In Plato '' The Allegory of the Cave'' Socrates is trying to enlighten Glaucon. Socrates is explaining how situation in peoples life can make them feel like they're strap in darkness. He's uses metaphor to explain away to envision a vivid picture like marionette players acting as puppets chained from their necks and legs. Glaucon is in deep thought trying to analyze what Socrates really meant.

Supposes they are prisoner living in caves that never saw light before. All they know is what they saw like shadows and echo. Then one day the prisoners are set free from the cave of darkness into the light. It would take sometime for them to adjust to the light and there new environment, which would be reality. Socrates knew that trying to explain to the prisoners what they saw before was an illusion would be difficult.

Finally once they become accustom to reality it would be a lot for them to absorb like wisdom and understanding things. Then they would see clearly what life have to offer them. This is a lesson for everyone to still focus and stop taking life as a joke. I believe that's what Socrates is implying by all this.

In the article by Jeffrey Kluger '' I know The Truth, So don’t Bother Me with Facts’’, there are rumors and lies going around that's creating an uncomfortable environment for many people. It's been extremely confrontational over the planning mosque at ground zero in downtown Manhattan. Fear plays a critical role in human's behavior which makes other uncomfortable especially with religious practices. Recently researchers at Ohio State University did a study to found out about the misguided false beliefs that was circulating.

In a new study R. Kelly Garrett and Eric Nisbet, assistant professors from the communication at Ohio State University, the study was done with 750 people that they recruited. At least one of the many rumors was about the proposed Islamic cultural center. Individuals included what they believe and things they were familiar with. Both Garrett and Nisbet were surprised by how gullible these people were to insinuating picture or inflammatory quotes. Even in the greatest circumstances less than a third out of 750 people was willing to change their minds regardless of the contradiction and facts present.

I believe that for century human have been extremely gullible. It is becoming ridiculous with rumors about the planning of the mosque at ground zero. When will this madness stop !!! We will never know unless people learn how to communicate and respect one another, but I strongly feel building a mosque at ground zero will definitely start problems. Since there was an attack on 911 it would be inappropriate to build an Islamic cultural center. If they were able to build the center I would not want to travel no where near it because at any given time I feel there will be retaliation between Islam’s and Americans. I will start a battle that will continuously kill incident people and themselves.

In this essay I will be discussing inform I read about advertisements and how it’s toxic to our brain. Everywhere we turn ads are present in the super markets, bus stop, TV, radio etc…. Ads are there to pursue us to make purchases in corporate America. We have to be one step ahead of the game in today’s economy.

It’s extremely difficult to stay focus while traveling on a road trip. The moment I have to stop for gas I see food ads posted everywhere which make me tended to purchases food. The ads look so tasty my stomach begins to grille it’s like my stomach and the advertisement companies are working together.

In today’s economy you have to be very frugal and not let any advertisement pursue you to spend necessary money. Companies are extremely good at what they do far as playing mind games to make us purchase things. If you watch TV commercial it could brain wash you because of the enormous amount of things you see.

I would like to make the money that Advertisement Company is making one day. I hope to open up my our business in two years, so be aware cause I will be advertising my product as well. I will strife to pursue my customer in a satisfying way. In my conclusion ads are part of our daily life…..
