Na tradição do pensamento ocidental, as diversas ciências que lidam com o ser humano – da filosofia à psicologia, da teologia à medicina – são herdeiras de um conceito dualista: matéria-espírito; corpo-alma; físico-psíquico. O modo de pensar yorubano, que chegou ao Brasil pelos escravos, e sobreviveu, sobretudo na religião do Candomblé, tem um conceito diverso deste dualista. O ser humano é multidimensional e constitui-se a partir da relação harmônica entre as diversas dimensões. Quais são estas dimensões e como elas concorrem para a composição de um conceito de ser humano serão o objeto das considerações desta contribuição.Abstract: In the tradition of Western thought, the various sciences that deal with human beings - from philosophy to psychology, from theology to medicine - are heirs of a dualistic concept: matter-spirit; body-soul; physical-psychic. The thinking of yoruba-people, who arrived in Brazil by slaves, and survived, especially in religion Candomble, have a different concept of this dualistic. The human being is multidimensional and is constituted by the relationship of various dimensions. What are these dimensions and how they contribute to the composition of a concept of human being will be the object of consideration of this contribution.Keywords: Human being. Candomblé.

The Image Of God

God did not create once and then put an end to it. Testimony from Scripture shows that God continuously establishes or creates new things. Humans can therefore expect to always see and experience new things in creation. With this pattern of reasoning, one can anticipate that the human being as image of God will continuously establish new things in history. Although nature has value, it does not have absolute value and therefore it can be synthesised responsibly. The thought that humans are stewards of God is no longer adequate to, theologically put into words, the relationship human beings have with nature. New biotechnological developments ask for different answers from Scripture. Several ethicists are of the opinion that the theological construction of humans and created co-creators can help found the relationship of the human being to nature. Humans developed as God’s image evolutionary. On the one hand, this means humans themselves are a product of nature. On the other hand, the fact that humans are the image of God is also an ethical call that humans, like God, have to develop and create new things throughout history. Synthetic biology can be evaluated as technology that is possible, because humans are the image of God. However, it should, without a doubt, be executed responsibly.Sintetiese biologie eties geëvalueer: Die skeppende God en medeskeppende mens. God het nie net eenmaal geskep en daar gestop nie. Uit Skrifgetuienisse kan afgelei word dat God voortdurend nuwe dinge tot stand bring of skep. Daarom kan die mens verwag om gedurig nuwe dinge in die skepping te sien en te beleef. Hiermee saam kan verwag word dat die mens as beeld van God voortdurend nuwe dinge in die geskiedenis tot stand sal bring. Alhoewel die natuur waarde het, het dit nie absolute waarde nie en kan dus verantwoordelik gesintetiseer word. Die gedagte dat die mens rentmeester van God is, is nie meer voldoende om die mens se verhouding tot die natuur teologies te verwoord nie. Nuwe biotegnologiese ontwikkelinge vra na ander antwoorde vanuit die Skrif. Verskeie etici is van mening dat die teologiese konstruksie van die mens as geskepte medeskepper kan help om die mens se verhouding tot die natuur te begrond. Die mens het deur ’n evolusionêre proses tot God se beeld ontwikkel. Aan die een kant beteken dit dat die mens self ’n produk van die natuur is. Aan die ander kant is beeldskap ook ’n etiese oproep dat die mens, soos God, nuwe dinge in die geskiedenis moet ontwikkel en skep. Sintetiese biologie kan gesien word as tegnologie wat moontlik is omdat die mens na die beeld van God geskape is. Sonder twyfel moet sintetiese biologie egter verantwoordelik beoefen word.

This article considers the state of human beings in a post-postmodern conditions and focuses on obversion as one version of posthuman reality in polyversion, which is lusciousness. Obversion is regarded as a logical and at the same time dynamic figure of dis-identity and non-presence. Trying to find out if a real human being is written leads one to consider the relationship of real and written reality and the possibility of posthuman writing. Posthuman writing becomes apparent in tracks, traces, scars and vestiges such an @ as a signifier of becoming t@iled. The vestiges of a human being are being investigated through the appeal to an actual post-postmodern conceptions such as speculative realism, speculative posthumanism, dark ecology, etc. In the post-postmodern context concepts such as tru(s)t/h, faith and kindness as a counterweight to the excessive postmodern quotation and theorization are being examined. Thus, a human being as a post-postscript is becoming a preface at the same time. This article explores such crucial postmodern issues as iterability, signature and others in a contingent context, in which an immanence of living itself becomes a writing in the postdigitality, post-Internet and post-media extent in relation to the realization of the disaster of technical or even mechanical as human. This research realizes on a showcase of post-postmodern architecture as an immanent spatiotemporal contingency, en-vironment of a human being. It shows how a minimalistic style in post-postmodern ethics and aesthetics correlates with obversive rocking in contrast to binary opposition logic. Thus, it realizes a movement from human to posthuman as scriptor, writing a postscript, and beyond to post-posthuman as postscriptor, writing a post-postscript as a human being, writing itself in its contingent immanence.

Islam, Christian and Jews are closely related religion rooted genealogically from the Father of the Prophet—Abraham. As also human beings, although born from the same ‘worm’, it does not mean appearing similarities. There are always fundamental differences among ‘the children’ made the relationship inharmonic, suspicious, and prejudice. These even become worse if they claim each other and give judgments into another. Islam and Christian both experience the same way. The relationship of the two seems ambivalent and fluctuative, since there are some principal theological differences. This is the urgency of understanding ‘the language of religion’ in an insider perspective to accomplish the more constructive relationship albeit the cause of difference. In this way, the religious followers could meet each other to carry out a noble duty of religion accomplishing a dignified human being through religion.

A educação tem sido uma constante preocupação no cenário mundial e brasileiro. Nela são colocadas as esperanças de construção de dias melhores, a partir da constituição de sociedades humanitárias, compostas de seres humanos solidários, emancipados, críticos e conscientes de seu papel enquanto cidadãos, considerando-se os estudos de Freire através da perspectiva sociocultural. A partir dessas considerações, o problema que moveu esta pesquisa foi a relação entre a abordagem sociocultural e o estabelecimento de utopias que se encontram contempladas no Projeto Pedagógico do Curso de Licenciatura Educação Física da Faculdade La Salle de Lucas do Rio Verde. A partir do objetivo geral, foram analisados os seguintes aspectos: as estruturas fundamentais do ser humano nos aspectos somáticos, psíquicos e espirituais; as relações fundamentais do ser humano: relação de objetividade com o mundo, a relação de intersubjetividade com o outro, a relação de transcendência com o absoluto e as potencialidades do ser humano, incluindo afeto, inteligência e vontade. Foi realizada pesquisa qualitativa descritiva e documental, aplicada a partir do método hipotético dedutivo. Com base nos autores estudados consideramos que as estruturas fundamentais do ser humano encontram-se contempladas no Projeto Pedagógico do Curso de Licenciatura Educação Física da Faculdade La Salle de Lucas do Rio Verde – MT.Palavras-chave: Abordagem sociocultural. Utopia. Educação.The dynamics of educational relations and the construction of utopias in the Pedagogical Project: the transcendence with the other and the absoluteAbstractEducation has been a constant concern in the world and Brazilian scenario. In it, the hopes of constructing better days are set out, starting with the constitution of humanitarian societies, composed of human beings who are supportive, emancipated, critical and aware of their role as citizens, considering Freire's studies from a sociocultural perspective. From these considerations, the problem that moved this research was the relationship between the sociocultural approach and the establishment of utopias that are contemplated in the Pedagogical Project of the Undergraduate Course in Physical Education from Faculdade La Salle de Lucas do Rio Verde. From those general objectives, the following aspects were analyzed: the fundamental structures of the human being in the somatic, psychic and spiritual aspects; the fundamental relationships of the human being: relationship of objectivity with the world, the relation of intersubjectivity with the other, the relationship of transcendence with the absolute and the potentialities of the human being, including affection, intelligence and will. A descriptive and documental qualitative research was applied, using the hypothetical deductive method. Based on the authors studied, we consider that the fundamental structures of the human being are contemplated in the Pedagogical Project of the Undergraduate Course in Physical Education from Faculdade La Salle de Lucas do Rio Verde.Keywords: Sociocultural approach.

AbstractThe following work features elements to ponder and an in-depth explanation taken on the Anca Vasiliu’s study about the possibilities and ways of thinking of God by a rational entity, such as the human being. This is an ever relevant topic that, however, takes place in relation to Platonic authors and texts, especially in Late Antiquity. The common thread is that the human being is a God’s creature who resembles him and who is image of. Nevertheless, this also applies within the Christian Trinity according to which, not without problems, the Son is the image of the Father. Lastly, also the relationship of the Spirit with the Father and the Son, always within the Trinity, can be considered as a relationship of similarity, but again not without critical issues between the similarity of attributes, on the one hand, and the identity of nature, on the other.

Simple Definition

In light of contemporary accounts of the Anthropocene, this chapter re-figures the relationship between human being and nature, such that nature is not the dialectical antithesis to human being and our reflexivity with nature is not easily marginalized. It proposes a simple definition for this relationship: human beings are planetary creatures in deep time. This definition indicates how the Anthropocene disorients us both in terms of the spatial (i.e., planetary) and temporal (i.e., deep time) boundedness of our subjectivity. Building on supporting ideas—‘planetarity’ and a ‘Sapiezoic’ eon—that help us imagine the implications of the Anthropocene’s disorientation of our subjectivity, this chapter articulates the potential symbolic power of the Anthropocene to imagine human beings as intra-active agents.

Chapter 6 turns to Fénelon’s theology, focusing on his treatment of hope and its significance for his political philosophy. It argues that he regarded hope not just as a key theological virtue, but also as a key virtue of political rulers and political reformers. Its discussion of the political implications of Fénelon’s theology proceeds in three parts. It first examines the role of hope in Telemachus. It then turns to the treatment of hope in Fénelon’s theology, focusing on three particular discussions: the place of hope in love, the relationship of hope to self-interest, and the place of hope in prayer. The final section turns to two aspects of Fénelon’s theology beyond hope which also have significant implications for his political philosophy: his understanding of the relationship of human being to divine being, and his arguments for the existence of God and their implications for universal order.
