This article is the result of my doctoral dissertation. In this work, I (hereafter: the writer) consider Aramesh Dustdar's main thesis "Emtenae Tafakor" and give my interpretation of it, "Emtenae Tafakor" is the main content of Dustdar's view on faith and reason in the epistemology of religion. In addition, the writer moves to theocracy and argues that Aramesh Dustdar could not provide attainable ideas and arguments against theocracy in the social and political philosophy. Straightforwardly, the aforementioned claim has been based (...) on a low level of proficiency of Aramesh Dustdar in social and political philosophy and the philosophy of law, and the writer will articulate this claim via some quotations from Aramesh Dustdar’s works and then criticize them.

This paper examines how post-colonial perspectives reshape the interpretation of gender and sexuality in Greco-Roman mythology, revealing enduring power dynamics that continue to influence contemporary society. Through an analysis of pivotal myths such as Pandora’s Box, Helen of Troy and Aphrodite, Andromeda, Lucretia, and Dido, the study demonstrates how classical narratives perpetuated patriarchal ideologies by marginalizing female agency and associating women with instability. Post-colonial readings further highlight parallels between these myths and colonial strategies of control, where the subjugation of women (...) and marginalized groups was justified through cultural narratives. By juxtaposing ancient and modern interpretations, this paper underscores the cyclical nature of gender-based oppression and emphasizes the role of mythology in shaping societal expectations and norms. The findings advocate for a critical reexamination of these narratives to challenge and deconstruct the power structures they continue to uphold. (shrink)

I argue against the queer adoption right of children and propose this contention via the Disrespectful Adoption Argument.

In 1685, in The Art of Discovery, Leibniz set down an extraordinary idea: "The only way to rectify our reasonings is to make them as tangible as those of the Mathematicians, so that we can find our error at a glance, and when there are disputes among persons, we can simply say: Let us calculate [calculemus], without further ado, to see who is right." Calculemus.
