.... and emphasis on the joy of family life over maintaining ethnic purity. Legally, women in Ancient Egypt held the same legal rights as men. A woman could own property and manage it as she saw fit. One example of this, the Inscription of Mes, provided scholars with proof that women could manage property, institute litigation, and could act as a witness before a court of law.

They could also enter contracts and travel freely, unescorted, throughout the state. This is a great contrast .....

.... are caused by peer pressure and greed. Many teens in gangs will pressure peers into becoming part of a gang by making it all sound glamorous. Money is also an crucial factor. A kid (a 6-10 year old, who is not yet a member) is shown that s/he could make $200 to $400 for small part time gang jobs. Although these are important factors they are not strong enough to make kids do things that are strongly against their morals. One of the ways that kids morals are bent so that gang violence becomes more acceptable is the influence of television and movies. The average child spends more time at a TV than she/he spends in a classroom. Since nobo .....

.... something to compare it to, which is good. But, If God was really all-good the word evil would not exist because everything would just be good. If God is so good and so powerful than why does he let so much evil exist? I could understand a little bit of bad people and things to make the good stand out, but there is so much. All the time in the news you hear about someone being murdered, children being molested, a natural disaster striking a area and many people suffering and dying, etc... This also shows that God cannot be all-powerful if lets all this evil exist in the universe that he supposedly created. The second solution to the problem o .....

.... Morality is important for society as a whole, as it makes life livable. Now expanding on the happiness theory, I will discuss the ideas of Aristotle. Aristotle believed that happiness is the quality of whole human life. We all have misconceptions about happiness.

.... children of all ages included and everyone got along. What happened to this time? Did the days get shorter? No…the same twenty-four hours still constitutes a day. Now no one seems to have time to share, to sit down together as a family and enjoy a meal. Now dinner time is full of interruptions; the sounds of shouting and laughter from the Drew Carry show or a honk for the passing cars at the Sonic. No longer is there assurance in knowing that every member of your family will be present at the designation eating time. Refrigerators where mothers and wives once posted nightly menus describing delicious meals are now covered with marker boards a .....
