1. Is Patrick lonely? In my opinion‚ I feel as though the boy is lonely‚ living in such a remote and desolate place‚ with only his father to spend his time with.

In the school atlas the place is pale green and nameless. The river slips out of an unnamed lake…” (10-11). Patrick’s characteristics makes him

They stated that everything was in perspective‚ and that humanity needed to study what is closer to them‚ whether it was psychology or phenomenology. The only things Descartes figured out were that he had a reason to doubt and that math and science could help him understand

I do not believe that when Erasmus speaks of how to read the Bible that is talking in the same way that Luther promotes sola Scriptura. This is because sola Scriptura means through scripture alone‚ thus all biblical knowledge comes from the Bible. Erasmus on the other hand promotes dedication to the study of the Bible‚ but also suggests reading other written works whether from pagans or philosophers.

After watching 1976’s Best Picture nominees‚ I can now conclude that it seemed like a good year for film. I chose that year to focus on‚ because there were several movies that I have always wanted to see but never got the chance. For the most part‚ I liked the films. Two of them‚ I thought‚ were masterpieces. Another two were good. Lastly‚ one was subpar‚ but that’s to be expected. I absolutely loved Network. I thought the ensemble’s performances were amazing. Faye Dunaway’s performance in the movie

Mengzi’s mentor was actually Kongzi; therefore there are similarities between these two philosophers. Both Kongzi and Mengzi both discuss what it means to be a good person as well as the essentials of human happiness. Although both Kongzi and Mengzi share similar ideas‚ their interpretations of goodness and human happiness differ. Kongzi’s interpretation of goodness is determined by a person’s wisdom. On the other hand‚ Mengzi discusses goodness based off of a person’s actions. According to Kongzi
