History

lilavasa [31]3 years ago

Both sophists and philosophers were well trained and highly educated, but the main difference was that a sophist taught others and they got paid for that. It is said that their own wealth was their only goal.

Philosophers, such as Socrates, refused to get paid.

Throughout history, the sophists have had a reputation as professionally amoral, . They would help people to attain any goal,  regardless of what it was. They would take any case, promote any cause, and empower any person, if the money was right.

Philosophers, for the most part, have walked on the side of the angels. They may sometimes have had reputations as prolix and obscure, complex and abstract,  out of touch, but they have, for the most part, seemed to be purer souls in their focus and work.

In other words, the sophists were much more concerned about how than about why. The philosophers have always been more cautious.

How did the us government promote the war at home
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

Providing supplies to American and Allied troops fighting the war in Europe, Africa, and the Pacific required the efforts of all Americans. At home, citizens contributed to the war effort by rationing consumer goods, recycling materials, purchasing war bonds, and working in war industries. At home, buying war bonds or savings stamps was probably the most common way to support the war. When people bought a bond or a savings stamp, they were lending money to the government. Their money would be paid back with interest after the war

What wrongs did the Pope accuse the Seljuk Turks of carrying out?
Pie
The wrongs that he accused them off was them being infidels who pillage and steal and assault women and destroy churches and similar things. He accused them of attacking Christians and Christianity and wanted to force them to leave out of areas that were Christian.

The groups that he excluded was old people, weak, women, and the clergy. He didn't want these groups to go because he didn't believe that they could be helpful in war. Also, priests had to stay in Europe and not go to war because they were needed for spreading religion.

The appeals that he used is appeal to their emotions and he appealed to his credibility to speak so. In Christianity, the pope is the person who was chosen by god so what he says is what the god wants to be said. He said that they would all go to heaven if they supported the crusades which they believed and considered to be words from god.
