Cosmetics as endocrine disruptors: are they a health risk?
Polyxeni Nicolopoulou-Stamati1 & Luc Hens2 & Annie J. Sasco3
Published online: 29 January 2016
# Springer Science+Business Media New York 2016
Abstract Exposure to chemicals from different sources in
everyday life is widespread; one such source is the wide range
of products listed under the title Bcosmetics^, including the
different types of popular and widely-advertised sunscreens.
Women are encouraged through advertising to buy into the
myth of everlasting youth, and one of the most alarming con-
sequences is in utero exposure to chemicals. The main route of
exposure is the skin, but the main endpoint of exposure is
endocrine disruption. This is due to many substances in cos-
metics and sunscreens that have endocrine active properties
which affect reproductive health but which also have other
endpoints, such as cancer. Reducing the exposure to endocrine
disruptors is framed not only in the context of the reduction of
health risks, but is also significant against the background and
rise of ethical consumerism, and the responsibility of the cos-
metics industry in this respect. Although some plants show
endocrine-disrupting activity, the use of well-selected natural
products might reduce the use of synthetic chemicals.
Instruments dealing with this problem include life-cycle
analysis, eco-design, and green labels; in combination with
the committed use of environmental management systems,
they contribute to Bcorporate social responsibility .̂

1 Introduction
Women and men all over the world use large amount of cos-
metic products in pursuit of everlasting youth, ignoring the
probable health risks. The commercial category of Bcosmetic
products^ entails substances or mixtures of substances that are
designed mainly for external use, for instance to improve the
appearance; clean; perfume; and sometimes protect as in the
case of sunscreens [1]. Many cosmetic products such as oils
and lipsticks contain UV filters, even though they are not
marketed under the term Bsunscreens^ or Bsun lotions^.
Cosmetic products contain active substances, preservatives
and also the so-called Bfragrances^ or Bperfumes^, the exact
composition of which remains a secret under the trade secret
standards [2].
Increasing scientific concern exists about the nature and the
safety of the ingredients used by the cosmetics industry re-
garding their endocrine-disrupting effects. Although numer-
ous studies have proved the endocrine-disrupting potential of
many ingredients, such as parabens, phthalates and UV filters,
and also their ability to cause reproductive impairments [3–6],
these substances are still extensively used and characterized as
Bsafe^. The main justification is the fact that manufacturers
keep the concentrations of the suspected chemical substances
low in accordance with the relevant legislation. However, the

COSC2737 Assignment 2: IT Infrastructure in the Cloud.
In this assignment, you will combine 3 different cloud services to build an application of your choice.
Typically, this might include a web-facing component. The focus of the assignment is not this content, but
the infrastructure behind it – the “wiring”, if you will.
As part of the assignment, you will create a presentation video. If this is done well, you will be able to add
these to a portfolio of work that you can demonstrate at job interviews, etc….
NB. This assignment is focused on Amazon products, primarily because that is what we teach in ITIS,
but, you are also allowed to use Google or Microsoft products, or a combination – but only with prior
permission from the Course Coordinator. And we may not be able to help you if problems between
vendor products arises.
For this assignment, you will provide a simple working cloud implementation, and submit the contents in a
ZIP file to Canvas, along with a presentation video, a report, and an initial PDF “pitch” document submitted
some weeks earlier than the deadline.
Note that the web content itself is not evaluated, only how it is set up. So you can use material from
anywhere (as long as you cite it on the web pages).
List of Amazon Services: https://aws.amazon.com/products/
List of Amazon services available to AWS Educate: https://s3.amazonaws.com/awseducate-starter-account-
services/AWS_Educate_Starter_Accounts_and_AWS_Services.pdf also available on Canvas.
Submission Details
1. Build a cloud infrastructure using at least 3 components from the AWS list of products above:
1. This could be a server and storage, or compute, or whatever.
2. One of the components counted could be the use of Alexa services for query.
2. The topic of the website is up to you, but must have a least (say) 5 different pages, and must ideally
be some form of B2B flavour.
3. Submission will be the following:
1. Pitch Document – An initial “pitch” where you describe your proposal in a few paragraphs
(not more than a page)
1. This will be due in week 11
2. Worth 5%, and will provide feedback from your tutor.
2. Report – A PDF report containing the following sections
1. Rationale
- The rationale behind this website or cloud construction. More or less a copy
of the pitch in its final form.
2. Cost Estimates
- both development, fixed and cloud running and how these running cost
scales for LOW (1-1000 transactions/day), MEDIUM (1000-1,000,000), and
HIGH (above 1,000,000+ transactions per day) – hese costs all to be
itemised and justified
- Imagine you are a professional quoting for the job
3. An installation manual that
- contains instructions to recreate the website(s)
- A marker should be able to rebuild it him/herself from this
4. There is no limit on report size, but a guide is about 10-15 pages including figures,

Correlation and RegressionForecasting is a critical job for mana.docx
This document discusses correlation, regression, and cluster analysis as statistical methods for forecasting. Correlation quantifies the relationship between two variables from -1 to 1. Regression constructs an equation describing the relationship between variables to forecast scenarios. Cluster analysis groups objects with similar characteristics into clusters to categorize large amounts of data. The document recommends using cluster analysis to analyze consumer survey responses that have interdependent factors. It provides examples of how companies have used cluster analysis for market segmentation, product categorization, and anomaly detection.
Correlation and Regression StudyBackground During this week .docx
Correlation and Regression Study
Background
During this week you will identify a research question created in Week 1 for which correlation or regression would be the best statistical approach to take. If you do not have a research question that indicates correlation or regression, review the research questions posted by your peers last week and select one that is ideal for correlation or regression.
Discussion Assignment Requirements
Initial Posting – In your initial posting for this assignment, include the following:
•Identify an appropriate research question that would require the use of correlation and regression to answer.
•Describe why this question is appropriate for a correlational study.
•Identify the two variables in this study and each of their attributes: discrete or continuous, quantitative or categorical, and scale of measurement (nominal, ordinal, interval, or ratio).
•Do the variables fit the qualifications of a correlational study? Explain.
•What type of correlation would you expect to find for this study (i.e., positive or negative)? Explain.
•What predictions might you be interested in making with these variables if the correlation is found to be significant?
Article Critique: Correlation & Regression
The readings for this week focus on the concepts of correlation and regression. In this discussion we will apply those concepts to the review and critique of Wagenheim & Anderson (2008). For information on how to critique a research article, see the Coughlan et al. (2007) from your resources in Week 1 and UIS (n.d.) from your resources in Week 2.
In the body of your posting, include an overview of the following topics:
•Research question – State the research question for the study.
•Methods and study design – Describe the basic methods used, including the variables, sampling methods, data collection, etc.
•Data analysis – Summarize the statistical tests conducted, the results obtained from each test, and the conclusions regarding the research question.
•Critique – Critique the results of the study, paying specific attention to the appropriateness of the analyses conducted, any biases or assumptions that were made, practical significance of the results, and recommendations for improving upon the study (methods or analyses).
•Summary – Provide a brief summary of the study's findings in 2-3 sentences. Do not use any numbers or statistical terms, but provide a review that would make sense to someone who has not studied research methods or statistics.
Be sure to put information in your own words and to cite appropriately. Respond substantively to at least two of your classmates’ postings. Specifically, focus on their critique of the results and discussion of the analysis. Do you agree with their assessment? What questions did the study leave you with?

Mission: to engage and rehabilitate the offenders with sentence of seven years
Goals: To engage the offenders into correction program for their betterment
To help the offenders to live a life with worth with out committing a crime.
Intensive motivational program of alternative correctional treatment (IMPACT) is a program that is based on the two phases, it is continuation shock incarcerations that initially started in the 1987. The mission of the program is to engage the offenders who are sentenced for 7 years into correctional program. Goals of the program is to engage the offender voluntarily in the two phase program and they can quite if they are not willing to continue the program. The offenders ahs to pass through the phases and complete the instructions of the drill instructors. The target population is based on the offender who do not mix in to normal general population.

Intensive motivational program of alternative correctional treatment (IMPACT)
Population : Offenders with sentence of seven years
Effectiveness:
Increased the prosocial behavior in offenders
Decreased the aggression and anxiety
Improvements have been seen in the offenders that lead them towards rehabilitation.
The program is effective for the offenders by send in to the offenders into military boot camps. Offenders who were engage in the IMPACT program were reported as having the high prosocial behaviors anxiety and aggression have been lowered in the offenders who have completed the program. Offender with change are promoted to the next phase of rehabilitation (Mackenzie & Shaw, 2006). It was designed because authorities are aware of that emotional instability is a main reason behind the offenses. Thus this program helped to provide emotional stability and also help in rehabilitation process.

CORPORATE TRAINING 2
Corporate Training
Today, managers need well-trained employees and are finding they do not exist.
Corporations are, therefore, providing additional training for their employees. One such training
program that is being added to corporate learning environments is an awareness of emotional
intelligence. Business managers are learning that successful managers need high Emotional
Quotient (EQ) or Emotional Intelligence (EI) to work effectively. Emotional intelligence is the
ability to accurately perceive emotions in self and others, to identify different emotional
responses, and to use emotional information to make intelligent decisions (Goleman, 2000). A
leading expert on EQ finds that “people good at managing relationships tend also to be self-
aware, self-regulating, and empathetic” (Goleman, 2000, p. 33). Emotional intelligence is
especially important “at the highest levels of the company, where differences in technical skills
are of little importance. In other words, the higher the rank of the person, the more emotional
intelligence capabilities are needed for decision making effectiveness” (Goleman, 1986, p. 94).
Emotional intelligence is crucial to a successful business career and for effective group
performance (Goleman, 1986). The core competencies required for emotional intelligence are
“the perception of emotions in one’s self and others, the understanding of these emotions, and
the management of emotions” (Feldman, 2001, ¶ 4). Success in the modern workplace requires
teamwork and collaboration. Emotional Intelligence training is essential since most modern

Complete the problems as presented in this document. You may create a new document and/or spreadsheet as needed. Any memo should be no more than 3 pages in length. Please state any assumptions used if problems are not clear.
Problem 1
Your client, a physician, recently purchased a yacht on which he flies a pennant with a medical emblem on it. He recently informed you that he purchased the yacht and flies the pennant to advertise his occupation and thus attract new patients. He has asked you if he may deduct as ordinary and necessary business expenses the costs of insuring and maintaining the yacht. In search of an answer, consult RIA’s CHECKPOINT TAX available on-line through the SNHU Shapiro Library. Explain the steps taken to find your answer.
Problem 2
Stacey Small has a small salon that she has run for a few years as a sole proprietorship. The proprietorship uses the cash method of accounting and the calendar year as its tax year. Stacey needs additional capital for expansion and knows two people who might be interested in investing. One would like to practice hairdressing in the salon. The other would only invest.
Stacey wants to know the tax consequences of incorporating the business. Her business assets include a building, equipment, accounts receivable and cash. Liabilities include a mortgage on the building and a few accounts payable, which are deductible when paid.
Write a memo to Stacey explaining the tax consequences of the incorporation. As part of your memo examine the possibility of having the corporation issue common and preferred stock and debt for the shareholders’ property and money.
Problem 3
Five years ago, Lacey, Kaylee, and Doug organized a software corporation, DLK, which develops and sells Online Meetings software for businesses. DLK is a C corporation. Each individual contributed $10,000 to the company in exchange for 1,000 shares of DLK stock (for a total of 3,000 shares). The corporation also borrowed $250,000 from ACME Venture Capital to finance operating costs and capital expenditures.
Because of intense competition, DLK struggled for the first few years of operation and the corporation sustained chronic losses. This year, Lacey, DLK’s president, decided to seek additional funds to finance DLK’s working capital.
CME declined to extend additional funds because of the money already invested in DLK. High Tech Venture Capital Inc. proposed to lend DLK $100,000, but at a 10% premium over the prime rate. (Other software manufacturers in the same market can borrow at a 3% premium.) First Round Capital proposed to invest $50,000 of equity capital into DLK, but on the condition that the investment firm be granted the right to elect five members to DLK’s board of directors. Discouraged by the “high cost” of external borrowing, Lacey decides to approach Kaylee and Doug.

Dodge v. Ford (1919), and
eBay v. Newmark (2010)
BLAW 461.01, Sept. 17, 2018
Andy Little
Van Duzer’s Main Thesis
“I would conclude that at this time in history, there are two legitimate, first-order, intrinsic purposes of business: as stewards of God’s creation, business leaders should manage their businesses (1) to provide the community with goods and services that will enable it to flourish, and (2) to provide opportunities for meaningful work that will allow employees to express their God-given creativity. . . . When managers pursue these particular goals for their companies, they participate directly in God’s creation mandate. They engage in work of intrinsic and not just instrumental value.”
Jeff Van Duzer, Why Business Matters to God (IVP Academic, 2010), p. 42.
“Note that nothing in this … model supports the conclusion that business should be operated for the purpose of maximizing profits. In fact, this model turns the dominant business model on its head. . . . Profit is not important as an end in and of itself. Rather, it becomes the means of attracting sufficient capital to allow the business to do what, from God’s perspective, it is in business to do—that is, to serve its customers and employees.”
Ibid., pp. 45-46.
The challenge of articulating a different model of business in light of the law on corporate purpose
It seems like from a Christian perspective, Van Duzer has a point.
But, will the law even allow this prioritization of customers and employees, perhaps at the expense of shareholders? Haven’t we heard somewhere that profit maximization for shareholder benefit is the only moral and legal requirement of officers and directors?
Dodge v. Ford (Mich. Sup. Ct., 1919)
The Dodge brothers were seeking to extend their fortunes in the young American automobile industry in 1903. They decided to invest in a new company formed by an eccentric engineer and race car driver, Henry Ford. The Dodges became 10% owners of the new company, which was the third automobile company started by Ford since 1899.
By 1916, the Dodges decided to start their own company in competition with Ford, but Ford refused to declare a stock dividend because he knew his investors (the Dodges) would just use the cash to build cars that competed with his Model T.
Ford (59% owner) wanted to re-invest what would have been a dividend into a new factory, the River Rouge plant.
What Was Ford Thinking?
--Is he really benevolent?
--Is he just trying to play the role of populist folk hero?
Henry Ford did not premise his refusal to declare a dividend based on the long-term success of the River Rouge Plant and thereby the success of the company and its stockholders. Rather, he argued that cars were too expensive, and that he intended to lower the price of the Model T so that the average person could afford one, which, in his mind, would make society better.
Ford’s comment to the media: “I do not believe t.

Our Core Values & Beliefs booklet is an attempt to provide a brief summary
of who the Vineyard is and what we believe. Our Statement of Purpose is a
concise affirmation of why we exist. Our Core Values give meaning to all that
we do. They also drive our purpose, define what is central to us, position the
Vineyard in the larger body of Christ, and remove ambiguity in mission. You
can learn much more about our Core Values if you visit www.vineyardusa.org.
Our Statement of Faith provides the foundation for all that we are. The
Statement of Faith is based on the Bible. The Bible is our final authority in all
matters of faith and practice. However, since the Bible is a diverse collection
of narrative stories, poetry, law, and letters, it is helpful to summarize its
teaching in a concise form that can be comprehended by both those deeply
rooted in the church and those who have little exposure to the Bible. This is
the historical function that the ancient universal church creeds played in the
first four hundred years of Christ-centered faith.
It is also important for each community of faith to express these ancient
truths in its own language, and not merely adopt the language of another age
and culture. Every community of faith has two major obligations in regards to
its faith, namely absolute faithfulness to the Word of God, and sensitivity to
the world in which that community lives. This means that the Vineyard move-
ment must express the historical, biblical, orthodox Christian beliefs that we
hold in common with all Christians, and the particular doctrines that are our
distinctive voice, in terms that are relevant to 21st century Christians.
Our Statement of Faith is based on the conviction that the kingdom of God
is the central theological motif that gives definition to all that we believe. It
is a kingdom of God centered theology. This statement is our best current
understanding of the Bible from that kingdom perspective. Our prayer is that
God will bless our sincere attempt to be humble ambassadors of His rule and
reign, and to be a people that practice the presence of God and proclaim His
Gospel, so that His will may be done on Earth as it is in heaven.
For the greater glory of God and the well-being of people!

SuMMARIZING THE OPTIONS
There was a time when it seemed that religion might just dis-
appear. Throughout the modern period secularism continued
to grow. It appeared that the religions of humankind would be
superseded by science and left behind as historical artifacts, like
Egyptian temples, the Greek gods, and many Christian churches
in Northern Europe today. Certainly the hope of a world with-
out religion continues to motivate some thinkers. Richard Daw-
kins’ ‘Beyond Belief ’ movement and advertising campaigns in
Britain and Canada have precisely this outcome as their goal.
And yet at present the outcome they strive for appears unlikely.
If anything, there has been a resurgence of religious commitment
in many cultures. Any decline in religion in Europe and North
America has been more than compensated for by the rapid
growth of Pentecostal and charismatic movements in churches
around the world. Even non-religious thinkers, such as Jürgen
Habermas, one of Germany’s leading philosophers, now speak
of moving – contrary to their and others’ expectations – into a
‘post-secular society.’1
Religion, then, it appears, is.

Very few companies have tracking stock.

CORPORATE TRAINING 2
Corporate Training
Today, managers need well-trained employees and are finding they do not exist.
Corporations are, therefore, providing additional training for their employees. One such training
program that is being added to corporate learning environments is an awareness of emotional
intelligence. Business managers are learning that successful managers need high Emotional
Quotient (EQ) or Emotional Intelligence (EI) to work effectively. Emotional intelligence is the
ability to accurately perceive emotions in self and others, to identify different emotional
responses, and to use emotional information to make intelligent decisions (Goleman, 2000). A
leading expert on EQ finds that “people good at managing relationships tend also to be self-
aware, self-regulating, and empathetic” (Goleman, 2000, p. 33). Emotional intelligence is
especially important “at the highest levels of the company, where differences in technical skills
are of little importance. In other words, the higher the rank of the person, the more emotional
intelligence capabilities are needed for decision making effectiveness” (Goleman, 1986, p. 94).
Emotional intelligence is crucial to a successful business career and for effective group
performance (Goleman, 1986). The core competencies required for emotional intelligence are
“the perception of emotions in one’s self and others, the understanding of these emotions, and
the management of emotions” (Feldman, 2001, ¶ 4). Success in the modern workplace requires
teamwork and collaboration. Emotional Intelligence training is essential since most modern

Notes
Ch1 corporations
Complete the problems as presented in this document. You may create a new document and/or spreadsheet as needed. Any memo should be no more than 3 pages in length. Please state any assumptions used if problems are not clear.
Problem 1
Your client, a physician, recently purchased a yacht on which he flies a pennant with a medical emblem on it. He recently informed you that he purchased the yacht and flies the pennant to advertise his occupation and thus attract new patients. He has asked you if he may deduct as ordinary and necessary business expenses the costs of insuring and maintaining the yacht. In search of an answer, consult RIA’s CHECKPOINT TAX available on-line through the SNHU Shapiro Library. Explain the steps taken to find your answer.
Problem 2
Stacey Small has a small salon that she has run for a few years as a sole proprietorship. The proprietorship uses the cash method of accounting and the calendar year as its tax year. Stacey needs additional capital for expansion and knows two people who might be interested in investing. One would like to practice hairdressing in the salon. The other would only invest.
Stacey wants to know the tax consequences of incorporating the business. Her business assets include a building, equipment, accounts receivable and cash. Liabilities include a mortgage on the building and a few accounts payable, which are deductible when paid.
Write a memo to Stacey explaining the tax consequences of the incorporation. As part of your memo examine the possibility of having the corporation issue common and preferred stock and debt for the shareholders’ property and money.
Problem 3
Five years ago, Lacey, Kaylee, and Doug organized a software corporation, DLK, which develops and sells Online Meetings software for businesses. DLK is a C corporation. Each individual contributed $10,000 to the company in exchange for 1,000 shares of DLK stock (for a total of 3,000 shares). The corporation also borrowed $250,000 from ACME Venture Capital to finance operating costs and capital expenditures.
Because of intense competition, DLK struggled for the first few years of operation and the corporation sustained chronic losses. This year, Lacey, DLK’s president, decided to seek additional funds to finance DLK’s working capital.
CME declined to extend additional funds because of the money already invested in DLK. High Tech Venture Capital Inc. proposed to lend DLK $100,000, but at a 10% premium over the prime rate. (Other software manufacturers in the same market can borrow at a 3% premium.) First Round Capital proposed to invest $50,000 of equity capital into DLK, but on the condition that the investment firm be granted the right to elect five members to DLK’s board of directors. Discouraged by the “high cost” of external borrowing, Lacey decides to approach Kaylee and Doug.

Corporate Law & Business Purpose
Jeff Van Duzer,
Dodge v. Ford (1919), and
eBay v. Newmark (2010)
BLAW 461.01, Sept. 17, 2018
Andy Little
Van Duzer’s Main Thesis
“I would conclude that at this time in history, there are two legitimate, first-order, intrinsic purposes of business: as stewards of God’s creation, business leaders should manage their businesses (1) to provide the community with goods and services that will enable it to flourish, and (2) to provide opportunities for meaningful work that will allow employees to express their God-given creativity. . . . When managers pursue these particular goals for their companies, they participate directly in God’s creation mandate. They engage in work of intrinsic and not just instrumental value.”
Jeff Van Duzer, Why Business Matters to God (IVP Academic, 2010), p. 42.
“Note that nothing in this … model supports the conclusion that business should be operated for the purpose of maximizing profits. In fact, this model turns the dominant business model on its head. . . . Profit is not important as an end in and of itself. Rather, it becomes the means of attracting sufficient capital to allow the business to do what, from God’s perspective, it is in business to do—that is, to serve its customers and employees.”
Ibid., pp. 45-46.
The challenge of articulating a different model of business in light of the law on corporate purpose
It seems like from a Christian perspective, Van Duzer has a point.
But, will the law even allow this prioritization of customers and employees, perhaps at the expense of shareholders? Haven’t we heard somewhere that profit maximization for shareholder benefit is the only moral and legal requirement of officers and directors?
Dodge v. Ford (Mich. Sup. Ct., 1919)
The Dodge brothers were seeking to extend their fortunes in the young American automobile industry in 1903. They decided to invest in a new company formed by an eccentric engineer and race car driver, Henry Ford. The Dodges became 10% owners of the new company, which was the third automobile company started by Ford since 1899.
By 1916, the Dodges decided to start their own company in competition with Ford, but Ford refused to declare a stock dividend because he knew his investors (the Dodges) would just use the cash to build cars that competed with his Model T.
Ford (59% owner) wanted to re-invest what would have been a dividend into a new factory, the River Rouge plant.
What Was Ford Thinking?
--Is he really benevolent?
--Is he just trying to play the role of populist folk hero?
Henry Ford did not premise his refusal to declare a dividend based on the long-term success of the River Rouge Plant and thereby the success of the company and its stockholders. Rather, he argued that cars were too expensive, and that he intended to lower the price of the Model T so that the average person could afford one, which, in his mind, would make society better.
Ford’s comment to the media: “I do not believe t.

Our Core Values & Beliefs booklet is an attempt to provide a brief summary
of who the Vineyard is and what we believe. Our Statement of Purpose is a
concise affirmation of why we exist. Our Core Values give meaning to all that
we do. They also drive our purpose, define what is central to us, position the
Vineyard in the larger body of Christ, and remove ambiguity in mission. You
can learn much more about our Core Values if you visit www.vineyardusa.org.
Our Statement of Faith provides the foundation for all that we are. The
Statement of Faith is based on the Bible. The Bible is our final authority in all
matters of faith and practice. However, since the Bible is a diverse collection
of narrative stories, poetry, law, and letters, it is helpful to summarize its
teaching in a concise form that can be comprehended by both those deeply
rooted in the church and those who have little exposure to the Bible. This is
the historical function that the ancient universal church creeds played in the
first four hundred years of Christ-centered faith.
It is also important for each community of faith to express these ancient
truths in its own language, and not merely adopt the language of another age
and culture. Every community of faith has two major obligations in regards to
its faith, namely absolute faithfulness to the Word of God, and sensitivity to
the world in which that community lives. This means that the Vineyard move-
ment must express the historical, biblical, orthodox Christian beliefs that we
hold in common with all Christians, and the particular doctrines that are our
distinctive voice, in terms that are relevant to 21st century Christians.
Our Statement of Faith is based on the conviction that the kingdom of God
is the central theological motif that gives definition to all that we believe. It
is a kingdom of God centered theology. This statement is our best current
understanding of the Bible from that kingdom perspective. Our prayer is that
God will bless our sincere attempt to be humble ambassadors of His rule and
reign, and to be a people that practice the presence of God and proclaim His
Gospel, so that His will may be done on Earth as it is in heaven.
For the greater glory of God and the well-being of people!

SuMMARIZING THE OPTIONS
There was a time when it seemed that religion might just dis-
appear. Throughout the modern period secularism continued
to grow. It appeared that the religions of humankind would be
superseded by science and left behind as historical artifacts, like
Egyptian temples, the Greek gods, and many Christian churches
in Northern Europe today. Certainly the hope of a world with-
out religion continues to motivate some thinkers. Richard Daw-
kins’ ‘Beyond Belief ’ movement and advertising campaigns in
Britain and Canada have precisely this outcome as their goal.
And yet at present the outcome they strive for appears unlikely.
If anything, there has been a resurgence of religious commitment
in many cultures. Any decline in religion in Europe and North
America has been more than compensated for by the rapid
growth of Pentecostal and charismatic movements in churches
around the world. Even non-religious thinkers, such as Jürgen
Habermas, one of Germany’s leading philosophers, now speak
of moving – contrary to their and others’ expectations – into a
‘post-secular society.’1
Religion, then, it appears, is.

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.
