Proof by contradiction

Modern law and religion are fundamental socio-political phenomena that share basic foundations. They aspire to constitute, or at least to frame, human consciousness and behaviour in all spheres of life. Accordingly, modern law and religion are complementary, contradictory and simultaneous sources of rule-making, adjudication and execution. Both embed obedience and obligations, leadership, institutions and legal ideology as foundations for their maintenance and prevalence, based on a strict…

Shakespeare 's “Macbeth”, ambition plays as one of the most important themes, also as a ruthless motivation that urges Macbeth 's cruel nature and eventually turns him into a bloodthirsty monster. In this play, there is a tremendous display of contradiction and ambition…

respect, the belief in moral principles is different from the belief in speculative principles. No one would think of giving reasons to justify the belief in the law of non-contradiction, which holds that a thing cannot be what it is and what it is not at the same time. That would be like trying to prove the principles of proof itself, which would be nonsensical. This is not the case with respect to moral beliefs: one can always give reasons for believing that people should keep their promises,…

Since the very beginnings humans have been a social species. We have always looked for companionship, for having peers with whom to interact, share our ideas and emotions. Loneliness has inspired us fear. Not in vain in most of the heroic, epic tales of the past most of the tragic moments of mythology occurred while the heroes were forced to face all the dangers and extreme challenges alone. It was often only that they had accomplished the most difficult duties such as defeating monsters and…

Polarization is when the extremist drive the groups apart and and create multiple hate groups to begin broadcasting polarizing propaganda. While tearing the Rwandan culture apart, they had to flee their homes and become refugees in neighboring countries, despite them sharing a common history and same language (Rugma). Even whistles were blown so the Tutsi’s knew when to evacuate their homes and go into hiding to remain safe (Straus). The MNRD and interahamwe used all forms of media available…

Iago’s Success in Manipulation In William Shakespeare's play Othello, Iago is the main cause of every downfall throughout the play, enduring themes of racism, jealousy, betrayal, vengeance, and repentance. Not only did Iago tell fallacious statements, but also structured a reputation based on “honesty” and plain speaking. However, how can one be consistently honest over long periods of time? Moreover, Iago had risen through the army ranks by his achievements, which Othello accepted him due to…

side but it does describe my work ethic. As a worker, I am hard working, devoted, and reliable on completing a task in an orderly fashion. I have goals that I am constantly working hard for even if evidence of progress is invisible to others, the proof is in the pudding. How I see work is a job that complete and try to do your best than last time because business is all about being better next time. Extra work or being a workaholic should never dominate the job nor delay gratification on long…

On February 2nd, 2015, Dave “Boyinaband” Brown posted “Don’t Stay In School” to his YouTube channel. This three minute music video featured Dave singing about his gripes with the current school system, specifically the system’s insistence on teaching things that could be deemed unimportant, over those things that could be practically useful in life or in a career. He then used this as a springboard to start discussions about how the school system could be improved, including changing some of the…

The topic of US’ states lowering the minimum drinking age to eighteen or keeping the age at twenty one has been a hot, controversial topic over the past few years. As of July 1988, each of the fifty states have made their MLDA, minimum legal drinking age, twenty one (Eastman). Given that each state has the same drinking age, it greatly reduces drinking and driving among teens because they cannot drive to another state, drink, and return home while intoxicated. Although both sides of the argument…
