Membralite Ecologique Des Etres Dans La Theologie Chretienne Et Dans La Pensee Bantoue (Europaische Hochschulschriften / European University Studies / Publications Universitaires Europeenn, #908) (Europaeische Hochschulschriften / European University Studie, #908)
by Paulin Monga Wa Matanga
La problematique ecologique mondiale defie l'homme et son action. La destruction de l'environnement qui s'accentue laisse poser une question de fond, celle de savoir comment l'homme peut s'y prendre pour garantir sa vie presente et future, car les consequences nefastes qui decoulent de cette destruction se repercutent sur l'homme lui-meme et hypothequent son avenir. L'auteur propose a ce que l'homme se comprenne a nouveau, comme essentiellement un etre-membre, qui vit en interaction avec d'autre...
Legal scholars and authorities generally agree that the law should be obeyed and should apply equally to all those subject to it, without favour or discrimination. Yet it is possible to see that in any legal system there will be situations when strict application of the law will produce undesirable results, such as injustice or other consequences not intended by the law as framed.

Through history, Islam was the dominant religion and source of legitimation for ruling entities in diverse contexts where cultures and religions thrived in harmony.

As Muslims reconce...
