Muslim Women
When I chose the topic of Americanization of immigrant Muslim women, I think I expected a straightforward, easy to categorize, research project.

Muslims: Has Their Fervor Gone Too Far?
The Islamic religion has been the center of religious argument for many years. This week we were shown several video clips of Islamics and how they justify their “martyrdom-seeking operations” (suicide bombings). Though a Christian could look at this and write for ever on how they disagree with all the Islamic beliefs the fact of the matter is that there are many things that if a Christian could look at carefully that they would find

Muslim Attitudes to Marriage
Muslim Attitudes to Marriage In Islam, marriage is a partnership. Muslim women accept only Allah as their master, and do not therefore consider themselves to be inferior to a husband. It is basic in Muslim society that the man is responsible for the family's welfare and business outside the home, but the woman has virtually absolute rights within it so long as her behaviour does not shame her provider or husband. No institution works well

The American Prison System
The American Prison System The American Prison system is home to many of the nations criminals.

An Alternative for Prison
America's prisons have been called "graduate schools for crime." It stands to reason: Take a group of people, strip them of possessions and privacy, expose them to constant threats of violence, overcrowd their cell- block, deprive them of meaningful work, and the result is an embittered underclass more intent on getting even with society than contributing to it. Prisons take the nonviolent offender and make him live by violence. They take the nonviolent offender and

The Arabian Knights
I will tell you about the tales I have just read in Arabian knights, but I will do it in far less nights than Shahrazad did. To start, Arabian Knights is a story told by one woman named Shahrazad.

The events that took place weren't real, but in

At the outset of the Revolution, only a handful of citizens had even contemplated a republic.

Prisoner’s Rights
I do not believe a prisoner should have rights anywhere near the same extent as a free citizen who has not committed crimes has. When a person commits a crime he gives up his rights. People have rights because they are believed to be responsible, honest, and trustworthy citizens. If they commit a crime they prove that they are not responsible, honest, trustworthy people. If these men and women have all these rights in

Christian and Muslim View on Marriage
Marriage What are the Christian teachings on remarriage? Christians look to the bible for advice. I found a passage about divorce. In the bible it says: Anyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery against her. And if she divorces her husband and marries another man, she commits adultery. (St Mark 10:11-12) This means that remarriage isn’t allowed in the eyes of the Lord brought them together and nothing should part them.
