Doctors And Hospitals Voluntary Euthanasia
1,240 words
... se. Today our medical hardware is so
sophisticated that the period of suffering can be
extended beyond the limit of human endurance.
What's the point of allowing someone a few more
months or days or hours of so-called life when
death is inevitable? There's no point. In fact,
it's downright inhumane. When someone under such
conditions asks to be allowed to die, it's far
more humane to honor that request than to deny it.
There is no way we are going to come to grips with
this problem until we ...

Book V Return Home

NAUSICAA; HOMER THE ODYSSEY BOOK VI INTRODUCTION A
close look at book V 1 and others in Homers
Odyssey may lead us to this observation. Far be it
from one to lay blame at the door of a Goddess but
as far as Nausicaa is concerned surely Athena did
contribute by leading the poor girl on to believe
that Odysseus was The One, she was to marry. This
will be taken into account as we look in more
depth at the poem. Virgil acquaints us with
similar facts in his book The Ahead whose content

a word synonymous with peace, good will, brotherly
love, acceptance and forgiveness. It is a virtue
that is essential in a world filled with racial
and religious discrimination. But at the same time
tolerance, or, more specifically, the modern,
politically correct definition of tolerance, holds
some very dangerous pitfalls which, if our
government, and we, as a people are not careful
of, could be crippling to the individualism, and

Singer and Helga Kuhse, who embrace such
arbitrariness, do so without any evident concern
for the subversion of the foundations of justice

of voluntary euthanasia would also encourage the

English Language Learners Bilingual Education
1,105 words
The controversial practice of bilingual education
has been under fire the last few years from
opposition such as English First, assimilation
activists, and a handful of angry Latino parents.
The main argument delivered by these groups is
that bilingual education has failed, and the
complaints are being ignored and overlooked by
school officials. These bilingual, bright children
are learning basic skills in their native language
before adding English. But for many opponents,
that transition just ...

low-level. They are primitive, Burnyeat tells us,
because they do not invariably or immediately lose
efficacy in the face of contrary considerations.
They are, in short, "pockets" of thought that
remain relatively unaffected by our overall view
of things. Thus, while appetite and instinct may
be evaluations, they do not signify logical or

Martin Luther King Affirmative Action

Every person in this room will take or has taken
the Scholastic Aptitude Test, or SAT. This test is
basically used to determine who will succeed in
college and who wont. Sounds simple doesnt it?
Because each person takes a variation of the same
test, the scores can help separate students with
almost equal credentials. So you would figure that
if you were competing with someone for acceptance
to a college and you received a 1300 and the other
person, with equal qualifications, received a
1200, yo...

Jane Family Years

The most meaningful theme of this story is that
the need to belong is crucial to achieve true
happiness. From the very beginning, it is obvious
that all Jane wants is to be loved and accepted by
her family; or anyone for that matter. The abuse
she suffered in her childhood wounded her spirit
and her self-esteem for many years. She was
treated like an enemy in her own house; shunned
and punished at every opportunity by her cruel
relatives. As a child, Jane endured the
punishment; alone, and unlov...
