by | Nov 25, 2022 | Philosophy homework help

  a world religion will consider the similarities between Christianity and other world religions such as Hinduism, Buddhism, Mormonism, Islam, Baha’i, Judaism, or Taoism. It will seek to answer the question of whether the similarities are significant or not.  It will include a biography of the person who started the religion, an overview of their teachings, how those teachings are similar to and different from Christianity, and an explanation of whether the similarities and differences affect whether both religions could be true.

Your WIT, What Do I Think, is short, reflective work.  Each WIT is to exhibit your critical analysis skills, your organizational skills for writing,  and your creative thinking skills.  You will write a 2-3 page reflection for each WIT.  Please double-space and use a 12-point font size. It is also necessary to cite the text or any source you draw upon as you complete the WIT assignment.  It is best to complete your WIT after engagement with the text material for each chapter.
For this WIT, you will use the “Analyzing Images” piece on page 155.  After thoroughly and carefully examining the advertisement:
Identify the logical fallacies within the ad;
Give examples of these fallacies within the ad; and 
Explain why these examples exhibit fallacious logic.  
Finally, comment on why the advertising company relied upon these particular fallacies to sell its product.  What was the intended impact?

You will complete one Forum for each Lesson.  Each Forum will be worth 30 points.  You will receive 20 points for your original forum post and 5 points for your two peer posts.  For the original post, I expect two good paragraphs, a good paragraph being 8-12 sentences with unity, coherence, and authentic reflection.  Your two peer posts should be one good paragraph each.  
Assignment Directions:
In this forum, talk about an issue that is near and dear to your heart.  Being as formal and as logical as you can, create a two-paragraph argument that we can follow that will help us to understand your belief in the issue.  Even though this issue is important to you, aim to be as objective as possible.  Remember, too, to be respectful of those in the class who may have views that differ from your own.
When you are finished typing your argument (and before you post it), click on “Use Advanced Editor” underneath your posting.  Then, go back through your posting and: 1) underline the premises of your argument; and 2) highlight your conclusion in bold.  
Finally, at the end of your posting, type a few sentences that comment on your argument.  Does the conclusion seem to logically follow from the premises?  Are there any logical holes or fallacies in your argument?  How might you improve your argument?
*When you reply to your classmates, please remain objective and focus on the logical strength of their arguments rather than reflexively reacting to their views per se.
For “A” work in your Forum, did you
Write two full paragraphs (a full paragraph being at least 8-12 sentences) for your original post?
Write one full paragraph for each of your two peer replies?
Proofread your writing to make sure it is unified and coherent?
Revise your writing to make sure it is free of grammatical errors that detract and distract from your ideas and thoughts?
Respond with sincerity and civility?
Speak from an authentic and interesting voice?

Instructions
SOCIAL PHILOSOPHY and
ETHICS — The Elite (VIPs) vs. The
Masses
Consider:
Who should a society support and champion
The Elite: the champions, the famous, the rich, the
powerful, the people who get things done, who
runs and change society (for better or worse).. In
other words: the fittest (the 1%);
OR
The Masses: the common folks, the multitude, the
profusion, the crowds, including the 51% of
people in America on some sort of social relief.
This questions colors and valuates much of
the decisions we make as a society; it is past time
to identify where we as individuals stand.
This question is the root of:
Republicans vs. Democrats
Bourgeoisie vs. Proletariat
Capitalist vs Socialist
Haves vs. Have-
Nots
“To be is to do”,
-Socrates.
“To do is to be”
‘-Jean-Paul Sartre.
“Do be do be do”.
‘_Frank Sinatra.
(Had to put that in here)
Anyhow, here is the topic you will argue:
Inquiry: Should survival of the fittest be the law
of the land?
Or should a
society support the weak?
REQUIREMENTs:
