It has generated many debates around political, religious, socio-cultural as well as medical domains. This study sought to contribute to debates on the issue by examining the views of students in a Ghanaian public University. The main objectives of the study were to ascertain student’s level of awareness of homosexuality, analyze their perceptions and gauge their degree of tolerance of the practice. An exploratory design was employed for the study. A sample of 200 undergraduate students of the University for Development studies were selected with a multistage sample procedure. Data was collected with the aid of a structured questionnaire. The main findings of the study were that the levels of awareness among students were very high, their perceptions largely negative; so was their level of tolerance. Generally students found the practice abominable, illegal and intolerable. The study concluded that students’ perceptions go a long way in shaping public discourse and influence the general attitude of the larger population toward homosexuality. As such, great care should be taken to ensure that homophobic tendencies do not result into a national security crisis. Key recommendations are that state authorities must ensure that the law criminalizing homosexuality must be clearly articulated. Also, a national dialogue should be embarked upon with the view to taking a common, humane and culturally acceptable position on the practice of homosexuality, mindful of cultural, religious as well as human rights considerations.

The body mass index of an individual is always considered in relation to a person’s age, sex and height. The physical appearance of an individual can be described by an onlooker as fat or slim and the interest of this work is to find out how body mass can affect health and ageing, knowing that body weight can mean different things to different persons based on the environment and cultural settings. This is a descriptive study and its source of data is derived from primary and secondary sources and literature from outside Nigeria serve as means of validating this work; and six hundred persons were sampled using the probability sample technique. The framework of this study is the life course approach in that, from birth to death, the human body undergoes changes and the observed changes are imperative. This work proposes that the more fat or bulkier a person is, the faster he ages and the more the associated health challenges. This work finds out that, several forces affect body mass (weight) and the amount of body mass directly affects health and the health status determines or affects ageing. Albeit, the study recommends that though certain factors that affect ageing are genetically determined, individuals should deliberately resolve to maintain healthy weight through the choice of healthy living. That is the life style of a people when modified through available knowledge; persons will attain quality health and by extension age gracefully.","PeriodicalId":239220,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sociological Research","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131893819","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since 1917 and after the Russian Revolution, Marxism transformed its power from theory into practice and until the late 1980s, when the Soviet Marxist regime crumbled, his thought process was continued. It was the shadow of Marxism on religious enlightenment in Iran either (religious enlightenment in Iran as well affected by Marxism); and doctor Ali Shariati as one of the most important religious intellectuals before the revolution in Iran, could not stay away from the dominance over global thinking in his works. But after the demise of Marxism, liberalism developed his constituents around the world more than ever by getting its authority back; meantime, this study analyses the views of Dr. Soroush, alongside with some parameters attempted to determine correlation between his thoughts and ideas that have emerged as the dominant world. So, the question of the present paper will be posed in this way: To what extent religious intellectual, according to the comments from doctor Shariati and doctor Soroush, has been affected by the global dominant thinking? The hypothesis of this article is how global dominant thinking at their time has influenced these two theorists analyzed in two different times.
