Among the three premises provided by Trenholm, rationality, perfectibility, and mutability, I agree with the first and last. I feel that rationality seems very understandable because it states that people are capable of discovering truth through logical analysis. The average person has the tools to make the right decisions and there are several institutions in tact that allow for this view such as jurys and enterprise.
The second premise, perfectibility is a bit hard for me to grasp because I feel that it should be the other way around. We are born innocent rather than sinned.
The last one, is one that I feel like i can relate to the most. I believe that people are shaped by enviornmental factors and in order to better themsleves, they need to look within their psychological and physical self.
