Download or read book Stepping Stones written by Bryan Britton and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2012-11-12 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The educational system in South Africa has failed the young learners of this new nation, says author Bryan Britton who has contributed this work as a very small step in the giant leap necessary to rehabilitate our highly susceptible youth and help them make sound and moral judgements. There has been little concern for the aspirations of the young people of South Africa. The benefits of learning, character building, moral education and religion were lost in the turmoil of the 1980s and 1990s, resulting in a rudderless, sometimes murderous element, pervading South African society. The Rainbow Nation is today the crime mecca of the world, and the haves now have more and the have nots, appallingly less. Can we put an end to this moral decay? Perhaps adopting sound, non-sexist, non-racial and evergreen wisdom from the past can be used to commence regenerating the shredded moral fibre of this country? To aid youngsters in their search for ethics, the author has gathered a selection of pertinent wisdom from the past. Perhaps young people in South Africa will see in these excerpts, building blocks with which to construct a viable morality for their young lives and hence for the country they are destined to inherit.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Growing up, children and teenagers have parents to protect and guide, but many become rebellious against parents and societal rules. At adulthood, many are lost in who or what to trust; most rely on immature feelings or judgment to make major life decisions. Consequently, many lives drift from one predicament to another, and most do not know why they keep encountering similar failures. From youth to old age, people need God to be at side to help make major life decisions, to choose a soul mate or partner, and to grow spirituality. Specifically, God can help to mend character flaws, boost merits, and improve personal judgment. This is the first book to guide people in receiving God's consent to communicate with him directly and some basics of such communication. Faith or religion not required to communicate.

Download or read book Agents of Change written by Ben Laurence and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2021-11-09 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An incisive argument for the relevance of political philosophy and its possibility of effecting change. The appeal of political philosophy is that it will answer questions about justice for the sake of political action. But contemporary political philosophy struggles to live up to this promise. Since the death of John Rawls, political philosophers have become absorbed in methodological debates, leading to an impasse between two unattractive tendencies: utopians argue that philosophy should focus uncompromisingly on abstract questions of justice, while pragmatists argue that we should concern ourselves only with local efforts to ameliorate injustice. Agents of Change shows a way forward. Ben Laurence argues that we can combine utopian justice and the pragmatic response to injustice in a political philosophy that unifies theory and practice in pursuit of change. Political philosophy, on this view, is not a purely normative theory disconnected from practice. Rather, political philosophy is itself a practiceÑan exercise of practical reason issuing in action. Laurence contends that this exercise begins in ordinary life with the confrontation with injustice. Philosophy draws ideas about justice from this encounter to be pursued through political action. Laurence shows that the task of political philosophy is not complete until it asks the question ÒWhat is to be done?Ó and deliberates actionable answers.
