Axiom

This figure first of all it shows us what happens if two people from different cultures and countries have a meeting for a reason, (such as negotiations or friendship), which in these days is something very common due to the fact that the world is everyday more and more globalized. As soon as this two people start to communicate the first thing they will perceive is a cultural difference. “Perceived cultural differences underscores diversity in features illustrated by differences in world view,…

a landscape is far more complicated than just observing landmarks. There are many different approaches to learning more about a culture through their landscape and Peirce Lewis provides multiple axioms to facilitate this learning. One of Peirce Lewis’s axioms is the axiom of landscape obscurity. This axiom states that most objects in a landscape convey a message, just not in an obvious manner. In order to better understand the landscape it is necessary to create the simple habit of asking…

Destruction of dystopian citizens and everything around them leaves them to believe they need someone to tell them what to feel, say, and think. Their society cannot function without this dictatorship. There is also destruction at every turn. The citizens of the dystopian society feel that they want an organized society. Therefore allowing citizens to stop destruction and dehumanization of their society. The oppressive government of a dystopian society maintains control by dehumanizing the…

years in the future, the Earth is over-run with garbage and devoid of plant and animal life, the consequence of years of environmental degradation and thoughtless consumerism. The surviving humans are living on the spaceship Axiom after vacating Earth centuries earlier. Axiom is operated by a large corporation called Buy N Large, whose BnL logo appears even on the artificial sun visible from the ship's main concourse. The original plan was for humans to live in outer space for 5 years while…

exert all effort for them. To boot, they have different distractions happening on their screens while talking to each other, so they do not even bother to give the other their full attention. The technology available to them allows inhabitants of the Axiom to multitask too much,…

2. The logical fallacy of circular reasoning: Beginning with what could be infinite regression, the infinite regression hooks up to itself in a circle of reasoning. Under those circumstances, the proof for one of the premises is one of the previous premises. In these cases, circular reasoning hides a problem with the premise. Form: A proves B and B proves A. Form: A proves B, B proves C, and C proves A. Example: An ungodly thinker says her reasoning is to be trusted. But how does she know?…

it is then evident that the principle of mathematical induction applies to this collection. In order to prove that the process of taking successors continues without end, Hempel is forced to take the existence of infinity as axiomatic. However, the axiom of infinity cannot be a mere logical law. We can imagine a self-consistent universe containing only finitely many objects (we can even imagine one with numbers that add and multiply, as in modular arithmetic); we cannot imagine a self-consistent…

From the time man began to fraternise, our decisions have been determined, whether consciously or unconsciously, by reason. Reason is something that we use whenever we make a decision. We have become very conformable with reasoning that now most of the time, our reasoning occurs instinctively. In order to have more control over our actions, it is possible to teach our bodies how to reason consciously, however, reasoning can sometime s be at the spur of the moment or as a reflex and therefore…

A person is not born; instead, they are made with time. As mentioned in class, psychologists would agree with this as persons are ethical and moral objects. As such, the development of Homo sapiens into ethonomous, moral persons must coincide with aging, cultural or religious influence and development of mental processes. Therefore, this essay will attempt to organize the actualization of personhood with the natural life stages of Homo sapiens. The development will track human beings as they…
