Censored Ing Second Stanza
1,280 words
This Be the Verse by Philip Larkin They censored
you up, your mum and dad. They may not mean to,
but they do. They fill you with the faults they
had And add some extra, just for you. But they
were censored ed up in their turn By fools in
old-style hats and coats, Who half the time were
sloppy-stern And half at one another's throats. It
deepens like a coastal shelf. And don't have any
kids yourself. Lately, I have read a good deal of
poems by Philip Larkin, and one unifying factor
that I have not...

Brave New World True Happiness
815 words
In all civilizations there are elements which
undergo changes over long periods of time as well
as innovation. In Brave New World by Arduous
Huxley, one sees a satirical view of the human
race six hundred years A. F. (after Ford). Using
three main characters, Lenina, Bernard, and John
the author ridicules the modern day attitudes
toward death, relationships between the sexes, and
child rearing. Through this sci-fi satire one can
see the true effects of a utopia and all the human
race would have ...

Nicomachean Ethics Mother Theresa
1,911 words
In Nicomachean Ethics, Aristotle starts by
explaining why people do what they do. Every
action is the means to a greater end. Each end in
turn can be seen as a means to an even greater
end. A man makes horse shoes, the means, so he can
shoe his horse, the end. He shoes his horse, the
means, so he can ride into town, the end. So it
goes until the ultimate end is reached, happiness.
He is careful to explain that not all of these
acts are good and just, saying we must examine
them. To fall short of...

Choice And Control Human Race One
303 words
The word choice is used frequently in todays
society. Many people confuse choice and control.
How much power does one actually have? Can one
choose what will happen at work? Or does life
control what will occur? This question has
befuddled the human race from the beginning of
time. One of mans oldest practices is incorporated
with these two ideas. This practice is religion.
It seems as if the human race was created on this
planet to ask questions. One of the biggest
questions to this day is the ...

Using Language Reform To Change Gender Attitudes
1,151 words
If language mirrors the world, the generic use of
masculine pronouns and other male-biased use of
language in English would reflect a traditionally
male-orientated view of the world, in which case
it is interpreted as reinforcing the low status of
women in the society (Crystal 368: 1997). To
please prescriptivist's and feminists, Cheshire
and Prentice endeavoured to argue that language
reforms could change peoples attitude towards
sexual, and social equality. This is based upon an
axiom that if ...

Handmaids Tale Human Race
1,236 words
Human beings are emotional creatures. Their
feelings steer them in one direction or the next,
and greatly determine who they are, and what they
do. It is the human environment that triggers
these feelings, and these feelings that in turn
influence the human environment. They can be
either positive or negative in nature, and are
central to society and government. Since the
government controls a great deal of what we are
exposed to, they can control our emotions to some
extent. Someone living in a...

Hunter Gatherers Human Race
618 words
Cities: Good or Bad The invention and rise of the
city was both the best and the worst the human
race has ever done. There are two opinions on the
subject and I believe both are valid. In one
corner people say that cities ruined man s already
perfect way of life. They believe cities led to
many flaws we have in society today and that
humans would be better off without them. On the
other hand, some people believe that cities are
the best thing that could have happened to our
planet. They say that...

Human Cloning Human Race

Currently with technology advancing rapidly in

moral question is on the minds of almost every

The Lord of the Flies: Themes The world had
witnessed the atrocities of World War II and began
to examine the defects of their social ethics.
Mans purity and innocence was gone. Mans ability
to remain civilized was faltering. This change of
attitude was extremely evident in the literature
of the age. Writers, who through the use of clever
symbolism, mocked the tragedy of mans fate. One
such writer was William Golding. An author who has
seen the destruction of war and despises its
inevitable retu...

Big Bang Theory Life On Earth

Creation vs. Evolution: A Different Route to the

was created has been an ongoing battle for many
years. Who really knows if some supreme being
created the universe, or if it was the end result
of a massive explosion from a single atom?
Creation, as defined by Websters Ninth New
Collegiate Dictionary, is the act of bringing the
world into ordered existence (Websters, 304). This
seems to imply an immediate action, where the

Four Hundred Years Radio Waves
782 words
At the turn of the century, it was apparent that
we, the human race, could no longer continue at
the rate we were going. At several billion people,
we were rapidly multiplying at an exponential
rate. Scientists declared an international
emergency because of drastic depletion of natural
resources. It became obvious that in a few decades
the continuation of the human way of life would be
impossible if we did not find a solution to our
problem. We needed more space for our species, and
something wi...

Jean Jacques Rousseau Law Of Nature

society. This society consists of many states that
govern their people by allowing them to go about
their daily activities and providing them services
without a large amount of chaos interfering in
their lives Human beings usually do not venture
out of their caves (or the modern counterpart)
unless there is a reasonable probability that they
can return safely. (Low 038; Ginsberg, 12)

Cultural Evolution Cross Cultural

In the middle of this century, both biological and
cultural anthropology experiences a major change
in theory. In biological anthropology, biological
anthropologists adopted an approach which focused
on the gene. They saw the human evolution as the
process of genetic adaptation to the environment.
In the mean time, there were also cultural
analogies to evolution. Cultural evolution also
followed a process of adaptation. In the field of
anthropology, a very important theory is that of

under every cloak, every item of clothing, and all
makeup lies a body. Under the skin of a body lies
a soul, and a mind of thoughts. Reaching further
we search for where the thoughts were born. As an
embryo we are brought into this world, and raised
by our creators. From them we are taught life.
Depending on our parents or whoever is raising us
we become a person, with thoughts, feelings,
emotions, and ideas. Looking deeper it becomes
