7 0

Answer:

The correct answer is to inspire readers with a story about kindness.

Explanation:

The aim of the author in <em>Dwaina Brooks</em> is to inspire the reader through the tenderness of Dwaina.

She, being a girl, watched people homeless or in shelters, and wanted to help in some way. She knew she couldn't give them a home or a job so she decided to start cooking for them. Soon her whole class began to help too.

<u>This shows the kindness and tenderness of a girl too young, who is an example of inspiration</u>.

Which part of this passage is an example of ridicule?
marta [7]

Despite the lack of a passage in this question, it is still possible to identify the option containing a subject of <em>ridicule.</em>


The correct answer is: Squealer calls the other animals ignorant.


"To ridicule" means to perform an action that undermines the reputation of someone or something in order to make them/it seem foolish. This is accomplished in the sentence as the subject, Squealer, humiliates the object, the other animals, by calling them "ignorant".

Should religious belief influence law,five paragraph argument.
konstantin123 [22]

Explanation:

Whatever we make of the substance of Judge Andrew Rutherford's ruling in the Cornish private hotel case, his citation of a striking and controversial opinion by Lord Justice Laws – delivered in another religious freedom case in 2010 – is worth pausing over. The owners of the Chymorvah hotel were found to have discriminated against a gay couple by refusing them a double-bedded room. They had appealed to their right to manifest their religious belief by running their hotel according to Christian moral standards. Given the drift of recent legal judgments in cases where equality rights are thought to clash with religious freedom rights, it is no surprise that the gay couple won their case.

But quite apart from the merits of the case, judges should be warned off any future reliance on the ill-considered opinions about law and religion ventured last year by Lord Justice Laws. Laws rightly asserted that no law can justify itself purely on the basis of the authority of any religion or belief system: "The precepts of any one religion – any belief system – cannot, by force of their religious origins, sound any louder in the general law than the precepts of any other."

A sound basis for this view is Locke's terse principle, in his Letter on Toleration, that "neither the right nor the art of ruling does necessarily carry with it the certain knowledge of other things; and least of all the true religion".

But Laws seemed to ground the principle instead on two problematic and potentially discriminatory claims. One is that the state can only justify a law on the grounds that it can be seen rationally and objectively to advance the general good (I paraphrase). The question is, seen by whom? What counts as rational, objective and publicly beneficial is not at all self-evident but deeply contested, determined in the cut and thrust of democratic debate and certainly not by the subjective views of individual judges. Religiously inspired political views – such as those driving the US civil rights movement of the 1960s or the Burmese Buddhists today – have as much right to enter that contest as any others. In this sense law can quite legitimately be influenced by religion.

Laws' other claim is that religious belief is, for all except the holder, "incommunicable by any kind of proof or evidence", and that the truth of it "lies only in the heart of the believer". But many non-Christians, for example, recognise that at least some of the claims of Christianity – historical ones, no doubt, or claims about universal moral values – are capable of successful communication to and critical assessment by others. Laws' assertion is also inconsistent with his own Anglican tradition, in which authority has never been seen as based on the subjective opinions of the individual but rather on the claims of "scripture, tradition and reason" acting in concert.
