Mind is said to be the power of thinking. It is the capacity for a reflective activity. More so, the functions of the human mind include: cognition, memory, imagination, volition, among others. It has been observed that some scholars ascribe mind to machines in the same way it is applied to human mind. They argue that there is no essential difference between the human mind and machines. This position has created the problem of human mind and artificial intelligence among philosophers of mind. Employing the philosophical method of analysis, this study observes that although a great deal of achievement has been recorded in the field of cybernetics, it is altogether unreasonable to attribute mind/intelligence to machine. The study maintains that machines, no matter how sophisticated they may be, do not have minds of their own, and this is seen in the fact that they cannot originate their own ideas; they lack creative and innovative capacities. The study therefore concludes that it is only human beings are truly intelligent; the so-called intelligence of machines is simply artificial in every sense of the word.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="71f985e07e1a188dd253a618c0f540e2" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":92979833,"asset_id":89125446,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/92979833/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="89125446"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="89125446"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 89125446; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=89125446]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=89125446]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 89125446; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='89125446']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (true){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "71f985e07e1a188dd253a618c0f540e2" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=89125446]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":89125446,"title":"The Problem of Human Mind and Artificial Intelligence: An Evaluation","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/89125446/The_Problem_of_Human_Mind_and_Artificial_Intelligence_An_Evaluation","owner_id":46784239,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":46784239,"first_name":"Dr. Ejikemeuwa","middle_initials":"J .

Today, some of our Nigerian schools especially the private ones no longer care for the good of the students nor the future of the society. Their quest is monetary acquisition ranging from nursery/primary to tertiary institutions. Pupils and students are required to buy textbooks, workbooks and handouts regardless of their relevance to their area of studies. Students pay through the nose without getting proper equivalent value. Many tertiary institutions 'sell' certificates and do all kinds of things in a bid to get money. Miracle centres abound not to equip students with knowledge but to enrich the owners of the centres. There are many ugly situations in this regard. The pertinent questions now are: What is the major aim for establishing an institution of learning? What is the role of Educational Authorities in forestalling the incessant pursuit of wealth and profit over quality, standard and best practices? Therefore, employing the philosophical method of phenomenology, this study observes that there is a misplacement of priority in the way and manner most Nigerian schools pursue the accumulation of money. The study recommends, among other things, that education should be seen as a human institution meant for the development of the human person and not primarily as a profitmaking venture. It further calls on all concerned government agencies to intensify efforts towards regulating the incessant quest for money by the school administrators and proprietors. The paper therefore concludes that education should be seen as a priceless value that MUST not be sacrificed at the altar of profit.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="48a5e6e1d8882fb9f8168f32da5bda6a" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":88292993,"asset_id":82658723,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/88292993/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="82658723"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="82658723"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 82658723; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=82658723]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=82658723]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 82658723; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='82658723']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (true){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "48a5e6e1d8882fb9f8168f32da5bda6a" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=82658723]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":82658723,"title":"Nigerian Schools and the Inordinate Quest for Money an Evaluation","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/82658723/Nigerian_Schools_and_the_Inordinate_Quest_for_Money_an_Evaluation","owner_id":46784239,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":46784239,"first_name":"Dr. Ejikemeuwa","middle_initials":"J .

What is truth? Is it an opinion? Does truth have a universal characteristic or standard? Does it differ in socio-cultural, socioreligious and socio-political terms? Truth is often seen as being in accordance with fact or reality. But that fact or reality can be argued by the relativists to be subject to change or only spurred for the moment. This present paper tends to look at Igwebuike as a concept and see how the term as an Igbo worldview represents a universal search for truth in reality and how it relates to relativism. Is truth absolute or is it relative? The Study seeks to answer this and the related questions. For the purpose of this paper, the Igwebuike Research method of inquiry was employed.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="82658695"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="82658695"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 82658695; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=82658695]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=82658695]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 82658695; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='82658695']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=82658695]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":82658695,"title":"Igwebuike, Relativism and the Quest for Truth","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/82658695/Igwebuike_Relativism_and_the_Quest_for_Truth","owner_id":46784239,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":46784239,"first_name":"Dr. Ejikemeuwa","middle_initials":"J .

Philosophy is viewed by some people as an irrelevant discipline; a discipline that lacks human touch. It is also viewed as an abstract enterprise only. Some people are of the view that philosophy was only relevant in the past and no longer relevant in our era of ever-growing science and technology. The pertinent questions now are: Is philosophy actually irrelevant to the contemporary society? What role does philosophy play or should play in our society? Therefore, employing the philosophical methods of analysis and phenomenology, this paper maintains that philosophy plays a vital role in our contemporary Nigerian society. The paper submits that philosophy is essential for an integral human development. It recommends for at least a little dosage of philosophical training for all, especially in all levels of our educational sector. This is premised on the fact that philosophy tr...</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="3ef64a88a9d56172228924032d82c3d8" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":88292968,"asset_id":82658674,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/88292968/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="82658674"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="82658674"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 82658674; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=82658674]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=82658674]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 82658674; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='82658674']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (true){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "3ef64a88a9d56172228924032d82c3d8" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=82658674]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":82658674,"title":"The Role of Philosophy in Contemporary Society: The Nigerian Experience","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/82658674/The_Role_of_Philosophy_in_Contemporary_Society_The_Nigerian_Experience","owner_id":46784239,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":46784239,"first_name":"Dr. Ejikemeuwa","middle_initials":"J .

Philosophy of life has to do with the general principles that guide an individual or group of individuals. It has to do with the ideology that helps individuals to understand and interpret the world. Studies have shown that Igbo philosophy of life is summed up as community consciousness, hard work, competiveness, adaptability to change, determination to success among other things. These are some of the qualities that characterize Igbo philosophy of life. Today, the proliferation of prayer houses in the southeast Nigeria is growing in geometric progression. Most of these prayer houses lay more emphasis on miracles, divine intervention and devil possession. Employing the philosophical methodof phenomenology, this study observes that the proliferation of prayer houses in Igboland –southeast Nigeria –encourages...</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="82658591"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="82658591"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 82658591; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=82658591]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=82658591]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 82658591; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='82658591']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=82658591]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":82658591,"title":"Igbo Philosophy of Life Vis-À-Vis the Proliferation of Prayer Houses in Southeast Nigeria: A Phenomenological Study","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/82658591/Igbo_Philosophy_of_Life_Vis_%C3%80_Vis_the_Proliferation_of_Prayer_Houses_in_Southeast_Nigeria_A_Phenomenological_Study","owner_id":46784239,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":46784239,"first_name":"Dr. Ejikemeuwa","middle_initials":"J .

Publikacijoje siekiama aptarti lietuvių liaudies dainų refrenų tyrimus, tikimasi parodyti, kokie tyrimo aspektai yra svarbūs analizuojant leksinės sistemos paribio reiškinius. Tyrimo tikslas-pristatyti lietuvių liaudies dainų refrenus ir jų atliekamas funkcijas dainose, pasvarstyti, ar tai yra kalbos ženklai, turintys reikšmę ar jos neturintys, ar tai žodžiai ar ne. Tyrimo uždaviniai: aptarus lietuvių liaudies dainų refrenų tyrimus, detaliau išnagrinėti įvairių lietuvių liaudies dainų tipų refrenus (tyrimo medžiaga-Lietuvių liaudies dainyno (LLD I-XXIV tomų) refrenai), pateikti galimą jų klasifikaciją, analizę ir išvadas. Raktažodžiai: refrenas, dainos, garsažodiniai refrenai, kvazileksiniai refrenai, kvazidarybiniai refrenai, leksinės sistemos paribio reiškiniai ĮVADAS Klausa suvokiama tikrovė kalba perteikiama labai įvairiai, yra daug galimybių ir raiškos būdų. Įvairiuose baltistikos tyrimuose jau seniai neabejojama lietuvių liaudies dainų reikšme. Dainų kalba ir jos ypatybės nuo seno domina įvairių filologijos sričių atstovus, tačiau lietuvių liaudies dainų refrenų kalbinė raiška iki šiol yra sulaukusi nedaug dėmesio. Lingvistams ir kitiems tyrėjams visada įdomūs buvo ir yra leksinės sistemos paribio reiškiniai-tai yra tie kalbos elementai ar ženklai, kurių vieta leksikos sistemoje dažnai apibūdinama klausimu: ar šis garsų derinys turi reikšmę ar neturi jos, ar tai žodis ar ne. Lietuvių kalboje, kaip ir kitose, egzistuoja bendrųjų fonotaktikos taisyklių leidžiamos, tačiau dažnai nerealizuotos struktūros, kurias neretai užpildo ne tik skoliniai, tarmių leksika, tikriniai žodžiai, bet ir emocinė ekspresinė leksika, kartais leksinės sistemos paribio reiškiniai [4, 16; 5, 9]-įvairių ritualų, mįslių, burtų formulės, keiksmažodžiai, vaikų leksika ir kt. Refrenai, kaip žodžio savybių turintys kalbos ženklai, taip pat yra laikytini leksinės sistemos paribio reiškiniu. Kilmės požiūriu refrenai yra afektiniai motoriniai kalbos elementai, patyrę kalbos raidos evoliuciją ir įgiję leksemoms būdingų ypatybių [23, 111]. Refrenai-dainų žanrą bei atlikimo laiką nurodantys ženklai [12, 9]. Kaip ir burtų, mįslių formulės, vaikų leksika ir kt., refrenai yra ir šūksminės poezijos reliktai. Dabartinės lietuvių kalbos žodyne refrenas apibūdinamas kaip ,,pasikartojanti dainos ar eilėraščio dalis, priedainis" [3].

Mind is said to be the power of thinking. It is the capacity for a reflective activity. More so, the functions of the human mind include: cognition, memory, imagination, volition, among others. It has been observed that some scholars ascribe mind to machines in the same way it is applied to human mind. They argue that there is no essential difference between the human mind and machines. This position has created the problem of human mind and artificial intelligence among philosophers of mind. Employing the philosophical method of analysis, this study observes that although a great deal of achievement has been recorded in the field of cybernetics, it is altogether unreasonable to attribute mind/intelligence to machine. The study maintains that machines, no matter how sophisticated they may be, do not have minds of their own, and this is seen in the fact that they cannot originate their own ideas; they lack creative and innovative capacities.

Today, some of our Nigerian schools especially the private ones no longer care for the good of the students nor the future of the society. Their quest is monetary acquisition ranging from nursery/primary to tertiary institutions. Pupils and students are required to buy textbooks, workbooks and handouts regardless of their relevance to their area of studies. Students pay through the nose without getting proper equivalent value. Many tertiary institutions 'sell' certificates and do all kinds of things in a bid to get money. Miracle centres abound not to equip students with knowledge but to enrich the owners of the centres. There are many ugly situations in this regard. The pertinent questions now are: What is the major aim for establishing an institution of learning? What is the role of Educational Authorities in forestalling the incessant pursuit of wealth and profit over quality, standard and best practices? Therefore, employing the philosophical method of phenomenology, this study observes that there is a misplacement of priority in the way and manner most Nigerian schools pursue the accumulation of money. The study recommends, among other things, that education should be seen as a human institution meant for the development of the human person and not primarily as a profitmaking venture. It further calls on all concerned government agencies to intensify efforts towards regulating the incessant quest for money by the school administrators and proprietors. The paper therefore concludes that education should be seen as a priceless value that MUST not be sacrificed at the altar of profit.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="48a5e6e1d8882fb9f8168f32da5bda6a" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":88292993,"asset_id":82658723,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/88292993/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="82658723"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="82658723"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 82658723; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=82658723]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=82658723]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 82658723; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='82658723']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (true){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "48a5e6e1d8882fb9f8168f32da5bda6a" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=82658723]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":82658723,"title":"Nigerian Schools and the Inordinate Quest for Money an Evaluation","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/82658723/Nigerian_Schools_and_the_Inordinate_Quest_for_Money_an_Evaluation","owner_id":46784239,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":46784239,"first_name":"Dr. Ejikemeuwa","middle_initials":"J .

What is truth? Is it an opinion? Does truth have a universal characteristic or standard? Does it differ in socio-cultural, socioreligious and socio-political terms? Truth is often seen as being in accordance with fact or reality. But that fact or reality can be argued by the relativists to be subject to change or only spurred for the moment. This present paper tends to look at Igwebuike as a concept and see how the term as an Igbo worldview represents a universal search for truth in reality and how it relates to relativism. Is truth absolute or is it relative? The Study seeks to answer this and the related questions.

Philosophy is viewed by some people as an irrelevant discipline; a discipline that lacks human touch. It is also viewed as an abstract enterprise only. Some people are of the view that philosophy was only relevant in the past and no longer relevant in our era of ever-growing science and technology. The pertinent questions now are: Is philosophy actually irrelevant to the contemporary society? What role does philosophy play or should play in our society? Therefore, employing the philosophical methods of analysis and phenomenology, this paper maintains that philosophy plays a vital role in our contemporary Nigerian society. The paper submits that philosophy is essential for an integral human development. It recommends for at least a little dosage of philosophical training for all, especially in all levels of our educational sector.

Publikacijoje siekiama aptarti lietuvių liaudies dainų refrenų tyrimus, tikimasi parodyti, kokie tyrimo aspektai yra svarbūs analizuojant leksinės sistemos paribio reiškinius. Tyrimo tikslas-pristatyti lietuvių liaudies dainų refrenus ir jų atliekamas funkcijas dainose, pasvarstyti, ar tai yra kalbos ženklai, turintys reikšmę ar jos neturintys, ar tai žodžiai ar ne. Tyrimo uždaviniai: aptarus lietuvių liaudies dainų refrenų tyrimus, detaliau išnagrinėti įvairių lietuvių liaudies dainų tipų refrenus (tyrimo medžiaga-Lietuvių liaudies dainyno (LLD I-XXIV tomų) refrenai), pateikti galimą jų klasifikaciją, analizę ir išvadas.

Įvairiuose baltistikos tyrimuose jau seniai neabejojama lietuvių liaudies dainų reikšme. Dainų kalba ir jos ypatybės nuo seno domina įvairių filologijos sričių atstovus, tačiau lietuvių liaudies dainų refrenų kalbinė raiška iki šiol yra sulaukusi nedaug dėmesio. Lingvistams ir kitiems tyrėjams visada įdomūs buvo ir yra leksinės sistemos paribio reiškiniai-tai yra tie kalbos elementai ar ženklai, kurių vieta leksikos sistemoje dažnai apibūdinama klausimu: ar šis garsų derinys turi reikšmę ar neturi jos, ar tai žodis ar ne. Lietuvių kalboje, kaip ir kitose, egzistuoja bendrųjų fonotaktikos taisyklių leidžiamos, tačiau dažnai nerealizuotos struktūros, kurias neretai užpildo ne tik skoliniai, tarmių leksika, tikriniai žodžiai, bet ir emocinė ekspresinė leksika, kartais leksinės sistemos paribio reiškiniai [4, 16; 5, 9]-įvairių ritualų, mįslių, burtų formulės, keiksmažodžiai, vaikų leksika ir kt. Refrenai, kaip žodžio savybių turintys kalbos ženklai, taip pat yra laikytini leksinės sistemos paribio reiškiniu. Kilmės požiūriu refrenai yra afektiniai motoriniai kalbos elementai, patyrę kalbos raidos evoliuciją ir įgiję leksemoms būdingų ypatybių [23, 111]. Refrenai-dainų žanrą bei atlikimo laiką nurodantys ženklai [12, 9]. Kaip ir burtų, mįslių formulės, vaikų leksika ir kt., refrenai yra ir šūksminės poezijos reliktai. Dabartinės lietuvių kalbos žodyne refrenas apibūdinamas kaip ,,pasikartojanti dainos ar eilėraščio dalis, priedainis" [3]. Tarptautinių žodžių žodyne refrenas aiškinamas kaip</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="b69fd6478af83cfb1b4724c62f30a9a7" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":83122355,"asset_id":75297176,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/83122355/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="75297176"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="75297176"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 75297176; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=75297176]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=75297176]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 75297176; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='75297176']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (true){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "b69fd6478af83cfb1b4724c62f30a9a7" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=75297176]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":75297176,"title":"Religion and Peace Building in Africa","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/75297176/Religion_and_Peace_Building_in_Africa","owner_id":46784239,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":46784239,"first_name":"Dr. Ejikemeuwa","middle_initials":"J .

Epistemology inquires into the nature, possibility and veracity of human knowledge. It deals with the object and problems of human knowledge. Logic, on its part, distinguishes correct reasoning from incorrect reasoning. It borders on the criteria or the yardstick for our acclaimed knowledge. Logic and epistemology are among the essential or major branches of philosophy. Logic provides the necessary 'instruments' for proper presentation of what we claim to know. Employing the method of philosophical analysis, this paper states that logic is very essential to the study of African Epistemology. The paper therefore concludes, among other things, that the function of logic in African epistemology is to provide the African epistemologist with good, coherent and systematic approach to objective knowledge acquisition.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="ab5c18e7f3c266ac9653df68ec011cd1" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":83122322,"asset_id":75297089,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/83122322/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="75297089"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="75297089"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 75297089; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=75297089]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=75297089]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 75297089; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='75297089']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (true){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "ab5c18e7f3c266ac9653df68ec011cd1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=75297089]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":75297089,"title":"Nature and Function of Logic in African Epistemology","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/75297089/Nature_and_Function_of_Logic_in_African_Epistemology","owner_id":46784239,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":46784239,"first_name":"Dr. Ejikemeuwa","middle_initials":"J .

It is also seen as one’s ability to meet certain laydown rules or standards. One thing that is clear from the above definition is that being morally good is not something that happens per chance. A person is not said to be honest or sincere simply by displaying honest action once. No. A person is said to be honest by constantly manifesting the character of honesty. In this regard, one can say that virtue has to do with habit. A virtuous person is one that has made effort to imbibe and also habitually manifest good moral behaviour. The Catechism of the Catholic Church (1994) states: “a virtue is an habitual and firm disposition to do the good. It allows the person not only to perform good acts, but to give the best of himself. The virtuous person tends towards the good with all his sensory and spiritual powers; he pursues the good and chooses it in concrete actions” (Pp. 438 – 439; No. 1803b). Virtue has to do with one’s constant effort to do the good.<br /><br />It is important to note that there are principally two kinds of virtues, namely, moral and theological virtues. The former is acquired by proper education and constant effort while the latter is said to be infused by God. It is not within the scope of the present work to go into a detailed discussion of the two kinds of virtues. Suffice it to say that our focus in this book will be more on moral virtues. Akam (1995) states that moral virtues “are strengthened by natural acts” (p. 26). The implication here is that virtue is all about knowing and doing but more of doing than mere knowing. It makes no sense to say that a person knows the good without doing the good. Such a person cannot be said to be virtuous.<br /><br />The book in your hands: The Virtuous Woman: Reflections on Nnemuruoha Susanna Onyemaechi Onah is an attempt to recognize and appreciate the efforts of Nnemuruoha Susanna Onyemaechi Onah towards imbibing and most importantly manifesting good moral character despite all odds and challenges of life. It is undeniable the fact that Nnemuruoha Onah is truly a virtuous woman who is quite loving, altruistic, disciplined, caring, industrious and very well committed to the things of God, human and community development. Her imprints within and outside her immediate environment are testimonies of her outstanding way of life and noble qualities. The Holy Scripture says: “by their fruits, you shall know them” (Mtt. 7:20). This book is written in thanksgiving to God for the 70th birthday (1950 – 2020) of Nnemuruoha S. O. Onah. It is my sincere and earnest prayer that God will continue to keep Nnemuruoha in sound health of mind and body to enable her to continue to live virtuous and exemplary life. Happy 70th birthday Mama!</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="779a797409990ea8288ee44085eed353" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":62519051,"asset_id":42359724,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/62519051/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="42359724"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="42359724"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 42359724; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=42359724]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=42359724]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 42359724; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='42359724']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (true){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "779a797409990ea8288ee44085eed353" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=42359724]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":42359724,"title":"The Virtuous Woman.","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/42359724/The_Virtuous_Woman","owner_id":46784239,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":46784239,"first_name":"Dr. Ejikemeuwa","middle_initials":"J .
