be explained from two distinct points of view.
Some would argue that scientific explanations are

others would argue that religion and the story of
creation found in Genesis I and II provide a

used in determining the beginning of our world and
its people. Religion and science both have the

is defined as "a set of moral principle or values.

children are the future of America. However it is
apparent that our society is faced with many moral
issues that make it difficult to raise a

been gradual slippage of society's integrity as
shown in Stephen L. Carter...

stronger families must be the solution. Widespread
evidence of moral decay can be found in nearly

our thoughts has been the idea that the self is
the capacity to have capacities. Through what we
have read, written about, and discussed, we have
been trying to come up with our own answers to the
questions about the self; what a capacity is, how
we find them, which ones are essential to human
flourishing, what we do with them once they are
found? Yet all of these questions lead us to
answer that final and defining question of 'what
is the 'truth'...
