    If trials actually did this, competency evaluations would be superfluous. Since society is not preparing to avenge the crime, there would be nothing egregiously unfair about going straight to trial. In reality, Tortorici’s trial was a moral one. Although the prosecution acknowledged Tortorici’s overt mental illness, they emphasized that the jurors must consider whether he was legally insane, arguing that: “The issue is not whether Ralph Tortorici is crazy, insane ……

    Due to the Confederation government’s inability to collect taxes from the states, one of the most effective ways for states to pay their debts was to give up their western land holdings to the national government. Therefore, North Carolina, in 1783, gave up their western lands that are now known as East Tennessee. Settlers flooded this area as a new chance. When the land was finally ceded to the national government, the settlers and speculators kept their private property rights in the region.…

    On the topic of participation awards, Lisa Heffernan and Vivian Diller have both published articles advocating either for, or against rewarding children at a young age, regardless if they’ve won a game or not. In terms of making a strong argument, both writers used celebrity testimonies, life experience, and quotes from reputable sources, some tactics more effective than others. In Lisa Heffernan’s article favoring participation trophies, “In Defense of Participation Trophies: Why They Really do Teach the Right Values,” she often pulls from her most powerful and relevant source to her topic- her son. Statements such as “When my son was around eight years old … he scoffed at the very idea that such an award existed.” would play a critical role in setting up a counter argument, but much like her other quotations in her article, it was followed by a statement from Hillary L. Friedman, a sociologist, that initially seems to back up her son’s opinion.…

    In 1968 a philosopher named H.J. McCloskey wrote an article titled “On Being an Atheist,” which attacked the main arguments held by theists. The main arguments that he refers to as “proofs” are the cosmological argument, the teleological argument, and the ontological argument. McCloskey’s article debunks these arguments as being false and without proof. He states that theists should dismiss the idea of God entirely. He claims in his opening statements that he will show reasons why theists should be miserable just because they are theists (1).…

    It was around this time that Gage helped with the new merge of the AWSA and the NWSA. However, the new National American Woman’s Suffrage Association (NAWSA) looked to the WTCU for support. Frances Willard and the Woman’s Christian Temperance Union (WTCU) began to enter the ranks of NWSA. Before this, the NWSA was a fringe movement with outlier members; on the other hand, the WTCU had nearly four times as many supporters and was considered a more acceptable movement for woman to be involved in. Gage was furious at the WTCU’s involvement and “was unwilling to compromise her position on the absolute necessity of religious freedom as a prerequisite for authentic women’s liberation.…

    Initially I will present a description of theological instrumentalism and the motivations for advocating religious fiction as instrumentally valuable. One of the motivations for rejecting theism is the problem of evil. The problem of evil when treated as a fiction is thought to avoidable as the instrumentalist is the creator of his fictional world and so can exclude inconsistencies. I argue that the instrumentalist does not need to avoid the problem of evil and that it can be fictionally valuable. Further, if the instrumentalist does not include suffering in their fiction, this can lead to pragmatic inconsistencies.…
