...Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi was the shah of Iran for about from 1941 to his overthrown by the Iranian revolution on February 11, 1979. He took the title of the shah from his father who was the last shaw. Iran was a poor and uncivilized country and when Russia wanted to move forward the completely control of the country the Unites States helped to gave him back the throne and power of his country. Pahlavi wanted to Westernize his country and transformed his country in a modern Iran. The shaw had suffered a lot of criticism because many believed that the Westernization did not follow the Islam religion. Also the lower class were discontented by the unfair conditions of how the corrupted government was working toward them. Another aspect that...

...Gandhi once said that, “We must respect other religions, even as we respect our own. Mere tolerance thereof is not enough”. The Islamic and Christian religions are those of large quantity and influence the world on a daily basis. The founders, Jesus and Mohammad were leaders of these two very distinct followings and are traced historically, had a huge impact on their religion both in the past and in the present, and were worshiped by many. Their messages are also being carried out through the world in present day, by the followers of each religion. Examining and getting closer to the position in each religion that these key people had is extremely important into understanding each religion in present day. Jesus was born of the Virgin Mary in 4 B.C.E, but his followers believe that he was conceived by God, which is known as the immaculate conception of the Virgin Mother. His family was in Bethlehem during his birth, but then later returned to Nazareth where he grew up. He was named Jesus which means, “God saves” (Fisher, 2005). Jesus’ life wasn’t noted until he was the age of about twelve, when he traveled to Jerusalem and his parents left him behind, and was found by rabbis reading the Torah. He was reprimanded by the rabbis, and it started his quest for understanding and connection between him and God. This started his quest of finding himself as well, and the Christian religion began to then develop. Jesus through his twenties was trying to branch out of Judaism and was...

...The two main religions’ that are practiced by the society of today seems to be at odds with each other. These two religions claim the same stories in history, and the biblical prophets of both of these religions are very similar. The messages of Christianity and Islam are very much alike, although some negative events that have been carried out in the name of these two religions that can damage, and change a person’s point of view. Unfortunately, religions are usually scarred because of tragedies’ that have happened in the religions name. Many wonder how messages written by the prophets can be interpreted in a way that could bring on negative behaviors in the name of religion. Jesus and Mohammad are known as figures in the Christianity and Muslim religion. The actions and teachings of these two men have been a part of the lives people for over a thousand years. These religions are still practiced today, although these two men, who are very different from each other, have influenced the world of religions. Jesus only lived his into his early thirties but within that short life he left a trail of history. He was born in Bethlehem, which is located in Israel. He was born to the Virgin Mary as an immaculate conception, with Joseph being his earthly father. As a baby he lived in Egypt, and in later years he lived in Nazareth, Israel, thus became known as Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus followed the footsteps of his father Joseph by becoming a carpenter. Jesus started teaching...

...Jesus and Mohammad September 23, 2012 HUM/130 - RELIGIONS OF THE WORLD Instructor: THOMAS THIESSEN By Elizabeth Koch Submit a 1,250- to 1,500-word paper in which you compare and contrast the lives of Jesus and Mohammed in relation to each respective religion. Complete the following steps in your paper: • Contrast the way Christians and Muslims view Jesus. • Trace the lives of Jesus and Mohammed historically. • Compare what impact the death of each person had on his respective religion. • Compare and contrast the views of God believed in Christianity and Islam. The Muslims believe that Adam, Moses, Jesus, and Muhammad are the requirements for anyone who calls themselves Muslims. If someone says that Jesus is not a messenger of God is not a true Muslim. They believe that Jesus was just that a messenger and nothing more he was moral. They believe that he was born of a virgin and that it was Gods will for this to happen even though no man had touched her. They believe that Gabriel is the father of Jesus because it was God’s will. The Muslim believe that he is perform miracles but that he was given the power from God though the angel Gabriel. The Muslims do not believe in the Trinity as the Christians do. They also do not believe that he is the son of God but a mortal not a god. Christians believe in Adam, Moses, and Jesus as members of the faith and you need to believe that Jesus is the son of God and he can to dies for us. Jesus is the...

...Mohammad Yunus I found the lecture by Muhammad Yunus to be very interesting. At first I was wondering why an economist and bank owner was given the Nobel Prize for Peace and not Economics. Through the address he made, it became more apparent as to why he an industry like Grameen Bank received such recognition. By making a clear connection between poverty and the prospect of peace, Grameen Bank is fighting poverty and promoting peace. As long as people are in poverty, they suffer from anger, frustration, and hostilities that make it impossible to sustain peace in their society. With poverty all around Yunus, he couldn’t ignore it anymore, he couldn’t teach about the adverse effects of poverty in an economic system while people living within walking distance of the university knew nothing other than poverty. Since he created the Grameen Bank in 1974, it has given loans to over seven million people in over seventy three thousand Bengali villages. The bank gives out thirty thousand scholarships and approved thirteen thousand student loans, a number which increases by over seven thousand every year. An offshoot from the bank is Grameen Phone, a company committed to spreading the rise of technology and communication across all of Bangladesh. Companies like Grameen Bank and Grameen Phone are some of what Yunus likes to call social businesses. These social businesses operate much like a traditional business except they make no profit for their investors. That is not to say...

...Jesus and Mohammad Paper HUM 130 – January 22, 2012 Jesus and Mohammad have been and are still very important figures in the world. Both Jesus and Mohammad were both created as earthly beings, although both differ in religious teachings and historical records. The major differences between the two were religious beliefs, prayer and practices and the message that was conveyed as a result of their teachings. The creation of Jesus and Mohammad was also very different because Jesus was conceived to the Virgin Mary through the Holy Spirit by Immaculate Conception. Mohammad was conceived by earthly pair, which were a man and a woman. The religion concerning Jesus is known as Christianity and the followers of that religion are called Christians. Mohammad is the central figure in the Islamic religion and those followers are referred to as Muslims. This paper will describe key differences and similarities between the two following their histories through life and death. My main focus will include their creation, death and central beliefs. The Virgin Mary and Joseph were the earthly parents of Jesus in Bethlehem. Jesus was born in a stable while in the presence of Mary, Joseph and Three Wise Men, as the story goes. The name “Jesus” was used because of the meaning it held which was roughly translated as “God Saves”. Following Mary’s Immaculate Conception, the belief in Jesus as a Holy being, conceived through the Holy Spirit was cause for many followers. In Jerusalem while attending...

...What in your view were the reasons for divorce between GM and Daewoo? In 1984, General Motors (GM) and Daewoo formed a 50/50 joint venture (JV) called the Daewoo Motor Company. GM and Daewoo each contributed $100 million in equity. The JV would produce the Pontiac LeMans, which was based on GM’s popular Opel Kadett model developed by GM’s wholly owned German Subsidiary Opel. Commentators hailed the alliance as a brilliant outcome of a corporate marriage of German technology and Korean labor (whose cost was low at that time). As a win-win combination, GM would tackle the small car market in North America and eventually expand into Asia, while Daewoo would gain access to superior technology. Unfortunately, the alliance was problematic. By the late 1980s, Korean workers at the JB launched a series of bitter strikes to demand better pay. Ultimately, the JV had to more than double their wages, wiping out the low cost advantage and the poor quality of the LeMans. Electrical systems and brakes often failed. Daewoo, however, argued that the poor sales were primarily due not to the quality problems but to GM’s poor marketing efforts that had not treated the LeMans as one of GM’s own models. Further, Daewoo was deeply frustrated by GM’s determination to block efforts to export the LeMans to Eastern Europe, which Daewoo saw as its ideal market. GM’s reasoning was that Eastern Europe was Opel’s territory. GM’s Expectation * Increase in imports (80,000 to 1,00,000 cars a year) ...

...Jesus and Mohammad Jason Smith HUM 130 November 6, 2011 Jesus and Mohammad The teachings of faith and the word of God that was originally spread by Jesus Christ and the prophet Mohammad have stood the test of time and are still followed to this day. Even though these two men lived very different lives they both had the divine mission to show the people that there is only one true God and to spread his word where ever they should travel. Their lives and customs were different yet they both suffered greatly at the hands of non believers in order to spread the word of their one true God. Mohammad Mohammad was born an ordinary man in 570 CE. This ordinary man was soon to become a prophet who was to reveal to everyone that Islam was the true religion and the original path of monotheism. Allah (God) is the only God and sole authority for Islam; however Mohammad was to be his messenger and was believed by Muslims to be the model for the teachings in the Qur’an. It is believed that Mohammad’s sayings and actions of his life are preserved in the Hadith. Mohammad’s father had died before he was born and when he still young his mother and grandfather passed away leaving him to live with his uncle and to become a shepherd. It was during a trip to Syria with his uncle that Mohammad caught the eye of a Christian monk who saw marks upon his body that indicated he was a prophet. Throughout this time Mohammad continued to work and soon became the manager of caravans...

...Jesus and Mohammed Paper Jesus and Mohammed Jesus Christ and Mohammad are two prophets that have changed many individuals’ views on both Christian and also Islamic religion. Both religions originate from the Middle East. Christianity and Islam worshippers obey the Ten Commandments. It is also important for each worshipper of the two religions to love their neighbor as well as forgive one another. Although there are many similarities within the two religions there are also major differences that separate the two. Jesus as well as Mohammad’s death had a major impact on the path of Christianity as well as Islamic religion. Life of Jesus Christ Jesus was born in Bethlehem to a spiritual Jewess Mary and a carpenter named Joseph. It is taught that Jesus was conceived by a miracle of the Holy Spirit (Religion Facts 2010). The Gospels do not have any narratives on the early life of Jesus Christ. The book of Luke goes on to explain the life of Christ as age 12. During this time in his life Jesus was found discussing religion in the temple to a rabbi about the torah. The answers that he gave to the rabbi he left many astonished. This was a turning point in Christ life; he was discovered to be the Son of God. At the age of 30 Jesus began his ministry. One of his first acts was when he was baptized by John the Baptist. John the Baptist was known as a captivating and alluring person. He called many to repent and baptized those that responded to his calling...

...Jesus & Mohammad Traci Focarino HUM/130 9/16/12 University of Phoenix Both Jesus and Mohammad are considered the leaders of their own religion. They were also both considered to be radicals. Their deaths impacted their religions and followers. They are still being studied and their word is still being followed. This paper will trace their lives historically, compare what impact their death had on their religion, describe how each individual was and is worshipped, and explain how their messages are being carried out in the world today. According to the Bible, the Angel Gabriel told Jesus’ mother Mary, that she was chosen to bear the Son of God. This came as a surprise to Mary because she was newly married to Joseph who was a carpenter, and still a virgin. This concept is known as the Immaculate Conception. Jesus was born in Bethlehem. This fulfilled the prophecies foretold in the Old Testament about the Messiah being born in the homeland of King David. There are no stories about the time Jesus was a child up until the age of twelve. The story goes that his parents left behind Jesus and when they found him, he was in a Temple. He amazed the rabbis by “discussing the Torah” and asking “did you not know that I must be in my Father’s house?” . His teenage years and twenties are also a mystery. At thirty he showed up to the...

...Jesus and Muhammad Student name HUM/130 Nicole Reale September 18, 2011 Jesus and Muhammad Jesus and the prophet Muhammad are two of the predominate figures that influence today’s modern religion. Both figures critics, they also have a large following of believers’. Both figure are the central focus of their respective religions. Both of these individual’s teaching have an impact on their religion’s and the secular world as well. Both Christianity and Islam are monotheistic and have several distinct similarities. Both individuals are well-documented historical figures as well. Jesus was born 6 B.C. (before Christ) in Bethlehem in a Roman province of Palestine to the Virgin Mary. An angel named Gabriel declared Jesus as the “Savior of Men”. Jesus led a sinless life that was admired by everyone and envy from the Jewish leaders. In a town called Galilean of Nazareth, Jesus worked as a carpenter. Jesus demonstrated his authority through his teachings, and his power through the production of many miracles. He did things such as walking on water, turning water into wine, and restoring life to the dead.

...Jesus vs. Mohammad “Compare and Contrast” Introduction The information contained in this document is to depict two highly religious idols, and how they influence many during their ages. Jesus was the center and founder of Christianity, while Mohammed was a great prophet of Islam. Christianity and Islam are the largest religions in the world. They account for over 2 billion of the world’s population. Christianity and Islam also share many things in common, but they differ in other aspects. Although, Jesus and Mohammed lived righteously by the principles that were created by them, they affected humanity like an echo in the past and present. This research is to compare and contrast the key elements of Jesus and Mohammed historically, respectively, and how their legacy is still being carried out in the world today (Wikipedia, 2008). (1) Trace the lives of Jesus and Mohammed historically The Life of Jesus Christ (**6** BC - **29-33** AD) Historians do not exactly know the birth date of Jesus Christ. It has been said his birth took place on or around December 25th 6 BC in the city of Jerusalem. This day is traditionally celebrated by Christians as the birthday of Jesus. Jesus was born unto a father Joseph, and a mother “The Virgin Mary. Other than shortly after his birth, little is known of the life of Jesus other than what is recorded in the “Four Gospels”. These events were written some fifty to eighty years after the death of Jesus. These Gospels are derived of an...

...“So, is there life after democracy?” -Arundhati Roy Arundhati Roy starts her collection of essays ”Listening to the grasshoppers” with a remarkable and intriguing question that makes us stick with her way of thinking and look forward to startling revelations throughout the book. To her the democracy that’s been lauded as the largest democracy of the world, is a hoax, a sham. She draws reference in the earlier part of the book to the tagline in one of the posters of a Kashmiri protestant stating ‘Democracy without Justice = Demon-Crazy’, skilfully setting the tone for the detailed description of the ‘cunning, Brahmanical, intricate, bureaucratic, file-bound and apply-through-proper-channels’ style of governance. “Right now we’re sipping from a poisoned chalice- a flawed democracy laced with religious facism. Pure arsenic” The raw description and writing by Roy is the blatant truth or at least her version of the truth of the failure of India’s democracy. She sounds the warning bugle of the rise of the so called Hindu nationalism that’s trying to cast Islam as our national enemy. The most important example that she puts forward to support her claims is the massacre of perhaps 2000 muslims in Gujarat in 2002, in which the state government was allegedly complicit. She provides a shocking analysis of the riots of Gujarat and the fact of it being orchestrated by Hindu nationalist stalwart, Mr. Narendra Modi. In three nifty articles, she cuts open all the questioning method the police...
