Statistics are the final word on every issue? True or false
Answer: False
Explanation:
Statistics are the final word on most issues but not every issue. When making a decision, it is true that numbers do not lie and so it is very hard to refute statistics. Sometimes however, people go against the statistics or rather interpret them in a way they are not to be interpreted thereby negating them.
Other things can go wrong with statistics as well such as research bias. The people doing the research and coming up with the statistics might control the research to make it bring out some biased statistics. People on seeing this, can then go against the numbers.
What two “sects” does Hume describe?
David Hume’s various writings concerning problems of religion are among the most important and influential contributions on this topic. In these writings Hume advances a systematic, sceptical critique of the philosophical foundations of various theological systems. Whatever interpretation one takes of Hume’s philosophy as a whole, it is certainly true that one of his most basic philosophical objectives is to discredit the doctrines and dogmas of traditional theistic belief. There are, however, some significant points of disagreement about the exact nature and extent of Hume’s irreligious intentions. One of the most important of these is whether Hume’s sceptical position leads him to a view that can be properly characterized as “atheism”.
The primary aims of this article are: (1) to give an account of Hume’s main arguments as they touch on various particular issues relating to religion; and (2) to answer to the question concerning the general character of Hume’s commitments on this subject.
1. Religious Philosophers and Speculative Atheists
2. Empiricism, Scepticism and the Very Idea of God
3. The Cosmological Argument and God’s Necessary-Existence
4. The Argument from Design
5. The Problem of Evil
6. Miracles
7. Immortality and a Future State
8. Hume’s Genealogy of Religion: Causes and Dynamics of Religious Belief
9. Religion and Morality
10. Was Hume an Atheist?

A short story with Snowman, haunted house and beach ball...please help
Answer:
One morning, a 7 year old boy named Trey looks outside of his house. He sees that it's snowing. His face brightens, His heart races, and his hands fumbling to put on his snow gear. Before his hand reaches for the handle of the door, his mother intervenes between both Trey and the door. She says: "Trey I told you to go throw that beach ball away! It's been sitting there since spring! And it's all deflated now." Trey, still happy that he gets to go outside anyway, says: "Yes Ma'm" he goes through the back door into the backyard. He sees the deflated beach ball, but instead decides to make snow man. As his back yard piles up with snow, Trey slowly gets tired and bored. He decides to visit his friend Henry's house to invite him over to play. Trey exits his backyard and onto the sidewalk next to the street. He walks pass several houses before he reaches the end of his neighborhood. As Trey walks up to Henry's house, Trey wonders why Henry would live in such a beat down, dark, old, and scary house. It was 2 stories tall, had 4 windows, 2 on the top and 2 on the bottom, and it was wearing down due to old age. The house looked abandoned. Before Trey could walk in, an old man yells from across the next house: "I wouldn't go in there if I was you! People say it's a haunted house!" Trey walks in anyway.

Comment:Do I get brainly now? (:
25 points! Brainliest to the first honest opinion! I'm writing a novel and I need to get someones honest opinion on if it's a good start.
Let me tell you a story, starting from the beginning.
"No no no no no no no!" Winter raced through he woods trying to find a safe place to hide.
There was no place to hide. She was alone.
She couldn't turn back, because behind her was a killer. A killer who had slaughtered her entire family, and is now after her. She is scared, hurt and desperately trying to get away. Not only had the killer murdered her family, the killer was a demon, a demon who was once her lover.
He promised her love, love beyond anything that her world can offer. But as time passed, she realized how much of a monster he was. His true sadistic nature revealed itself, and she broke up with him. He would not take that. He loved her, and he was insane, so he promised her he would be back, and he would destroy everyone she ever loved. He was going to give her a fate worse than death, by sending her somewhere she could never escape, somewhere that is completely inhuman. He was sending her to a practical hell, and she had no idea as to where or what it was.
So there I was, running for my life from the man who trapped me and promised me eternal suffering. I know i'm not going to escape but I have to try. I just have to. There's no way I can face what he has in mind, not after all he's done to me in the past. I can only imagine the horrors he had in store for me in this hell he plans to send me to.
I stop and hide in a hollowed out tree. I know i'm probably not safe there, but I just sit there and wait. I'm only human, so you can't blame me for wanting to feel safe in an enclosed space, and I can only run for so long.
"Winter~ Come on out my snowflake, I'm not going to hurt you, I just want to see you" I could hear his voice echoing, his voice alone sent shivers through me. He sounds like a psychopath, let me rephrase that, he is a psycho.
"WINTER! I know you're hiding, i can't hear your footsteps anymore." He was close "Come. out. now." My hear rate increased ten times over as I heard him come closer and closer. Then i saw him, he was right in front of me, i didn't know if he could see me, but i assumed he did considering how he yanked me out by my arm.
He held my arms tight and just smiled at me. I stared in his eyes, mine full of fear. I couldn't move, there was nothing I could do. so he dragged me back to my house, the same house that he turned to a slaughterhouse for my family.

2. They'll return his money as long as he has the original receipt.

3. We won't be able to go to Paris unless we have enough money.
"Unless" is and can be used to mean the same as "if" for it presents a condition for a successful 'action/result'.
4. If only we had gone to the party yesterday.
Using "if only" in the sentence presents the same feeling of regret in "what a shame".
5. You'll be able to contact her any time in case you need her help.
The use of the phrase "in case" presents the same intention of a need and replaced the word "because".

Surrender Speech
by Black Hawk
1832
You have taken me prisoner with all my warriors. I am much grieved, for I expected, if I did not defeat you, to hold out much longer, and give you more trouble before I surrendered. I tried hard to bring you into ambush, but your last general understands Indian fighting. The first one was not so wise. When I saw that I could not beat you by Indian fighting, I determined to rush on you, and fight you face to face. I fought hard. But your guns were well aimed. The bullets flew like birds in the air, and whizzed by our ears like the wind through the trees in the winter. My warriors fell around me; it began to look dismal. I saw my evil day at hand. The sun rose dim on us in the morning, and at night it sunk in a dark cloud, and looked like a ball of fire. That was the last sun that shone on Black Hawk. His heart is dead, and no longer beats quick in his bosom. He is now a prisoner to the white men; they will do with him as they wish. But he can stand torture, and is not afraid of death. He is no coward. Black Hawk is an Indian.
He has done nothing for which an Indian ought to be ashamed. He has fought for his countrymen, the squaws and papooses, against white men, who came, year after year, to cheat them and take away their lands. You know the cause of our making war. It is known to all white men. They ought to be ashamed of it. The white men despise the Indians, and drive them from their homes. But the Indians are not deceitful. The white men speak bad of the Indian, and look at him spitefully. But the Indian does not tell lies; Indians do not steal.
An Indian who is as bad as the white men, could not live in our nation; he would be put to death, and eat [sic] up by the wolves. The white men are bad school-masters; they carry false looks, and deal in false actions; they smile in the face of the poor Indian to cheat him; they shake them by the hand to gain their confidence, to make them drunk, to deceive them, and ruin our wives. We told them to let us alone; but they followed on and beset our paths, and they coiled themselves among us like the snake. They poisoned us by their touch. We were not safe. We lived in danger. We were becoming like them, hypocrites and liars, adulterers, lazy drones, all talkers, and no workers.
We looked up to the Great Spirit. We went to our great father. We were encouraged. His great council gave us fair words and big promises, but we got no satisfaction. Things were growing worse. There were no deer in the forest. The opossum and beaver were fled; the springs were drying up, and our squaws and papooses without victuals to keep them from starving; we called a great council and built a large fire. The spirit of our fathers arose and spoke to us to avenge our wrongs or die . . . . We set up the war-whoop, and dug up the tomahawk; our knives were ready, and the heart of Black Hawk swelled high in his bosom when he led his warriors to battle. He is satisfied. He will go to the world of spirits contented. He has done his duty. His father will meet him there, and commend him.
Black Hawk is a true Indian, and disdains to cry like a woman. He feels for his wife, his children and friends. But he does not care for himself. He cares for his nation and the Indians. They will suffer. He laments their fate. The white men do not scalp the head; but they do worse—they poison the heart, it is not pure with them. His countrymen will not be scalped, but they will, in a few years, become like the white men, so that you can’t trust them, and there must be, as in the white settlements, nearly as many officers as men, to take care of them and keep them in order.
Farewell, my nation. Black Hawk tried to save you, and avenge your wrongs. He drank the blood of some of the whites. He has been taken prisoner, and his plans are stopped. He can do no more. He is near his end. His sun is setting, and he will rise no more. Farewell to Black Hawk.
Read this excerpt from the last paragraph of the speech.
Farewell, my nation. Black Hawk tried to save you, and avenge your wrongs. He drank the blood of some of the whites.
How does Black Hawk use rhetoric to advance his purpose in this excerpt?
A.) He directly addresses his nation because he does not intend for the white men to hear the last paragraph of his speech.
B.) He uses imagery to evoke feelings of remorse to show that he regrets his actions toward the white men.
C.) He uses imagery to paint a picture of the wrongs he tried to avenge, which furthers his purpose of describing the white men’s evils.
D.) He directly addresses his nation to show that even though he is surrendering, he still has allegiance to his nation.
