2. How would you argue against Aristotle’s defense of Natural slavery? Did he make false assumptions? Were his arguments illogic
larisa [96]

Answer: Natural slavery is inhumane and degrading.

Explanation:

Although natural slavery seems like it makes sense for a constructive society and Aristotle thought that slaves needed their masters to survive because they were so helpless, he was generalizing and his argument is flawed when most of the slaves who were freed in the 1900s could survive well on their own. I think I can argue against Aristotles arguements for natural slavery because his assumption is that slaves were lesser, more inferior humans or tools. I can disprove these by the obvious mistreatment these slaves were put through like: their owner hitting them or starving them. People who were slaves could not marry or raise children without their owner’s permission. And their owner could sell them or their children at any time.

The Sumerians believed that their gods were the cause of the sometimes frightening, unpredictable workings of nature.

There were temples in Sumer and Sumerians believed that the rivers flooding every year were the work of the gods.  There were over 3000 gods that Sumerians believed in. Of course there would be many powerful nature gods. Back in the old Sumer days, scientific reasoning was not a thing. People believed that gods caused natural disasters because they were angry.
