    Q2: 2A. Las Casas was located in the New World, more specifically, on an island where natives were enslaved by the Spaniards.

    Fidelity does not necessarily mean that everything written in the Constitution word for word is exactly correct. Fidelity does still have to leave some room for interpretation of the document. Not all parts of it are made clear so one has to interpret. The key to fidelity is that when interpreting the Constitution the individual doing so must do it in regards to what the rest of the document says. If the interpretation does not line up with the rest of the Constitution, it does not portray fidelity. The following statement in Meese’s essay backs fidelity quite well, “Where the language of the Constitution is specific, it must be obeyed. Where there is a demonstrable consensus among the framers and ratifiers as to a principle stated or…

    The method of skeptical inquiry or way by which Pyrrhonian skeptics bring themselves to withhold assent to every non evident proposition is known as the modes of suspension of judgment.

(Empiricus, 165–169) The modes are designed to assist Pyrrhonian skeptics in in continuing their inquiry by guarding themselves from the disquieting state of dogmatism. For the sake of argument, suppose there is a dogmatist who believes that P. In order to avoid the snares of dogmatism, the Pyrrhonian skeptic would resort to withhold assent about P.

According to Lisa Lange, senior vice president of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals has said “Change is already happening around the world.” For example, she mentioned Mexico, Spain and the U.S. have banned things to do with the exploitation of animals, such as animal circuses, bull fighting and the bullhook for training elephants.

I believe the voting rights for prisoners and ex-convicts should be reformed and changed in the State of Texas. The reason I stand by this is because they’re still citizens of the United States of America.…
