(As long as you don't harm others, you should be allowed to do as you wish.)<br /><br />DQ: Do you agree with the notion of the Harm Principle, and is it really possible to uphold such a standard when sometimes violence is "necessary" in order to prevent greater acts of violence? Is it acceptable to allow other people to harm themselves since the Harm Principle doesn't prohibit harm directed at oneself? What kind of harm are we talking about, only physical or is emotional harm a legitimate form as well?<br /><br />LINK: (on the Harm Principle) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z03OXBbLr40Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09616854196564747418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2619743764213415433.post-1259962632471435052014-04-06T19:35:11.342-05:002014-04-06T19:35:11.342-05:00I don't believe that we evolved from Gorillas,...I don't believe that we evolved from Gorillas, Monkeys, etc. Genesis could even be wrong about how man first came about in God's creation, but if it is I still don't believe we formed from other creators. I can't prove it, neither do I have any evidence it's just my opinion. We got here some kind of way. I just don't believe through evolution; Maybe if we did someone will soon one day prove it. Until then I believe we were created as humans from the beginning whether it be from God or another way. My belief is we were human from the start of life, not monkeys.Shante'https://www.blogger.com/profile/01335767646713071857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2619743764213415433.post-67372128836621466932014-04-06T18:36:50.067-05:002014-04-06T18:36:50.067-05:00LH: Space to Grow, John Stuart Mills:

It was keep from the outside world of playing. his father keep him studying and learning constantly. He said that it was the best way to raise a child. His opinion only, he got lucky that his son John turned out to be a genius instead of a psycho.<br />Mills later decided that Bentham way of happiness was not in his interest. Reading over playing as being a state of happy pleasures Mills stated in so many words, so he came up with is way of happy Harm Principle. <br />My opinion he thought about his dad using Bentham method and keep him from a childhood. I'm just saying my opinion. I would have went crazy. <br /><br />DQ: Do you agree with Mills dad on keeping a child isolated from their peers just to raise he/she to be intelligent, or a genius?<br /><br />FQ: What did Mills say we society should like each person do rather than to force them to conform with one way of living?

Charles Darwin is a name many of us know, but this chapter really helped me further understand the man behind the name. His theory was the theory of evolution, or evolution through natural selection. This theory is known as one of the best ideas anyone has had ever. Charles Darwin grew up bouncing around from occupation to occupation until he went on a voyage to an island where he discovered the differences between certain species of animals. This discovery lead to his theory of evolution. Many people choose not to believe his theory because it completely rocks the foundation of Christianity and many other religions. What some people do not know is that he had no intentions of causing problems with religious beliefs. He stated that he had no business in claiming wether or not there was a god. He was just a scientist who discovered an incredible idea. I personally like to believe in the idea of evolution, but I am unaware of every aspect of the theory so I do not stand by. With that said I do believe that Darwin was a great man and scientist who should be respected for his ideas rather than criticized. <br /><br />FQ: What island did Darwin collect most of his samples on? Galapagos<br /><br />FQ:What was the name of the ship that Darwin traveled on on his voyage? The Beagle <br /><br />DQ: What is your opinion on the theory of Evolution?
