Ender's game anticipation answers
Lying is justifiable if it's for the greater good.
I gave it a 4 because sometimes it could hurt someones feelings or they could tell other people which makes a huge lie which needs other so you don't get in trouble.It is good at times bad at others.
Sometimes violence is the only way to solve a problem.
I thought
it is okay because if the person does not listen your only options would be v
iolence
or yelling, and one leaves you with bruises and the other a headache. I gave it a 4.
Words are stronger than fists.
That is true because you can hurt someone's feeling's by being rude. That saying "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but names will never hurt me"
is half way correct the names could mess with your self esteem and the way you
act around people.
Bullies hurt others because they have low self esteem.
I gave it a 3 because some do it just to be cool and others do it cause of low self esteem, so they feel it is right to pick on the high self esteem. There are different types of bullying 1. up front 2. cyber 3. anything. I already explained number 1, number 2 some people have killed themselves because (14% to be exact) you do not know who is doing it because of today's technology.
Only the best and brightest students should receive the best education to become a nation's leaders.
I don't think that is fair so I gave it 1 if I could I would have gave in nothing. What if when I graduated my grades weren't the best, then went to college and got really great grades(all A+'s). Why would I not be able to. There are a lot of other reasons, but I am not going to say all of the reasons, you think of 1 and make a comment saying it
Revenge is never justified.
I think that it is justified depending on what the person did. I gave it a 3 because depending on what it is it could go either way.
Crying is evidence of weakness.
I don't think so because what if I break my arm, OF COURSE I'M GONNA CRY!! I gave it a 2. If I were to get a math problem wrong I would not cry or that would be some type weakness. Some people cry tears of joy so that is not weakness.
Any action is acceptable in war.
I gave this a 3 because there are different reasons for war. If an enemy has a gun pointed towards you have no choice but to shoot. I think it would be unfair if the action was the enemy sneak attacking.
Teenagers need discipline and rules because they can't control themselves.
They do because now a days it is dangerous out in the world and they are crazy. I gave this one a 5 and my kids will have discipline.
Only through personal sacrifice can someone create positive change.
I will give this a 3 because if I took a bullet for the president that would be a positive change for the U.S.A and for the president, but not so much for me. Also it could be a negative thing because for example the president could get shot and I would be blamed.
Generating compassion for your enemies is the only way to create peace.
I gave this a 3 because I if I get mad at Lizzie(for example) the next day I will apologize because I don't want them mad at me or drama. Depending who your enemy is for example Barack Obama generating compassion for Mitt Romney would possibly get him more votes. If one of the politicians running related to the people who don't have a voice or say in the world that person would get more votes.
