...appearance of the Church becoming simpler and consequently more Protestant. The process of reformation continued in 1552. The New Treason Act meant that non-one could question the reform of Northumberland and shortly after this the Second Book of Common Prayer removed nearly all traces of Catholicism, reconstructing the Eucharist ceremony to a 'spiritual presence' and the Second Act of uniformity enforced this in every parish. The 42 Articles and the fabrication of a short catechism followed in line with realigning the church with the articles being based on the Protestant justification of salvation through faith alone and the catechism enforcing the work of Protestant Pastor John Calvin. Despite all this change there was still opposition from some reformers showing a complete Protestant church had not been achieved by 1553. The New reformed Ordinal and the subsequent swearing of an oath to saints enraged the radical Protestant Hooper as Protestant beliefs say that anyone who believes in Jesus is a Saint therefore the oath is false to their beliefs. Opposition continued at the...

Because I am choosing to research three different points for the response I will alter the search terms appropriately. For the information in support of the other student’s opinion I plan to use the search phrase “benefits of social media in job searches,” for the neutral, informative response I plan to use the phrase “use of social media in job searches,” and for the rebuttal response I am choosing to use the search phrase “dangers in the use of social media in job searches.” I will evaluate the validity of the information and credibility of the source through three different factors: citations used by the article, credibility of the sponsor behind the article, and if the information provided is current. The first source to discuss would be in support of social media in job searching. The source is a slideshow developed for the careers section of U.S....

...Opposition by American Conservatives, extremists and presidential candidates The resistance and opposition of CCSS by American Conservatives include indoctrination, data mining, and legal opinion for State rights. Further, their rationales differ in trying to protect education as a state run exclusive right because of historical legacies and funding. In the article “Common Core Education Standards: Why they’re contested left and right;” Amanda Paulson describes the adverse reaction in which politicians and the general public have in regards to current education reform as a whole. The backlash is coming from both sides of the political spectrum. Among Republicans, supporting Common Core (aka “Obamacore”) has become particularly toxic,...

...about whether or not Facebook’s change in privacy approaches matter and, if so, to whom. Josh Rose sees Facebook as an opportunity to reach out to friends and family members they may not see on a regular basis. William Deresiewicz makes compelling suggestions in his article “Faux Friendships”; his ideas and modernized definitions on the truth behind the word “friend” makes a good arugument. Though there are differences and similarities of the arguments of Josh Rose and William Deresiewicz on the issue of Facebook’s connectivity, neither author is fully persuasive; there is a middle ground between the two that better explains the Facebook’s role in modern human connectivity. Josh Rose presents a fleeting, generalized argument, lacking raw facts. While the article is an op-ed, which inherently demands the author’s opinion, Josh Rose uses his opinion as the main backing. He says “social media is not cold, just complex,” (57) and due to the complexity he simply drops the topic. This is the author’s one attempt at addressing the opposition. To him the opposition believes social media is cold, and his response is that social media is complex. He neither properly establishes the opposition nor properly refutes the opposition. His vague generalizations are rampant; Rose calls the issue “paradoxical and confusing,” using that as a stepping stone to a rant on human nature and human progress, seemingly unrelated to his initial argument. Moreover, the pages are dripping with emotional appeal...

...The article written by Hajrah Mumtaz titled ‘Here comes everybody’ tackles a very pertinent issue vis-à-vis the current age of information: the dissemination of the thoughts and impressions of the common man for the viewership of the entire world. This notion encapsulates the crux of the article where Hajrah herself attempts to provide an unbiased analysis of both sides of the argumentation with relevant examples to support each viewpoint. The significance of this article is indicative in the fact that it is pertinent to every single individual who uses the internet in this day and age to keep themselves updated on the news around the world and who would inevitably be the viewers of this article as well. This article is an argumentative piece in which the author tries to rationally present both sides of the argument as to whether the mass upsurge in what she has termed as ‘citizen’s journalism’: the average citizen publishing news and views on the internet, in the recent times, is beneficial or detrimental to our society. She presents the two opposing points of view; in which the proponents claim that this form of journalism is by the people for the people as they include both the users as well as the contributors of information due to which there is no apparent gap in perspective in emanation and subsequent interpretation. The writer also claims that the veracity of this genre of journalism is not affected by the factors such as profitability, marketing image etc and this...

Andrew Heard’s article titled “Just What is a Vote of Confidence? The Curious Case of May 10, 2005” addresses the issues with defining the elements that form a vote of confidence. The article, summarized below, examines important events in Canadian political history that can provide a measure of confidence votes in government. The prologue of the work introduces confidence votes as the subject being addressed. Heard...

When America’s founding fathers constructed this guideline for the United States, it is quite certain they never expected the judicial branch of government to become what is has today: a political party nightmare. In the world today, the idea of being a Democrat or Republican influences everything you do; voting, who you are friends with, what news channel you watch, etc. Political parties have taken America over, and have now also taken over the Supreme Court. For the Senate, it is no longer about whether the nominee is fit for the position, it is about if they are a member...

...In the article I Ka Olelo No Ke Ola: Understanding Indigenous Hawaiian History and Politics Through Hawaiian Language Sources by Noenoe K. Silva and J. Leliani Basham, they empathize that US colonialism have contributed to Hawaiian language erasure, which meant that Hawaiians are taught in English rather than their native language. Moreover, this means that colonialism is erasing the study of Hawaiian history and perspective, politics and anthropology by having it done in English. The language revitalization movement have given us the opportunity to study Hawaiian history from the Hawaiian perspective. Specifically, Silva examines the history of the Hawaiian overthrow and the opposition of the annexation of Hawaii by the US in the Hawaiian perspective and compares it...

...the article “The Morality of Birth Control”, Margaret Sanger argued that birth control is a moral solution to unwanted pregnancies and everyone should be informed about it (559). She originally published these claims as a well-known speech. She had hoped to motivate people with positions of power to join her movement promoting birth control. This article was one of the first steps Sanger took to change society’s view about birth control. Although “The Morality of Birth Control” contains a lot of Margaret Sanger’s personal opinions, I agree with her claim and feel as though she made a persuasive argument. At the time that this speech was given, there was a lot of controversy over...

...Assessment Preparation Checklist: In this assessment, you will discuss plagiarism and judge an argument. Look at the following points before attempting the assessment. You have just been given an assignment to write an annotated bibliography. Before you begin, you need to know what exactly an annotated bibliography is and how to get started. First, what is an annotation? An annotation is more than just a brief summary of an article, book, Web site or other type of publication. An annotation should give enough information to make a reader decide whether to read the complete work. In other words, if the reader were exploring the same topic as you, is this material useful and if so, why? How is an annotation different from an abstract? While an abstract also summarizes an article, book, Web site or other type of publication, it is purely descriptive. Although annotations can be descriptive, they also include distinctive features about an item. Annotations can be evaluative and critical as we will see when we look at the two major types of annotations. What is an annotated bibliography? An annotated bibliography is an organized list of sources (like a reference list). It differs from a straightforward bibliography in that each reference is followed by a paragraph length annotation, usually 100–200 words in length. Depending on the assignment, an annotated bibliography might have different purposes: * Provide a literature review on a particular subject * Help...

...The Opposition to the War The Spanish-American war had two sides to the conflict. The side that was mostly publicize by the media was how important the war was to our country and how we supported Cuba and the Philippines. The opposing side of the war was shadowed by harsh media coverage of supporters for the war. Many people are unaware that there was an organization officially against Imperialism. In this organization there were many known figures who had voiced their opinions on expansion. Opposition of the Spanish-American War was rarely heard of due to the overpowering reactions to yellow journalism. Yellow journalism was the expression used for reporters who would travel to Cuba and write false articles of the events that were taking...

...In the Constitution, Article V, there are two ways to propose an amendment. The first, and most common, method is by a 2/3 vote in both houses of Congress. However, in this article, the states are trying to do the second option. The second option is 2/3 of the states request that Congress to hold a national convention. This way is one of the major reason there is such an opposition to the amendment. If a national convention is held, other amendments could possibly be changed as well. People, even conservative Republicans, have concerns about the rest of the document. Many people they should not touch what the founding fathers did with the Constitution back in 1787. But also as a matter of fact, the states who are attempting to have a national convention, feel as though the Congress is too far from people. The Founding Fathers gave many ways to allow the people to be involved in government, but apparently it is not enough for some people. By...

...First Response essay In this response essay, I will firstly be analyzing the various concepts put forward by Hu Shi. I will then attest to these arguments before evaluating the article as a whole. Hu Shi’s article “The Significance of The New Thought” in his book China’s response to the West provides an interesting and rational perspective regarding the attitudes displayed in the May fourth movement. Hu Shi actually alludes the May fourth movement to that of a ‘Chinese renaissance’ and bases the overall mindsets as one of criticism and reflection. In practice, this attitude identifies the existing flaws of the current status quo and innovates new ideas and improvements to the system. For example, throughout the movement many controversies were put forward such as the problem of Confucianism and technological development, vernacularism and the classical language, and our ethical practices to name a few. This stance to challenge encourages people to introduce new academic theories, to which it is developed and adjusted. To a substantial extent, I agree with Hu Shi’s interpretation of the May fourth movement. After all, it appears that throughout history, society tends to replace traditional institutions through a process of reflection and creative destruction. In concordance with Chiang Monlin’s interpretation, Hu Shi views the May fourth movement as an “emancipating movement”. The movement was an era of challenge. Tradition was challenged by reason, authority was challenged...
