Abstract

This paper appraised the issues involved in human reproductive cloning and creationism from the standpoints of Raelian religion and African traditional belief. The methods adopted are descriptive and evaluative. The findings include the fact that human cloning is one of the religious tenets of Raelianism; and that African tradition and culture totally reject reproductive cloning on the ground of its unnaturalness. Finally, the paper from the African traditional paradigm concluded that human reproductive cloning is totally condemnable and should not be practiced on human beings on the ground of unnaturalness, distortion, negation, imperfection, and aberration.

It examines the theological significance of empathy and its impact on socio-welfare and evangelism within the community. By highlighting the importance of compassionate support, the study underscores how empathy can help alleviate the socio-economic and financial challenges faced by widows. Additionally, it aims to inspire church leaders and individuals to extend care to vulnerable widows while raising awareness of the broader implications of such acts of kindness.

Abstract

This article examines the moral dilemma of likely euthanasia practices in Urhoboland and uses the moral frameworks of prudential personalism, Ubuntuism, and the principles of nonmaleficence, beneficence, and autonomy to appraise the practices. The study employs historical and phenomenological approaches. It collected relevant data from community leaders, elders, and medical experts from five selected Urhobo kingdoms. The finding shows that euthanasia in all its forms is a practice that dehumanizes and destroys human dignity and does not promote African culture and humanism, even though some African communities still engage in euthanasia-like practices unknowingly. It also reveals that these behaviours are now declining considerably in most Urhobo and other African communities due to modernity, advanced healthcare systems, and sound religious teachings. It concludes that community and religious leaders should discourage fetish beliefs and traditions and promote the humanity of the vulnerable individuals in their communities.

Abstract

This paper examines the utilization of interactive religious art to disseminate moral teachings and foster a sense of social responsibility among student cultists in Nigerian higher educational institutions. It expands the current literature by examining art as a medium for moral reformation. It addresses a geographical deficiency in Nigerian higher educational institutions, specifically those governed by the Nigerian government. Through extant literature, observations, and interviews, this research employs a mixed-methods approach to evaluate the efficacy of interactive religious art in fostering moral behaviour among Nigerian student cultists. The study indicates that interactive religious art can significantly contribute to moral reforming among student cultists by offering a distinctive and compelling platform for reflections, dialogue, and transformation. It is recommended that future research should investigate the impact that interactive religious artwork has on moral regeneration among a wide range of demographics, such as cultists, students in secondary school, employees of the civil service, and younger people.
