The Gospel of John is divided into three sections, one for each …
Human Subjects Protection In Research: Are We Doing Enough?, Marsha L. Green
Human Subjects Protection In Research: Are We Doing Enough?, Marsha L. Green
UNLV Theses, Dissertations, Professional Papers, and Capstones
Scientific research has produced substantial social benefits but has also posed troubling ethical questions with regard to the use and protection of human subjects. These questions have continued to be in the forefront of all biomedical and social research. The increased education of researchers on the subject of protection of human subjects has become of vital importance in the research world. This education involves program administrators, faculty, staff, students, research participants, and Institutional Review Board Committee (IRB) members. In this study of the University of Nevada, LasVegas (UNLV) human subjects’ protection program administration, the question to be answered was: has …

Faculty Diversity, Kyle Scafide, Barbara Johnson
Faculty Diversity, Kyle Scafide, Barbara Johnson
Kyle Scafide
This article presents a broad view of issues related to faculty diversity. Headings include Demographics, The Growth of Faculty Diversity as an Ideal, and Barriers in the Academic Workplace. Race, ethnicity, and gender are the most common characteristics that institutions observe in order to measure faculty diversity. An even broader approach to faculty diversity involves age, socioeconomic background, national origin, sexual orientation, and diverse learning styles and opinions. Until the latter part of the twentieth century, the professoriate in the western world was composed almost exclusively of privileged, heterosexual males of Caucasian descent. Higher education institutions are generally concerned with …
Lo Cotidiano: A Key Element Of Mujerista Theology, Ada María Isasi-Díaz
Lo Cotidiano: A Key Element Of Mujerista Theology, Ada María Isasi-Díaz
Journal of Hispanic / Latino Theology
Working with Latinas at the grassroots demonstrates that the true horizon of liberation, for women and for the community, opens from the level of everyday life and its struggles, en lo cotidiano. Even where liberation is figured in terms of structural transformation, the author urges theology to follow the insights of ordinary women: Structural change “must be rooted in lo cotidiano. Unless the changes we struggle to bring about impact the organization and function of lo cotidiano, structural change will not happen, and, if it happens, it will not last."
Conjoined Twins And Catholic Moral Analysis: Extraordinary Means And Casuistical Consistency, M. Cathleen Kaveny
Conjoined Twins And Catholic Moral Analysis: Extraordinary Means And Casuistical Consistency, M. Cathleen Kaveny
M. Cathleen Kaveny
This article draws upon the Roman Catholic distinction between “ordinary” and “extraordinary” means of medical treatment to analyze the case of “Jodie” and “Mary,” the Maltese conjoined twins whose surgical separation was ordered by the English courts over the objection of their Roman Catholic parents and Cormac Murphy-O’Connor, the Roman Catholic Cardinal Archbishop of Westminster. It attempts to shed light on the use of that distinction by surrogate decision makers with respect to incompetent patients. In addition, it critically analyzes various components of the distinction by comparing the reasoning used by Catholic moralists in this case with the reasoning used …

Interreligious Dialogue In Global Perspective, Lawrence E. Frizzell D.Phil.
Interreligious Dialogue In Global Perspective, Lawrence E. Frizzell D.Phil.
Selected Works of Lawrence E. Frizzell
The tensions between religions and political systems have been evident in intellectual and cultural contexts throughout human experience. In past ages, there has been a propensity for each culture or religion to assume that it embodied the best in every aspect of the human order. There is no longer any excuse for such narrowness spawned of ignorance to dominate the thinking of educated people. Yet mere tolerance of other approaches to the common challenges of humanity will not provide security for all, especially for minorities within a culture or for weaker societies in a given region striving to maintain their …
