The Philosophy of Thomas More

This is a video that I made as my presentation for english class. Everyone was assigned a philosopher, and was assigned an essay about them and we all have to teach the class about them in our own way. I think most people are going to physically stand in front of the class and present, but if I did that I'd totally fail. So here is the result. I worked all weekend on this, I'm so happy it's finally finished. It may be a little dorky and unproffesional, but I'm just glad I'm done!

*Afternote*
So it turned out that everyone did just stand up and talk except me and my friend David (he did a powerpoint presentation).
I got the highest mark in the class! Woot! 29/30 ^^. (My teacher is even thinking about changing it to be out of 29 or 28 instead so I might even end up getting more than 100%) hehehe.

I really love this, it is well done. However, I wish anime people would stop finding ways to incorporate anime into every single thing they do. It's also really disappointing that it's through these cartoons that young people have any interest in things like history.  It's almost as bad as having no mind of your own to rely on these types of sources for your inspiration and ideas. Sigh. If only intellect and comics could be separated so smart ppl won't all have punk hair.

@BreezesofConey haha I did this in grade 11 for a school project. I didn't put the anime in there because I had to incorporate anime into everything I do, I just needed some filler to put on the screen. I picked scenes that I thought went with what I was saying. I don't really have "punk" hair unless I decide to do it that way. I have never coloured it and it is just long. Keep in mind I made this video over the course of 2 evenings for highschool, I didn't put that much thought into it.

Heh, pretty good. You got all the important points. More was an impressive guy, it's not everybody who'd lose his head before doing what he thinks is wrong.

You are right about his persecution of heretics. There is evidence that he had people accused of heresy whipped and tortured at his house in Chelsea, and saw others condemned to death. There is some evidence that he may have regretted this later, possibly when he faced trial himself. I admire him for his intellect, and his strength in standing up for his beliefs, even unto death.
