Attempts to Understand Violence

These are theories from the fields of sociology and social psychology. They suggest explanations of complex behavior and soon become complicated themselves as they try to explain everything that comprises a pattern of violent behavior.

Information Centers in Ghana: A Blessing or A Curse?

Information dissemination is one of the essential elements that ensure good societal living. This is due to the fact that it always enlightens members of a society or nation on all happenings so as not to be in darkness. Thus, various avenues for information distribution have sprung up in the 21st century especially. It is so pervasive that the often neglected and marginalized members of the nation, local people, have their package. In most local communities and developing areas and developing areas in urban centers referred to as new sites in Ghana, there has been the establishment of numerous information centers. Many of these information centers are owned by individuals and Non-Governmental organizations. However, the content of their operations makes many people wonder whether these viable information distribution avenues are indeed a blessing or a curse.

The Way Things Used To Be

One cannot help wonder by looking at the events that are occurring around the world today that maybe we would all wish things were back the way they used to be. Long before the Internet and smart phones we managed quite nicely with rotary telephones and remoteless TV’s. We actually had to get up to change the TV channel.

Regarding the Antidote for Nuclear War

The philosopher, Plato, argued that aesthetic art appreciation was unethical, requiring an ethical spiritual wisdom through art in order to prevent the destructive property of unformed matter emerging from within the physical atom to destroy civilization. Later, in modern times, the philosopher, Immanuel Kant, agreeing with Plato, wrote that an asymmetrical electromagnetic field was evolving within the creative, artistic mind as the spiritual wisdom that Plato was searching for. In 2016 the antidote to the prevailing 3D epidemic of dysfunctional information transmitted from the manufacture of communication and information devices was discovered as being associated with Kant’s anticipated field. In 2017 American Universities created a time crystal, which demonstrated that prevailing science was erroneously governed by the second law of thermodynamics and that this new information about reality would be fused into artificial intelligence. Also in that year the Russian World Fund for Arts began to set up a science-art research program. If that program also fuses the antidote knowledge with artificial intelligence, the resulting 3D epidemic will enter into its terminal state of nuclear destruction, as Plato predicted.

The Prevailing Delusion About Online College Degrees: A Treatise on the Decline of Public Education

A treatise on American educational decline would fall categorically somewhere between the philosophical disciplines of anthropology and sociology, for in every successful intellectual rise of civilization there has been an aspiration by human beings to learn and pass on that learning to their progeny. To cogently discuss and elucidate a culture’s educational decline, one must first address that culture’s former rise to a certain pinnacle of educational success, and how, and why, the decline occurred. The short meteoric rise and long, bitter, incremental decline of American public education is a sad true story Americans need to know and understand, so that, perhaps, a new birth of intellectual freedom may be brought about by enlightened Americans during the 21st Century. Is online Internet college education anywhere equivalent to college classroom instruction? Was the decline in American education brought about by accident, by the efforts of one powerful man or woman, or by conspiracy? Read on for an explication…

The Lost Tribes of the World

Have you ever thought of living in a place where no one can ever discover or find you? Away from the modern civilization and the globally connected world of networks and technology, there exist some tribes or group of individuals who completely deny any contact with the rest of the world. Let us explore why and what is their lifestyle?

Cultural Festivals As Ceremonial Events of Reconciliation: The Case of The Apoo Festival of Ghana

Cultural festivals are mostly annual events that are used to mark a historic event that happened in the lives of a particular group or society. During such iconic ceremonies, members of the society get the opportunity to meet and settle their differences. Long term disputes, at loggerheads amongst the society members, are resolved during these commemorations. This is a major requirement that must be satisfied during the ceremonial event to please the ancestors who are perpetual advocates of peace. Such is the case of the Apoo festival celebrated annually by the people of Techiman in the Brong Ahafo Region of Ghana. The literal meaning of the Akan word Apoo is to drive away. Thus, during the festival observance, heated arguments and all forms of disputes amongst society members have driven away, as it were, to create a serene atmosphere of peace and unity.

Behind The Piney Veil

Texas holds a variety of landscapes. Deep East Texas is all about trees-thick, dense and ever-present. They breathe with those who live behind their Piney Veil. Secrets live in the trees and the keepers of those tales don’t like to expose all the truths that occur.

The Utterly Immoral and Unnatural Perversions of the LGBT Movement

As the Public Advocate of the United States, Eugene Delgado, has proclaimed vociferously on the Internet, the pernicious homosexual-transgender movement in the USA has cancerously metastasized into a awful disease of gigantic proportions, sickeningly affecting American families in a most deleterious fashion. Unnatural and immoral practices have been declared as natural and gross immorality has been transformed by evil sophistry into socially acceptable practices. Is transgenderism biologically possible, and is homosexual behavior to be regarded as normal? Read on for an explication of these issues…

Cultural Education Via Cultural Symbols for Interior and Exterior Decorations of Public Buildings

The cultures of people have great potentials in inculcating values and norms into its members. These values and norms disseminated through cultural education help in fostering good living relations among society members. In most cultures of the world, special cultural symbols are normally used for educating the norms and values of one’s culture. Good behavioral traits such as humility, hospitality, honesty, hard work, and respect are extolled in the symbolic and philosophical meanings enshrined in these cultural symbols. For example, in Ghana, the Adinkra symbols are culturally charged designs that illustrate the accepted values and norms in the Ghanaian community. These culture oriented symbols must be used for decorating the interiors and exteriors of public buildings like community centers, libraries, banks, hotels, restaurants and so forth. This would heighten the cultural education avenues in Ghana.
