Pope John Paul II
made a historic apology to several groups oppressed by the church since its inquisition started. The late pontiff’s apology to women as a group was as a
result of the obnoxious and oppressive denial of women’s human right by the
Church and the greater society because of the wrong interpretation of the “submission”
clause in the Bi...

Il s'agit, a partir de l'experience vecue du lanagage, d'elaborer une phenomenologie du langage fondee sur le terme okwu (logos)

... In his own view, Obiechina (1988) stated that the traditional people believed that death was only a transition -a means of passing from the world of man to that of the spirit world. Chukwuelobe (1998) reported that death is very important in Igbo life as it marks new birth and embodies transition to the ancestral spirituality of the Igbo. Menkiti described death as a necessary rite of passage for entry into the folk of Igbo ancestors: ...
... Although a cross-cultural dialogue does not necessarily presuppose that two different thinkers -Nietzsche and Ramose -share the same thought or hold a common view on a specific philosophical issue, it clearly shows that there should be a basis upon which they establish their exchange (cf. Ojimba & Agada, 2020;Chukwuelobe, 2012). The WTP and Ubuntu ontology provide such a basis for Nietzsche and Ramose to enter into a crosscultural conversation. ...
... However, I shall beam my critical radar more on Matthew Chukwuelobe and Richard Onwuanibe, who have not only done remarkable work on the theme, but also manifest the Heideggerian "overtone" this article challenges. For instance, regarding the suggestion, as found in Chukwuelobe (2014), that Igbo comportment towards death typifies Heidegger's idea of "anticipation", I argue to the contrary that the cluster of dispositions and practices that Chukwuelobe regards as "anticipation" (presumably in the Heideggerian sense) is what Heidegger would indeed disavow as symptoms of "everyday", inauthentic comportment towards death. Also, certain twists in the Igbo notions of ancestorship, the belief in ilo-uwa, and 1 ...
... There has been gender inequality in Christianity since time immemorial. In fact, the current study has shown that gender inequality is as old as biblical history (Casimir, Chukwuelobe and Ugwu 2014). Accordingly, gender is a sociocultural, political and economic construct developed by society that defines the roles, responsibilities and general societal expectations of both men and women (Casimir, Chukwuelobe and Ugwu 2014). ...

... In other words, a king is never wrong. In the Igbo experience, therefore the language of proverb is greatly esteemed such that a speaker who could use effectively and had a good command of proverbs was respected by his fellows and was often a leader in the community (Chukwuelobe 1995, Pp 26) [4] . This is why my position in this paper is that, the African who is skillful in the use of proverbs is a master of the logic of his thought and hence logical in the interpretation of his reality. ...
