trasher [3.6K]3 years ago

The correct answer is the following.

In Thoreau’s view, the ethical responsibility of a government to a minority population is to protect them. The government administration should be effective and valuable. It had to respond to the necessities of the majority population.  

Henry David Thoreau wrote the essay <em>“Resistance to Civil Government (Civil Disobedience)</em> in 1849. The essay makes an invitation to citizens to never allow government authorities to step into their rights and taint their consciousness. Citizens should never allow the government to commit injustices.

How do people use rhetoric to advance their cause? ​
fgiga [73]

Answer:

People use rhetoric when they try to persuade others to agree  with a particular thing. The way they go about conveying the information

Explanation:

The way the information is presented will determine how the speaker/author wants someone to feel or think. For instance if you are talking about a particular thing you did over the weekend, you more than likely would talk about it differently to a friend as opposed to an aunt and even differently if it were your boss.  All of the things you say can be accurate , but you make strategic choices about which details to include or not include based on the in your discussion.

Identify two scenarios from your life – one in which you broke a promise and one in which you told a lie. Apply each moral theor
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

1. I broke my promise of buying my younger one an Ice-cream when she recovered from her illness. I rather bought her a toy.

2. I lied about not knowing the whereabouts of a man who was to be punished for belonging to a particular religion.

Explanation:

1. The moral theory of utilitarianism will justify the first scenario. This theory states that an action or policy is right if it maximizes happiness or results in the greater good of society. The action I took in the first case resulted in the greater good of my sister because a cup of ice cream would not be healthy for her who was just recovering from an illness. Therefore, that decision was for her greater good.

2. The Deontology theory that states that having a morally justifiable intent is better than obtaining the right results will justify my action. For me, it was not morally right that a man should be punished for his religion and that superseded telling the truth about the man's whereabouts.
