The role of catholic faith on health - post-pandemic: theological reflection

Health is one of the main elements in human life. Everyone always gives ample space for their health. However, sometimes people forget this when their life goals are not well understood or are limited to certain achievements. This scientific work examines the reinterpretation of the Catholic faith as a search for human nature and how the Catholic faith and health are actually an inseparable unity because humans are complete creatures. Apart from that, this scientific work also reflects the ideal human attitude in facing crises, especially health crises in the new post-pandemic era, namely "Being human also means being a healthy human being" because humans who are able to find faith can understand it. the importance of health in their lives. For those who understand the integral relationship between the Catholic faith and health, this provides confirmation of the true dignity of human beings, including their relationship to "the Divine."

The criterion of human dignity in the Quran.

In the Holy Quran, a strong emphasis has been placed on the dignity of human beings. There are two verses in the Quran that discuss the differences between humans and other creatures. In this article, we have tried to interpret these two verses using free selection of virtues and goodness as the criterion for human dignity that was obtained in our previous research. In the verse of trust, unlike other creatures, man accepts a trust that informs us about his cruelty and ignorance. However, if we consider this trust as freedom of choice, it can also imply injustice and ignorance alongside justice and wisdom for humans. In the verse of succession, angels tell God that human as vicegerent on earth leads to corruption and bloodshed. God does not deny this, but reminds the angels of the existence of pure ones. If we consider freely choosing goodness the differentiating factor between humans and other creatures the angels accurately refer to the possibility of creating corruption and bloodshed. However, they did not see the value of voluntary goodness compared to their own compulsory goodness. Therefore, by considering freely choosing goodness as the criterion for human dignity, these two verses can be easily interpreted.

Immanuel Kant: elucidations on education and moral development

This text seeks to present the contributions of the philosopher Immanuel Kant with regard to pedagogical practice and its relationship with the development of morality. These themes are found in his works: Foundations of the Metaphysics of Customs (1785), Critique of Practical Reason (1788) and On Pedagogy (1803). Based on these, the aim is to present some of the philosopher's points about the importance of instruction for the moral formation of the individual, based on the understanding that negative discipline and positive instruction are essential elements in this construction. For Kant, education must begin in childhood and be geared towards moral evolution, since it is not innate and must be cultivated. This morality, according to Kant, needs to be based exclusively on reason, since all humans are equally rational and all are subject to the same moral law. As a result, the action must be performed out of respect for the moral law, even if it is contrary to personal inclinations or brings harm to the agent himself. In order to be sure that your action is in accordance with the moral law, you need to reflect on the possibility of its universalization, in other words, whether it can be carried out by all human beings without harming anyone. In this sense, only morality based entirely on reason can preserve the dignity of human beings and promote their progress.

Compatibility of Human Rights and Sharia: The Perspective of Interreligious Leaders in South and West Aceh Indonesia

Human rights and Islamic law are two distinct sources of law with the common orientation of upholding the dignity of human beings. This study aimed to explore the compatibility of the two to avoid any conflicts and to ensure legal development that considers both human rights values and Islamic law, particularly in Aceh where Islamic law is implemented. The study began by asking two fundamental questions: how are human rights and Islamic law compatible in the context of legal development in Aceh? And how do interfaith figures in southwest Aceh view the compatibility of human rights and Islamic law? The study utilized qualitative research methods with a phenomenological approach and an interpretive paradigm, and it concluded with a continuous qualitative narrative analysis from the start of the research until its completion. The research findings indicate that human rights and Islamic law have been incorporated into the formulation of every law and can accommodate all segments of society in Aceh, both in terms of religion and humanity. Additionally, human rights and Sharia law in Aceh have found a point of convergence that is supported by the acceptance of cross-religious communities, particularly in southwestern Aceh. Thus, this research suggests that human rights and Sharia law are not in conflict with each other because they share the same orientation of respecting the dignity of humanity.

Evolution of Anti-Slavery Sentiments From 1776 to 1865 & a Critique of Reparations

Slavery existed in pre-modern societies throughout the world. While enslaving other peoples in most civilizations was legal, only Western civilization developed a moral revulsion against it. Therefore, the United States dialogue about slavery and reparations should focus on recognizing the 4000 years of slavery that ended through the efforts of abolitionists and their allies. The American abolitionist movement was fueled by a diverse group of individuals, including Quaker abolitionists, women’s rights activists, and influential figures like Olaudah Equiano, Frederick Douglass, Sojourner Truth, and Martin Delany. The moral and political philosophies of Kant, Mill, Nietzsche, and Hegel also influenced the abolitionist movement with ideas about the inherent worth and dignity of human beings, individual liberty, and freedom, shaping the abolitionist movement’s vision of a future without slavery. This led to a Civil War which was the catalyst for ratifying a U.S. Constitutional Amendment in 1865 that eliminated slavery nationwide. In 2019, discussions resurfaced about reparations for slavery, raising questions about justice, individual responsibility, and the potential impact on social cohesion.

Germany’s Attitude Vis-à-vis International Crime and its Prosecution by Domestic Courts

International and national immunities prevent prosecution. They must therefore be observed ex officio. In the case of a subordinate Afghan military officer and his acts relevant under international criminal law, the highest German criminal court, by ruling of 28 January 2021, found that customary international law does not contain such immunities, if the accused officer committed Rome Statute offences abroad against non-German victims. The finding reinforces the principle of global jurisdiction according the Rome Statute. The court defined the legal war crimes element of torture. Torture does not necessarily require the use of physical force; injuries suffered are therefore an indicator. The concept of torture is also satisfied if an atmosphere of violence is created that may influence the victim’s right to self-determination in the intention of the torturer. An additional crime element consisted in the violation of post-mortem dignity of human beings, which demands respectful treatment of dead opponents. A public display of dead adversaries for the purpose of propaganda runs counter this.

Marie Poussepin's Influence on Nursing from Her Vocation of Service and Charity.

This work sought to describe the influence of Marie Poussepin on Nursing from her vocation of service and charity. Historical-hermeneutic study with participation by 15 Dominican Sisters of Charity in the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin from the city of Manizales and Bogotá, Colombia, who answered semi-structured interviews. The information was gathered and recontextualized via the open and axial coding system through ATLAS.ti9 software. During the interpretation procedure, copying, intensive reading, note taking, analysis, first epigraph of the report, coding, grouping, and determination of categories was made, conducting information triangulation with existing evidence. Three categories emerged: Responding to the call of Jesus through service to the community; Under the legacy of charity, respect for life and the dignity of human beings, and Caring for life as a foundation of nursing. The second category formulated the description that integrates the course of life and objectives of the institutions where the nuns interviewed work. The legacy by Marie Poussepin to nursing care has been manifested since the foundation of the work, influencing the disciplinary work through the vocational commitment of those who make up the congregation, imprinting a character of service and respect for others, in response to the love of God.

Svätopluk Štúr’s criticism of Nietzsche’s vitalism

Abstract Svätopluk Štúr is a strong critic of strands of German thought that emphasize the will to power as an organizing principle of human society. Štúr is particularly critical of Nietzsche’s vitalism, which Štúr believes culminated in national socialism and the destruction of the Second World War. This paper describes and examines Štúr’s criticism of a number of German thinkers and focuses especially on Štúr’s criticism of Nietzsche. Štúr criticizes Nietzsche’s emphasis on life over knowledge. Štúr offers a different philosophy of life grounded in the dignity of human beings and the social consequences of ideas and actions. This paper concludes by examining what Štúr means by dignity in terms of a moral agent and as opposed to Nietzsche’s emphasis on vitalism.

Advocating access to justice: Facilitating or gatekeeping?

Advocacy is one of the central means for supporting access to justice. The social work profession has advocacy as one of its main courses of action. This discusses the components in actions that are considered as good practice for facilitating access to justice in its democratic aspects. More explicitly social workers advocacy for promoting the worth and dignity of human beings in society. Four different ideals in social work are presented, self-help, treatment, philanthropy and bureaucracy. Thereafter, cases presented as best practice from European social workers are used for pointing out the central components described for good advocacy work. These are communication, inclusion and flexibility. Taken together, the aspects all go back to having respect for those in need of advocacy. In advocating for access to justice, it is important that the advocates are actively aware of their own role in a way that their efforts facilitate access to justice.

THE ROLE OF ISLAM AND SIKHISM IN CHECKING RELIGIOUS INTOLERANCE

In recent times, the biggest obstacle to ensuring the security and dignity of human beings is the rise of religious intolerance. The problem needs a broad explanation. There have been several reasons behind the increase in this problem. This study explores misconceptions and lack of knowledge about different religions as one of the principal reasons for the rise of religious intolerance. Misconceptions about secularism and pluralism also accelerate the problem. The present researcher considers that violations of human rights and lack of religious freedom are the root causes of the rise of intolerance and religious extremism. Religious norms and values, and the objective study of different religious faiths play a significant role in establishing a peaceful society. The present research tries to find out the notion of Islam and Sikhism, in resisting religious intolerance on the one hand and establishing communal harmony on the other. Human beings do not live only for material necessities. There is a strong need for the spiritual nourishment of every human being. In this perspective, religions convey the universal messages of peace, security, tolerance and the protection of human rights and dignity among all, irrespective of class, race, and caste. The current paper deals with liberal approaches of Islam and Sikhism that encompass the spirit of brotherhood, catholicity, equality, pluralism, tolerance, and peaceful coexistence among the followers of different faiths.

Membangun Spiritualitas Dialogal Antariman Umat Katolik dengan Umat Beragama Lain

Mission of the church today should and foremost be characterized as an exercise of dialogue.Just as the interior life of God is a perfect communion of gift and reception,identity and openness to the other, communion in relationship and communion in mission, so the church that is called into being by that mission must be a community that not only gives of itself in service to the world and to the peoples of the world,s cultures but learns from its involvement and expands its imagination ot the depths of God unfathomable riches.And just as the ways about persuasion and freedom - respecting love, mission can no longer proceeds in wys that neglect the freedom and dignity of human beings. Nor can a church that is rooted in a God that saves through self-emptying think ofitself as culturally superior to the peoples among whom it works.Mission,as participation in the mission of the triune God can only proceed in dialogue and can only be carried out in humility.

Threats to Survival: Deterioration of Daily Life and Dignity of Human Beings in North-Eastern Wallagga

This research aims to investigate the issues faced by local communities in the North-Eastern Wallagga region of Ethiopia, such as threats to their survival, declining standards of living, and loss of respect. The study is based on a review of existing literature and development organizations reports. The study found that human rights violations, displacement, and insecurity are prevalent due to political instability, social tensions, economic challenges and historical grievances. As a result, many individuals and families are suffering from trauma, fear, and loss of dignity, as well as limited access to basic resources and services. To address these issues, a comprehensive approach is required that prioritizes the needs and preferences of affected communities, promotes sustainable development, social cohesion, and human rights. The study proposes various recommendations, such as encouraging inter-community dialogue, improving governance and the rule of law, addressing economic challenges, supporting humanitarian assistance efforts, and promoting social justice.

Utopia Lost – Human Rights in a Digital World

The long progress towards universal human rights is regressing. This regression is pronounced within digital spaces once thought to be potential bulwarks of a new era in human rights. Yet, new technologies have given rise to threats that undermine the autonomy, empathy, and dignity of human beings. Early visions of human rights being strengthened by networked technologies have instead crashed into technological realities which not only do not advance human rights discourses but rather serve to actively undermine fundamental human rights in countries around the world. The future of human rights is increasingly threatened by advances that would make George Orwell blush. Omnipresent data collection and algorithmic advances once promising a utopian world of efficiency and connection are deeply interwoven with challenges to anonymity, privacy and security. This paper examines the impact of technological advances on the regression of human rights in digital spaces. The paper examines the development of human rights through changes in concepts of autonomy, empathy, dignity and charts their regression as technologies increasingly prey on these very same characteristics that undergird human rights discourses.

MEMAKNAI PENGALAMAN UMAT MUSLIM YANG BEKERJA DI LEMBAGA KATOLIK

It is common to find adherents of the Islamic faith working in Catholic institutions such as in St. Peter’s Diocesan Formation House, Faculty of Philosophy of St. Thomas Catholic University, the Alverna Capuchin Fraternity, and the Nagahuta Franciscan Formation House (RPF), Simalungun Regency. The former three Catholic institutions are located in Sinaksak, Tapian Dolok District, Simalungun Regency. Dozens of Muslims have worked in one of these Catholic institutions for between 4-30 years. By interviewing five of them about their experiences working in Catholic institutions, significant perceptions and experiences were obtained, namely: conducive workplace, tolerance, dialogue, friendship, religion, and hope. Coexistence between Muslims and Catholics departs from and is grounded in humanity or the same dignity of human beings

Dignity for the Queer African: How the Right to Dignity in International Human Rights Law Imposes Obligations on All States to Protect Sexual Minorities

The right to dignity of sexual minorities has continued to be violated across Africa, necessitating the need to deploy national, regional, and global human rights to secure its promotion and protection. Human dignity is a central value of the international human rights normative system and over the last few decades, the international human rights system has generally accepted the notion that all humans are endowed with equal dignity. Although the concept of dignity itself and the scope of its application continues to be contested by states, human rights documents acknowledge the recognition of the inherent dignity of all persons without discrimination. Unfortunately, sexual minorities in Africa continue to be stripped of their dignity through acts of public and private humiliation; criminalisation of their identities under laws that specify penalties ranging from prison terms to the death sentence, and through hate speech and acts of violence. The application of the concept of human dignity to the protection of sexual minorities in Africa remains problematic in state law and policy. This article contends that, based on the state’s recognition and protection of the inherent dignity of human beings, all African states still owe obligations toward sexual minorities. To this end, this article examines the development of the concept of dignity in Western thought and its subsequent impact on international human rights law. It also teases out the meaning of dignity in international human rights law under global and regional jurisprudence with a view to highlighting the obligations of African states towards sexual minorities.

Ethics and Democracy in Access to Food. The Venezuelan Case

The humanitarian emergency that Venezuela is experiencing, one of whose edges is the food insecurity of more than 80% of the population, coincides with the serious institutional deterioration of the country and with the rupture of the constitutional order under the so-called “socialism of the 21st century” (2005 to the present), as reflected in various reports, including that of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights. Access to food as a fundamental human right is better valued and guaranteed in democracies, where free media and independent public powers function as counterweights to the central executive power and act as effective instruments for correcting the wrong policies in food and nutritional matters, and officials responsible for direct and indirect damages to the general population or to vulnerable groups, are sanctioned. This topic has been studied by Nobel laureate Amartya Sen. In functional democracies, the ethical dimension of the right to food is also better guaranteed, since this right is realized not only by ensuring sufficient, balanced and healthy food, to meet the nutritional needs of the population, but that food is supplied in a culturally acceptable manner and seeking ways, mechanisms and procedures that are not contrary to the dignity of human beings. As a human right, the State has the greatest responsibility in guaranteeing the right to food, but not to fulfill a mere welfare duty or as a benefactor, but to guarantee that no one suffers from hunger or severe malnutrition, providing safe, nutritious and sufficient food, to those who cannot do it themselves, prevent all forms of discrimination in access to food or resources that are used to produce them, such as land, and take measures to ensure that families and their members can feed themselves in a dignified manner. As the Venezuelan regime closed the door to freedoms, malnutrition, hunger and non-fulfillment of the right to food also grew, according to FAO reports and Sen's assumptions under these scenarios seem to hold in the country.

Student Competency in Interpreting Medical Imaging: How Virtual vs. In‐Person Cadaveric Dissection Influences Student Perception and 3D Awareness of the Human Body

Introduction As a medical student's first encounter with human anatomy, cadaveric dissection facilitates a comprehensive, three-dimensional (3D) understanding of the human body. We believe that this interaction is vital for future clinicians' ability to interpret medical imaging, specifically when the anatomy may be viewed in different planes, such as in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). In this study, we evaluated how learning anatomy through cadaveric vs. virtual dissection software programs affected medical students' ability to interpret medical imaging, as well as the impact it had on student satisfaction with their anatomical education. Methods Twenty first year medical students and 8 senior-level pre-medical students were recruited for this study, each of them having no prior experience with cadaveric dissection. The first year medical students learned anatomy via virtual dissection software, while the pre-medical students performed in-person dissections. After both groups completed the musculoskeletal system in their respective program, each student was given a 16-question agree/neutral/disagree survey with questions regarding their confidence and satisfaction with their anatomical education, as well as questions about respecting human dignity and empathizing with future patients. Following the survey, each student was asked to complete a 30-question open-answer assessment which asked them to identify various musculoskeletal structures on MRI scans. Both cohorts received identical assessments and were given the same time restrictions. Two months later, each student was asked to complete a second, identical 30-question assessment in order to evaluate anatomical knowledge retention. Results The pre-medical students who were enrolled in a human anatomy dissection course scored higher than the first year medical students learning anatomy virtually on both assessments in this study. The pre-medical students had average scores of 43.3% (SD 9.4) and 41.7% (SD 10.8) for the initial and 2-month assessments, respectively. The first-year medical students had average scores of 37.5% (SD 12.6) and 32.2% (SD 13.4) for the initial and 2-month assessments, respectively. Additionally, the survey results demonstrated that the majority of first-year medical students (90%) felt that the virtual software was inadequate compared to in-person dissection. The survey also revealed that those who participated in cadaveric dissection developed more respect for the dignity of human beings and empathy for future patients (87.5% and 100%, respectively) compared to those who did not (25% and 5%, respectively). Conclusion This study demonstrates that cadaveric dissection provides several benefits to future physicians. In-person dissection facilitates a deeper understanding of the anatomy, and provides a 3D awareness of the human body that enables future physicians to comprehend anatomy on multiple planes. Additionally, this study demonstrates that cadaveric dissection not only improves student satisfaction, but it develops intangible characteristics in future physicians such as respect and empathy for human beings.

The genocide in Rwanda remains one of the most tragic and horrendous events witnessed in Africa, and an important case study in the exploits of transitional justice. An approximated number of one million people were subjected to systematic rape, murder and torture with several thousands of people being displaced in the process of ethnic conflict in Rwanda-evidencing genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity. Rwanda provides yet another example of the need for justice in post-conflict states, and the need to protect human rights and the restoration of the dignity of human beings. However, a post-conflict situation has to contend with how this justice is dispensed, by whom, towards whom and to what end. This paper argues that partial justice was served (and continues to be) in Rwanda concomitant with victor’s justice and the political opportunism of the emergent Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF) government. Key words: Political opportunism, genocide, impunity, transitional justice, human rights.
