Abstract: Ethics and Religion go side by side, is what a person will say to clarify on this subject. So the question arises as to why one needs to be ethical or religious, or in other words why everyone wants a label of being good and just or term themselves as ethical or religious.Most of the moral philosophers would say this is not the case,yet it can really be helpful to understand this concept. This means that people can maintain certain ethical perspectives, principles and behavior without engaging oneself in religious or spiritual beliefs, institutions, or practices.

How to Build a Module in Odoo 17 Using the Scaffold MethodCeline George
Odoo provides an option for creating a module by using a single line command. By using this command the user can make a whole structure of a module. It is very easy for a beginner to make a module. There is no need to make each file manually. This slide will show how to create a module using the scaffold method.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Belief in god or gods is found in almost religion. There is a good reason to presuppose that
religion had existed during prehistoric times and that there seems to be universality in religion in the
modern period. Human life may have may have produced hundreds of religions and belief systems.
Theism is defined as a belief in the existence of one God viewed as the creative source of
the human race and the world who transcends yet is imminent in the world. Theism is often used as
a synonym to monotheism. Monotheistic religions claim that there is only one god who could have
designed and created the universe or may have directed all events that led to the creation of
everything. Examples of this include Judaism, Christianity and Islam. On the other hand,
Polytheistic religions recognize many principal gods wherein no one is supreme. These include
the ancient religions of Egypt, Greece, and Rome. Monism asserts that is no genuine distinctions
between god and the universe, two implications arise from this belief. Firstly, it contends that god is
dwelling in the universe as part of it. Secondly, the universe does not exist at all as a reality but only
a manifestation of the phenomenon of god. Lastly, atheists do not believe in the existence of any
god while agnostics deny the possibility for man to acquire knowledge of god.
Religion is defined as an organized system of beliefs, ceremonies, and rules used to worship
a god or a group of god. It came from a Latin word religio which means to something done with
overanxious or scrupulous attention to detail. It refers to an expression of proper piety, which is,
binding to God. It was then used to designate formal belief systems and tenets.
While religion refers to any set of attitudes, beliefs, and practices concerning a supernatural
power, the term theology involves the systematic study of the existence and nature of the divine.
Theology is a particular branch of study concerning the nature purpose of god that may undertake
using lens of a certain group, such as feminist or liberal theology. In short, theology is a systematic
formulation of religious beliefs.

For thousands of years, people have been searching and yearning to understand the mystery
of life and universe. There may come a point when they experience dryness and meaningless life.
This is where spirituality comes in, being defined as relating or affecting the human spirit or soul
as opposed to a material or physical things. Spirituality can be manifested in quite a number of ways
like a person may believe in the presence of an overwhelming power greater than oneself or perhaps
a person can be fully mindful of one’s purpose in life. Spirituality is something an individual can have
without being implicated in the ambivalent complexity of human societies and institutions.
Religion may refer to any set of attitudes, beliefs and practices aimed at communicating or
propitiating with supernatural beings. Human may recognize a superhuman being controlling power
that seeks worship and obedience from them. While religions are frequently viewed as set of ideals
practiced and followed by organized groups, spirituality involves one’s integrative view of life that is
more personal while affecting the human soul.
