Warsaw Ghetto Wannsee Conference
1,117 words
The Holocaust is likely one of the most
misunderstood historical events of modern times.
There are those that underestimate the extent of
world knowledge about the German atrocities. There
are also those whom are ignorant of the way in
which the Jews reacted to their situation. The
incredible extent of incorrect information about
the Holocaust which people have been taught is a
severe problem that must be corrected immediately.
The only solution is the education of the masses.
It is imperative t...

Told Me Stories Mix Of Cultures Eyes

I can remember it like it was just yesterday. It
was the mid-eighties and I was just an
awe-stricken young eight-year-old as I accompanied
my aunt to Shannon Airport. She was the second of
my relations that was travelling to spend a summer
in Australia and I can still remember the look in
her eyes as we saw her off. To me, she exuded an
air of nervous anticipation, tinged with the
excitement of what was no doubt going to be one of
the most memorable summers of her young life. As
we entered throu...

Tells The Audience Choral Ode

... eon be put to death as a "symbol" of what
treason means. As his anger mounts Oedipus says
that Creon is "evil incarnate, " and should pay
for his treason with his life. Surprisingly, Creon
remains calm throughout this outburst. He doesn't
interrupt again to protest his innocence. His only
reaction is to say to the audience that Oedipus is
a "fool. " His self-control throws Oedipus'
irrational reaction into a bad light. Mercifully,
the heated argument is broken off when the Chorus

God Does Not Exist Exist In Reality
1,305 words
Saint Anselm's ontological argument seeks to
provide an a priori proof (proposition which can
be known or justified independent of experience)
of God's existence. However, Gaunilo, a
contemporary of Anselm and a fellow Catholic,
argued that Anselm's ontological argument is
invalid, because an argument of the same form
could have true premises and a false conclusion
therefore, he introduced perfect island argument
which is perfectly parallel to ontological
argument. In this paper, I will discuss ...

Kill Or Die March Of Folly Ideal
552 words
The song "Imagine" by John Lennon from the Beatles
is certainly one of the songs that affected the
youth in the 60 's and the early 70 's. It is
clear that the song is trying to present a certain
ideal about the world in the future- and ideal of
peace, harmony and no wars. It is hard to argue
with the song about the necessity of the things,
but it is very easy to revoke the possibility that
this ideal will come true. In this paragraph I
would like to talk about the ideal itself. The
ideal for su...

Moment Of Conception Morally Justified

abuse and the murder of one's child is illegal,
but does allow abortion. Regardless of whether it

between abortion and murder will be discussed and

most popular books on the topic of segregation in

denied rights guaranteed in our constitution, that
everyone is created equal. Griffin decides to dye
his skin black and cross over the color line to

At the Descartes Essay 1 At the beginning of
Meditation three, Descartes has made substantial
progress towards defeating skepticism. Using his
methods of Doubt and Analysis he has
systematically examined all his beliefs and set
aside those which he could call into doubt until
he reached three beliefs which he could not
possibly doubt. First, that the evil genius
seeking to deceive him could not deceive him into
thinking that he did not exist when in fact he did
exist. Second, that his essence is...

Hobbes thoughts. The paper will consist of the
strengths and weaknesses of Cartesian Dualism.
Cartesian Dualism claims the independent existence
of a non-physical realm and a physical realm.
Descartes believed in a nonphysical soul

operated body. He knew that the reality of the
body needed no proof, but the reality of the soul
did. He believed that there ...

Common Sense Infinite Series

Looks Can Be Deceiving Paradoxes are sometimes
composed of contradictory ideas presented
together, ultimately leading to an unworkable
situation. Paradoxes, however, are not simply
ambiguous questions. Paradoxes are the essence of
the inherent complexity of systems (Internet 1).
Each paradox must be analyzed and clearly
understood before it can be explained. Since
mathematics is, in a sense, a universal language,
certain paradoxes and contradictions have arisen
that have troubled mathematicians,...
