Status Of Women In Islam
1,931 words

in Islam constitutes no problem. The attitude of

alien influences, this question would have never
arisen among the Muslims. The status of woman was
taken for granted to be equal to that of man. It

Father Figure Single Parent
1,260 words
It is a common belief that the decline of
fatherhood is one of the most basic, unexpected,
and extraordinary social trends of our time
(Tischler, 2001, p. 19). However, the opposing
view of this standpoint is that there is no
decline in fatherhood. There are very few people
saying that they doubt the fundamental importance
of mothers, yet there are those that believe that
the importance of a father figure is diminishing
(Tischler, 2001). There are even those who see the
father position in a fami...

Neo Nazis And Free Speech

Neo-Nazis are entitled to the same First Amendment
rights under the Constitution as all other
American citizens. Simply because a group
expresses beliefs which are unpopular and

that the group is no longer entitled to free
speech. When people are given true freedom of
speech, it should be understood that there are
always going to be differences in opinions, and
