Abstract

This systematic review explores the intersection of Max Planck's assertion that "matter is a derivative of consciousness" with key concepts in Christian theology, particularly creation, existence, and the imago Dei. The study aims to investigate how Planck's views align with and enrich theological doctrines, fostering dialogue between science and faith. The objective is to analyze interdisciplinary literature to uncover complementary understandings of the cosmos' origin and nature, drawing from scientific insights and Christian theological frameworks. A qualitative methodology is employed, comprising a systematic analysis of scholarly articles, theological texts, and scientific literature that address consciousness, metaphysics, and divine creation. The findings reveal significant alignment between Planck's concept of consciousness as foundational to matter and Christian beliefs about God’s creative agency and humans as bearers of the imago Dei. This synthesis enhances comprehension of the cosmos as a creation sustained by an underlying consciousness, aligning with the theological principle of divine intentionality. In conclusion, this review highlights the potential for meaningful dialogue between scientific and theological perspectives, offering a unified understanding of existence that bridges the material and metaphysical realms.

Abstract

This interdisciplinary study explores the evolution of the human brain by integrating perspectives from anthropology, neuroscience, evolutionary biology, and technology studies. It delves into the factors driving brain expansion over time, including social complexity, dietary transitions, tool use, and the development of language. By synthesizing primary and secondary data, the research highlights the interplay between cognitive development and environmental pressures, showcasing how human neural architecture was shaped by adaptive responses to changing conditions. The findings reveal that evolutionary adaptations not only influenced brain size and structure but also laid the groundwork for cognitive resilience, particularly in the face of aging and modern technological advancements. This study underscores the profound impact of social and environmental challenges on brain evolution and its ongoing plasticity. Furthermore, it addresses critical questions about how rapid technological shifts are shaping cognitive functions and neural pathways today. By examining the past, present, and future trajectories of the human brain, this research provides a comprehensive framework for understanding its evolutionary processes and offers insights into navigating the challenges of an increasingly complex and technology-driven world.

Abstract

Genetic technology, particularly CRISPR-Cas9, has transformed the paradigm of treating genetic diseases by offering new hope for more effective and precise therapies. However, this advancement also presents significant ethical and intellectual property rights (IPR) challenges. This article explores the impact of patents on the development and accessibility of genetic therapy, as well as the ethical issues arising from human genetic modification, especially at the germline level. Using a qualitative analytical approach that combines literature reviews and case studies, the article examines patent disputes that have emerged in the development of CRISPR and how applied patent policies can exacerbate inequities in access to critically needed medical therapies. Furthermore, the article discusses ethical concerns regarding the misuse of genetic technology and its potential impact on future generations. In conclusion, the article proposes the need for more inclusive and balanced policies that prioritize both innovation and accessibility, as well as strict regulations to ensure the safe and ethical application of genetic technology, while considering broader social and cultural impacts.
