    In the first paragraph of essay A, there was a meaningful introduction to the quote that was later used. Even before reading the quote, I already had an idea on what the quote was about and how it was used as evidence for the argument. I thought that there should have been a better transition from the writer’s voice to the author’s voice because it felt like there was a sense of urgency when the writer said, “He later states that...”. The writer should have included more information before the quote to show the relevance of that quote. There was a clear understanding of why the quote was chosen; it was chosen to portray how Appiah agrees in whatever Charles Taylor had to say.…

Moral reasoning requires that four criteria must be met including; universality, thoughtfulness, concern for others, and expression of moral value. Though a particular situation may have many moral reasons, one moral reason being explained at a time will reflect a clear understanding and justification for the reasoning. Providing a list of moral reasoning related to the case in 'steps' may help to streamline the argument and make points valid. When considering moral reason in an argument one must ask themselves, " Does this reason apply to everyone?"…

    Many aspects play a role in “The Great Sin of the Evangelical Right,” by Dan Olinger. These aspects allow him to believe that people do not behave like God has control over every situation. This appeals to the ridiculed Christian for living out their faith in modern society. It also requests the attention of those who see others in the world who claim, but do not let God take control. This article highly depends upon levels of formality, imagery, choices in the use of his language, and evidence.…

    Patricia, I used that scripture in my discussion as well. It tells us some much when it comes to confessing and believing in the word of God. It tells is the baptism is not a requirement to obtain God's salvation, but our faith is what draws us nearer to God. Faith and believing is what allows God to enter in our hearts.

    The Exposition of the Problem of Evil In my paper, I will present the argument Weirob gives on the Problem of Evil, and explain Miller’s response to the Problem of Evil. I will explain why the character of Weirob argues it is impossible for an omniscient, omnipotent, and totally good God to exist simultaneously with evil in the world and go into detail about how Weirob believes that if God has these traits, He should be able to eliminate all evils in the world before they occur. Then I will give Miller’s defense to this argument which includes how God and evil can both exist in the world.…

    This essay analyzes how Nietzsche’s and Epictetus’s work can be used to form a philosophical anecdote for the irrational rule of reasoning known as awfulizing. Awfulizing can be defined as perceiving a situation to be as bad as it possibly could be. Awfulizing can occur when a person begins to look at aspects of life in a negative way, which is considered an irrational way of thinking about a situation. For instance, when a friend or family member dies, theft, illness, injury, financial issues, etc. occur a person dealing with one of the specific issues would look at a situation and only focus on negative things like the struggles it will cause and the negative side effects. However, there are some positive things that can be taken away from a negative situation that cannot be realized if a person is awfulizing.…

    This is public discourses, that lends to the concept of debating and communicating ideas for the growth of both parties. I am strongly against sharing inaccurate historical information. It not only lends to false information being spread, but it also makes it harder for people to have a reasonable conversation. I am sorry that you do not value historical arguments.
