is it A
2. Natural law:
A. supersedes all other laws.
B. is universal.
C. is the basis of the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights.
D. All of the above
im confused between B and D
I agree with you about 1.
For 2, I'd put D ... but I understand your dilemma.
To answer the first question, deterrence occurs when we discourage offenders from repeating offenses or discourage others by example. So, the correct answer is A.
Now, let's consider the second question about natural law. Natural law refers to a set of moral principles or ethical standards that are considered to be inherent in human nature. It is often seen as a universal law that supersedes man-made laws.
While it is true that natural law is considered to be universal and supersedes all other laws, it is not specifically the basis of the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights. The United Nations Declaration of Human Rights is a document that outlines fundamental human rights and freedoms, but it does not rely solely on the concept of natural law.
Therefore, the correct answer for the second question is B - natural law is universal, but not the basis of the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights.
