Answer:

Truman believed that the weapon shouldn't even be used. In a press conference he said, “It is a terrible weapon, and it should not be used on innocent men, women, and children.”(History.com) And even in his farewell address he told the country that “We are being hurried forward, in our mastery of the atom…toward yet unforeseeable peaks of destructive power [when man could] destroy the very structure of a civilization…such a war is not a possible policy for rational men.”

Define enlightened absolutism. Do you think that a truly enlightened absolutism style government can actually exist?
dmitriy555 [2]
<span>Enlightened absolutism is a system in which rulers tried to govern by Enlightenment principles while maintaining complete royal power. These Enlightenment principles include have equality, the freedom of speech, religion, press, and to own property. I do not think a truly enlightened absolutism style government can exist because, if the rulers follow the ideas of Enlightenment, they can still lose their power.</span>
