Monthly Blog - March
For my monthly blog this month I wanted to talk about the Superman Theory. First off I dont agree with this theory at all. When I look at a group of people, I don't see them as seperate groups of ordinary people and extraordinary people. That just doesn't make sense to me. This theory is basically saying that some people are above the rest of everyone else and are entitled to certain priviledges, such as they are above the law on some points. The one thing that bothers me about this is that who dictates if someone is extraordinary? What is stopping someone from doing whatever they want and just pleading that they were doing it for society and we should all just ignore their crimes. Now one part of the theory says that these supermen do things for the good of society so that means they should always be considered good guys. But if that means that they break laws and dont get punished, then that means that they are just setting up more chaos to happen. If one person is allowed to go above everyone else, what stops everyone else from thinking they are that important too? These supermen make no sense to me because it seems like even if they do some good, there are so many other bad consequences that could happen.
