However the words "Let freedom ring..." followed by settings on American soil convey that the ideals of freedom will be achievable by every American without the restriction of race and or location.

How can women's rights be universal in the face of widespread divergences of cultural practice, when in some societies marriage is seen not as a contract between two individuals but as an alliance between lineages, and when the permissible behaviour of womenfolk is central to the society's perception of its honour? In addition, some religious leaders argue that

philosophy is the study of a person?s political and ideological formulations; it deals with the state, the government and the sovereignty or the ruler. In a given society, the state and the government need to regulate the power relations among people. It is the conceptualization of such relations that is central to political philosophy.

and era that we live in today marriage is becoming very scarce among my generation and families are being started before a marriage is even considered .Growing up in a single parent home was not easy nor fair but it seems to be the norm of today’s society. Instilled in me sense I’ve been gracing the world for 23 years, “first comes loves, then comes marriage, then come the baby in the baby carriage”; It was an old lullaby that my mother song to me as a child .

sought freedom of religion on the American continent to be able to worship in their own ways. My ancestors were apart of this group of people that fled from religious persecution in Europe. The United States government should only stand to let the American people decide on a specific religion and how they choose to worship. The American government should be available to support and enforce the ideals represented in having freedom of religion. There has been long debate regarding separation of church

We're a society so fast to detect imperfections in each other that we feel the need to modify our appearances simply to conform to the unrealistic expectations of 'the perfect appearance'. Ladies and gentleman, One of the most fascinating aspects of Brave New World for me is that it epitomises the pursuit of physical perfection and treatment of the notion of female beauty. In my opinion, Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World conditions people into the ‘perfect human’ leading then to the ‘ideal society’ that

Although capitalism paves the path for a freedom to choose the way in which money is earned, the money-sucking policies associated with it prove to hurt the majority of Americans in today’s society. On paper, the American capitalist system does allow for an independently chosen career, however, is this system as ideal as it seems?
