Seven Deadly Sins Paradise Lost
1,168 words
In Milton's Paradise Lost, sexuality is an innate
part of human nature. Milton celebrates Adam and
Eve's prelapsarian "connubial love" (PL, IV, 743),
singing "Hail wedded Love" (PL, IV, 750). In its
proper place in the hierarchy (below God), sex in
Milton's view is sacred and spiritual, sanctioned
by God. Sacred sex is portrayed almost as an
intellectual act rather than a physical act, as a
union of souls rather than a union of bodies. In
contrast, however, lascivious sex is associated
with best...

What would you think if I gave you a drug and said
this is going to help you but I want you to know
ahead of time that 50 % of the dose is not
affected, in fact the drug is 50 % not pure. The
idea of that would make you feel you want another
drug. The reality of that is that a large # of
drugs we give are 50 % impure and the reason is b

Kant Argues Kant Believes
1,722 words
Kant argues that there can be no rule by which
someone could be compelled to acknowledge that
something is beautiful. No one can use reasons or
principles to talk us into a judgment on whether
some garment, house, or flower is beautiful. What
does it mean to say something is beautiful? Even
though it appears to be a simple question it
becomes apparent that this is a very complicated
question and one of vital importance if we truly
wish to understand if someone could be compelled
to acknowledge t...

Simplicity is the keynote of Japanese dwelling
houses (Harada). In this way, Japanese
architecture moved away from its Chinese influence
to help form its own culture. Around the 9 th
century, Japanese Buddhism moved towards more
democratic and inclusive forms, of which the most
important was Pure Land Buddhism. Pure Land or

fully developed, union with God-consciousness is

consciousness in that location activates that

The Categorical Imperative Applied to a False
Promise In the Foundations of the Metaphysics of
Morals, Kant seeks to establish the supreme
principle of morality (Kant. 392), the categorical
imperative, to act as a standard to which actions
can be evaluated for their moral worth. Kant
believes that actions motivated by personal
experience, whether through observation,
indoctrination or some other capacity, lack moral
worth because such actions are not determined by
the conception of moral law. Wh...

Sense Of Duty Moral Law
890 words
Duty and Philosophy If philosophy itself is a
method of understanding, then there must first be
something present for it to understand, and Kant
identifies this something as the moral law. It is
this purity that Kant acknowledges to exist
without first needing to be perceived (which would
therefore rely on that perception to validate it),
and rightly claims as the absolute. He further
argues that since this true and pure is
omnipresent, then it is humanity's duty to hold
itself to it, no matter ...

Century B C Immortal Soul

Mystery cults greatly influenced the development
of Pythagoreanism as Pythagorean's adopted many of
their traditions, behaviors and beliefs.
Pythagoras, the founder of the Pythagorean's,
established a school in which he developed and
taught these adopted cultural behaviors and
beliefs. The nature of daily living in the school,
both its moral and its intellectual disciplines,
can perhaps best be understood as an
intellectualized development from earlier mystery
cults such as the Eleusinian (Wheel...

Are matter and spirit separate, or the same?
Although seemingly unrelated, these questions are
unified by the subject under consideration in this
paper: the Hindu caste system. The caste system
itself is unified by the concern of ritual purity.
According to the Encyclop? dia Britannica: the
caste system has been a dominating aspect of
social organization for thousands of years. A

be agreeing with me, because you say things lithe
forced labor is cleverly concealed which makes it
sound like you agree that even in your
counter-example the surgeon is still doing forced
labor. But at other points, you appear to be
arguing that a different injustice than forced
labor is achieving the same effe...
