Read the Prologue and Chapter 1 of Ted Dekker’s book, Chosen.  You will be taking what you observed in your reading and attempting to begin to formulate the intended worldview within this story.  The reality is that this is going to be hard.  An author does not often reveal all of these elements within the first chapter.  However, I don’t want that to deter you from trying to think on this deeper level.  The worldview framework elements are listed below again for your reference.  I want you to take what you read from Dekker’s work and respond to each element in three or more sentences (for each part – for a total of 12 sentences or more).  If you cannot find the element present in the reading so far,  I want you to say why and what would be needed for you to see that element present.  Please include any quotations from the reading to support your conclusions.  You will need to cite your source in MLA format as well.• Creation – Where did we come from and who are we? How did things come about?• Fall – What has gone wrong with the world? How did it get broken?• Redemption – How can it be fixed? What can we do to fix it?• Fulfillment – What was it supposed to be about to being with?

FIRST PAPER PROMPTPHIL 1000 PW2, Summer 2021—THIS PAPER IS DUE ON BLACKBOARD ON 6/30 BY 11:59 PM ESTThis paper is based off of Plato Gorgias book and other PDF files I will attach as well.Papers:The first paper will be based on a prompt I will provide and must be a minimum of 7 pages, double-spaced, Times New Roman 12-point font, with one-inch margins. I expect quotes and paraphrases from the material in the course, correctly cited, in any paper handed in to me. Any bibliographical or cover pages will not count toward that total and the seventh page must be 4/5ths full for it to be considered a complete page.In our readings for class we have seen two perspectives—Plato’s and Aristotle’s—on rhetoric/oratory (remember, both terms translate ????????). In this paper you will need to:1. Give an account of one of these thinker’s positions concerning rhetoric, using textual evidence, you must quote and paraphrasewith proper citation, to show that your recreation of the account is accurate.2. Give a preliminary evaluation of the account with argumentation for why the position is right or wrong.3. Provide some criticism of the position using the position of the other thinker, again with quotes or paraphrases properly cited, or a plausible account of their position.4. Write a response to the criticism from the perspective of the first position you described and indicate if you hold that this response is able to answer the criticism.Now, you need not ultimately develop the position that Plato and Aristotle are opposed in their views on ????????, but whatever position you take, you will need to argue for that position. The paper is an argumentative paper; it cannot consist only in comparing and contrasting Aristotle and Plato—you must stake out a position using those two thinkers. This means you will come down on a side and what side you will take should be indicated in a thesis at the start of your paper. Please reach out to me if you are unsure in any way with what you want to do; offering guidance with these sorts of things is part of my job.Do not forget that you will need to give a thesis at the start of your paper concerning your ultimate position, i.e. who you take to be correct and why, before you launch into the account-giving, and that what is in that thesis should direct what is relevant for the account that you give. Given the number of tasks in this prompt, the page minimum for the paper is 7 double-spaced pages, with 4/5ths of the last page needing to be full for it to count, and bibliographical or cover pages not counting.

Assignment #3:ETHICSINSTRUCTIONS: This assignment consists of a single short essay question. The main intent of this question is to ensure that you have a sound grasp of the fundamentals of the material presented in this unit. To that end, there is a 3 to 4 page (1000 words) limit for this question. I’m not so concerned with whether you agree with a particular author or not. The quality of your answer is based on your exposition of the competing positions, your comparative analysis of those positions and, lastly, your argument in support of the position you defend.As with all the assignments in this course, the short essay question is not designed to be a “research” question. There is no requirement to get material from external sources such as other authors, or reference websites, who have summarized, or criticized, the authors you are dealing with. In effect, including such material defeats your purpose in completing your essay because you are essentially telling me what some other person thought about the material you should be explaining and assessing. If you make reference to sources external to the course readings it will be detrimental to your mark. In some cases, I may ask you to re-work and submit your assignment. The point of your essay is to formulate the course material and develop your critical response. You can do this by working with the course material and developing your own ideas about the issue. The essay is simply your opportunity to set that out in paper.So, the material you need to successfully complete this assignment can be found in the online course materials available through the course site. There may also be some reading material that is part of the hard copy course readings package. You can find this information on the course materials section of our course website.The total possible mark for this assignment is 100 marks.Short Essay Question: (100 marks) Making reference to our course readings, provide a concise formulation of Utilitarianism.
