A1. During the Second World War, the German did many things to try to break Viktor Frankl, but they soon found that while they could destroy his physical state, but they could never destroy his resolve or attitude. 2.Yes, it is possible to choose ones attitide. You can choose how you approach certain things with a certain type of attitude. 3. I think fear would affect some one's attitude twards a subject, such as the holocaust. 4. Because your attitude is one of the only things that cannot be taken away from you. 5. I think the best example would be people's attitude twards school. Like my attitude twards school is just kindof a meloncholly attitude.
B1. I would have to disagree. Yes, love is a good emotion, but I don't feel I need it to be saved. 2. Eli cares for his father so much. If Eli did not love his father the way he did, his father would not have survived, because Eli loved him, and gave him Eli's rations of bread. 3. That statement kind-of confuses me. I think if the situation is bad enough, a person may find dispair in his attitude.

Genocide
Genocide is the systematic killing of all the people from a national, ethnic, or religious group, or an attempt to do so. The most popular of this would be the Holocaust. The Holocaust had over 6 million jews die over a period of 13 years. 1.5 million of them being children, due to selection and beatings. Men, women, and children were scapegoated because of their religion. The Nazis did not see "Jew" as a religion, but labeled it a race. The difference is that is to the Nazis', you had no choice to where if you were jewish or not. No chance to convert. if your father was jewish, you were jewish too. It ran in your blood, and you had no choice. How could a group of people possibly just not like another person because of what they believe. Just because they are not a certain race? Just because they don't have a certain hair color? Because they were not assyrian? It angers me! Just the fact that one person can not like somebody because of a belief. Well you know what? Fuck you hitler. You're crazy.
