How would you know the difference between the dream world and the real world?" (The Matrix) Those words may not be science fiction for very long.

An age old question that has been pondered time and time again and will still be asked for years to come is whether animals and humans are the same or different. The reason that this question is inquired about so often is that humans have been able to survive and thrive, partially based on their use of animals. In the past century many more people are questioning this practice because it is the trend.

Many stories have been written in order to explain the creation of the world and human beings. While none of these have been scientifically proven, a majority of these stories have quite different views of how life was created. Two of these stories are Metamorphosis by Ovid, which considers an initial chaos, which evolves, and Genesis from the King James Bible, which takes an alternate point of view, in that God created everything from nothing in a six-day period. While these two stories are very different, they have many similarities as well. In the beginning of Metamorphosis, all was chaos w...

As a college student, as with any walk of life, my days are fraught with change and countless decisions regarding my future. At times this can be quite despairing. As a Christian my faith tells me that mankind was conceived in God's own image, and that part of Him resides within each individual soul.

On the Division of Labor Karl Marx and Adam Smith both realized that there have been benefits to the division of labor, but Marx believes that through strict specialization, a person is being individually hurt by being devoid of greater experiences. A repetitive task makes a person seem more like a machine than a human. Smith notes in his "Wealth of Nations" that the division of labor betters society. Things can be produced more quickly by a greater number of laborers specializing in a single skill than by a single worker attempting various tasks. This one worker may not be completely apt at a...
