Christian Science Monitor Forty Eight
1,046 words
During the twentieth century, premarital sex has
become an important issue. Sexual abstinence was
the normal society lifestyle until the late 1950
s. Most men and women would not have ever slept
with another person out of wedlock. While this
sexual abstinence lifestyle was in effect, a
mentality of independence struck the adolescence
of the United States. They felt as though they
must engage in sexual activity, just to defy
society's view of what was morally right. The
reason sexual abstinence i...

Slavery And The Founding Fathers
419 words
When the issue of slavery and the Founding
Father's arise, it is clear that despite some of
their noble actions, the Founding Fathers were
indeed hypocritical to true American ideals in
both action and in thought. Among the Founding
Fathers, Thomas Jefferson's disposition on slavery
was ambiguous as he contradicted himself many
times on an issue that affected America for
hundreds of years. Not only did he show hypocrisy,
but also a weakness as a politician in boldly
expressing his views and acti...

Plan Of Action Moral Dilemmas
856 words
1. ) By shaping our analytical skills, we can
become more independent in our thinking and less
susceptible to world views that foster
narrow-mindedness (pg. 37). The thinking process
can be broken down into three levels; which are
experience, interpretation, and analysis. The
levels are not clear-cut; they overlap and
interact with one another. Experience, the first
level of thinking, goes beyond the five senses. We
notice: specific events occurring, different
feelings within ourselves, and view...

a society which would fulfill the ideals of what
would become a part of the American character. He

a hierarchical society. He also was aware that a
society which was primarily production oriented,
