Summary: Donating Too Much Money To MCA

Decent Essays
Peggy Fischer and Peter Smith’s superordinate goal should be to donate an agreed upon amount of money to MCA that both parties feel comfortable with. Peter should not fee like he is donating too much money to MCA where he will feel financially strapped going forward and Peggy should feel like she received an appropriate settlement from the original pledge where MCA does not feel like it is in as bad of a financial position that it is now. This donation should also help with the construction of the new building, but maybe the new building plans are not as extravagant as they are now. MCA will still be able to build an amazing facility, but maybe it has a smaller library, no café, or special events area. The museum should build a facility

    Monuments are statues or areas that honor a deep sacrifice or a very important person in a country. A monument helps connect the present to the past by linking the two together; “I wanted to create a unity between the nation’s past and present.” (Lin) The creation of a monument should be considered only when a deep sacrifice has been made and the location, along with the price, is reasonable. A monument should be constructed when a deep sacrifice to the country has been made; “all the names of those missing and killed (57,000) must be part of the memorial;...”…

    Gary Anderson’s book Charity: The Place of the Poor in the Biblical Tradition sets out an argument that almsgiving is a religious offering to God throughout the Jewish and Christian traditions and texts. He makes the statement that early Christians and Jews focused on almsgiving as revealing the character of God and created world. Anderson sets up almsgiving as a sacrament, where giving to the poor becomes a way to access the kingdom of heaven. This action has such power because through showing mercy to another, one meets Christ, a view which is often repeated throughout early Christianity. Through almsgiving, people have the opportunity to imitate and share in God’s divine mercy.…

    Duncan argues that this is what binds a community together by in a civic body through identification of its highest values, its truest truths and proudest moments. It is through this way that museums achieve a ritual quality that is usually associated with certain religious institutions. In addition to sometimes mimicking the architecture of classic temples, Duncan suggests that museums work like shrines or temples. She is of the opinion that when visitors arrive at a museum, they have certain expectations as well as willingness to learn and compensate.

She mentions that government regulation of human organs would save lives since people are suffering and dying. No drugs can cure a failed kidney so people use dialysis, a long, expensive, temporary solution. MacKay notes that in the year 2000 there were 2,583 American deaths waiting for a transplant and 50,000 worldwide (157). There is a long wait list for transplants so people turn to the black market to buy a live kidney, versus a cadaverous transplant.…
