The Effective Variable On Beliefs About Organ Donation, Sarah M. Brunhoeber
The Effective Variable On Beliefs About Organ Donation, Sarah M. Brunhoeber
Electronic Theses & Dissertations
Limited research has been conducted over the beliefs affecting organ donation. The current literature that does exist offer conflicting results, especially concerning race and religion. A study at a university in the Midwest reported that there was a difference in support of organ donation between different races. This is the case throughout the literature. These factors leave organ procurement centers and society, in general, with little definitive information from which to draw conclusions. Without this valuable information, it may prove difficult to determine how to increase both awareness and donation rates. This study found that the major factors affecting a …
Emerson, Virtue, And Evil: Thoughts For A Rescue Operation, Lois M. Eveleth
Emerson, Virtue, And Evil: Thoughts For A Rescue Operation, Lois M. Eveleth
Faculty and Staff - Articles & Papers
Interpretations of Emerson's theme of self-reliance which generate charges that he understood neither evil nor virtue are inappropriate. A fairer reading should keep in mind the Neo-Platonism of Plotinus, which gave to Transcendentalism a dynamic emanation/return schema and to mankind a place of privilege in knowing and valuing Nature.
Some Doubts About Argument By Hypothetical, Paul H. Robinson
Some Doubts About Argument By Hypothetical, Paul H. Robinson
All Faculty Scholarship
In his paper, Why the Successful Assassin Is More Wicked than the Unsuccessful One, Leo Katz "pick[s] up the gauntlet [Sandy] Kadish throws down" to offer a nonconsequentialist justification for giving significance to resulting harm and, in particular, to justify the common practice of punishing attempts less than the completed offense. In one sense, I may not be the ideal person to serve as critic. I am not one of those who, like Kadish and others, does not believe in the significance of resulting harm in assessing blameworthiness (people whom Katz calls the "luck- skeptics" but to whom I will …

The American Board's Single Missionary Women In American Indian Missions, 1810–1860, Lisa Jacqueline Travis
The American Board's Single Missionary Women In American Indian Missions, 1810–1860, Lisa Jacqueline Travis
Theses and Dissertations - UTB/UTPA
Between 1810 and 1860 in American Indian missions, single missionary women comprised half of the female workforce in the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions (ABCFM). Because the ABCFM operated as a business for converting and assimilating American Indians, it hired single women to perform vital and various tasks. Missionary couples requested that the ABCFM appoint single women to teach, perform domestic work, and care for mission children. Biographically, they resembled each other, but their reasons for becoming missionaries varied. Some single women became missionaries after lifelong dreams, but others because the suggestion was made. As workers, some were …
Irrelevancy Of God: Criticism Of The Rational Religious Paradigm, Boaz Ahad Ha'am
Irrelevancy Of God: Criticism Of The Rational Religious Paradigm, Boaz Ahad Ha'am
Undergraduate University Honors Capstones
The author looks at works that call for the assimilation of philosophy with religion. The capstone questioned the rationality of this logic by taking a closer look at the Real Religious Paradigm. It is argued that one cannot claim to be Rational and Religious at the same time without compromising either position, therefore no person can be RRP unless they are nonsensical.

Earth And Stars In The Cosmology Of Xenophanes, Alexander P.D. Mourelatos
Earth And Stars In The Cosmology Of Xenophanes, Alexander P.D. Mourelatos
The Society for Ancient Greek Philosophy Newsletter
The doxography for Xenophanes of Colophon unambiguously attributes to him a theory that all the meteora, i.e. all 'objects suspended above us' or 'objects seen in the sky' are different types of clouds. My concern in this paper is with two sets of assumptions that are likely to have framed Xenophanes' theory: a) assumptions concerning the size and shape of the eareth, and b) assumptions concerning the motions of the fixed stars.

Invisible Lines Of Connection: Sacred Stories Of The Ordinary, Lawrence Kushner
Invisible Lines Of Connection: Sacred Stories Of The Ordinary, Lawrence Kushner
Richard L. Horwitz Lecture on Ethics
Lawrence Kushner has served as Rabbi of Congregational Beth El in Sudbury, Massachusetts, a suburb of Boston, for the past 27 years and is widely regarded as one of the most creative religious writers in America. Through his lectures, articles and ten books, he has helped shape the present agenda for personal and institutional spiritual renewal.
He originated the concept of synagogue havurot, family fellowship groups, led his congregants to publish their own prayerbook, V'Tahaer Libenu (Purify Our Hearts), the first gender-neutral liturgy ever written, and has conducted over seventy-five kalla weekends for personal religious growth. He was the …

What's So Special About A Special Ethics For Business?, Earl W. Spurgin
What's So Special About A Special Ethics For Business?, Earl W. Spurgin
Philosophy
In business ethics literature, debate over a special ethics generally has framed examination of the rules governing business. By constructing a dilemma faced by proponents of a special ethics, I argue that this framing is misguided. Proponents must adopt either an insular or a derivative conception. The former, the view that business is insulated from moral rules, is problematic because arguments used to support it force proponents to accept the idea that each aspect of life is insulated from moral rules. This idea, however, renders philosophically insignificant the claim that business has a special ethics. Proponents no longer make a …
Literary And Poetic Performance In Plato's Laws, Gerard Naddaf
Literary And Poetic Performance In Plato's Laws, Gerard Naddaf
The Society for Ancient Greek Philosophy Newsletter
Plato’s evaluations of the written and spoken word are complex, even ambiguous. On the one hand, he clearly privileges the give-and-take oral conversation as the paradigm for philosophical discussion, and on the basis of this paradigm he offers strong critiques of the written word, notably in the Phaedrus and Letter 7. On the other hand, he is a most famous enemy of the oral performance of poetry − notwithstanding the fact that in the Republic he gives ‘music’ a prominent place in education. When we turn to the Laws, we encounter another aspect or dimension of Plato’s thinking about the …
Thinking, Thought And Nous In Aristotle's De Anima, Michael Bowler
Thinking, Thought And Nous In Aristotle's De Anima, Michael Bowler
The Society for Ancient Greek Philosophy Newsletter
Michael Wedin in his “Tracking Aristotle’s Nous’’ wishes to argue that the most plausible interpretation of De Anima, Book III, chapter 5 is . .that these chapters provide the essentials of a thoroughly finitistic account of individual noetic activity.” I want to argue that Wedin’s account is not the most plausible interpretation of Aristotle’s theory of individual noetic activity. I think Wedin’s interpretation misses a crucial distinction between the actualization of mind and the being of mind, insofar as he argues that mind is identical simpliciter with its object in the act of knowing when in fact, for Aristotle, mind …
