Are We Robots or Are We Sentient Beings?

Pasquale De Marco

Sinopsis

Are we robots or are we sentient beings? This is one of the most profound questions that humans have ever asked themselves. In this book, we will explore this question and many others, including:

* What is the nature of consciousness?
* Do we have free will?
* What is the meaning of life?
* Why does evil exist?
* What is the future of humanity?

We will explore these questions from a new perspective, one that is informed by the latest advances in neuroscience, artificial intelligence, and other fields. We will examine the evidence for and against the idea that we are simply robots, programmed to behave in certain ways. We will also consider the possibility that we are conscious beings, with the ability to make our own choices and create our own meaning in life.

We will also look at the problem of evil. If God is all-powerful and all-loving, why does evil exist? This is a question that has vexed philosophers and theologians for centuries. We will examine the different ways that people have tried to solve the problem of evil, and we will consider the implications of these solutions for our own lives.

Finally, we will look to the future of humanity. What will the world be like in 100 years? 1,000 years? 10,000 years? It is impossible to say for sure, but by examining the trends that are shaping our world today, we can make some educated guesses about what the future holds. We will consider the impact of technology, climate change, and other factors on the future of our species.

This book is a journey of exploration, a quest for understanding. It is a book that will challenge your assumptions and open your mind to new possibilities. It is a book that will help you to see the world in a new light and to live a more meaningful and fulfilling life.

I've Been Here All the While -...

Alaina E. Roberts

Perhaps no other symbol has more resonance in African American history than that of "forty acres and a mule"—the lost promise of Black reparations for slavery after the Civil War. In I've Been Here All the While, we meet the Black people who actually received this mythic forty acres, the American settlers who coveted this land, and the Native Americans whose holdings it originated from. 
 
 
 
In nineteenth-century Indian Territory (modern-day Oklahoma), a story unfolds that ties African American and Native American history tightly together, revealing a western theatre of Civil War and Reconstruction, in which Cherokee, Choctaw, Chickasaw, Creek, and Seminole Indians, their Black slaves, and African Americans and whites from the eastern United States fought military and rhetorical battles to lay claim to land that had been taken from others. 
 
 
 
Through chapters that chart cycles of dispossession, land seizure, and settlement in Indian Territory, Alaina E. Roberts draws on archival research and family history to upend the traditional story of Reconstruction. She connects debates about Black freedom and Native American citizenship to westward expansion onto Native land.

Love Offers No Safety -...

Jude Dibia, Olumide Makanjuola

Love Offers No Safety: Nigeria's Queer Men Speak is a raw and powerful collection of 25 first-person narratives that explore the diverse experience of queer Nigerian men. These stirring stories cut across age, class, religion, ethnicity, family and relationships, offering a glimpse into what it means to survive as a queer man in Nigeria. From Tunji, who takes us back to the thriving networking community before social media, to Chukwori, who struggles to reconcile his need to serve God with his sexuality, and Abdulkarim, who frustratingly wonders if he'll ever stop working twice as hard to be accepted, these stories are full of contradictions, anger, resiliency, profound insight, and radical hope.

With heightened levels of oppression, violence, and discrimination faced by LGBTQ Nigerians due to the Same Sex Marriage (Prohibition) Law, these voices remind us of what the queer community in Nigeria has always been fighting for - the freedom to be themselves, love themselves, and love each other, despite being viewed as unworthy. Love Offers No Safety is a heart-breaking yet hopeful reminder that love knows no boundaries and offers no safety, but it is worth fighting for.

Abuse - Understanding the...

Wesley Felt

This book consists of two titles, which are about the following topics:
1 - The term "mind control" is often used in various contexts, but it broadly refers to different methods of influencing or taking control of the mind. The critical question is: whose mind is being controlled?
There are several methods of mind control, each stemming from different disciplines. Techniques for controlling others' minds are distinct from those used to influence one's own mind, which is why various types of mind control exist.
For those looking to change and influence the thoughts of others, learning hypnosis and Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) is essential. While NLP primarily focuses on personal development, it provides insight into the personality traits of those you wish to influence.
For example, a common NLP technique involves covert or conversational hypnosis, where an individual subtly implants thoughts while engaging in seemingly normal conversation. Over time, the recipient may believe these ideas originated from their own thoughts, even though they were subtly guided by the influencer.
2 - Remorse, regret, and saying "I'm sorry" are crucial for effective and balanced social interactions. These concepts, when practiced, increase the chances of successful relationships. Ignoring or rejecting these elements can lead to criminal or deviant behavior, with victimization often being a central aspect. The phrase "I'm sorry" is one of the most powerful and complex expressions in communication.
Throughout history, the phrase "I'm sorry" has been a fundamental part of societal and cultural exchanges across various languages. Its significance lies in acknowledging human fallibility, as our actions or words can cause temporary anger or lasting psychological harm. Understanding the origins and meanings of "I'm sorry" can deepen one's appreciation of this important expression.
