Analyse the essential ideas in the Ontological Argument The Ontological (meaning ‘concerned with being’) argument is the only a priori argument for the existence of God. This means that it does not rely on the evidence of our senses for its premises or conclusion. It works by logical stages, which is self evidently true or logically necessary. This is one of its major strengths. It is also deductive, so the conclusion is the only possible one that could be deduced give the premises.
We have come to see that separate is not equal and we should have an inclusive society that everyone can enjoy. Overall practising in an inclusive way means constantly asking : ‘What changes need to happen so that person can participate?’ and then doing whatever is within our area of responsibility to make those changes
Because epistemology requires a “something to be” and ontology provides the basis for that “something” a partnership between the two is formed (Vasilachis de Gialdino, 2009). All aspects of knowledge are in scope and focus for people studying epistemology. What is knowledge? How it is gained and used? Can it be known completely?
Philosophy: the love of wisdom The study of first causes, the ultimate nature of things. Because philosophical principles are ultimate/primary, there is nothing that precedes them. Knowledge is associated with science (to know) – person has science not by knowing a fact, but the reasoning for the fact, or cause. Wisdom is knowledge through causes – knowledge of first causes. Wisdom does not require any kind of experience beyond normal experience.
“The actualising tendency refers to the tendency in all forms of organic life towards more complex organisation, the fulfilment of potential, and in human beings, the actualisation of the whole person including the persons self” (Merry 2002). Through my own experience I believe there is a need for positive self regard in order for an individual to make positive choices and trust in their own decisions.”To develop a sense of trust in the accuracy and reliability of our own inner experiencing” (Merry 2002). Again through personal experiences I understand the effect of the conditions of worth have on individuals. I believe that these affect us later in life and can be explored
· Understand the importance of appropriate communication[->0]. Cultural Awareness An essential skill in the provision of culturally appropriate services, cultural awareness entails an understanding of how a person's culture may inform their values, behaviour, beliefs and basic assumptions. Cultural awareness recognises that we are all shaped by our cultural background, which influences how we interpret the world around us, perceive ourselves and relate to other people. You don't need to be an expert in every culture or have all the answers to be culturally aware; rather, cultural awareness helps you to explore cultural issues with your care recipients more sensitively. Information about specific cultural practices will help to increase your cultural knowledge by providing an overview of cultural characteristics and issues.
The reader must think about all the elements of the work and use them to make inferences, or reasonable guesses, as to which themes seem to be implied. An example of a theme on the subject of pride might be that pride often precedes a
So I would incorporate several parts of the many theories and models which have been introduced to me. The first theory that would be contained within my personal model is the Alderian theory. I believe that having an awareness of others beyond oneself is a significant characteristic of increasing knowledge about interconnectedness within one's situation. My view of helping is one that would manipulate maladaptive, dysfunctional, and unwanted behavior to ultimately a more positive behavior. Because roles are normally assigned, birth order and the structure of the family need to be considered.
Plan is going to talk about AOK (have to be specific) and WOK. Body (2 paragraphs) • Claim (WOKS) 1 paragraph • Counterclaim (WOKS) 2 paragraph Can we have beliefs or knowledge which are independent of our culture? Beliefs are the ideas in which we have faith in and we have emotion linked to. It sometimes shows us what decision to make basing us in our knowledge or in what is true to us. In that matter knowledge is what we have achieved or gain from our past experiences.
Each of our own influences, in turn, influences others. From there, we again take in and learn what we can so we can make our own decisions on how to define our selves. Later, society influences our thoughts on who we are as people and our relation to the world as a whole. There is a constant norm that people try to assimilate to or diverge from. Society presents its own ideas of who we should be as people, and it is then our own job to take that information and do what we will with it to make our own definition for ourselves of who we are.
