Callarman’s argument is that Chris McCandless made a lot of mistakes because he was arrogant and that he had no business going into Alaska with his Romantic silliness and he says that he was just crazy. I disagree with Callarman’s argument because I think that Chris McCandless (Alexander Supertramp) was not arrogant I think that he just wanted to learn new things. I also disagree because I think that Chris did have a reason to go to Alaska or else he would not have done it even if it just to go because he likes nature, and I don’t think that he was crazy at the beginning but I agree that he did start to get crazy when he was stuck in the wild on the bus. I don’t think that Chris is arrogant I think that he is just a guy who wants to learn new things about nature and just the world in general.
His plan would generate more tourism for the region and for the Grand
Collier appears to have good intentions when she argues her case for changing the juvenile system; however, her argument seems to be limited to her own experiences and a handful of statistics to support her cause. Collier’s argument seems to balance on the belief that juvenile criminals will be deterred by harsher punishment, a notion that has been shown not to be true. When provided with the appropriate measures, juveniles have been shown to avoid recidivism at a rate that is significantly higher than juveniles sentenced through adult court. Collier is right when she argues for updating the juvenile justice system; however, her solution is far from correct when one considers the moral implications of sentencing, young, still developing minds
Fenno traveled with each of them in their districts, as he has done with many others (though it all began with Conable in 1964). The questions Fenno always poses are: What’s he like? What’s she like? How does each member relate to his/her constituency? And how does the member balance life on Capitol Hill and in the district?
I chose Prompt #1 and personally I find Callarman 's argument very valid. I agree with him completely in the sense that it was not a good idea for McCandless to leave the safe environment that his parents created for him by paying for his college education making it easy for him to fall into a career and get his life started. It was very selfish of him to have his parents pay for his education then just throw it away like it was nothing. McCandless had a good idea of going out and finding himself but he should have executed it differently. I think that he wasn’t trying to be arrogant but at the beginning he was without realizing it.
Norcross believe that one should not eat meat that is raised in a factory. He uses an argument about torturing puppies and eating their brains. Although his argument about Fred and his extreme cruelty to feel the sensation of eating chocolate is cruel, it puts one in a state of mind to pay close attention to his point. What is his point? Eating animals that are raised in factories are just is cruel as torturing puppies for one’s own pleasure.
Hope Solo, a superior goalie in the women 's soccer league. Many look up to her as a role model, an international icon and now an athlete being accused of domestic violence. In america domestic violence is a problem that is currently being addressed on some of the biggest stages we have to offer. Athletes being icons to not only the media but citizens all around the world every action they take is displayed everywhere. On June 21st, 2014 Hope solo was arrested on two accounts of domestic violence.
I enjoyed the topic of the Annotation 1 worksheet, because I personally disagreed with the stance of the author. The Article argues that disallowing welfare users to spend their food stamp money on sugary drinks would allow users to lead healthier lives, but I do not think that the situation is that black and white. According to the article, “They would still receive every penny of support they now get, meaning they would have as much, if not more, to spend on nutritious food” (Farley). I believe that health can be a social construct, and what might be healthy to one person might not be healthy to another, and banning sugary drinks, does not mean that welfare users will go further in the act and make healthier decisions about everything purchased.
Dobson’s words can resonate with young and older Christians. The politically correct, liberals, or the Christian left may perceive his words to be ungracious and condemning; whereas, the word of God clearly dictates acts that are sinful and should not be tolerated (Galatians 5: 19-21). Dobson challenges Christians to stand up as Jesus did since truth by nature is intolerant of falsehood. If being intolerant means agreeing with condemning abhorrent behavior as God mandates in the scriptures (e.g., homosexuality, abortion, sexual perversion), then yes, it is okay to be intolerant. Tolerance is not encouraged in the Bible considering God is not tolerant; ergo, tolerance in itself is not loving, since tolerance denies justice (Kruger, 2013).
It is extremely ironic that in his writings, Zhuangzi often employs language and logical argument to undermine the usefulness of language and logical argument. Setting aside the problem of this possible inconsistency, here I will explain Zhuangzi’s argument regarding truth and human capacity–or lack thereof–to understand it. Zhuangzi begins by describing a familiar situation: You and I have opposing views on a topic and argue to figure out who is right and who is wrong. Suppose one of us “wins” the debate–that is to say, one of us makes an argument to which the other can give no satisfactory response. Now, Zhuangzi poses the rhetorical question: Is the winner necessarily right and the loser necessarily wrong?
Jimmy Smith grabs for the Coke zero sugar and the Doritos reduced fat chips thinking that they are a good option. After that Jimmy sits down on his Superhero Bob blanket and watches The Galaxy Rangers. You may think that Jimmy Smith is a couch potato but really he is just another victim of advertising across the nation. Companies are becoming savage monsters tearing through our children's future just to get money by putting up advertisements; advertisements are at school, on buses, in the stores, and on television. There are huge problems related to juveniles viewing advertisements almost the whole day such as, youth are getting more and more health problems because of advertisers, kids and families are spending so much money for fundraisers to get cheap toys and they do not have money for college, plus young children are losing imagination and interest in games and outdoor
Article Argument Analysis When Failing Equals Success by Stuart Firestein, when it comes to the issue of failing in life, most agree that failing is very bad, but Firestien doesn 't think that it is not bad at all. Where this agreement ends is on the question of if failing is really science 's fault? The general argument made by those in favor of Firestien is that no it 's not science’s fault of you failing and it 's part of science and if there wasn 't failures then there wouldn 't be any great discoveries.
Suppose further that the putative dog is actually a robot dog so perfect that it could not be distinguished from an actual dog by vision alone. James does not know that such robot dogs exist; a Japanese toy manufacturer has only recently developed them, and what James sees is a prototype that is used for testing the public's response. Given these assumptions, (5) is of course false. But suppose further that just a few feet away from the robot dog, there is a real dog, concealed from James's view. Given this further assumption, James's belief in (5) is true.
10.1 Reader response is what it means to that person. This view allows the person to ignore, overlook what the other intent was at the time of writing. Therefore, the ability to twist a text to one’s own bias is all but guaranteed to happen. Authorial intent is a application that views the text, story through the lens of the author. This gets to the point of what the author wants to communicate with the reader and not vis-versa.
My diverse life experiences have helped me realize that I possess the determination, resilience, mental strength and compassion to succeed as a valuable asset to a medical team. As an enthusiastic 10 year old, I started working as a scout and came in contact with likeminded young children from different regions of India- building camps, hiking, sharing knowledge, learning first aid principles and simulating them in virtual emergency situations. This was my first experience as a “health care provider” which was a stepping stone for my journey towards medicine. During those camps, I started imagining how gratifying it would be to treat real patients. Being among the top 0.1% students of the country in biology in 12th standard further strengthened
