Traditional sense of right and wrong stopped being so within the sharp-spiked wire of the concentration camps. Within the camps, prisoners were not treated like humans and therefore changed (for improvement) animal-like behavior necessary to survive. The "ordinary moral world" (86) Primo Levi refers to in Survival in Auschwitz, stops to exist; the meanings and applications

This I Believe I believe we can make America great again. No, I am not talking about Donald Trump, or even the presidential position in our government. I’m talking about we the people of the United States. It is true that our government makes the laws, sets the boundaries, and decides what’s right and what’s wrong in the books, but we the people decide what’s right and what’s wrong in the eyes of society and I believe that is more important now more than ever before.

Sophocles, in Antigone says, if we cannot determine what is right or wrong, we should ignore pride and continue living by reasoning and follow God’s laws; however, if we don’t follow God’s law we will experience the wrath of God. In a world where we have the incapability to determine what is morally right or wrong we need to ignore pride as it places us on a course that only leads to devastation.

throughout Tao Te Ching is acting rightly (right action). Acting rightly is a process that everybody does but we don’t recognize it. We all, at some point, have helped people who were less fortunate than us. Whether if that was buying homeless people food or donating blood in order to save people’s life. Why I said that acting rightly is a process is because it takes time. One cannot call himself or herself a righteous person when they only did right one time. It takes multiple good deeds for

the beliefs of the world right now. The Taliban was the main focus of the text as it was the main reason behind Malala and her country’s pain.
