Irreversibility refers to the preoperational child's tendency to "believe that what has been done cannot be undone".
Irreversibility is a phase in early child advancement in which a kid erroneously trusts that activities can't be turned around or fixed. For instance, if a three-year-old kid sees somebody straighten a ball of play dough, he won't comprehend that the batter can without much of a stretch be changed into a ball. Kids regularly develop past this phase by age seven.
When Jesus reached the famous well at Shechem and asked a Samaritan woman for a drink, she replied full of surprise: "Jews do not associate with Samaritans” (John 4:9). In the ancient world, relations between Jews and Samaritans were indeed strained. Josephus reports a number of unpleasant events: Samaritans harass Jewish pilgrims traveling through Samaria between Galilee and Judea, Samaritans scatter human bones in the Jerusalem sanctuary, and Jews in turn burn down Samaritan villages. The very notion of “the good Samaritan” (Luke 10:25-37) only makes sense in a context in which Samaritans were viewed with suspicion and hostility by Jews in and around Jerusalem.
It is difficult to know when the enmity first arose in history—or for that matter, when Jews and Samaritans started seeing themselves (and each other) as separate communities. For at least some Jews during the Second Temple period, 2Kgs 17:24-41 may have explained Samaritan identity: they were descendants of pagan tribes settled by the Assyrians in the former <span>northern kingdom </span>of Israel, the region where most Samaritans live even today. But texts like this may not actually get us any closer to understanding the Samaritans’ historical origins.
The Samaritans, for their part, did not accept any scriptural texts beyond the Pentateuch. Scholars have known for a long time about an ancient and distinctly Samaritan version of the Pentateuch—which has been an important source for textual criticism of the Bible for centuries. In fact, a major indication for a growing Samaritan self-awareness in antiquity was the insertion of "typically Samaritan" additions into this version of the Pentateuch, such as a Decalogue commandment to build an altar on Mount Gerizim, which Samaritans viewed as the sole “place of blessing” (see also Deut 11:29, Deut 27:12). They fiercely rejected Jerusalem—which is not mentioned by name in the Pentateuch—and all Jerusalem-related traditions and institutions such as kingship and messianic eschatology.
Answer:
what r choices to question
Answer:
speculation.
Explanation:
Democritus was a pre-Socratic philosopher. Like all philosophers who share this label, they mostly engaged in a kind of thought governed by speculation in search of governing doctrines, in specific a peculiar form of speculation, that is to say, a kind of informed and well-reasoned imaginative effort based on no empirical or demonstrable principles. One such speculative doctrine is his theory of atoms which holds great resemblance with the modern day conception of atoms that we have today, though they are based on extremely different arguments and, in the case of the Greek philosopher, no observable phenomena.
