The founding fathers wanted a democracy like the Greeks. The founding fathers were also inspired by the Romans ( that’s why we have a president, senate, etc.). To get to the point it’s because they didn’t want the government to be powerful over the people. This is why we have a 2nd amendment. People don’t know this but the 2nd amendment is so we can make a militia if the government became tyrannical. People also don’t like free speech which is an important amendment that has gotten us far. Taking these amendments away is actually now giving power to the government.
Hammurabi was the 6th Babylonian King in 18th
century BC while Confucius was a Chinese teacher, philosopher and a prophet who
passed away in 479 BC. They are from different times and cultures but there are
striking similarities between their teachings and writings.
Both of them emphasized on the rule of Law, Hammurabi is a
bit straight forward in citing the punishment for a crime while Confucius being
a philosopher quoted it in his teachings, urging people to abide by the rules
and law and giving such a man the title of “Great Man”. In the second example when Confucius is
stressing on family values and taking care of family, he is being straight
forward while Hammurabi when citing the same subject puts is in another way,
for example if someone son has died due to the negligence of a builder, the builder’s
son will be killed. That shows he is stressing on family values also.
And the final and most amazing similarity is the stressing
on Truth, both Hammurabi and Conscious seem uncompromising on this subject.
