Religion
and the Patterns of Morality
[ send
me this paper ]
In this age of increased crime and public decadence in and
out of the White House and Senate, it is easy to
understand the need to incorporate a sense of morality
within the context of politics. Moral action is perhaps a
necessary ingredient that appears to be missing, or, at
the least, diminished. Former President Reagan stated that
he felt that Americans need religion because we are
imperfect and our government needs the church because only
those humble enough to admit they are sinners can bring
democracy the tolerance it requires in order to survive.
This 5 page paper proposes that this statement is
reflective of a belief that religion is able to influence
the patterns of morality by animating moral behavior
within the context of government or political policies.
Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Arabia - Infant Mortality High (Proposed purchase of

[ send
me this paper ]
(10 pp) Infant mortality rate (IMR) is a sensitive index
of the general health and welfare of the population of a
nation. It is an indicator of effectiveness of health
services. Cause-specific mortality rate data is useful in
planning and evaluation of strategies designed to address
high IMR. This is because the starting point of a sequence
of events leading to death is known and death can be
avoided or postponed by preventing the initiating cause.
In Saudi Arabia 75% of infant mortality could be avoided.

Semiological
Analysis of a Television Show -- “Touched by an Angel”
[ send
me this paper ]
This 5 page report discusses the semiologic aspects of the
prime-time television show “Touched by an Angel.” In
contemporary popular culture, television serves as one of
the best possible representations of how it is possible to
understand larger realities about society and social
beliefs via the stories told and symbols presented. The
popular prime-time show “Touched by an Angel”
illustrates such a process. The show is almost an ancient
morality play in which the players learn greater truths
about themselves and the world in which they live. The
symbols and signals presented as a common denominator in
each episode fit into a number of the assumptions made by
Western humanity regarding “seeing the light” and
personal redemption. Bibliography lists one source.

Sociology's
Approach To Understanding The Nature & Character Of
Religion
[ send
me this paper ]
3 pages. The connection between sociology and religion is
unmistakable; without question, these two elements of
existence are distinctly intertwined within the framework
of every global society. Indeed, without religious
inclusion, which is truly a key component to contemporary
living, the world as it is today would cease to exist.
Sociology's approach to understanding the nature and
character of religion begins as far back as the Stone Age
and reaches as far forward as the Space Age, for there is
not a single episode of life that has occurred without the
presence of religion. The writer discusses these concepts
as they are effectively addressed in Joel M. Charon's 'The
Meaning of Sociology: A Reader.' No additional sources
cited.
