Undoubtedly Gandhi's image will, like other titans of the 20th century, become used to sell ever more improbable items. It is in the nature of the modern age to co-opt greatness to peddle the mundane for exorbitant prices. But Gandhi's advice to be "the change you want to see in the world" is the moral slogan of everyone who seeks to alter the globe for the better – not least for President Obama, who has publicly acknowledged his debt to the Mahatma.
  • It is not therefore surprising to see that the ruthless exploitation of the Mahatma (great soul) is not limited to penmakers.

The litany of misdeeds on Wall Street is long, and didn't start in 2011. But it has become apparent that the recession is not going to deal an equally tough blow to the wealthiest Americans than to the rest of the country. Unemployment rates have remained stubbornly high — nearly 14 million people in the U.S. still can't find work. Meanwhile, CEO pay and Wall Street bonuses have rebounded spectacularly, and sales at luxury retailers are soaring again — facts that the Occupy Wall Street protesters, who say they represent “the 99%”, are quick to point out. It's not clear that the financial industry and the rich in general created the U.S.'s uneven economic playing field. __________________________________

A paragraph is given below from which the last sentence has been deleted. From the given options,
choose the one that completes the paragraph in the most appropriate way.
So an atheist is someone who denies the existence of a god with the characteristics as mentioned.
In other words: he denies the existence of 'God'. We find this approach not only with Nagel, but also
with Robin Le Poidevin, Daniel Harbour and Paul Edwards. Atheism as a-theism has clear advantages.
We know what we're talking about, and an impressive tradition in the history of Western thought can
be interpreted as a discussion of the existence of a God with clearly-definable characteristics.
  • Discussions about the existence of God are discussions about the compatibility of the characteristics ascribed to the divine in the theistic tradition.
  • Thinkers from all three faiths grappled with the general philosophical problems that needed solving.
