Jewish Tradition Human Mind
1,704 wordsThe film segment chosen was the final scene from Stanley Kubrik^s 2001 A Space Odyssey made in 1968. As the name would suggest, the film is set almost entirely in the future. Already having projected itself over 30 years into the future, it would be safe to assume that this motion picture offers a wealth of imagery and futuristic vision. It does. It is towards the end of the film, however, that Kubrik offers this to us on a much greater scale. In these few minutes, we are presented with the dawn...

The Ozone A Hole In Theory
2,357 wordsThe protective ozone layer around our world undergoes much thought and debate. The "Hole", however, only exists in the minds of environmental, self-serving scientists and politicians. It interests many to find all the faults in the publics consensus of the "ozone depletion. " Most scientists do not believe in this "depletion", they think it is a natural phenomenon. Ozone gasses come into view as consideration over what gasses are actually accused for this awful crime of destroying the ozone. But...

Elderly Woman Human Race
1,849 wordsEddie Vedder Is A Vampire Although at first he may seem to be just your average angst ridden lead man for a popular rock and roll band, Eddie Vedder, the vocalist and lyricist for Pearl Jam, may very well be a vampire. Although it is impossible to tell, everything points to his being an immortal. An in depth analysis of his lyrics shows that Pearl Jams second album, ?

Man Of Action Rules And Regulations
3,354 wordsDostoevsky, Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, and Jaspers write of many important issues concerning our existence and society in general, but the one that interests me the most is the belief in the ignorance and stupidity of the majority of the human race. We are so narrow-minded, so asleep, so afraid of exploring ourselves and what is beyond this all-encompassing story we have created and in which we live (and ironically hate). These four philosophers all seem to see the big picture. Some wish they never...

Read And Write Write Poetry
349 wordsWe dont read and write poetry because its cute, we read and write poetry because we are members of the human race and the human race is full of passion. Mr. Keating said this to try to get his class to look beyond writing poems because the teacher told them to and because that is what they have done for years. But to write poems that meant something and had passion. In Fahrenheit 451, they use mans best friend, the dog, against man. I think the author picked the dog rather than another animal be...

Draw The Line Moral Obligations
1,804 wordsFamine, Affluence, and Morality Peter Singer Websters English Dictionary defines morality as: the conformity to ideals of right human conduct. With this in mind, I wonder who determines right human conduct? Religion aside, there is no literary context that strictly states the rights and wrongs of human behavior. So who decides? Who determines what we ought morally to do and what we are obligated to do as a society? An Australian philosopher, Peter Singer attempts to draw the line between obligat...

2,781 wordsFear is the quintessential human emotion. Some people live lives devoid of joy, happiness, and pleasure, but no one escapes the experience of fear and fear s companion, pain. We are born in fear and pain. Our lives are profoundly shaped by them, as well as our efforts to avoid them. Fear, experienced by every being of the human species, is an utterly unavoidable emotion.

Fire And Ice Human Race
511 wordsAfter reading this poem and being quite confused by it, I was determined to find out what it meant. Its simplicity is misleading because it can represent several opposites in the world today that correspond to fire and ice. To begin my understanding of the poem, I decided to answer some questions. First question was who is some? Some represents humans, which is not difficult to understand, but then some can also represent lovers. This poem is mainly about desire and hate. In the poem, fire repre...

No youre not, she wont believe you; Im older, snickered my sister, and with that she ran up the crowded walkway; which in the morning hour, looked much like a stampede of bulls. As I walked toward school, I listened to the distinctive chatter of my fellow civilians, smelled the exhaust fume filled air and listened to the bells and whistles of another pristine day.

Genetic Modification Human Race
632 wordsThe Genetic Modification Genetic Modification The idea of genetic modification is one of the biggest and most controversial issues in modern times. It is the manipulation of genes, transferring genetic material from one organism to another. The question we ask ourselves is it really necessary and is it cruel to the animal involved.

Mentally Handicapped Genetic Engineering
1,486 wordsImagine a world where only the genetically elite could get jobs. People who couldn t afford the gene-therapy would be left by the wayside.

1,942 wordsHow could cloning save a species from going EXTINCT? It has been stated by many scientists, particularly those in the region of Japan, who believe that cloning could be used to save a species from extinction by cloning the dying members of the breed that is going extinct. However, this would pose several problems immediately. The most apparent is that cloning is indeed a long way off (although our extinction is supposedly farther in time). Although no one knows when cloning will develop into a f...
