Humanities Homework Help

Choose one topic for your
initial post.  Copy and paste the question at the top of your response (this
does not count toward the total word count).

• Relativism: Consider an element of your culture’s
  social code that other cultures have criticized. Describe this to your group. Is
  this based on an objective moral standard, or a subjective culturally-developed
  value?  Response posts (RPs) should discuss whether this element is objective or
  subjective and why.

• Egoism: Explain the idea of “us and them” that is
  created by ethical egoism. What problems occur when we divide people into these
  categories? Responses posts (RPs) should point out what problems have been
  overlooked in the initial post (IP) and add material; avoid basic agreement and
  reiterating the IPs points.

  .  Do you feel that political figures in the
  United States struggle with pragmatism? Support your stance with theory and
  current events. RPs should effectively support
  agreement or disagreement.
