“Oh I see where we took a wrong turn,” Kelley sighed with relief, “We have to take a right and then go straight all the way to that bridge.” They began walking, all relieved that they found a way out of the sticky situation that they were in. “I see our mom,” Will announced as they walked up towards their mom. Finally they reached Kelley and Will’s mom, “Why do you all look so nervous and sweaty?” Their mom questioned. All four of them laughed, “Just a bit nervous from the rides,” Makayla stuttered with an uneasy look on her face.

Her dog Belle was eating the couch again, when her mom got home she’d be mad. Surena went up stairs to her bedroom and forgot to lock the door that day, when her mother warned her many times before to
In this paper, I will discuss about the Divine Command Theory and Euthyphro Problem and show how the Euthyphro Problem makes the Divine Command Theory morality arbitrary. Also, I will discuss why one does not have to reject the belief in God due to the Divine Command Theory cannot give a satisfactory answer to the Euthyphro Problem. First, I will define what the Divine Command Theory is and discuss its attractive features that answer the problem about the objectivity of ethnics. Second, I will define the Euthyphro Problem. Also, I will discuss how the Euthyphro Problem makes the Divine Command Theory morality arbitrary and show how it makes the doctrine of God’s goodness meaningless. Finally, I will discuss why one does not have to reject the belief in God just because one rejects the Divine Command Theory.
Both films in this comparison are considered historically brilliant, which can be attested to their styles, creative genius, social themes and context, all of which have held up against time. Both films are incredible in their individual rights as well, certifying themselves as films that won’t be forgotten, and even defining aspects of filmmaking for works to follow. Despite their differences in story and appearance, there is a particular likeness in their exploration of characters that makes these films so alike. Both films have interesting characters that lead the story, and both Kazan and Hitchcock take advantage of that by allowing those characters to provide depth to their respective worlds.
Why didn’t we stay in the car?” “She’s so stupid,” Emma thought, “Should I tell her, or should I not tell her? What should I do?” “Because higher ground, and that means that it’s warmer,” replied Emma.

That’s the best thing to do.” They went near the car and Ebony punched Emma and took the car keys and tied getting into the car without her. Emma got up and punched Ebony and they wrestled.

In today’s world, there are all kinds of stereotypical comments that people have to deal with. We take the concept of judging others for granted. If you peak into your past and recall how many times you have assumed the outcome before weighing all the circumstances. There are a large percentage of people that make quick opinions about people, events, and nationalities based on their little knowledge. In our society, assuming is a common problem. The public has a problem of coming to a conclusion based on just the person’s appearance. In your lifetime, you all must have stereotyped a person knowingly or unknowingly. Stereotyping is considered to be a problem because it can lead to a conclusion based merely on a person’s appearance and surroundings. But these aspects should not matter when making an opinion about a person. The movie Crash shows the authenticity of how people negatively stereotype each other’s race and ethnicity. It also shows how people are racist towards each other because of their different race. Stereotypes and mistrust are considered to be barriers that inhibit interracial relationships among people.

All my life I grew up in one area. I attended the same school district and knew most if not all the kids in my grade. I continue to have a strong bond with my parents, my siblings, and my friends. I grew up in a very positive environment and I would not change anything about it. My parents would cook for me and made sure I had all my school work completed. On the other hand, Jeannette grew up a little differently. Her parents also encouraged her to do her homework, but the way they wanted her to do it. There was one instance in the story where she completed her homework using binary numbers and her teacher did not accept it because it was not what she was asking for her to do. Jeannette’s parents always encouraged them to go above and beyond as my parents did as well. Jeannette was sometimes expected to cook for herself if her parents were not cooking anything.
