THE SCIENCE AND METASCIENCE OF PERSONALITY
|
This paper states that biological and sociological factors interact to produce the human personality and that to understand personality its biosocial roots must be studied. It states that change of the personality, however, requires additional understanding of existential and spiritual matters, and bringing those to bear on the individual.

WHAT EXISTED BEFORE THE BIG-BANG AND WHERE IS THE UNIVERSE EXPANDING TO?
|
|
This paper examined what contemporary cosmology and astrophysics say on the origin and nature of the universe. It accepts this view of phenomena but says that the questions: what existed before the big bang and where is the universe expanding to have not been answered. Instead of cavalierly dismissing those who ask such philosophical questions, as arrogant scientists do, scientists are urged to see them as the source of improvement to what they currently understand as the nature of the universe.

|
|
Oil has made us billions and fuelled our economic stability, but oil has also become the bane of our existence. For some, it is a curse that has caused poverty and corruption, but for others it is an essential source of untold wealth and power. But as the gap between rich and poor countries continues to expand, it is clear that intellectual capital and technology rule the world, and that natural resources such as oil, gold, and diamonds are no longer the primary determinants of wealth.
