Read the passage from "by the waters of babylon
how does visiting the place of the gods affect the
narrator?
it is not true what some of the tales say that the ground
there burns forever, for i have been there. here and there
were the marks and stains of the great burning, on the
ruins, that is true. but they were old marks and old stains. it
is not true either what some of our priests say that it is an
island covered with fogs and enchantments. it is not. it is a
great dead place-greater than any dead place we know
everywhere in it there are god-roads, though most are
cracked and broken everywhere there are the ruins of the
high towers of the gods
he discovers that it is unwise to have an inquiring mind
he learns that there is nothing supernatural to fear in
the destroyed city
he renounces everything he learned from the priests
and his father
he understands that the past has nothing of interest for
people of the present.

Which excerpt from tinker v. des moines shows how precedent support an argument? a. "as we shall discuss, the wearing of armbands in the circumstances of this case was entirely divorced from actually or potentially disruptive conduct by those participating in it. it was closely akin to 'pure speech' which, we have repeatedly held, is entitled to comprehensive protection under the first amendment. cf. cox v. louisiana, 379 u.s. 536, 555 (1965); adderley v. florida, 385 u.s. 39 (1966)." b. "while the absence of obscene remarks or boisterous and loud disorder perhaps justifies the court's statement that the few armband students did not actually 'disrupt' the classwork, i think the record overwhelmingly shows that the armbands did exactly what the elected school officials and principals foresaw they would." c. "i, for one, am not fully persuaded that school pupils are wise enough, even with this court's expert from washington, to run the 23,390 public school systems [n4] in our 50 states." d. "under our constitution, free speech is not a right that is given only to be so circumscribed that it exists in principle, but not in fact. freedom of expression would not truly exist if the right could be exercised only in an area that a benevolent government has provided as a safe haven for crackpots."
