The death penalty is a fair punishment
Rough Draft Revision 1
Death penalty should not be abolished since it has been proven to effectively deter crimes. Although the anti-death penalty groups believe that death is a grave punishment because the calculated killing of a human being by the State is considered as a denial of the executed person’s humanity and the right to life (Mandery 167). Some lawmakers believe that death penalty is cruel and degrading which is in violation of the Eighth and Fourteenth Amendments. However, several crimes have been committed nowadays without due regard to respect for human ...

In ancient societies, people believed that the hierarchy of human society was based on the divine right of certain people to lead and the divine permission to keep others as lower class members of society. This shamed the parameters of social order until the Age of Enlightenment and Reformation in the 16th and 17th Centuries. The American and French Revolutions laid the foundation for the creation of a system of civil liberties and human rights which required some basic rights to be accorded to all human beings without exception. Human rights is defined as “a set of freedoms guaranteed ...

According to Albert Camus in his work The Myth of Sisyphus, man is engaged in a futile search for meaning, as the world itself is completely devoid of significant and universal truths. He compares life to the myth of Sisyphus, the Greek figure who was doomed to roll a boulder up a mountain, only to never reach the top. Instead of giving up and embracing oblivion, however, Camus believes that "The struggle itselfis enough to fill a man's heart. One must imagine Sisyphus happy" (Camus 1955, PAGE). Sisyphus becomes the embodiment of Camus’ absurd hero – a man who attempts to persevere in a world that ...

Abortion Under this neutral, it would seem, short word, there is hiding the real human tragedy, crime, and simply put, murder. Yes, it is a murder indeed, an attempt on the life of a small, completely innocent person. Whatever attempts to justify this act: financial situation, the circumstances, etc., they still do not remove responsibility for infanticide.

People are very complicated creatures. It is hard to say where they come from, what rules they obey and what final point they go to. However, some writers and scientists have made a couple of attempts to understand what are the reasons and purposes of people`s behaviour and some of their deeds. Mark Twain is one of those people who were trying to judge people and highlight the morals they use in their lives. He studied the traits and dispositions of the “lower animals” and of people using the scientific method (Twain 179) He stated his attitude towards ...

The conditions highlighted in the book have many causes. The public was responsible for some of the things that were happening to them. It is their greed that led to unscrupulous behavior where people had to take things from an individual before the same was done to them. The public helped form this culture. During the wedding of the immigrants, people take their beer and food without paying, yet nobody does anything to stop it (Sinclair, 2). In the factories, they are paid poorly and treated unfairly but they still wake up to go to work. The public is ...

The Nazis’ desire to purify the German nation turned out to be a tragedy for all non-Aryan people. The people considered “different” were penalized not only by concentrations camps but morally as well. All minorities that did not match Nazi criteria of “purity” were treated severely in concentration camps, however the distinctive place in the Nazis’ racial policy belonged to homosexuals. Homosexuality was a criminal offense in Germany as early as 1871, under section 175 of the Criminal Code of the German Empire so the system of Nazi persecution of homosexuals did not appear out of nowhere. And yet, before the ...

1). “The common idea that success spoils people by making them vain, egotistical and self-complacent is erroneous; on the contrary, it makes them , for the most part, humble, tolerant and kind. Failure makes people bitter and cruel.” (Maugham).
Response: I agree with this quote that it is a mistake to believe that success can make a person “vain, egotistical and self-complacent.” I believe that the most successful people are also the most humble. I believe that success tempers the qualities of being driven and passionate along with humility. Being successfully teaches us to know when to listen and when to ...
