How do McCarthy’s references to Abraham Lincoln at the beginning and end of his speech support his argument?

History

Helga [31]3 years ago

McCarthy is trying to win the audience to his viewpoint straightaway by inducing  one of America's most loved presidents of all times.Once you have drawn the attention of your audience,they are going to listen to you to the end of your speech hopefully.

As we celebrate the birth of this man who with his whole heart and soul hated war, I would like to be able to speak of peace in our time, of war being outlawed, and of world-wide disarmament.

And because that day was the birthday of Abraham Lincoln,it was very apt to mention Abraham's name as he always championed for disarmament and no war policies and wanted peace and prosperity for all.

Why might some of the philosophers idea be. A threat to Greek tradition? Give me a short sentence ty
andriy [413]

Answer:

Some of the philosopher's theories could be contrary to Greek tradition since they do not follow the dictates of the gods.

Explanation:

Greeks were Pagans, thus philosophers and scientists who had rational ideas were in danger as the centuries changed. They looked for logical answers as opposed to anthropomorphic gods as the creators of the world.

Why should ancient philosophers’ ideas matter in today's world?

It doesn't matter if they should or shouldn't; the reality is that they do.

Here are some of the concepts that, dating back to the Greeks, have influenced the development of philosophy and civilisation (more generally) in the modern and current eras:

  • Parmenides: Being: an unchangeable, immutable, continuous reality.
  • Heraclitus: The Doctrine of Flux: The world as undergoing ceaseless change
  • Democritus: Atomism: Indvisible entities that make up composites, their nature being explained by the difference in the quantitative aspect rather than the qualitative aspect of atoms
  • Socrates: The Socratic Method, Conceptual Thinking
  • Plato: Idea of Universals
  • Aristotle: Logic, Science, Teleology

Both science and philosophy have been impacted by these concepts. Politics and ethics are topics I have not even begun to mention. These concepts continue to be present and addressed. For instance, despite the fact that contemporary science claims to have resolved the issue of teleology once and for all, the topic teleology attempted to address is still open. The Regress Argument is still a difficult concept for us to understand, and contemporary science has yet to discover a set of self-evident fundamental principles that can explain everything.

Thank you,

Select the reasons That describe why the battles at Lexington and concord were significant
Alla [95]

Answer:

        b. It ended any hope of peacefully resolving differences between England and the Americans.

       c. The British recruited a larger army.

       d. The colonial army quickly grew in size.

Explanation:

The Battles of Lexington and Concord were the first battles of the American Revolution and as a result of the casualties on both sides, ended any hope of the differences between the British and Americans being resolved in a peaceful manner.

The British realized that they would need a larger army to defeat the rebellion and so recruited a larger one.

The Colonial army also realized the same and encouraged by their victory against the British, believed they could win the war. This led to a swelling of the Colonial army ranks.
