What is the difference between Wilson’s Fourteen Points and the Treaty of Versailles?

1 answer:

6 0

The greatest difference between the 14 points and the ToV is the blame for the war. In the ToV Germany is blamed for the war and the Treaty is more a sentence than terms of an armistice, to where the 14 points was more a negotiated settlement for an armistice. The 14 points may have included and recognized the new German and would have brought that government into the negotiation process. Many aspects would have been difficult for Germany to agree to but instead of the agreement being forced upon them the new German government would have played a role in the resolution. It was the Germans that first accepted the 14 points for an armistice, knew the terms, and exiled there emperor I believe that there would have been strong support to honor the agreement by the German people. The ToV on the other hand was made to punish the Germans, Breakup the German Empire, and have the Germans pay for the war. It was also made to negate the role played by Wilson and the USA in the war. The ToV also allowed the Allied powers to keep their colonies and only the German colonies were, in some point in time, to be open for autonomous rule. The 14 points might have prevented WW2, the ToV was the punishment that bound the German people together to avenge the disgrace.

What kinds of women were attracted to Buddhist monastic life? What aspects appealed to them?

lbvjy [14]

Ladies in Buddhism is a point that can be drawn nearer from differed viewpoints including those of philosophy, history, human sciences and women's liberation. Topical interests incorporate the philosophical status of ladies, the treatment of ladies in Buddhist social orders at home and in broad daylight, the historical backdrop of ladies in Buddhism, and a correlation of the encounters of ladies crosswise over various types of Buddhism. As in different religions, the encounters of Buddhist ladies have changed impressively.In Theravada Buddhism, it is outlandish for a lady to be a bodhisattva, which is somebody on their approach to Buddhahood. Bodhisattva can be a human, creature, serpent, or a divine being, however is never a lady.

The Theravada does not deny ladies to end up noticeably stirred, but rather they can't lead a Buddhist people group. In the event that the desire to Buddhahood has been made and a Buddha of the time affirms it, it is difficult to be reawakened as a lady. A proper point is for ladies to try to be renewed as male. They can turn into a male by moral activities and earnest yearning to maleness. Being conceived a female is a consequence of awful karma.
