Ondskans problem är ett gammalt (religions)filosofiskt problem som, i grova drag, frågar om existensen av en allsmäktig, allvetande och allgod Gud är förenlig med ondskan i världen, samt varför en sådan Gud tillåter ondska. Filosofer (som svarar jakande på frågan om) har utvecklat ett svar på frågan varför Gud tillåter ondska. Syftet med denna uppsats är följaktligen att redogöra för Richard Swinburnes svar på frågan varför Gud tillåter ondska, samt granska svaret i ljuset av Eleonore Stumps tankegångar..

The purpose of this essay is to see if the Swedish nationalist party?Sverigedemokraterna? use religion rhetorically in their paper SD-Kuriren, and if so,then how? The method used to examine this is called rhetorical analysis. Furthermore, thetheory to explore how religion is used rhetorical is Said's Orientalism.The results show that religion is used rhetorically in the articles. Islam is explainedfrom our point of view in the west, and not their own. Islam becomes a religion that is faraway from what the Swedish culture is like, and also a religion that is violent andirrational compared to the Swedish culture, but also other religions, such as Judaism.Also, religion is used rhetorically to show that Islam is the opposite in relation toChristianity and Judaism..

This study was performed to investigate how the Japanese sect Aum Shinrikyo was legitimating its violence and killing acts. By analyzing the leader and members of the sect, and applying this information on two theoretical models, this paper tries to give an explanation of both single acts of violence and killing, and two terrorattacks.The result shows that Aum Shinrikyo was able to legitimate violence and killing acts through its ideology. In their opinion, cosmos was a place with several levels and everyone wanted to get as high as possible. Those who were killed by the sect would never be able to get to a higher level by living, since they would do too many bad actions. The murderers also got better karma since they helped the person to a better place.The legitimating of violence and killing acts in Aum Shinrikyo can be explained as a duty that is holy, which agrees with the theorists about religious terrorism..

Utgångspunkten för vår uppsats har varit att undersöka skönlitterära böckers värde i SO-undervisningen och se på vilket sätt dessa kan användas särskilt i religions-undervisningen. För att få våra frågeställningar besvarade har vi använt oss av kvalitativa intervjuer med fyra lärare, facklitteraturstudier samt orienterat oss i skönlitterär ungdomslitteratur. Några huvudargument för att använda skönlitteratur i SO-undervisningen, som framkommit vid intervjuer och litteraturstudier, är att skönlitteraturen förmedlar förståelse för det främmande och kan hjälpa eleverna att finna sin identitet. Ur resultatet framgår att de intervjuade lärarna främst bearbetar litteraturen genom diskussion och reflektion, men också med andra metoder som till exempel drama- och värderingsövningar. Det vi bland annat har kommit fram till är att användandet av skönlitteratur berikar undervisningen när fakta levandegörs då den sätts i ett narrativt sammanhang..

This paper attempts to trace the journey of Adonis from ancient Mesopotamia, through Phoenicia and finally to Greece, and to see how his function and cult have evolved during this migration. It starts with a short summary of previous research regarding Adonis and goes on to describe the myths and the rites of Adonis as they were celebrated in Alexandria, Byblos and Athens. I then examine possible connections to ritual drama, the mystery religions and whether there is any evidence that the Adonia might have been a germination ritual.My conclusions are that Adonis loses his connection to the growing cycle and the ideology of sacred kingship with the move to Greece where the political system with independent city states is different, and that there has been too much focus on Adonis as a vegetation god. Since Adonis is connected with the ancient Near Eastern cults of sacral kingship it might be more rewarding to consider the death aspects associated with his cult and the possibility of ancestral worship in relation to a ruler. This would make some of the otherwise puzzling aspects of his cult more understandable..

To get the information we used a qualitative method. We interviewed young men with Islamic background.Some central questions that character our essay was about the interview person's positions between the different alcohol cultures and if the Islamic religion in some way affects their view on alcohol.

SO är ett blockämne, bestående av geografi, historia, religions- och samhällsvetenskap, som under de senaste femtio åren haft en plats i den svenska grundskolan. SO-ämnets innehåll, organisering och arbetssätt har dock varierat under dessa femtio år. Syftet med denna undersökning är att ta reda på hur verksamma SO-lärare ser på sitt ämne, sin behörighet och på de förändringar som är på väg att ske inom SO-ämnet. Undersökningen grundar sig i en fenomenologisk ansats och för att få svar på syftets fråga har fem SO-lärare intervjuats.Studien visar på hur de intervjuade lärarna ser positivt på SO-ämnets blocktanke och gärna vill utveckla detta blocktänkande. I samma anda visar lärarna på en vilja att öka integreringen mellan SO-ämnet och andra skolämnen.
