1. Behind every great man is a great woman (every great man is supported, guided, helped and even pushed by a great woman).
I agree to this statement, because everyone is supported by others, at least one being a woman. Women give strong support no matter the situation. I've been supported by my mom for years, pushing me to what I aim to do and to get past what I dislike.
2. Witches, demons, and evil spirits actually exist.
I agree to this statement, because sometimes in the world there are some things that aren't humanely feasible or explainable. The supernatural are difficult to understand, but the actions that we see show proof of their existence and powers. I remember a couple friends and I rushing out of a bathroom when someone used an incantation to try and summon a spirit.
3. Sometimes it is necessary to do something wrong to get what you want.
I disagree to this statement, because there's usually a moral way to obtain something. When there a wrong way, there's always a right way to do something. Instead of stealing something, I could always just buy it.
4. What goes around comes around (karma).
I agree to this statement, because actions have consequences that have a chance of backfiring. Either a coincidence or simple revenge, anything can happen depending on your initial action. I showed my sister a scary video with a screaming witch once, and some time later a video similar to the one I showed popped back at me.
5. Human beings are easily tempted by things they want, even if it’s wrong.
I agree to this statement, because temptation is a human characteristic of the mind that reflects true desires. Depending on the mindset of the human's morality, the ease of temptation can vary and lead to a reality of actually performing the action they're tempted into. When a student was bullying me, for a while I was tempted to get back at him, even it it was wrong. I never went through with hurting him.
6. If someone feels that the ruler/s of his/her country is destroying the country, that person should try to overthrow the ruler/s.
I disagree with that statement, as it's only one person's feelings. If others share the same perspective as that person does, then the action has a chance of being carried out. People have disliked some presidents in the past, though nothing nothing drastic was done most of the time.
7. There are circumstances or events that justify murdering someone.
I disagree with that statement, as murdering doesn't justify anything. It leads to sadness and sometimes revenge, creating another scenario where someone will believe that murder is justice. It's been heard about a teen singer who was murdered. The brother of the victim considered revenge, but held back as it wasn't a good decision.
8. Success is worth any price you have to pay.
I disagree with that statement, as the goal to succeed isn't always the right one. The goal may be a bad one that's been made to look good by a different perspective, therefore leading to sometimes bad actions to achieve it. I succeeded once in getting another person to stop bothering me, but the steps I took were not right to do.
9. Kings are appointed by God, and they rule as His representatives on Earth.
I disagree with that statement, as it is the Pope who is God's representative on Earth. Kings are decided by bloodline or by recognition by the people. King Henry and all that followed were on the same royal bloodline.
10. Your astrological forecast (your horoscope) is a good indicator of how your day will go.
I agree with this statement, as reading it makes a psychological change in people. Given the forecast, it may turn the person's perspective of things to be better of worse. My horoscope once said I'll have a good day and a quiet read at night, which brightened my day because of the prediction.
11. Traitors should be executed.
I disagree with this statement, because execution resolves immediate hate and brings slow regret. Depending on what the traitor had done and their actions when pit in the light, they can change and make a better turn. One of my past friends betrayed me, but as years went by they slowly realized their actions and redeemed themselves.
