The American Dream 2
... in life; the goals Americans set for themselves is the part of the dream that has changed. Like a new piece of shining, metallic silver, the dream began with an unselfish goal which all the first Americans craved. Their dream was freedom. In the beginning, all Americans wanted freedom, but as the civilization's standards declined, their priorities changed.

The Advantages Of Stupidity
... Life isn't
a bowl of cherries. And being stupid doesn't make it any
fruitier. Being stupid can annoy even the most sensitive
people. If one acts stupid, and does it in the wrong crowd,
like a group of adults, it will seem more immature than
funny. If one is forced to act stupid while dealing with
lower life forms, for example, high school teachers, one may
encounter barriers such as cruelty and insensitivity, with
the utterance of statements like, "Think with your head
straight!" or, "You have a brain, use it." Yet these are
all true, there are still many advantages to stupidity. ...

Conversation Of The Huron’s
... acknowledged every creation and saw
their dreams as being gateways to the communication of the spirit world.
Questions would soon arise about how far off Indian beliefs were from the
Christian system. The Jesuits would go on to have debates, over whether to
leave the Indian religion only adding to it, or to force its abandonment.
Later it was decided that the pure Christian creed could sacrifice a meager
portion and the Jesuits could continue to only add onto the Huron’s beliefs.
One obstacle had been overcome but many more were to follow. Perhaps the
biggest being the language barrier between the two. The Jes ...

Relativism: The Tangible Theory
... the different cultures that make up the population as a whole.
The idea of universal truth in ethics, is a myth. The customs of different
societies are all that exist. These customs can not be ‘correct' or ‘
incorrect' for that implies there is an independent standard of right and wrong
by which they may be judged. In today's global community people are
interacting more and we are now discovering, more then ever, how diverse
cultures and people really are. For these reasons the Cultural Relativist
theory best defines what morality is, and where it came from.
Today all over the world peopl ...

Pythagoras Of Samos
... either of the traditional views. The union of mathematical genius and mysticism is commonly enough. Originally from Samos, Pythagoras founded at Kroton (in southern Italy) a society, which were at once a religious community and a scientific school.

It is stated that he was a disciple of Anaximander, his astronomy was the natural development of Anaximander's. Also, the way in which the Pythagorean geometry developed also bears witness to its descent from ...

Risk Taking
... we make this distinction, however, it is necessary to define the
terms acceptable and unacceptable risks.
Acceptable and Unacceptable Risks
There are several ways in which one could define which risks are
acceptable. One could say, for example, that the only acceptable risk is one
for which the odds of success are greater than the odds of failure. Another
definition of acceptable risk might be a risk that does not harm one's future.
We might also say that the only acceptable risk is one where the aggregate
happiness is increased, thus increasing the moral good of the risk, an idea
which is based on J ...
