Answer:
b. empties their minds
Explanation:
From the passage, the Sage/leader's only way to achieve harmony is by keeping the masses ignorant hence feeding them full and making sure that there are no ambitions since there is no knowledge.
Therefore, according to Laozi, Dao De Jing the masses can only stay in harmony if there is no contention( as a result of knowledge) in the aim to acquire value. For example if the people do not know that gold is valuable and worth a lot of money, there will be no contention to get gold or theft of gold.
Answer:
Conventional
Explanation:
Kohlberg did some studies on morality and proposed a theory on moral development.
Kohlberg defined three different levels of morality (and each level consists in 2 stages).
These levels are
- Pre conventional
- Conventional
- Post conventional
In the preconventional level, the person's morality is externally controlled and therefore acts based on what the punishment will be (1st stage) or based on how good will it be for him/her to act in some way (2nd stage)
The conventional level stages also have to do with external controls but now the person thinks in function of ensuring positive relationships and societal order. The third stage here depends on the approval of others. The fourth stage has to do with accepting rules because they preserve the society order and functioning.
The postconventional level stages are defined in more abstract principles or values. The 5th stage sees the world as a place with different values that must be respected. Finally the 6th stage is based in universal ethical abstract principles.
In this example, the student believes that plagiarism is acceptable because of what her friends think. We can see that her belief is influenced by external controls and she likely wants the approval of her peers and that's why she thinks that. Thus, we can say that she is in the conventional level of Kohlberg's theory.
The missionaries in the Oregon Territory had a very different purpose than the rest of those in the area. Most people who went west and to the Oregon Terrritory were doing so to get land and start a farm. Missionaries, while they might have done this as well, were primarily there to spread the Christian Gospel and start Christian ministries such as churches and orphanages.
