Pluralism powerponit
This document discusses the philosophy of pluralism in education. It defines pluralism as a society where diverse groups maintain their traditions while cooperating for national unity. The document outlines different types of pluralism including social, cultural, religious, and political pluralism. It discusses factors that influence pluralism such as economic expansion, improved communications, and concern for human rights. The document also discusses how pluralism is relevant to education through experiences that nurture pluralistic thought, acquiring awareness of diversity, and promoting interdependence among students of all backgrounds. Teaching strategies to promote pluralism include service learning, group projects, discussions, and cultural programs.
Practical ethics
1. The document discusses the concepts of relative and absolute poverty. Relative poverty refers to poverty in industrialized nations where basic needs are met, while absolute poverty refers to extreme poverty in developing countries where basic needs are not met.
2. Singer argues that extreme poverty is a "moral equivalent of murder" because it leads to avoidable deaths, though others disagree due to differences in motivation, duties, outcomes, and identifiable victims and perpetrators.
3. Singer presents an argument that if we can prevent something bad without comparable cost, we ought to do it. He argues this means we have an obligation to prevent some absolute poverty. However, others object based on
Types Of Justice
Distributive justice involves how benefits and burdens in society should be distributed. It addresses questions like how income, wealth, and opportunities should be distributed among individuals and groups. There are various theories for the basis of distribution, such as equality, merit, free market transactions, or maximizing individual needs. John Rawls' theory of justice as fairness holds that social and economic inequalities are justified only if they benefit the least advantaged and positions are open to all under conditions of fair equality of opportunity.
Ethics and religion
This document discusses several challenges posed by globalization and their implications. It outlines four major challenges: 1) ensuring globalization's benefits extend to all countries, 2) dealing with instability fears, 3) addressing competition fears leading to lower wages/rights, and 4) not using globalization as an excuse to avoid cooperation. Civil society groups will need to broaden their agendas beyond aid to address more complex issues. Governments will need to work with civil society in new ways. Multilateral institutions will need to address participation and transparency issues. High-level political discussions among global leaders are also needed.
Philosophy of morality and ethics
The document discusses various topics in ethics, including:
1. It defines morality and ethics, explaining they concern concepts of right and wrong.
2. It outlines different branches of ethics - meta ethics, normative ethics, and applied ethics.
3. It discusses various normative ethical theories like utilitarianism, deontology, and virtue ethics.
Cultural relativism
Cultural relativism poses a challenge to the possibility of ethics by claiming that:
1) Different cultures have differing moral codes, so what is right/wrong depends on the particular culture.
2) There are no objective moral standards that apply universally across cultures.
3) We should tolerate the moral beliefs of other cultures and not impose our own standards.
However, critics argue that cultural relativism is flawed because:
1) Moral differences may be due to non-moral beliefs/circumstances rather than genuine differences.
2) The diversity of beliefs does not prove no objective truth exists or that all beliefs are equally valid.
3) Relativism undermines its own principle of tolerance by
Social Stratification: Class, Race, Ethnicity, Gender, and Sex
Defining social stratification and discussing it's most common divisions such as race, class, gender, ethnicity, and sex. Also looks at the impact each has on education.
Chapter 2: Ethical Relativism
The document discusses several perspectives on morality including ethical relativism, which holds that moral principles are valid relative to culture rather than being universal. It also mentions moral skepticism, objectivism, absolutism, and nihilism. Additionally, it covers the diversity thesis, dependency thesis, subjectivism, conventionalism, and criticisms of ethical relativism regarding cultural changes over time and difficulties with determining moral truths across societies.

Logical positivism
Positivism is a philosophical system rooted in science and empiricism that rejects metaphysics and holds that knowledge is only derived from logical reasoning and sensory experience. It views society and the physical world as operating according to general laws that can be observed and measured scientifically. Some key aspects of positivism include its rejection of introspection and intuition, focus on observation and experimentation to verify phenomena, and belief that anything beyond direct observation cannot be known. Logical positivism refined these ideas, proposing that philosophy should only consider statements that are verifiable or confirmable through observation or experiment.
Relativism
Relativism is a philosophical theory that holds that all beliefs are equally valid and that truth is relative. The document discusses both positive and negative implications of relativism. It examines the views of prominent philosophers who supported and opposed relativism, including Wittgenstein, Rorty, Nietzsche, Plato, Aristotle, and Plantinga. While supporters argue that relativism promotes tolerance, dissenters believe it means that absolute truth and morality do not exist.
Multiculturism
In reference to sociology, multiculturalism is the end-state of either a natural or artificial process and occurs on either a large national scale or on a smaller scale within a nation's communities
Moral Relativism
The document discusses the philosophical theory of moral relativism, which claims that morality is relative to cultures and individuals rather than objective. It presents cultural relativism and subjective relativism as two forms of moral relativism. Cultural relativism argues that morality depends on one's culture, while subjective relativism claims it depends on individuals. Both reject the idea of universal moral principles.
Conflict perspective
The conflict perspective views society as made up of groups competing for limited resources that are unevenly distributed, which causes tensions and conflicts that become agents of social change. It was originated by Karl Marx and later expanded on by C. Wright Mills, who argued that societies inherently have conflicts due to unequal distributions of power and wealth where dominant groups control social structures. Mills agreed with Marxist views of the importance of conflict in society.
Cultural relativism
Cultural relativism holds that beliefs and ethics are relative to the individual's social context, so there are no universal moral truths. Ethnocentrism views one's own culture as superior. The document discusses differences in marriage ages, eye contact norms, and whether practices like female genital mutilation can be condemned despite being culturally accepted in some places. While cultural relativism says not to judge other cultures, some argue practices like FGM pose significant health risks and oppress women.

Society and culture
Here is a potential activity for children to learn about Pakistani culture:
Craft and Story Time
- Have the children make crafts that represent different aspects of Pakistani culture, such as making paper kites, mehndi/henna designs, or diya (clay oil lamps).
- As they craft, read them stories, folktales, and poems from Pakistani literature to expose them to the culture. Stories could include folktales from Sindh or Punjab or poems/stories in Urdu, Pashto, etc.
- After crafting and listening to stories, have the children share and explain the crafts and cultural aspects they learned about to practice teaching each other.
This allows the children to actively engage
Utilitarianism
Utilitarianism is a moral philosophy that judges actions based on their consequences. There are two main types: act utilitarianism, which deems an act right if it produces the greatest good, and rule utilitarianism, which assesses acts based on whether following the rule produces good outcomes. Utilitarianism focuses on maximizing welfare, usually defined as pleasure or happiness. It is a consequentialist theory, meaning the morality of an act is determined by its results. However, utilitarianism is difficult to apply due to problems in knowing all consequences of an act and weighing costs versus benefits. It also does not consider other moral factors like rights and duties. Islam critiques utilitarianism for making morality too
Gender and sexuality
This document provides information about gender and sexuality from a biological and social perspective. Biologically, sex is determined by anatomy, chromosomes, hormones and can be male, female or intersex. Gender refers to social and cultural roles and expectations of masculinity and femininity that are distinct from biological sex. Sexuality encompasses sexual orientation, acts, meanings and drives that are influenced by social and cultural factors. Theories around essentialism view gender differences as innate while social constructionism sees gender as a social construct.
Same Sex Marriage ppt
The document discusses the ongoing debate around same-sex marriage in the United States. It outlines the key arguments on both sides of the issue, including that same-sex marriage violates Christian beliefs but supports equal rights for all citizens to marry, and that while some argue homosexuality is a choice, others believe it is genetically determined. Additionally, it notes that the federal government does not require recognition of same-sex marriages but leaves it to state laws to decide.
Transnational Migration
Transnational migrants are immigrants whose lives depend on connections across international borders and have identities tied to multiple nation-states. The Philippines has become highly dependent on labor migration, sending over a million workers abroad each year, but has struggled to develop internally as a result and has uncertainties about migration's social impacts. While families benefit from remittances, the broader economic development effects are less clear, but migration perceptions have been woven into Filipino education and work aspirations in a way that could shape communities and the country going forward. The Philippines will need to explore how to better leverage migration for development and can learn from other countries' experiences with migration.
Lesson 5 : TOPIC 1 & TOPIC 2
At the end of the lesson, you should be able to:
1. identify the moral challenges of globalization
2. compare responses to shared moral dilemmas of baby boomers and millennials
3. state qualities of the filinnials
4. construct a plan for the coping with the challenges of globalization .
Karl Marx and conflict theory
This document discusses Karl Marx and conflict theory. It provides an overview of Marx's life and ideas, including his view that society is defined by conflicts between social classes competing over scarce resources. It outlines some of Marx's key concepts, such as how the division of labor leads to economic classes and class struggle. The document also discusses early and modern approaches to conflict theory, how it explains social change and inequality, and provides an analysis of how Marx viewed religion in relation to social conflicts.
Ethics moral relativism
Moral relativism comes in three forms: descriptive, meta-ethical, and normative. Descriptive moral relativism holds that moral judgments differ based on people and cultures without making claims about how things should be. Meta-ethical moral relativism says the truth or falsity of moral claims depends on traditions and practices of individuals or groups. Normative moral relativism argues we should tolerate the behavior of others even if it violates our own moral standards since there is no universal standard. Moral relativism also exists in two forms - ethical subjectivism where morality depends on individuals, and cultural relativism where morality depends on cultures. Both deny moral absolutes.
Ethical subjectivism
Russ Shafer-Landau is a professor of philosophy who has authored and edited several books on ethics. The document discusses two types of ethical subjectivism: normative and meta-ethical. Normative subjectivism holds that an act is morally right if the person judging approves of it. Meta-ethical subjectivism claims that moral judgments cannot be true or false. The document presents arguments for each view and considers objections, such as disagreement in ethics not proving lack of objective truth and moral judgments potentially being factual beliefs that do not intrinsically motivate.
Ethical egoism
Ethical egoism holds that individuals should act in their own self-interest exclusively without moral duties to help others. The document discusses several arguments for and against this view. It presents objections that ethical egoism cannot resolve conflicts of interest and is arbitrarily biased toward the self. Alternately, recognizing our equal humanity and common needs provides reason to consider the interests of others, such as donating to relieve global famine. Overall the document critically examines arguments for and against ethical egoism as a moral theory.
Social Justice
The document discusses key concepts related to communication theory, diversity vocabulary, and advocacy. It defines social justice as promoting a just society by challenging injustice and valuing diversity. It also discusses fairness, discrimination, advocacy, and allocating resources equitably without prejudicing groups based on attributes such as gender, religion, or race. Advocacy is defined as speaking on behalf of and taking action to protect the rights of others.
Nature of philosophy
The document provides an overview of the nature and history of philosophy. It discusses how philosophy began with early Greek philosophers asking questions about the natural world and seeking rational explanations. Key philosophers and schools of thought mentioned include the Milesians, Pre-Socratics like Parmenides and Pythagoras, Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Epicurus, the Stoics, Skeptics, and Cynics of the ancient world. It then outlines the development of philosophy through the medieval scholastic tradition, as well as the birth of modern science with figures like Copernicus, Galileo, Bacon, Descartes, Hobbes, Spinoza, and Leibniz in the early modern period.
Natural Law Lesson 3.pptx
St. Thomas Aquinas was a medieval scholar who reconciled Aristotle's political philosophy with Christian faith. He argued that governments must work for the common good of all people. Aquinas believed natural law, which is self-evident or deduced from self-evident ideas, governs human behavior. According to Aquinas, there are four types of law - eternal, natural, human, and divine - with eternal law being the highest, followed by natural law, then human law. Natural law applies to all humans and guides them to use reason to lead their lives.
Cultural Issues in Education
The document discusses cultural issues in education due to rising immigration and changing student demographics in the United States. It notes that the country has experienced the largest surge in immigration, with most coming from Latin America and Asia. It also shares that 14% of students speak another language at home and some households only speak a language other than English. The document recommends strategies for teachers to foster equity and excellence such as giving all students a chance to succeed, avoiding stereotypes, and learning to pronounce names correctly.

Ssm Theology Week 3
The document discusses the significance of the Bible and prayer. It covers several key points:
1. The Bible is God's revelation to humanity, inspired and preserved by God through divine revelation, inspiration, and illumination. It is both a record and message from God.
2. Prayer involves communing with God through praise, confession, thanksgiving, and requests. It is both a private and corporate activity that focuses on God's character and glory.
3. The process of canonization involved the church recognizing the inspired books as the authoritative standard, without adding or removing any texts. The Bible has been preserved accurately through meticulous copying and translation.
Ch07

Ways To Study Religion
The study of religion uses many academic disciplines and scholarly methodologies to understand religious traditions from historical, social, and cultural perspectives. This includes historical analysis of sacred texts, anthropological study of religious functions in societies, sociological examination of how religion interacts with social experiences, and philosophical scrutiny of the logical basis and limits of religious beliefs. The ultimate goal is to interpret and explain religious expressions and experiences through objective analysis while acknowledging the unique and subjective nature of human spirituality.

Anxhela s excellent_revision_notes_for_beliefs
This document discusses different perspectives on defining religion. It outlines social constructionist, substantive, and functional definitions. The social constructionist view is that religion is defined by how people themselves view it, while substantive definitions focus on beliefs like gods. Functional definitions examine religion's social and psychological roles. The document also covers theorists like Durkheim who saw religion as reinforcing social order and values, and perspectives that see religion as a source of alienation, oppression, or division.

The document discusses functionalist accounts of working class underachievement in education. Functionalists argue that cultural deprivation leads to underachievement, pointing to three key factors: low parental expectations and involvement, different speech codes, and working class subcultures that discourage educational success. Criticisms of this view include that it blames victims rather than considering wider societal inequalities, presents a deterministic view of human behavior, and promotes the myth that working class culture is deficient rather than just different.

Religions and society
Society and Religion are complementary. In brief, one can't survive without the other. This is what this short write up is all about
What is religion
Religion has a long history dating back to ancient mythologies and has evolved over time as people's faith and beliefs strengthened. Religions vary between cultures as some traditions are closely tied to specific beliefs. While some people are born into a religion, others choose their faith later in life. Religions aim to explain life's mysteries and provide answers to existential questions through sacred texts and worship of spiritual beings believed to have power over the world. Major world religions spread globally through immigration and now most cultures have a mix of different faiths.
Below the Surface Event Presentation

Religion & Ethics: A

1. A complex subject
2. The problem of religion
Hard to define
Many types
Religion and violence
3. Combining ethics and religion
Models of compromise and cooperation
Models of separation or antagonism
And then there are the different religions
4. Conclusion
1. A complex subject
While ethics is a complex subject in its own right, religion is no
less complex an area to study. Combining the two creates a
situation where any reasonable scholar runs and hides. The
complexities are piled so high and deep that no reasonable
answers can be developed, let alone sustained in the midst of the
conflicting claims of both fields. However, the importance of the
subject is so great that the attempt must be made. Religious
ethics are a prominent aspect of every culture and to neglect the
interaction leaves people ill equipped to function effectively in a
pluralistic society. So it is in the interests of providing a few tools
to help comprehend the complexities of this normal social
situation that this essay proposes to examine in a very brief way
this extremely difficult combination of issues.

Hiebert: Religion and ethics 2013-05
In order to do so, the first problem is to define religion itself.
While religion seems obvious at first glance, it turns out to be very
difficult to pin down to any simple understanding that can then
be brought into association with ethics. Tied to that is the very
frightening problem of religious violence, an issue that by itself
seems to end the ability to examine this issue.
However, when ethics and religion are brought together it is
highly revealing regarding a number of important clashes in
contemporary Western culture. Religion flourishes within
Western culture, even though it is formally secular.
Understanding religious ethics turns out to create significant
illumination around such issues as abortion, environmental
protection, and the value of pluralism itself. That does not mean
there is any social agreement to be found. But in a pluralistic
society one of the hopes is that by understanding the parties,
solutions to the clashes can be negotiated, or if not solutions,
then reasonable compromises.
2. The problem of religion
Religion is a problem, not because of its adherents, but because
of its diversity. Human responses to life that may be called
religious run from the atheist (no gods) to the polytheist (many
gods), and include thousands of variations in between. Finding a
single definition is difficult, let alone a single frame of reference
for that diversity. Regardless a definition needs to be attempted
if there is any hope of determining what the subject is of our
analysis.
Hard to define
One definition that offers significant analytical po ...
Religious Organisations
This document discusses various typologies for classifying religious organizations, including churches, sects, denominations, and cults. It summarizes the views of scholars like Troeltsch, Niebuhr, Wallis, Stark and Bainbridge on how these religious groups can be categorized based on factors like their relationship with wider society, commitment level demanded of members, exclusivity of beliefs, and leadership structure. The document also examines explanations for the growth of new religious movements in recent decades, such as marginalization, relative deprivation, and social change. It outlines theories on the typical life cycle and dynamics of sects over time as well as examples of established sects that have endured.
Common Practices in Religion
While religious practices may appear different, many share underlying similarities centered around rituals performed to gain favor with gods. Both Voodoo and Catholicism involve rituals like dancing, chanting, or prayer intended to beg forgiveness or favor. Critical issues in religious study include difficulties differentiating beliefs due to being raised in a specific religion. Understanding different faiths promotes tolerance rather than prejudice.

It summarizes his observations and discussions at various religious sites, including St. Stephen's Cathedral (Catholic), Chung Tian Buddhist Temple, Masjid Al Farooq Mosque, St. George Greek Orthodox Church, and the Ngutana-Lui Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Cultural Studies Centre. The notes discuss the purpose and symbolism of various religious objects, rituals, architecture, and stories among these faiths. Across religions, certain material items may help worship but are not always essential, as the internal practices and beliefs are the main emphasis.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
