How might a utilitarian person respond to the magistrate and the mob?

History

“Utilitarian person” (someone who subscribes to Utilitarianism), but, as Jeremy Bentham (the father of Utilitarianism) often pointed out, Utilitarianism is a very general theory and does not necessarily proscribe any sort of application (this is usually where people get into trouble). Thus, while I can offer my analysis of the case of the Magistrate and the Mob, it cannot be said to be the single Utilitarian view, because Utilitarianism is a guiding principle in evaluating answers, not a panacea

What was the point of difference between the two sects of Jainism​
galina1969 [7]
Jains are divided into two major sects; the Digambara (meaning sky clad) sect and the Svetambara (meaning white clad) sect. Each of these sects is also divided into subgroups.

The two sects agree on the basics of Jainism, but disagree on:

-details of the life of Mahavira
-the spiritual status of women
-whether monks should wear clothes
-rituals
-which texts should be accepted as scripture

The Digambara sect is more austere, and is closer in its ways to the Jains at the time of Mahavira.

Differences between Svetambara and Digambara:

Both groups accept the basic Jain philosophy and the five basic vows. The philosophical differences between the groups mostly affect monks and nuns, or the very pious.

Scripture:

Digambaras and Svetambaras disagree as to which books constitute Jain scripture.

Women:

Digambaras believe that women cannot achieve liberation without first being reborn as a man.

This is because:

women cannot live a truly ascetic life, because they have to possess clothes since it is impractical for them to live naked
women are intrinsically harmful
Jinas

Digambaras believe that the Jinas:

have no bodily functions
live without food
do not act in the world
Dress and possessons

Digambara monk Digambara monks live completely naked
Digambara monks live completely naked. This is because Digambaras believe that one can only lead the life of a true monk:

-by having no worldly possessions
-by demonstrating indifference to earthly emotions such as shame

Nuns of both groups are clothed.

Digambara monks are not allowed any possessions, not even begging bowls and so can only receive gifts in their cupped hands.

Svetambara monks can have a few possessions:

-simple white clothing
-a begging bowl
-a brush to remove insects from their path
-books and writing materials
-images

Digambara images of tirthankaras have downcast eyes
Svetambara images have prominent staring eyes
Digambara images are plain (and always carved as naked figures)
Svetambara images are richly decorated
Worship

Terapanth Digambara worship is simpler than Svetambara worship.

Does Lewis think that JFK has been supportive of the civil rights movement?
Serhud [2]
I'm going to suppose that your reference point is the "We Must Free Ourselves" speech given by John Lewis in 1963 at the March on Washington.  The simple answer to the question is that Lewis did not think President Kennedy and the federal government had given genuine support to the civil rights movement.  Lewis was even forced by the Kennedy administration to edit his speech because the initial draft was so strongly critical of the administration.  Let me quote you a section from the draft of the speech that Lewis was pressured to drop before actually giving the speech.

Mr. Kennedy is trying to take the revolution out of the street and put it in the courts.  Listen, Mr. Kennedy, listen, Mr. congressman, listen fellow citizens, the black masses are on the march for jobs and freedom, and we must say to the politicians that there won’t be a “cooling-off” period.  <span>We won’t stop now.
</span>
In the speech which Lewis did give, he pointed criticism at JFK in a less direct way, saying that the party of Kennedy was the also the party of Eastland.  James Eastland was a Democratic senator from Mississippi who was staunchly opposed to the civil rights movement. 

John Lewis called on black citizens to stand up for their own rights, because the political leaders could not (and some would not) do so for them.

concentric zone theory states that an urban area may have many development centers that meet different needs True or False
kotykmax [81]
This statement is false.

The theory that states, as the question states, that there are many development centers that are there to meet different needs is not the Concentric Zone Theory but the <span>Multiple Nuclei Theory. The Concentric Zone Theory uses concentric rings to explain how the urban land is used.
