Please formalize the argument seen in the following passage:
look round the world: contemplate the whole and every part of it: you will find it to be nothing but one great machine, subdivided into an infinite number of lesser machines, which again admit of subdivisions to a degree beyond what human senses and faculties can trace and explain. all these various machines, and even their most minute parts, are adjusted to each other with an accuracy which ravishes into admiration all men who have ever contemplated them. the curious adapting of means to ends, throughout all nature, resembles exactly, though it much exceeds, the productions of human contrivance; of human designs, thought, wisdom, and intelligence. since, therefore, the effects resemble each other, we are led to infer, by all the rules of analogy, that the causes also resemble; and that the author of nature is somewhat similar to the mind of man, though possessed of much larger faculties, proportioned to the grandeur of the work which he has executed. by this argument a posteriori, and by this argument alone, do we prove at once the existence of a deity, and his similarity to human mind and intelligence

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

This is an analogical argument. Following is its representation:

1. Machines and world are quite similar in their minute parts are adjusted with accuracy to each other and there is adopting means to ends.

2. Machines are product of the human minds.

3. The world is a design by something similar to a human mind.

Explanation:

This is an analogical argument. Following is its representation:

1. Machines and world are quite similar in their minute parts are adjusted with accuracy to each other and there is adopting means to ends.

2. Machines are product of the human minds.

3. The world is a design by something similar to a human mind.

The strength of the analogical argument mainly depends on the relevance of the shared properties of the targeted properties.

Answers

Answer:

C. " ...That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it..."

Explanation:

The Social Contract Theory says that people choose to form political entities because they agree to be ruled by governments only when these goverments act for the common good. According to this theory, it is the right of the people to change the government in case of general disagreement with it.

This is one of the theories that justified the American Revolution, and the French Revolution, and the Haitian Revolution.

4. How might these questions about human nature, purpose, and flourishing be answered by those holding a pantheistic or atheistic (choose one) worldview

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Using Atheistic worldview.

It is generally believed that, atheist do things or acts based on logical conclusion, rather than following the laid down rules or mode of living set out by God  and prophets.

Thus, atheist would view human nature, purpose, and flourishing based on their own experience or conscious self reasoning, instead of seeking God for answers on those questions, by looking for meanings through scriptures or word of God.

To the athiest, human nature will be a composition of his biological instincts and physical experience. The question of purpose to athiest will be based on self definitions, rather than central purpose or destiny, and question of flourishing will also be based on personal evaluation in comparison to his immediate or socio-enviroment.

what identified the characteristics of the plains Indian's cultures.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Every tribe was different, although certain elements were common to most of the Plains tribes. The true Plains peoples were entirely nomadic, following migrating herds of buffalo, antelope and deer that provided the major portion of the diet. They therefore needed mobile dwellings: the tipi-style lodges that had different names in each of the many Plains languages.

Each tribe was based on clans and small hunting bands; only very rarely would an entire tribe come together in one place - and this would only be for a very short time due to lack of sufficient food and grazing. Consequently most tribes had no head chief.

All plains people depended on horses for transport, hunting and warfare. Some war parties set out on foot, in the expectation of stealing enemy horses that could be ridden and herded back to camp.

Bows were the primary weapon for hunting and in war.

The Plains people generally lacked pottery since it was far too heavy and fragile for a nomadic lifestyle; instead containers of rawhide (parfleches) were made, which were very light and durable.

Hunting bands would not remain in any one place for more than a few weeks, except in winter when a sheltered valley would be used for many month

What do you see as the major strengths and flaws in the feedback control system used in the schools in this scenario

Answers

Explanation:

This is based on the Comprehension/Passage titled FIVE STARS COUSINS

The major strengths of the feedback control system used in the schools are described below:

1. Teachers' performance are not only based on students' performance or test score.

2. The evaluation strategies for teachers are different or peculiar to each area. That is, the evaluation strategy for those in urban areas is different from those in suburban or rural area.

1. There is subjectivity in the personal observation of principals and master teachers, which can affect the true ratings.

2. Unavailability of expert opinion. Instead of using principals and master teachers only, expert or independent opinion would have gone a long way to assess the situation better.

3. Tendency of biasness from the principals and master teachers, as they may rate their teachers higher so as to increase their good reputation.

4. Making conclusion on the basis of four classes by master teachers is too small to reach a definite conclusion.

5. Lack of monitoring control system, which made the principals and teachers to skipped their duty of visiting the teachers and some times providing false reports.

1)Predict: How will supply and demand and labor substitutes in these job markets affect their pay and likeliness to get a job?

2)How will supply and demand within the job market affect my career choice?

Answers

Answer:

1)Predict: How will supply and demand and labor substitutes in these job markets affect their pay and likeliness to get a job?

Supply, demand and labor substitutes are three variables that will determine the wage.

For the medical field, the demand for doctors tends to be higher than the supply of doctors, because becoming a doctor is costly both in time and money. This means that doctors will be well-paid, according to this model.

Besides, there are not so many labor substitutes for a doctor, increasing the probability of a high pay for them.

The opposite occurs for barbers. Barbers are easier to supply, and demand is not as high for them. This means that a barber salary will be much lower than a doctor's salary. Finally, barbers do have more labor substitutes as well.

2)How will supply and demand within the job market affect my career choice?

Supply and demand within the job market, as explained above, largely determines the quality of the career that you choose. A labor market with high supply and low demand means that the chosen career will be paid less, while a labor market with low supply and high demand means that the chosen career will be paid high salaries.
