Melting Pot External Factors
1,730 wordsHolism is the belief that moral characteristics of an individual are entirely determined by the social and cultural group of which they are members.

Hall Of Fame Pete Rose
673 wordsShould a man who has over 4256 hits be kept from the Hall of Fame because he bet on a few baseball games? The hits leader in major league baseball is banned from baseball, does that make any sense? Pete Rose deserves to be in the baseball hall of fame because of his actions on the field, not off. To not have the all time hits leader not in the hall is total insanity. My personal opinion as you can already tell is that I think Rose should be in Cooperstown, NY. I think Pete should be in the Hall ...
