International Human Rights Law Vs Sharia Law: Western Ideology And Islamic Cultural Interpretation Of Gender
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. The obvious conflict that exists between International Human Rights law and Sharia law as they both relate to women indicates a cultural basis upon which gender is approached. Clearly, any attempt to apply the International Human Rights law, which is based upon Western ideology, to countries that practice Sharia law, which is based upon the teachings of Islam, is a most difficult application to make. Women and culture have long represented various relationships in different cultures; as much as the International Human Rights law has attempted to bridge the obvious gap that exists between gender and humane treatment, it has failed to achieve its objective throughout myriad patriarchal nations.

Interpreting The Prodigal Son
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. Interpreting the parable of the Prodigal Son relies upon one's specific perspective of the Bible, while at the same time there are particular aspects that can be attributed to all interpretation. One might readily surmise that the parable's fundamental rendering symbolizes the father as the heavenly Father; the prodigal son's return home reflects the penitent sinner; and the elder brother represents the self-righteous attitude of the Pharisees and scribes. Similarly, an additional element supports the fact that even when His children turn away from Him, He does not lose His love for them. Beyond these sparse examples of any common underlying interpretation, one can read for years to come before stumbling across any two similar interpretations. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

Is the Shroud of Turin Real?
[ send me this paper ]
An 11 page paper arguing that the Shroud of Turin very well could be the burial cloth of Jesus. Opponents claim that proponents of the shroud being authentic are guilty of "shroudscience" in which they begin with the desired answer and then seek methods to validate that answer; he apparently is unaware that opponents appear to be most guilty of the practice. Several vocal naysayers claim that carbon dating work in 1988 prove the shroud originates in the 14th century, yet they refuse to discuss the shoddy science that produced that conclusion. "Serious and credentialed researchers continue to produce evidence that cannot easily be explained away." The Shroud of Turin looks far more like the burial cloth of Jesus and much less like a medieval hoax. Bibliography lists 11 sources.
