Early Modern Theories
2013
The notion of consciousness was used by early modern philosophers in various ways. In dualist ontologies, the nature of thought was often characterised with the help of consciousness: while matter was understood as extended in space, thought was taken to be that which is accompanied by consciousness. Whether the mind always thinks and whether mental activity in its entirety is conscious were among the questions which addressed the relation between thought and consciousness. The possibility of unconscious thought was generally overlooked. For example, Locke rejected the Cartesian tenet that we always think by appealing to particular phenomena which suggest that we do not always think, such a…
“This is Just a Prototype”: How Ethics Are Ignored in Software Startup-Like Environments
2020
Artificial Intelligence (AI) solutions are becoming increasingly common in software development endeavors, and consequently exert a growing societal influence as well. Due to their unique nature, AI based systems influence a wide range of stakeholders with or without their consent, and thus the development of these systems necessitates a higher degree of ethical consideration than is currently carried out in most cases. Various practical examples of AI failures have also highlighted this need. However, there is only limited research on methods and tools for implementing AI ethics in software development, and we currently have little knowledge of the state of practice. In this study, we expl…

Sprawa operacyjnego sprawdzenia kryptonim „Zakonnik”. inwigilacja ks. Henryka Surmy przez Służbę Bezpieczeństwa w latach 1974-1977
2018
Celem opracowania jest ukazanie na przykładzie jednego z zakonników sposobu postępowania Służby Bezpieczeństwa wobec duchownych, którzy znaleźli się w spektrum zainteresowania tej instytucji, z uwagi na podejrzenie prowadzenia „antypaństwowej” działalności. Tego rodzaju sprawy operacyjnego sprawdzenia zakładane były przez Służbę Bezpieczeństwa PRL bardzo często i miały na celu sprawdzenie doniesień o prowadzeniu przez duchownych działalności uznawanej przez władze komunistyczne za wrogą ustrojowi PRL. Ks. Henryk Surma, nie godząc się na komunistyczne ograniczenia praw człowieka, ani na dążenia władz PRL zmierzające do marginalizacji Kościoła, próbował na własną rękę pozyskać środki na remon…

Med tente lys inn i varmen. Lucia-tog i norske skoler og barnehager
2019
Source at http://ojs.novus.no/index.php/DIN/article/view/1721/1703. Hovedhensikten med denne artikkelen er å løfte frem Lucia-togene i norske skoler og barnehager som et eksempel på hvordan forståelse av religion og tradisjon forhandles i møte med en stadig mer kompleks og mangfoldig barne- og foreldregruppe. Hva er det som faktisk skjer, og hvordan kan vi forstå ritualene som knyttes til Luciadagen i lys av det vi vet om religiøs endring, både i skolen og i det norske samfunn mer generelt? Med utgangspunkt i teori om religiøse prosesjoner, ritualers materialitet og multimodalitet tar artikkelen sikte på å få frem noen så langt uutforskede sider ved Lucia-ritualenes plass og rolle i skole o…
Har vi for stor tro på religiøse lederes mulighet til å bygge fred?
2022
Author's accepted manuscript Mange av verdens voldelige konflikter har religiøse dimensjoner. Religiøse toppledere går ofte inn i disse konfliktsituasjonene for å forsøke å redusere volden mellom religiøse grupper, for å forebygge nye voldsutbrudd og for å støtte pågående fredsprosesser.1 Men har slike prosjekter god nok effekt? Skaper de fred?
The Post-2002 Fragments' Dependency on Modern Editions of the Hebrew Bible
2020
This article presents the results of a systematic analysis of 27 unprovenanced post-2002 'Dead Sea Scrolls' fragments, the goal of which has been to test a hypothesis of textual correspondence between fragments and modern editions of the Hebrew Bible. The hypothesis is twofold: (1) There is a line-to-line layout correspondence between some fragments and modern editions of the Hebrew Bible; (2) readings suggested in the critical apparatus by the editors of the modern editions often appear to have been imported onto the fragments. The analysis confirms that six of ten fragments which were known to be modern forgeries at the time this analysis was conducted, as well as five of the remaining se…
