Honor and dishonor.
Each of us has encountered people of honor. People who can selflessly help a person. Such people can come to the aid of even a stranger without demanding anything in return. But there is also a dark side of honor, one that gains strength day by day. Dishonor is a negative quality of a person, which is expressed in meanness, deceit, deceit and betrayal. Dishonest people value only their ego; they help others for their own benefit. Can such people be trusted? Can you rely on them in difficult times? Of course not.
Today we understand that dishonor is growing, gaining momentum, while destroying the moral values of a person. Nowadays it is difficult to find a person who will help, understand and console.
“Take care of your honor from a young age,” this is exactly the epigraph of Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin’s story “The Captain’s Daughter.” The concept of honor became central to the work. Honor is decency, the moral purity of heroes, such as Pyotr Grinev, his parents, the entire family of Captain Mironov; This is military honor, loyalty to the oath, this, by and large, is love for the Motherland. The story contrasts Pyotr Grinev and Alexey Shvabrin. Both are young, of the noble class, officers, but how different they are in character and moral principles. Grinev is a man of honor, whether it concerns his relationship with Masha Mironova, or his loyalty to the oath, perseverance to the end during the Pugachev rebellion. Without honor and conscience Alexey Shvabrin. He is rude to Masha, it costs him nothing to go over to the rebels, violating the officer’s honor. Captain Mironov, commandant of the Belogorsk fortress, evokes deep sympathy. He did not lose his dignity, remained faithful to his oath, and did not bend his knee to Pugachev. In the Grinev family, the concept of honor was the basis of the character of Father Petrusha. Despite the fact that Peter, like all children, loved to play pranks, the main thing was brought up in him - human dignity, decency, and this is honor. The hero shows it by returning the gambling debt and not being humiliated by betrayal, as Shvabrin did.
Let us turn to the work “Song about Tsar Ivan Vasilyevich, the young guardsman and the daring merchant Kalashnikov” by Mikhail Yuryevich Lermontov. The writer touches on one of the most important problems facing man - the problem of honor. How to protect the honor of yourself and your loved ones, no matter what, how to remain human in any situation?
The action takes place in the distant sixteenth century, during the reign of Ivan the Terrible, when the guardsmen could commit outrages, knowing that they would not be punished by the tsar. Kiribeevich is shown as such a guardsman, who, without thinking about the fate of the woman, Alena Dmitrievna, puts her in a terrible position. The neighbors see him trying to caress her, a married woman, which in those years was considered the greatest sin. Shame on an innocent woman. Her husband, the merchant Kalashnikov, is outraged and challenges the guardsman to open battle. Defending the honor of his wife and family, he went to the duel, realizing that he would not have mercy from the king in any case. And here a duel is played out between truth, honor and dishonor. Because of a man devoid of morality, the noble Kalashnikov dies, his children are left without a father, and a young innocent girl is left a widow. So Kiribeevich ruined the life not only of himself, but also of the woman he loved. And all because of this, that a person who does not have spiritual values will never be able to comprehend true love, which leads to good deeds, in which honor remains pure and innocent. This work teaches a lot: that you always need to defend the honor of your family and loved ones, and not to offend anyone.
In conclusion, I would like to call people to conscience. To what has always been the concept of honor. Honor is one of the highest moral qualities of a person. It is formed from childhood. After all, the foundations of human dignity are a long and thorny path from selfishness to the establishment of moral principles. From person to person, from generation to generation, the basics of honor, etiquette and human dignity have been passed on, and only the person himself chooses which moral ideals to choose as a guide in this life. So let us not be dishonest people, let us not become like those who have already been swallowed up by their own ego, selfishness and selfishness. After all, the manifestation of honor is a feat not only for oneself, but also for the whole world!

It is better to be poor with honor than rich with dishonor.
Honor... What is it? Honor is the moral qualities of a person, his principles worthy of respect and pride, this is a high spiritual force that can keep a person from meanness, betrayal, lies and cowardice. Without honor a person has no real life. It is better to be poor with honor than rich with dishonor.
Classics of world fiction have created many works that tell about heroes who have different attitudes to the concept of honor and dignity. Thus, in the prose poem “The Counterfeit Coin” by Charles Baudelaire, the meanness of man and the choice of dishonor are shown. The main character gives a poor man a counterfeit coin, not thinking that this unfortunate man might be arrested. An arrest was the least that could be done; he could have been flogged, beaten, or even simply killed. This poor fellow's life is already not so good, but it will become even worse. The man who gave this coin committed a dishonorable act; he chose wealth instead of honor, although one coin would not have made him poor. The author wants to convey to us the idea that it is unforgivable to be evil, and even worse - to do evil out of stupidity. This is the most dishonest thing! Even the kindest deed can conceal great meanness in its depths.
In Nikolai Vasilyevich Gogol’s poem “Dead Souls,” the main character Pavel Ivanovich Chichikov serves as a vivid example of dishonor. Throughout the poem he deceives people for his own benefit. Pavel Ivanovich wanted to get rich by buying up “dead souls.” These were documents for the ownership of peasants who died but were considered alive. Chichikov buys up “dead souls” in order to deceive the entire society. Pavel Ivanovich did not think about people, he blatantly lied to them and did everything for himself. Looking at these two examples, we see that more often people choose wealth. But I believe that it is better to be poor with honor than rich with dishonor.
“Honor is like a precious stone: the slightest spot takes away its shine and takes away all its value,” Edmond Pierre Beauchaine once said. Yes, this is indeed true. And everyone, sooner or later, will have to decide how to live - with honor or without it.

Where do dishonest people come from?
Dishonor is a negative quality of a person, which is expressed in meanness, deceit, deceit and betrayal. It entails shame, destruction of oneself as an individual. Even in the most difficult moment, a person must continue to follow an honest path, without doubting for a second. From birth, parents raise their children to be honest, so where do dishonest people come from?
It seems that different answers can be given to this question, but I believe that dishonor is, first of all, a lack of respect for oneself and others. Therefore, it is very important that we understand that the main values in life are honor and conscience. But, unfortunately, not everyone understands this and chooses the wrong path. By committing any deception, we are approaching dishonor. And with each subsequent betrayal we become dishonest.
The theme of dishonor is touched upon in the story “The Captain's Daughter” by Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin. In this work, two heroes are contrasted: Pyotr Grinev and Alexey Shvabrin. You can judge a person by his actions in difficult times. For the heroes, the test was the capture of the Belogorsk fortress by Pugachev, where Shvabrin showed his dishonor. He saves his life by deception. We see him on the side of the rebels, while whispering something in Pugachev’s ear. Grinev is ready to share the fate of Captain Mironov and stand for his Motherland.
Let us turn to Leo Nikolaevich Tolstoy’s novel “War and Peace”. The main character Anatol Kuragin is an irresponsible and hypocritical person. He does not think about the consequences of his actions, does not think about the future and does not pay attention to the opinions of others. Kuragin's dishonor is his desire to marry Marya Bolkonskaya because of her wealth. It shows how the hero, for his own good and his own benefit, is ready for any dishonorable act. The author wants to convey to us that a dishonest person is ready to commit a vile act for his own benefit.
Summarizing what has been said, we can conclude that dishonor means the loss of one’s moral character. Having acted dishonestly once, a person cannot stop, becoming a traitor and a liar. We often meet dishonest people in our time, but I would like there to be as many honest people as possible.

Have you ever wondered how many more years are left for humanity?
There are many variations of answers to this, but this article talks about what can affect the duration of human existence on the beautiful planet Earth: 25 reasons why humans will become extinct in 1000 years.
This topical topic has been raised several times. Before the Industrial Revolution, the question of how to provide so many people with everything they needed was not so important. Of course, railways, steam engines and large farms came to the rescue in time, but where is the guarantee that luck will accompany humanity for another 10 centuries?
2. Nuclear explosion
Launching a nuclear warhead is a piece of cake, well, seriously - I pressed the button... and... I got the result! Will people be able to control themselves, and if so, for how long, that is the question. In the modern world, it is becoming increasingly difficult to do this, since the power of a state has begun to be measured, including in the number of nuclear weapons.
Although US scientists have recently managed to develop the latest superantibiotics, humanity is rapidly approaching the time when all existing antibiotics will be powerless against evolved microbes and viruses. This leads to the fact that a person can die by cutting himself on a piece of paper.
It is unlikely, but still possible, that an explosion in a distant galaxy (supernova) that releases huge amounts of energy will have a long-term impact on our planet. Will this happen in the next 1000 years? Wait and see.
5. Change of magnetic poles
The Earth's magnetic poles have changed their positions several times before. Some scientists believe that this may have influenced pre-existing civilizations. Other scientists believe that no geomagnetic reversals led to the disappearance of ancient civilizations. In the near future, humanity will be forced to experience another change, but how to predict its impact..?
This is directly related to terrorism and the growing number of participants on the world stage. Whereas in the past terrorist organizations had to operate covertly in close proximity to the site of an attack, today they can cause harm around the world with the click of a button. This may not destroy humanity, but it will certainly create chaos, which in turn will lead to its extinction.
7. Depletion of natural resources
This may not lead directly to the extinction of humanity, but it may well lead to the end of civilization. And the end of civilization is a slippery slope, to say the least.
While the Large Hadron Collider certainly helps to understand how the world works, there is only a small chance that humans will be able to create a miniature black hole.
We are surrounded by water, but most of it is not drinkable. And with fresh water supplies dwindling, this could eventually lead to big trouble.
The fact that nothing to date has yet destroyed humanity may lead people to view apocalyptic events as unlikely, leading to a failure to prepare adequately.
Most people take food for granted. But at this rate, according to simple mathematical calculations, our planet will not be able to feed itself.
Thanks to advances in genetic engineering, “superhumans” are already a reality, but at what point do they stop being human? This could lead to the extinction of humanity as a result of artificially created evolution. What can stop governments in the race of superpowers?!
13. Gray slime
This is what scientists call a hypothetical doomsday scenario associated with the successes of molecular nanotechnology and predicting that uncontrolled self-replicating nanorobots will absorb all the Earth’s matter available to them, carrying out their self-reproduction program.
Continuing the topic of genetic engineering, it is worth noting that in the near future it will be possible to easily create some unpleasant things. This is almost the same thing as antibiotic resistance, only in this case it is not accidental, but deliberate.
15. Low population (lack of population)
So we've discussed the dangers of overpopulation, but what about the other side of the coin? According to some data, the more developed a state is, the less people living in it prefer to have children or not have them at all. It’s scary to think what will happen if people stop giving birth altogether?! Do you think this is funny? Then you are definitely not Japanese... The government there is banging its head against the wall trying to find a way to force young Japanese people to date. If they fail, Japan will face a demographic crisis, with Europe already nipping at its heels.
It's great that you're not wearing a tin foil hat, but listen. Most scientists agree with the theory of the existence of extraterrestrial life, and, most likely, it is more advanced than our civilization. It is for this reason that people like Stephen Hawking and Elon Musk oppose sending messages into space through the SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) program. If the aliens are able to understand our message, then they are either as smart as us... or much smarter. The second option is more likely.
Most solar storms are relatively harmless, although there have been cases where they have fried transformers and negatively affected the Earth's power grid. How much damage will a severe storm cause? People don't know this, but what they do know is that if the storm is powerful, it could easily throw the world into chaos.
Scientists note that there is a 1% chance that Mercury's orbit could become unstable due to Jupiter's gravitational pull. A simulation of this situation gives 4 options for the development of events: ejection from the solar system, fall into the Sun, collision with Venus or collision with Earth. The 1% probability refers to the lifetime of the Sun. So the likelihood of this happening within 1000 years is quite low. But what the hell is not joking?
It may not seem like a big deal, but our climate won't get any colder for the next 1,000 years.
The probability of an asteroid falling on Earth is small, although... you remember the story about dinosaurs... After all, once a year a stick shoots... Of course, humanity can avoid potential threats (provided that people are not too busy fighting each other) .
Climate change contributes to instability. One consequence of this instability is the possibility of a mega-tsunami. While they are unlikely to wipe out all life on the planet, the waves could be powerful enough to upset the balance and start a downward spiral.
22. Eruption of a giant volcano
All this is implausible, and purely hypothetically, people would probably find a way out, but don’t say “god” until you jump over...
23. Siri
This may sound stupid, like something out of some cheap sci-fi show, but if Siri randomly became self-aware... well, everyone has probably seen the Terminator movies...
In times of empires, the world is generally at peace because empires provide global order. First, it was the Roman Peace (Pax Romana), then the British Peace (Pax Britannica), and now the American Peace (Pax Americana). This time has become the most peaceful in the history of mankind, although it, like everything else, tends to end. Given the resistance to America's global influence both at home and abroad, it is likely that the United States will ultimately focus on domestic politics. What happens after? Most experts believe the most likely path is economic decline and disorder. Yes, you can’t tell from the news, but today people really live in the most peaceful era in history. For the first time, according to statistics, more people die from “old age” rather than from violence, especially for men. As stated earlier, this may change, especially after Pax American ends. Entropy is real...
There are forces that ensure the liberalization of human thought and easy access to information on the Internet, but the irony is that they also provide the injection of such truth that provokes hundreds of thousands of people into hostility. Will humanity find a way out of this difficult situation or will people just kill each other out of paranoia? Who knows? You can’t even confirm whether what is written in this article is true...
Honesty is a component of honor. Honesty is the ability to truthfully and confidently tell a person to his face everything you think. Is it easy to be honest? Does a person always tell the truth? What could lead him to deception? In fact, we cheat every day. But these lies to parents or friends are generally harmless. But when you lie in a situation of moral choice, when your future or someone's life depends on it.... This is where honesty becomes extremely necessary.
In the novel M.A. Bulgakov's "The Master and Margarita" the procurator of Judea Pontius Pilate faces the honesty of Yeshua Ha Nozri. During the interrogation, trying to save the wandering philosopher from death, he hints that he should lie. However, Yeshua does not understand or does not want to understand the hints and proclaims that telling the truth is easy and pleasant. And in the presence of the secretary and the convoy, he admits that soon there will be no power, because all power is violence against a person. Pilate does not accept this truth because he fears for his life. To admit this means to lose your post, and subsequently, possibly, your life. And he passes an unjust verdict on the wandering philosopher, sentencing him to death, although he did not kill, did not steal, did not do anything illegal. This act will torment Pilate for a long time, he will try to correct the mistake, but two millennia will pass, and only the Master will grant forgiveness to the procurator of Judea by writing a novel about him.
In V. Bykov’s book “Sotnikov,” the main character, sentenced to death, recalls his childhood. In his family it was customary to tell the truth. My mother believed in God, and my father was a man who fought in the Red Army and had a medal pistol. The boy really wanted to hold the Mauser in his hands and shoot from it. But my father categorically forbade touching the weapon, especially in his absence. One day, waking up at dawn, the boy discovered that no one was home. Finally he can play with daddy's gun. But when he picked it up, the Mauser fired. The mother immediately suggested that her son confess to his father what he had done, otherwise things would get worse. Sotnikov went to tell his father everything. He, of course, was outraged. But he relented, saying that his son did the right thing by telling him everything. “I guessed it myself,” he asked, and the boy quickly, nodding his head, answered: “Yes.” As he left his father's side, he blushed. After all, he lied. All his life, Sotnikov remembered his offense - a little lie. And the pangs of conscience did not go away, many years later. He was afraid or simply did not have time to think, and then it was scary to correct this mistake, but every time, remembering this incident, he felt remorse.
Question: Is it true that the love of asking a lot of questions can lead a person to trouble?
Answer: The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) was asked many questions. Some of these questions caused inconvenience to the Messenger of Allah, since they did not quite correspond to the rules of decency. Especially rich people liked to speak in whispers, expressing special desires. This also caused inconvenience to the Messenger of Allah (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam), but out of politeness, he listened to these people.
In this regard, the verse was revealed: “O you who believe! If you talk with the Messenger in secret, then precede your secret conversation with alms."(al-Mujadilah 58/12), and it was established as a sunnah to pay sadaqah before meeting the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam).
Also, people from all walks of life came to the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) and asked questions, wanting to know religion. And some of these people sometimes behaved inappropriately. However, the Messenger of Allah endured this in order to convey the truth to people.
When the verse was revealed: “People are obligated to Allah to perform the Hajj to the House (Kaaba) if they are able to complete this journey.”(Ali Imran 3/97), one person asked: “O Messenger of Allah! Should we perform Hajj every year?” However, the Messenger of Allah remained silent. But after this man repeated his question several times, he said: “Fardom is performing Hajj once in a lifetime.”. In connection with this event the following verse was revealed: “O you who believe! Don't ask about things that will upset you if they become known to you."
Then the Messenger of Allah (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) said: “If I had said “Yes” to you, then the annual Hajj would have become obligatory for you, and you would not have been able to complete it.”. And after that, pointing out the danger of unnecessary questions, he said: “Don’t touch me until I tell you something myself. Because those who came before you were destroyed because they asked too many questions and argued with their prophets. Therefore, avoid what I warn you against. And try to do what I command you.”
Some people, coming to the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam), asked him, for example, such inappropriate questions: “When a man and a woman enter into an intimate relationship, what determines the birth of a boy or a girl?” Asking such questions to the prophet is indecent and contrary to adab. It is precisely such questions that the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) warned against.
