Article 1: Boyer, Pascal. Human instincts that fashion God. 2001. Retrieved from, http://www.nous.org.uk/Boyer.html. Inference concerns a logical conclusion based on evidence. One arrives at inference after consideration of the face value of the evidence. This clearly indicates that inference is not the result of systematic analysis nor is it the result of testing of evidence. Therefore, in order to note an inference one should achieve a conclusion based on evidence obtained concerning the aspect under concern. - Ad populum “Faith is not always necessary - Ad Ignorantium “Human mind may have evolved to experience the world in domain-specific ways” ...

Introduction

What are we going to do on our paper? A broad map of what we are going to do with this paper is that we are going to look at three different premises found in a sentence and look at the conclusion it’s going to have. In this, the first premise is; in order to have a purpose, something must be intended to play a certain role. The first premise contains two more premises, which leads up to the conclusion. The second premise that comes from the first premise is; for a certain role to be played by ...

The Central Intelligence Agency was established courtesy of the National Security Act in 1947. The agency has by large retained its structure and form until the recent changes introduced in 2004 courtesy of the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act. However, by and large, the agency has often remained with one primary mandate. This entails the collection of intelligence for the consumption of policymakers in the United States of America. This role calls for a higher threshold of ethics and moral conduct given the sensitivity of the function in question. It is imperative to appreciate the fact that intelligence ...

Persuasion is an important goal of public discourse and it can be achieved in many ways. However, since ancient times, politicians, salesmen, and public figures, often resort to invalid argument or fallacies to persuade people to accept that what they express is true. This can be made intentionally or not, but the arguments made this way are wrong nonetheless. This work analyzes three arguments taken from different internet sources, to spot fallacies committed identifying the premises used and the conclusions they arrive to. This way, one can find out what the argument is trying to prove and why its ...

In the Crito, an astonishingly solid claim has been made by Socrates about the authority of the state, in terms of the principles of right and wrong behavior. However, his claim does not seem consistent not only with another underlying claim that has been made in the Crito, but also with particular claims that have been made by him in the Apology. The purpose of this short essay is to argue that it is actually possible to interpret the claims that Socrates makes about the state’s authority in a way that inconsistencies with other claims are removed. At ...

Natural selection is a premise advanced by Charles Darwin to explain the evolution of the human race. Darwin argued that evolution was based on a survival for the fittest strategy, and so some features of early humans evolved to ensure they dominated their ecosystems. This premise is applicable in analyzing the evolution of racism among the American society. Howard Zinn recognizes that whereas early African-Americans in the United States were treated as servants and not slaves, they were never regarded as equals to the Americans. Borrowing from Darwin’s arguments, it is evident that the natives considered the introduction ...

Abstract

Many establishments are faced with the decision to do laundry on-premise or off-premise. To make the right decision considerations are made on what benefits one stands to reap and what set backs one may encounter. On- premise laundry will ensure flexibility in scheduling, more control over the whole process and reduced costs. Laundry issues are a real concern for most establishments including hospitals, food service industries , hotels and manufacturing industries. In order to decide whether to operate an on-premises laundry or to out- source one considers quantities of laundry and frequency of need. The laundry selected should handle the ...

Exercise 1: Your March 3 (00) editorial describing the deeded lineage of Willamette Meteorite overlooks a salient aspect of the Confederated Tribes of the Grand Ronde Community’s claim to the artefact. The pervasive ramblings of the United States Cavalry across Indian land had a very coercive effect on Indian willingness to sign treaties in 1855, when the land on which the meteorite rested was obtained by the treaty. The Willamette Meteorite doesn’t belong in the Museum of Natural History any more than the Brooklyn Dodgers belong in the Los Angeles.

Answer: The above paragraph can be reformulated as premises and conclusion as follows:

Premise 2: The land on which the ...

Introduction

Controversy has always characterized the study of international relations, particularly in terms of politics. The complexity of such field has enabled the applicability of many theoretical models in studying politics in the international arena. There could be no “one-size-fits-all” approach, as there is an understanding that several theories have attempted to explain phenomena within international relations. Three theories – neorealism, neoliberalism and classical realism, stand out as among the most prominent ones applicable in studying international relations, with each tending to construct distinctive interpretations. This study seeks to establish that of the three aforementioned theories, classical realism ...

Question 1

The Conclusion made in the second argument is that there was a reason behind the start of the existence of causal reality. I do believe that the conclusion made is true. This is because causal reality is a reality that is observed or experienced as a result of a certain occurrence. In my opinion, all causes or occurrences exhibit some result, which ultimately, lead to the existence of a certain reality.

Question 2

The conclusion made in argument two has been properly supported by the premises given in the same argument. This is because the first premise in the second argument ...

While this philosophical movement was in the beginning described as Logical Empiricism, or Neopositivism it is nowadays much more accurately described bas Analytical Philosophy. It conducts language and notion analysis on the basis of logic.

The debate over abortion has been raging for quite some time in our culture. In recent times, one observes that abortions have become commonplace. Most supporters primarily argue with respect to autonomy and women’s rights with respect to abortion. On the other hand, the pro-life supporters argue with the fact that the act of abortion results in the killing of a fetus. Since the act of killing is morally and ethically despicable, pro-life supporters use this argument as a foundation. On a moral basis too, Kantian ethics renders abortion as an immoral act for a number of different ...

Critical Thinking –Argument Support Mechanics

When a certain argument is false, an individual is supposed to be cautious in his opinions. However, the logical validity of an argument is its internal consistency and not the truth value. For instance, when an individual argues that there is a wet wall in the street, but nobody has seen the rain. The argument of this statement is correct since the opinion must accept the argument’s premises truth. Thus, it is extremely hard to refute an argument based on false premise since its truth cannot satisfy all the involved parties. The conclusion of an invalid argument should ...

Introduction

The relationship between tenants and their landlords should be harmonious and mutual. This calls for respect and understanding from either side (Luba, & Forster, 2009). However, governments have introduced laws and regulations that govern the relationship between landlords and their tenants. These laws and regulations basically award certain rights to tenants, while also providing certain rights and responsibilities to the landlords. There have been cases, where many landlords violate these regulations i.e. failing to make certain repairs or charging exorbitant rental prices on their tenants (Luba, & Forster, 2009).

Concept Definition

Social structure refers to the pattern within the culture organization through which social action takes place. It is also defined as the arrangement of roles, organizations, institutions, and cultural symbols that are stable over time, often unnoticed and are changing more invisibly. Social structure enhances and constrains what takes place in social life (López & Scott, 2000). The definition, however, is altered from time to time on different levels of socio-analysis. In macro-sociology, social structure is understood as social institutions, socioeconomic stratification, or other relations between large social groups that are patterned. On the micro-sociology dimension, social structure is ...

Hate Crimes: Definitions and Introduction

A “hate crime” are “criminal actions intended to harm or intimidate people because of their race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, religion or other minority group status,” as listed in the works of Herek (1989) and Levin and McDevitt (1993). In the 1990s, the issue of hate crimes, or “bias crimes,” has generated rising attention from activists, policy makers, and social analysts. Much of the amplified concern has displayed an inference in that all criminal activities have adverse impacts for the victim, bias crimes must be considered as a unique case owing to their heightened effects on the victim of the ...

Illegal Downloads I believe the practice of illegal downloads is another form of stealing. The way I see it, is that you’re taking something produced by someone else without pay or asking permission, which is equivalent to stealing. Many of us do illegal music downloads. It’s a common activity people do because they don’t want to spend hundreds of dollars just to get the latest song. I’ll be honest; I used to do illegal downloads, until one day I read an article of a woman arrested from the illegal downloading. She ended up paying for ...

Some may also know that Doctor Who, and was featured in two cinema films and one made-for-television movie.

Philosophy

Compare and contrast the concepts of determinism, compatibilism and libertarinism as outlined in chapter 4. What are the weaknesses and strengths of each of these positions? Which one do you believe is the most likely to be correct? Why? Determinism is a term that was coined in the 19th Century to explain causal law in the motion of atoms in structures. Today it is a philosophy that is believed to be metaphysical because it uses laws of physics to explain sociological phenomena. This philosophy is based on the premise that in order for something to happen there must be ...

Cloning

1.0 Historical Background During mammalian reproduction, the sperm fuses with the egg. During this process, both the egg and the sperm contribute half of the genetic material resulting into a genetically unique individual. On the other hand, cloning involves the development of an organism or cell that has identical genetic materials to the parent. Thus cloning can be defined as producing a copy of DNA, cell or organism asexually. This definition is not a clear reflection of what people considers cloning to be thus raising perennial and heated debate on the ethics and morals of cloning. However, it worth ...

Executive Summary

Real estate management has traditionally played a major, albeit little appreciated, role in all organisations. With escalating real estate prices in most world economies, the role played by this department should be even more pronounced. This should be especially so in light of the fact that but for personnel, no other factor is costlier than real estate. From the aforesaid, it is a cinch that proper management of real estate with a view to reducing costs can and should lead to significant reduction of operating costs of a firm. Non-profit organisations are especially under pressure ...

The enthymeme “e-Marketing should be included as a marketing and sales strategy in business because if offers more efficient techniques than traditional marketing” (Kwon, “e-Marketing,” 1) helped determine the organization of my essay by setting forth the deduction I was arguing and focusing my argument on the right subjects.

My minor premise, stated, was that e-marketing is more efficient than traditional marketing. My major premise is not controversial so I spent a great portion of ...

1. Rock musicians are contributing to the decline of language by singing in a slurred, mumbling manner. 1. The premise of this statement is that all rock musicians sing in a slurred, mumbling manner, and also the hidden premise that singing in a slurred, mumbling manner will lead to the decline of language.

Deidre Sklar published her commentary “Five Premises for a Culturally Sensitive Approach to Dance” to provide premises as to why dance, as a form of art, is imbued with cultural values. The five premises include the following: “movement knowledge is a kind of cultural knowledgeis conceptual and emotional as well as kinesthetic,” and “intertwined with other kinds of cultural knowledge,” getting the meaning of dance requires looking “beyond movement,” and “movement is always an immediate corporeal experience” (Sklar).

Term Paper: Jean Jacques Rousseau vs. John Locke

Economic inequality is a menace that has been witnessed in the developing and the developed nations since ancient times. Legislation regarding the ownership of property has drawn heated criticism from various scholars and human rights activists. John Locke and Jean-Jacques Rousseau are among the activists who have expressed strong ideas concerning the issue of ownership of private property. John in the Second Treaties of Government takes a soft stance. He defends the natural right of acquiring private property despite the economic inequalities that the move bears to the people of the nation. John’s stance on the matter has ...

Indeed, the Prince is a seminal treatise on governance and the concept of the nation state. In the treatise, Machiavelli provides an illuminating conception of the state and governance.

The brief of this paper shall be to briefly examine Machiavelli’s view of political power and by extension assess whether the Prince is an immoral text. While the former task requires a discussion, the latter ...

Abstract

The hippocampus is a part of the limbic system found in the temporal lobe. Hippocampal neurogenesis, the ability of the hippocampus to generate/produce new neurons all through to adulthood, has been linked to emotion moderation, spatial navigation, learning, memory, and cognitive function. These functions are usually impaired in depression and anxiety and hence the speculations that hippocampal neurogenesis plays a critical role in the etiology, pathophysiology and even the treatment depression and anxiety. The hippocampal neurogenesis hypothesis attempts to explain the role of hippocampal neurogenesis in the development of depression and anxiety based on findings from various studies. Findings ...

Introduction: Explaining Nationalism

Nationalism provides for an underlying concept explaining the organization of humanity. Normally, nationalism bases its definition on the importance of a shared system of beliefs and heritage that characterize different forms of identities. As the world itself is diverse in geography and living conditions, it is inevitable for people across the globe to coalesce with one another based on the sameness and coherence of their consciousness and experiences. Along the way, they develop a closer sense of identity the more they find themselves affected by a certain event, particularly those whose landmark effects have enabled ...

Introduction

Autonomy, defined as “self-directing freedom and especially moral independence” (Merriam-Webster, 2013), is a concept that encompasses human rationality. It is a notion that has strong linkages to the idea of freedom, although those definitions have different concepts based on various perspectives. Notwithstanding the variations, autonomy is a feature that characterizes the freethinking nature of humans. With freethinking comes openness to accept any possibilities that could emerge as consequences to particular actions thought autonomously. ...

The basic premise behind Director Judd Apatow’s comedy, The 40-Year-Old Virgin, is obvious from its title: its main character, Andy (Steve Carell), is still a virgin and his friends at work want to help him remedy that “problem” by attempting various schemes to help him lose his virginity. As with other comedies, Andy experiences many pitfalls, embarrassing moments, and humiliating situations before finally marrying an understanding woman, Trish (Catherine Keener), and having his first sexual encounter with her. A good comedy is difficult to make, but because the directing and acting in the movie is superb, The 40-Year-Old ...

1.0 Introduction For an act to be deemed as criminal attempt, the perpetrator must express the intent to commit an act whose result would constitute a crime and take considerable steps towards attaining his goal. For as far back as the 14th century, historians have scattered evidence that there was punishment for attempted felony if there was serious harm incurred in the course of the perpetration of crime. Attempt cases involving coin money, dueling and threats were punished by the Court of Star Chambers in England in the 16th century. It took years for the law to come up ...

The New York State introduced a provision in the budgetary legislation (New York Labor Law) that in essence sought to increase the minimum wage just above the current federal minimum wage.

Currently, the approach according to the legislation is that commencing December 31st 2013, the minimum wage shall be $8.00 per hour.

Social Responsibility: The case of Bank of America’s Expansion

Introduction

With the emergence of the global world, businesses the world over have been compelled to offer competitive services.

It is on this premise that this paper seeks to recommend for the Bank of America’s expansion into the international financial arena and more specifically to the BRICS nations which have been confirmed as having ...

1. Outline the categories of violence as described by Jamil Salmi.

According to Salmi, the phenomenon of violence has many characteristics, with particular causes per characteristic and with particular causational agents per cause. Violence also exists in several forms, including direct violence, indirect violence, repressive violence, and alienating violence.

Direct violence is characterized by any physical, in-person act causing intended harm. In this category would be included A) any act resulting in death (homicide, genocide, infanticide); and B) any “coercive or brutal” (Module 6, 44) at threatening or resulting in physical or psychological damage or suffering—including rape, spousal abuse, political imprisonment, for example.

Indirect violence is characterized by ...

The police are sworn to serve and to protect fundamental human rights by ensuring that the criminal justice system plays its primary role in upholding justice. Police attempt to accomplish this goal by investigating, interpreting and communicating this information. This series, while often leading police to correct conclusions, is at its essence a process easily influenced by subjective forces, which ultimately have the ability to effect the cognitive abilities of police officers and creating biases. Unfortunately, as a result, justice is not always upheld because cognitive biases in decision-making have led to the abuse of human rights and the ...

Abstract

The strong abilities of Romans to manipulate their physical environment via the development and use of strong military forces has led them to acquire several tracts of land across Europe, with its end as the Roman Empire having become memorable in scholarly works due to its sheer expanse. The magnanimity of the Roman Empire is perhaps best measured by the largeness of its territorial acquisitions. This study finds that the strong military forces of Rome has enabled it to two more consequential forms of physical manipulation – the slaughter of many people supporting Roman rivals and the systemic acquisition of ...

Cooper in, “Applying the Design Approach to Public Administrative Ethics” and in “the Conclusion” examines the application of ethics in public administration. On the other hand, Gawthrop in, The Moral Dimension of Democracy, examines the application of morals and ethical frameworks in the secular societies. The two authors in one sense look at the separation of the moral from the legal. In one way, the message communicated in their arguments is that while morality may not necessarily be legal, it is necessarily for purposes of complimenting the law. This line of argument restates the initial one by Cooper as ...

The observation is a study of altruistic behavior of adults toward strangers. One goal in the study is to determine if the presence of an audience motivates a person to be charitable. Hudson and Bruckman (2004) theorized an individual of a particular personality will respond more to the opportunity to participate in a charitable contribution if others are aware of the donation. This may be evidenced in a donation when the plate is passed n church when a person feels others are watching. Some religious organizations include an envelope to conceal the amount of the donation. In this way, ...
