In modern day Latin America people struggle for even the most basic of human needs such as water, sanitation, and food. Governments in many countries do little to help lift the people out of poverty and give way to a higher quality of life for the poor while letting companies with vast resources come into their country, take their resources, and in return do little other than pay a meager wage to those who labor for these companies. The systems that are put in place by forced democracy are meant to keep separation between the rich and the poor. Three movies that depict how these systems work, or don’t work, are City of God, Even the Rain, and Trinkets and Beads. These movies have commonalities that the people of Latin America deal with day to day like loyalty, poverty, drug trafficking, slums, and exploitation of the indigenous people.…

Throughout this course, we were exposed to many ideas about organism classification due to evolutionary linkages, survival of the fittest and random out comes. Charles Darwin’s evolutionary theory often creates conflicts with religious teachings in particular, Christianity; many Christians disagree with Darwin’s theory that “man is not the most supreme creature on earth, but humans just evolved from a single cell over long periods of time.” Faith is intangible; it could simply be a belief. Christianity is just a belief, which is the same as Charles Darwin’s evolutionary theory, since both of them cannot be proven; which means nobody is wrong, therefore we should be open minded to learn from them that way we could learn more about the world.…
Social realist messages normally concentrate on the sort of characters not for the most part found in standard movies. Social realist writings attract characters that occupy the social edges of society as far as status and force. This 'social augmentation' has typically included the representation of the regular workers at snippets of social and monetary change. Slope has noticed that this is not simply a question of speaking to the beforehand under-spoke to however that these subjects are spoken to from diverse particular social points of view. It has been contended that all in all the representation of the common laborers has moved from being makers to shoppers reflected in a move which has seen individuals from the average workers in more privatized local situations and relaxation time settings rather than as individuals from topographical groups or in working environment situations where aggregate haggling methodology are set up.…

Since the narrator chose to study this, it was a voluntary study with the participants knowledge, and no harm done to anyone involved, it is not breaking the law. He could have been harmed, or gotten in trouble with the law for being an accomplice…
John Locke, a famous French philosopher, believed that people were naturally good, but English philosopher, Thomas Hobbes, believed that humans were evil by nature. Both perspectives have credibility and validity to a certain extent. However, one common trend that can be traced through Arthur Miller’s The Crucible and modern American life is the prevalence of destructives forces such as hysteria, greed, and fear. Human nature can be good or evil based on which side of himself a person decides to work for. Because humans have continued to exhibit their good as well as evil nature one cannot exist without the other.…
For most Christians, the violation of the law that theses teachers broke was the disgrace that questioned who should have the right to teach their children the “truth” of evolution. This started a trend that most Christians didn’t appreciate or accept. What made things worse not only were teachers teaching evolution to their students, but instead now Negros, bell hops, and believers were telling people their views of…
At the beginning of the 19th century, a counter-attack on the Age of Reason and rational thought was pullulating. Enhanced by new forms of art and literature, messages about salvation and opportunity for all were spread by persons such as Timothy Dwight, a Yale University figurehead, and these messages were comprehended and accepted by the general public. Charles Finney reported the drastic changes that occurred in the lives of “[former] harlots, [drunkards and infidels]” (DOC B) after conversion to Christianity. Leaders like Finney led to the replacement of envy with acceptance and appreciation in everyday life. A document by William H. McGuffey illustrates these cultural improvements, using a poor boy as example, “He does not envy them, nor…

In Christina Hoff Sommers’ article “Teaching the Virtues”, she begins describing an article she wrote where she condemns the manner in which American colleges teach ethics. Sommers emphasizes that higher educational institutions neglect teaching students about private morality and are too focused on teaching social policy, which in turns “.... gives students the wrong ideas about ethics.” She argues that we must deal with both of them. Although her colleague disagrees and disapproves of Sommers sentiment and believes that Sommers wasted effort on pushing bourgeois morality and virtue is causing harm on enlightening students’ on their social sense of right and wrong, she concedes when she realized that her students had cheated on their take…
The film Hearts and Minds is a documentary made by Peter Davis in 1974 to portray America’s unethical involvement in Vietnam and examine the opinions of many by showing interviews and vivid footages. The film focuses more on those who were against the war than those who supported it. For the U.S. all that mattered was the victory. However, those who were opposed to the war felt that there was no right or reasonable justification for their actions. The real issue illustrated by the film was whether the U.S. wanted to protect the country from communism or to manifest its greatest power in the world by winning another war.…
