taken for granted in our society” (Singer‚ 1972). His goal here is to persuade people that everyone‚ including the government‚ need to help with famine relief‚ and how we deal with such disasters now is “morally unjustified”. (Singer‚ 1972) Singer supports his argument when he brings up the scenario of a child drowning. We would have a duty to save the child to prevent the child from dying. If we were to just watch the child drown it would be morally incorrect. Singer looks at it as it doesn’t matter

“Animal Liberation” Singer compares the past acts of liberation to animal liberation and how they are not equal. Peter Singer compares women’s rights and black rights to animal rights. Some in which most people think have no comparison at all. Singer expresses how people may not think highly of animal rights because they are not humans. Singer expressed how other sociologist and psychologist view this to be the same way. I mean why not? We test most human things on animals. Singer introduces betham’s

5/17/11 English 302 Matthew Falloon The Singer Solution to World Poverty: Response I find Singer’s essay to be very thought provoking. Although I disagree with Singer’s rationality‚ I think his ideas about people’s priorities are completely correct. Singer does a good job of putting those priorities and real necessities of life into perspective. I like the amount of pressure Singer puts on the reader to donate money‚ and the reasons he uses to support that pressure. The first part

Teacher assigns an essay on the symbolic values of the color green? No problem. Physics lab report due the next day? I’ll get it done. Using scalar multiplication to do something strange to vectors? Might take some blood‚ sweat and tears. This became a huge problem in Pre-Calculus. Math has always been hard from me and once the alphabet snuck its way in with the

equality in his paper ‘All Animals are Equal’ deserves to be taken more seriously than it often is. What I try to do is identify Singer’s essential argument and then defend it against some objections I have come across. The ‘irrelevance argument’ Singer begins by assuming that the ‘principle of equality’ or ‘principle of equal consideration of interests’ is a basic moral principle. The principle says ‘treat all people as equals’‚ meaning ‘give equal consideration to the interests of all people’‚

Only 5% of adults use calculus in America. Kids in our society are forced to learn some things that they should not be forced to learn. People in our society think that students need to learn a bunch of stuff that they do not need to learn. Kids do not need to learn some things they are made to learn. Almost all of the kids don’t use a lot of things that they learn in school. For example in my family my parents or anyone for that matter almost uses no algebra. Yet they spent years of their

The lost art of singer/song writing – is there a place for it in today’s pop music? In 2008‚ the British singer Adele sang “Make You Feel My Love”. The release charted at number 4 in the UK; and has little over 52 million views on Youtube. In 1997‚ Bob Dylan wrote a song named “Make You Feel My Love” which didn’t chart. In today’s popular music‚ it is clear that the art of song writing is not held in the same esteem as it was in decades prior to now. Popular performers for today’s masses only
