A set of laws are a necessity for human society – without them, humans can retrogress back into a state of nature. Homer, in his epic, The Odyssey, shows readers the outcome of a society when rules are not obeyed and, instead, ignored. An unbalance occurs and Homer proves to readers that without laws, a terrible dystopia is born. Rules that are followed are essential in a well-built society, and Homer thinks that when no one is present to enforce these rules, and they are instead ignored, the break-down of society occurs, causing chaos and disorder to roam freely.
Rules are created to control and to manipulate the populace which they do not allow individualism which, if not allowed to do so there would be no will to go on, shackled to the own consciousness. These rules exist to disallow individualism so people would not have the will to
In today's army, being on time can be a paramount activity. Consequences for not showing up on time can be disasterous. In a normal job, you get up, go to work, and come home, and that is the limit of the level of involvement. The army is not one of
The members of the armed forces are well know, and well respected for their discipline. Part of that discipline comes from the ability to follow the orders of your subordinates, even if they don’t feel like it or don’t agree with them. How disciplined can a soldier be if they don’t follow orders. The soldier in question can’t be very disciplined if they fail to follow instructions right? It goes against everything a soldier stands for. This makes them a danger to their team members, especially in a time of war. I do not think
In order for the Army to be a profession, the American people need to determine and declare us a profession. We provide security and defense to our citizens and in exchange, they trust and honor that our decisions are for the benefit of our nation. The people do not regulate the Army, but they trust that the Army regulates itself thru its ethic. I quote, “The Army Ethic is the evolving set of laws, values, and beliefs, deeply embedded within the core of the Army culture and practiced by all members of the Army Profession to motivate and guide the appropriate conduct of individual members bound together in common moral purpose.” Laws alone will not make a soldier a professional; it is the way the army educates, motivates and shapes a soldier to become a professional. A competent professional with a strong character and commitment
This platoon is a family and as a family we should work as such no questions asked when something needs to be completed as an nco I need to complete the mission first at all times to get it accomplished in a timely manner and ensure that it is completed
Rules in Life Most people don’t like following rules. Some people don’t mind following rules. Everyone can relate to the quote in The Handmaid’s Tale “A rat in a maze is free to go anywhere, as long as it stays inside the maze.” (165) We want to be free, but we have these walls around us that won’t let us do what we want. I believe that people are the rat and that the walls are rules. Over time people figure that rules are walls that won’t budge. This is all hard to understand right now, but in the future people will understand what it means.
Blindly following rules and traditions without question can erode one’s human nature and contribute to the demise of society. Imposing strict compliance to social norms and traditions limits open-minded opinions and can restrict a society’s ability to expand its boundaries and prevent individuals from growing and maturing. Not being able to overcome the controlling ways of unbending and authoritative figures introduces the possibility of corruption and oppression against society. A society without the room for diversity and change imprisons individuals, limits innovation, and prevents society from evolving. It is important to respect traditions and society’s rules in order to learn from the past and create social order but not blindly
The world is based on rules, laws and regulations. If people were free to do as the please the world would be in mass chaos. Many of my peers have wanted a rule free society to do as they please I was surprised on what they most likely wanted. Society was built on rules for a reason humans are imperfect we make mistakes but also some make bigger mistakes like under aged drinking younger people would be crashing cars. There would be no fire departments, police departments, or hospitals. We had just finished The Giver were people live in a so called utopia. This utopia was a mask of the reality of life and was full of lies and unsureness. I will prove to you that rules are in import to the world and everyone in it.
Society, on the outside, is organized chaos. Take Chicago for instance, if we removed rules and time, it would be in turmoil. Crime, chaos, disorder; the city would not last more than aday. If we add in laws, and enforced them with police, much of that chaos would subside. However,
To Regulate or Not to Regulate. Chronic health issues, such as obesity and diabetes, are becoming a global concern. Most of these health issues arise during adulthood, but are developed during childhood based on consumption habits. The portion sizes of junk food should be restricted. Portions should be modified and in
Rules sometimes set boundaries and make society feel pressured to act a certain way around others. Rules are usually set up for so that society can run smoothly, communities could be safer, and so that everyone is treated fairly. However, some people might oppose this because sometimes rules are
Rules of Third Rule of Third was an easy task to complete. In this picture I took, I frame the phone to be on the side but not all the way. I made the phone more interesting by turning on the camera and letting the landscape fill in. My success with this photo is that it brings more attention to what’s going on in the phone and bring a perfect image in my opinion.
My rules that I use in my daily life to guide my moral behavior are the laws, which is a formal public policy, and the rules of the Bible. I mostly follow these two things as my moral compass. A law helps me to know what behavior is right and wrong, and the rules of the Bible tells me what behavior is good or bad to my identity and values. In the lecture, Professor Mun said a law is “the public’s agency for translating morality into explicit social guidelines and practices and for stipulating punishments for offenses.” However, following the guidelines of the law doesn’t always make people moral. For example, cheating on boyfriend or girlfriend is not illegal, but it is obviously bad because
Rules and Laws have played a very crucial role throughout human history. More importantly the rules were made and laws implemented by those individuals that wielded power over the masses. These individuals would use their power to put in place laws that benefited them and those they favored. In almost all these cases the poor and the weak were taken advantage of and used by the powerful. This unfortunately is an ongoing problem even in today 's world, and presents the importance of the concept of Rule of Law. Rule of Law is a legally binding principle put in place to govern a nation. Rule of Law can be defined in short as a doctrine that no single individual, however powerful they maybe, should be considered above the law. In principle
