In the essay, “In Defense of Prejudice”, by Jonathan Rauch, he defines the position opposite to his own as “purism”. He states that the public does not know enough about the term and it has yet to be properly identified. Rauch states that “purism” cannot be justified without the traces of prejudice to be completely removed from society, but that prejudice will never be removed from society due to continuous perceptions that people have. Throughout the essay Rauch defines purism, and it can be attained that the public does not know what pluralism is, what it means to be politically correct, and what society really is without constant prejudice. In this essay, those concepts will be explored with Rauch’s position on them, and what he believes.

Indeed, if the judge has his sole conscious to indicate the objective interpretation of a piece of original law, America will be subjugated under a regimen of contradictory interpretations. “Judges should not feel free to pour their own political values and ideals into the constitution” ( Whittington,2008, p162).
'Only Hard Determinism is justifiable' Discuss. Determinism is the idea that all actions are governed by laws outside of one’s control. Some philosophers believer that one’s ability to make free choices is an illusion whereas, others state that there is something else beyond understanding that may cause one’s actions to be determined. There are a variety of theories which are response to dealing with debate about free will and determinism. Hard determinism is the theory that human behaviour and actions are wholly determined by external factors, and therefore humans do not have genuine free will or ethical accountability.
“The inability to communicate creates potential conflict" When individuals are not capable to express their needs and desires to one another it ultimately results in conflict. Conflict is driven by the need to survive and propagate in a world of contrasting opinions. If individuals do not communicate and discuss about their problems than the likelihood of conflict arousing is inevitable.

Questioning the ideas and decisions of people in authority is crucial to the advancement and development of their self-cognitive thinking and discovery. Everyone has their own idea of ethics and morality, but figures of authority including teachers, heads of nations, or other positions of power, may not always be in line that morality. In order to determine whether a figure of authority is doing what is just, individuals must speak out when they perceive injustice. That means that they must question the authority. Dystopian novels often portray systems of national leadership in which questioning the authority of the government is explicitly forbidden.
