You think some more about what happened on your way home. You realize that your colleague is but one person; who knows how many other people out there think like her? It helps to change people's racial stereotypes and attitudes, but the only way real change can come about is if our institutions and systems implement policies that promote racial equality. You suddenly feel angry. What if redlining still goes on because real estate companies are filled with people who think like your colleague? What policies exist to stop such institutionalized prejudice?
Answer: You are sitting at a Mexican restaurant waiting for your food. The waiter brings a very hot plate, telling you to be careful about touching it. You touch it anyway, producing a pain sensation in your fingers, a withdrawal of your hand, and an auditory comment of what you are thinking. This scenario represents an <u>involuntary</u> act on the neuronal circuit.
Explanation:
<em>The neurons</em> of an organism form <u>numerous circuits </u>that originate very complex networks. The nervous current that circulates through them produces two <u>types of acts:</u>
- Involuntary Acts. (reflex arc)
They are<u> fast, automatic, and are performed without the action of the brain</u>. In a reflex act, sensitive information only reaches the spinal cord, so the <em>response is automatic</em>. They are the ones that are performed when a quick response is needed.
They are <u>varied, changing, and more elaborated.</u> Voluntary acts are carried out in a conscious way and are <em>controlled voluntarily</em>. Not all are a consequence of the reception of an external stimulus, since t<u>hey can be produced directly in the cerebral cortex</u> without the need for an external stimulus.
Augustine's starting point for his account of the relationship between men and women is the story of the creation and Fall found in Genesis 2-3.
In Genesis 2: 18 God says “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.” From this Augustine concludes that Eve is made to be Adam's helper. He further deduces that her primary role must be procreation as (in his view) a male companion would be better for every other task. Better for physical labour (stronger) better for conversation (more in common).
'If it were not the case that the woman was created to be man’s helper specifically for the production of children, then why would she have been created as a “helper”? Was it so that she might work the land with him? No . . . a male would have made a better assistant. One can also posit that the reason for her creation as a helper had to do with the companionship she could provide for the man . . . . Yet for company and conversation, how much more agreeable it is for two male friends to dwell together than for a man and a woman! . . .
