Prompt: Is it important to question the ideas and decisions of people in positions of authority?
Essay: Questing authority is sometimes the real key to ending the wrong doings that are inflicted and can be very essential. Despite the need for authority, there have been many times when the position of authority was wrong and even corrupted. For instant, back in the 1400s, Vlad Dracul was a big authority figure among his people, but that does not mean that his methods and ideas were exactly just. There are two types of general ideas of the position of authority. One is the idea where authority helps keep people in line and a better society while the other type of authority leads to more of a dictatorship. It is important for people to know what type of authority is being lead because not only can authority be a rule of just and leadership, but it can also be a devastating rule that can go against the humanity of a person.When authority begins to take away the rights of humans, then it is time for ideas to be expressed. If it were not for the questioning of authority before then our world would not be as much advance as it is now because we would still be listening to racist and sexist leaders that have kept the human race from coming together and evolving because of their ideas of separating and labeling those who were superior or inferior.
