Baba has strict views on life, particularly sin. "There is only one sin, only one. And that is theft. Every other sin is a varia

Trava [24]

Answer:

Baba's definition of sin means that there is no greater sin than taking the right of someone from attaining what he wants and needs.

I agree with Baba's concept of sin, for it robs everyone of the primary right to anything.

Amir finds it hard to accept Baba's opinion of "theft" as the master of all sins for he feels that he had deprived his family of his mother. He felt responsible for stealing her life from them.

Explanation:

In the novel <em>The Kite Runner</em> by Khaled Hosseini, the author deals with the life around the Afghan town of Kabul and his own earlier life growing up in these areas. The story revolves around the themes of identity, the love, loyalty, betrayal and eventual redemption of the characters.

In the given excerpt, Baba is talking about the sin of "theft" which can signify numerous other sins. To him, theft is the most dangerous sin of all, for it robs someone of the essential right. His meaning is clear when he further explains, stating that

<em>Every other sin is a variation of theft... When you kill a man, you steal a life.You steal his wife's right to a husband, rob his children of a father. When you tell a lie, you steal someone's right to the truth. When you cheat, you steal the right to fairness. There is no act more wretched than stealing.</em>

I agree with Baba's concept of sin for it is the major thing that deprives a person from his own right to anything.

Amir asked Baba about what signifies sin, finding it hard to understand when his teachers told him that drinking is a sin. He asked Baba why he drinks a lot which is deemed a sin. But when Baba told him about the only sin that is superior over all, he struggled to understand Baba's concept of sin, for when Baba explains it, he felt bad for 'killing' his mother, thus taking her away from Baba.

Is it apparent that the hammurabi code is clearly the product of a civilization, rather than some other kind of early society? D

frez [133]

Yes, it is apparent that the hammurabi code is clearly the product of a civilization, rather than some other kind of early society, because it was the first written code. The distintion between early societies and civilization is the ability to write and read. The hammurabi code was the first one written, thus making it the first law code of a civilization.

---

Yes, the code illustrate key elements of what a civilization is. The code is perhaps the first example of a codified law, where the principle of "eye for eye" is explained and adjusted in adherence to a variety of circumstances. Moreover, it offers examples of law regarding different matters like weddings, divorce, reproductive law and so on.

---

In Babylonia at the time there were three main social classes, which were property owners, freed men, and slaves. Those classes played a role when it came to the application of the law, as a crime towards an higher class had a greater punishment then a crime towrds a lower class, for example. Euqlity is in this sense was not yet achieved.

---

Yes, the code suggest wide gaps among them. As said before, there were disparities in treatment, whatever the crime was. A property owner that assault a slave was a sever less crime than the opposite case, for example, proving that some wide gaps were present and influenced the everyday life of the population.

---

Very low protection. Babylonia at the time was a very patriarchal society, so the protection of women were reserved to the men in charge of them. It was mostly the men who were refunded in case and the protection extended to women were often written as protection made in order to protected what it was considered mostly like a good.

---

Because women did not have rights on their own body. They cannot decide for themselves and have very restricted possibilities in the society. Mostly, they were considered like a very precious good, and thus they were treated. They could not partecipate in the political or social life and have a very limited role in society.

---

Yes, babylonia had a powerful state with a large bureaucracy. It was perhaps the first state with a large bureaucracy, that was in charge of taxes and justice and other state duties. Bureaucracy also was what allowed the country to expand and extend its influences over a lot of territories, so for a long time bureaucracy was also responsable for making babylonia thriving.

---

Perhaps prisons. They were not a concept back in the day. All charges were resolved at the moment and there were not the concept of prison as a place where people stayed because they have committed a crime. What was present was a system that assure an immediate repercussion on the guilty part, like losing an hand.

---

Because the accusation, if proven true, would lead to an immediate execution of the penalty, thus effectively limited the "guilty" person, so a false accusation was perhaps a tool that many people used when they wanted something and they did not achieve to those results. It was perhaps also used as a vendetta against enemies.

Which of the following is not an example of an in-group?The Ku Klux Klan

klio [65]

Answer:

A high school

Explanation:

An in-group represents a group of people who psychologically believe that they are part of that group. These groups espouse some ideology that makes members feel psychologically attached to the point of forming a group. A high school is not an in-group because people who are attending high school are not there because they feel psychologically attached to something related to high school but rather because it is their duty to attend this place.
