Is online learning working for DCU students?
Since we have all now had the chance to experience online learning, we may have discovered that it either works well or not at all.



The beliefs of Islam
Allah is God and is viewed as both the creator and the restorer of the world. The word of Allah is known through the sacred test which is the Qur’an, which is the equivalent to the Bible for Christians. Allah delivered the scriptures to Muhammad, his messenger and Muhammad is believed to be the last of the prophets (Adam, Abraham, Moses, Noah, Solomon, Jesus).

Facebook friends to the rescue
Despite more and more people leaving Facebook for newer apps such as Instagram and Twitter, Facebook holds one important feature – the ability to create groups.

The controversy of the Church of Scientology and where it is now
Scientology was invented by L. Ron Hubbard in 1952 and according to The Church of Scientology’s official Irish website, it is “ a religion that offers a precise path leading to a complete and certain understanding of one’s true spiritual nature and one’s relationship to self, family, groups, Mankind, all life forms, the material universe, the spiritual universe and the supreme being.”






Emo never died – The subculture making a comeback
You might recall a phase that people went through where their fringes covered their eyes, eyes were caked in dark black eyeliner and they wore fingerless gloves everywhere they went. That was what we called the emo phase or subculture. Emo fashion is associated with skinny jeans, studded or sometimes spiked belts and converse.


Wicca: Modern day witchcraft, religion or hobby?
Wicca is very different from other religions as there is no one being or Gods to worship and no holy book unlike the Bible and the Qu’ran. This website also states that “some Wiccans have a pantheistic view of the world, meaning they believe that the same divine source is present in all of nature, while others are more polytheistic, incorporating one or more additional deities from ancient religions into their practice along with the Goddess and God.”
