, diversity, will, volition, the desire to do as we please, the to choose. Liberty tells that our choices are just and defensible because they do not impose disproportionately high costs on others to avoid the conseq ...

Family, Marriage, And Gender Roles
... Ranging from the conservative viewpoint to the more liberal view.
The conservative is the more traditional view of the two. Believing that the
only true family is the joint relationship of a husband, wife, and children is a
thing of the past. Recently an alarming number of unfavorable situations have
arisen. These situations range from one-parent families to the inexplicable
situation of two partners of the same sex. What happens to a society where the
nuclear family is no longer the dominant configuration? Only time will tell.
Being brought up in a traditional environment, I have very conservative

Welfare: Not A Way Of Life
... government set eligibility guidelines on a national basis, then parceled out money to the states to fund specific programs. Now, the federal money allocated for public assistance is sent to the states in block grants. The federal role is limited to setting goals, establishing financial penalties, and giving rewards (Froomkin, Dan). States and even counties are designing their own programs for the poor picking and choosing from approaches they hope will get results. Many of the new approaches require subjective judgments. A human being has to decide when individual recipients are ready for work and should be ...

Divorce
... perhaps even rebellious. Regardless, divorce is an activity
that has become common place in today's family structure, behavior, and morality.
When two people meet and decide their love is strong enough to carry
them to the next level marriage is usually the out come. Sometimes they decide
to have children and sometimes they don't, but when they do, it usually brings
them closer together. All parents have desires and hopes for their children.
The way in which parents achieve these ends can differ. Researchers do not
agree on which of the child-raising practices is best. But it is known that
parents provide ro ...

Parental Guidance Against Television Violence
... sends the message to children that violence is common and that "everyone's doing it"(Eron 617). This message desensitizes children and even numbs them to the reality of violence. By nature, children are naïve and inexperienced, so they need rules and regulations enforced by their parents for their own personal protection and well-being. Parents desire their children to grow up in a safe and stable environment and look to the government for support. However, our government can not be expected to support or solve the problems associated with censoring violent television programs.
One of the main reasons why ...
