Command pattern

If anything god says is to be taken as good and true, then he cannot be wrong. If he cannot be wrong, then there is nothing to make his commands right either. For example, if a game was created with the rule that a specific person could never lose, it would be meaningless to say that he is good at that game. No matter how many times he won, there would be no skill or wisdom involved as it…

Security (DHS) along with adding the National Response Plan (NRP) and the National Response Framework (NRF) (Rubin, 2012). With the spiralling effects, the military focused on the combatant commander (USNORTHCOM). U.S. Northern Command, U.S. Southern Command and U.S. Pacific Command were charged with supporting domestic civil authorities through Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, Explosives (high yield) (CBRNE) Consequence Management (CM) operations when the President deems necessary…

The following is summary of my life after graduation. Right after graduating in 1963 John Callahan (Geibel High School class of 63) and I enlisted in the US Air Force. On the August 20th 1963 we left Connellsville for Lackland Airforce Base in Antonio TX for basic training. He and I ended up spending some of the hottest months of the year in Texas. I can still remember getting off the airplane in San Antonio at 3 AM and being shocked at the heat and humidity (~85 degrees). After our twelve weeks…

Gensler: Divine Command Theory Gensler’s main argument for the Divine Command Theory is to argue the moral reasons for the existence of God. He gives the premises that everyone knows objective moral duties. Then comes the idea that if there are objective moral duties there has to be something that makes them moral law. For this the only answer that makes sense is God because it cannot be a person or other individuals in society since we do not have the authority to tell someone is they do…

Divine Command Theory is the belief that an action is morally good if and only if that action is commanded by God. This means that actions not directly commanded by God are wrong, such as murder, stealing, adultery, etc. The way this is worded is very similar to virtue theory, which states that an action is morally good if and only if the action is good for the person doing the action. Rather than basing the morality of a situation on whether it is just or pleasure-making for other people, it…

It should be said that the Incident Command System (ICS) has its own functional structure. This structure can be divided by five key functional areas. These areas require a specific focus to learn their actual responsibilities and mechanisms of action. As it was mentioned, the ICS incorporates five core functional areas which are responsible for certain roles and responsibilities in context of emergency management. In particular, they are command, operations, planning, logistics, and…

response was more complex than the World Trade Center attack, thus creating additional problems for responders at the scene. When the Arlington County Fire Department (ACFD) established the incident command structure, the ACFD based their response efforts on the Incident Command System and Unified Command (reference). Additional units from the Department of Defense (DoD), the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Urban Search and Rescue Task…

and therefore possible sources of knowledge. Identifying one source of knowledge becomes problematic. Finally, morality cannot depend on the commandments of God. If morality depended on the commandments of God, either morality is arbitrary or God’s command is irrelevant. After careful examination of the arguments supporting the view that religion is essential for morality, it is clear that morality can exist independently from…

Introduction The cyber domain is perhaps the most complex domain to define in modern warfare. Academic literature has secured cyber as both a domain and part of the global common. National laws, policies, and understanding of the cyber domain are just being to mature; thus, the strategy to guide and form the required organizations to support cyber is just being to develop. This paper will consider whether the current national cyber construct is sufficient to address the cyber domains unique…

Socrates during Plato’s Euthyphro. The question is seen to object the Divine Command Theory. Socrates asked, “is the pious loved by the gods because it is pious, or is it pious because it is loved by the gods?” or in other words, “Are morally good acts willed by God because they are morally good, or are they morally good because they are willed by God?” (Philosophy of Religion The Origin of the Euthyphro Dilemma). The Divine Command theorist faces problems that will not allow them to be able to…
