Sire, indicates that nihilism is the denial that anything is valuable, absolute denial of everything, denies the reality of existence itself (Sire, n.d. page 94), the human life has no main purpose or meaning. These types of theories are a huge threat that creates problems within our confused society. Much…

some drivers use denial as an excuse as a method to avoid receiving sanctions. Through denial they can convince an officer by being ignorant and remorseful. In some cases, the driver claims ignorance by distancing him or herself from responsibility. In one example the driver labels her driving decision as “stupid” (13). Because she confessed for her law violation and moral failing, the officer was lenient. Furthermore, a driver can as well utilize news as excuse. By being in denial, the driver…

I have heard about the Holocaust for as long as I remember. Coming from Europe it was very much talked about early on in school. The Holocaust took place during World War II and refers to when the German Nazis tried to wipe out Jews, this is called Genocide. About six million Jews were killed, children, women, homosexuals, everybody was targeted. If you were a Jew, you were going to die. What I think often is forgotten about the Holocaust is that it wasn’t just Jews that were victim to the…

In one word, he denied for the existence of miracles. In his theory, miracles have been brought about by God and/or invisible power, which related to God against rules of nature;…
