1. PARAPHRASING EXAMPLES PHIL 102 Hendricks Spring 2018
2. “If only there were superiors who delighted in [impartial caring and benefiting one another], who encouraged their practice through rewards and praise, and threatened those who violate them with penalties and punishments, I believe that the people would take to impartially caring for and benefitting one another …” (Mozi 76). If only there were rulers who appreciated them, who encouraged their practice and punished those who violated them, the people would value impartially caring for and benefiting one another.
3. “Killing an innocent person … is even more wrong than entering his stable and stealing his horses and cattle. … Up to this point, all the gentlemen of the world know well enough to condemn such actions and declare that they are wrong. But when it comes to the great wrong of attacking another state, they do not know enough to condemn it” (Mozi 77). Killing an innocent person is even more wrong than stealing his horses and cattle. … Everyone knows to condemn killing and say it is wrong. But when it comes to attacking another state, they do not condemn it.
4. “But now people see a small wrong and know enough to condemn it but see the great wrong of attacking another state and do not know enough to condemn it. Rather, they praise this and declare that it is the right thing to do. Can they be said to understand the difference between right and wrong?” (Mozi 78). How would you paraphrase this in your own words?
