Hello class,

This post will be answering the question “Do you believe in the rationality, perfectibility and mutability premises.

The rationality premise is based upon the idea that people can be trusted to make good decisions. Even though this theory is possible, I do not believe that it is can always be trusted even at the highest level of our government. We as a nation have been showed many times by our government that they have lied, put us in debt with other countries, and spent money on unnecessary things rather than getting our soldiers out of Iraq. In this case the government as a social institution has not proved to me that we can always trust them.

I believe there is too much corruption. I find the perfectibility premise is based upon more so on religion. I do believe that someone can better themselves through giving the effort and having self control over certain situations to make people trust them, and for them to have a sense of being perfect/good heart in there mind. The mutability premise is the belief in which I completely agree upon. The environment in which one grows up in is where they will pick up all the behaviors and stereotypes of the groups they are associated with. Education is definitely the way to improve a persons intellectual thinking, and the way they will perceive situations outside of the narrow minded way they would have see it without the proper education. Usually when people are uneducated they only see situations through one-sided opinions.
