Abortion as the Right of any Woman Under Any
Circumstances : A 5 page paper discussing abortion based essentially around the
book by Jonathan Glover entitled, "Causing Death and Saving Lives." The premise
is that a woman should be able to obtain an abortion regardless of the reasons. It is the

her. Other sources aside from Glover’s book are used to either support the idea or to
demonstrate the opposing views. Bibliography lists 4 sources. Abortri.wps
Abortion Ethics : 12 pages in
length. Throughout history, there has not likely been a more fiery or controversial
issue than that of abortion. Indeed, the ethics behind the act of aborting a fetus is what
lies at the core of the ongoing debate between two very strong-willed and opinionated
viewpoints. The ethical concerns that revolved around the abortion issue are those that
encompass a great many ideals – both religious and personal – that have to do
with an individual’s concept of right and wrong. To some, the ethical implications
mean allowing the woman her right to choose; to others, it is no different than murder.
This paper will discuss the various ethical viewpoints surrounding the controversial issue
of abortion. Bibliography lists 8 sources. Aborteth.wps

Abortion : A 5 page comparison of
two articles which argue on the issue of abortion. One article is from 1985 and is a
personal narrative of the famous actress Ali McGraw, who believes that abortion is the
right of the individual. Her rhetorical approach addresses the practical issues of
abortion as well as addressing the emotional issues involved that make the issue such a
volatile one. The other article is from 1995 and is the personal beliefs of an unknown
woman who is religious and sees abortion as terribly wrong. But while she starts out her
article with a bit of emotional rhetoric and adds such bits throughout, her rhetorical
approach is essential information based, much in the manner and style of a research paper.
Both articles make valid points, as both sides do often do, illustrating that it is still
just as an emotional topic today as it was three, or thirteen, years ago. Bibliography
lists 2 sources. AbortCA.wps
Medical Point of View on Moral and Ethical
Issues : A 6 page paper which examines six specific subjects requiring moral and
ethical judgments from a medical perspective. The six sections covered are patient
advocacy from a patient advocate point of view; the legal definition and responsibilities
of moral vs. ethical behavior; addressing and identifying difference between moral and
ethical behavior in the medical profession; a situation application in which ideas for a
student are proposed as to what to do when asked to participate in a first trimester
abortion patient believes is 5 months instead of 3; what to do when a member of the
surgical staff is impaired through substance abuse; and addressing ethical
responsibilities regarding research when asked to participate in ethical research
experiments. Bibliography lists 4 sources. MarMoral.wps
Application Of Functionalism To An
Ethnography : A 5 page paper discussing an ethnographic analysis of an abortion
clinic in terms of George Homan’s functionalist theory, which centered on the
evaluation and assessment of human groups, the activities in which they take part,
interactions between them, their sentiments and their norms. Ball (1967) describes the
abortion clinic personnel and patrons as deviant, but the functionalist view holds that it
serves a purpose because it is a part of the society. Bibliography lists 5 sources. Functionalism.wps
The Conflict of "Right-to-Life" vs
"Free Choice" According to Marx & Coser : This 5 page report
discusses the ongoing conflict among groups who support abortion rights and those groups
who oppose abortion through an application of both Karl Marx and Lewis Coser’s
opinions and approaches to conflict in society. Bibliography lists 2 sources. Ritefree.wps
Abortion-ProChoice : In 5 pages
the author discusses abortion from a prochoice point of view. Abortion is a woman's right.
It is a right that has been legal to all women of this nation for more than twenty-five
years. A woman's body is her own. Others do not have the right to tell her what to do with
her body. Bibliography lists 7 sources. Proabort.wps
Abortion : A 5 page comparison of two
articles which argue on the issue of abortion. One article is from 1985 and is a personal
narrative of the famous actress Ali McGraw, who believes that abortion is the right of the
individual. The other article is from 1995 and is the personal beliefs of an unknown woman
who is religious and sees abortion as terribly wrong. Both articles make valid points, as

it was three, or thirteen, years ago. Bibliography lists 2 sources. Amcgraw.wps
Personal Resistance & Abortion : A
5 page paper discussing the various positions of personal resistance in relationship to
the subject of abortion. Using abortion as a definite example the paper examines the

advertisements violate first amendment rights. Bibliography lists 18 sources. Alcohoad.wps
Is Alcoholism a Hereditary Disease ? - Yes !
: A 7 page research paper arguing quite strongly that alcoholism is, in fact, a
hereditary disease linked to our genes. Using the findings of specific studies in books
and journals, the writer debunks the myth that alcohol is a social disease and that the
only familial influences are those related to peer pressure and modeling. Both sides of
the argument are weighed, assessed, and the ultimately conclusion that alcoholism is
hereditary-- is reached. Bibliography lists 10 sources. Alcohere.wps
Alcoholism / Sin .. Not A Disease? :
A 26 page paper arguing that alcoholism, while manifesting physical symptoms and genetic
changes, is not in itself a disease, but rather a sin. The genetic evidence that
has been found quite likely is not the cause, but is rather the result of alcoholism, as
those genetic defects have been found only in true alcoholics. While researchers are adept
at describing the effects of other, less controversial, chemical compounds that arise and
are manifested in changes of gene expression, they seem to be unable to apply the same
methods of research to issues connected with alcoholism. Every recovering alcoholic who
has been reconciled with his God, either through restitution of a prior relationship or
his own first-time meeting understands the power of denial, and that denial of sin does
nothing to diminish its existence. Bibliography lists 30 sources in 50 footnotes. Sindis.wps
The Validity of Alcoholism as a Disease:
A 5 page paper exploring the possibilities that alcoholism is not, in fact, a disease. The
nature of disease is that it is sudden (at least in its discovery, if not in its
development) and that it is beyond the control of its victim. Fingarette makes intriguing
argument against the claim that alcoholism is a disease, but his lack of substantiation
prevents them from being seen as completely valid. Bibliography lists 1 source. Alcdis.wps

arguments and the paper concludes that perhaps a compromise in treatment of animals in
society can be reached. Bibliography lists 9 sources. Anhmn.wps
Animal Cruelty : In 5 pages the author
presents two clear arguments against cruelty to animals. There are many reason why animal
cruelty is wrong. The first refutation is that animal cruelty is against the law in most
states under one definition of the legislation or another. The second one is that it is
morally wrong to be cruel to animals, just as it is wrong to be cruel to other human
beings. Animals have rights that should be upheld. Bibliography lists 5 sources. Animcrul.wps

technological advancements that preclude much of animal testing, and a discussion of how
government regulation undermines this process. Bibliography lists 2 sources. Eudaimsm.wps

An Argument for the Legalization of Marijuana
: 8 pages in length. Although the writer of this essay does not necessarily endorse
the use of marijuana, (s)he agrees with the argument that it is
politically-incorrect to outlaw it in the United States. Very good points are made
from the history of marijuana's existence in the country as well as the similar case of
alcohol prohibition during the 1920's. The writer feels that the FDA should regulate the
drug so that smokers do not risk using pot that is sneakily mixed with other substances.
Medical evidence of marijuana's comparatively mild effects is presented and the report
concludes that the negative impacts of marijuana's ban are far worse than those that would
prevail if it were allowed to be sold openly and legally. Bibliography lists 4 sources. Marijle2.wps
An Argument for the Legalization of Marijuana
# 2 : A shorter, 5 page version of Marijle2.wps, in which the writer is
primarily concerned with the facts that : (1) there exists no solid argument against
the legalization of marijuana and (2) outlawing the drug has created the same negative
impacts that alcohol prohibition did during the 1920's. It is agreed that marijuana does
indeed pose some seriously harmful side effects, but that these are not necessarily any
worse than those produced by cigarette smoking-- a very legal activity (assumably because
of the industry's economic contribution, etc;) Bibliography lists 8 sources. Marijleg.wps
An Argument for the Legalization of
Marijuana # 3 : A 5 page research paper supporting the legalization of marijuana.

of the controversy, the evidence in support of not prescribing it, and the ethical
considerations which are pertinent--ultimately arguing in favor of one side. Bibliography
lists 6 sources. Medmarij.wps
Medical Marijuana : The thesis of this
10 page paper is that there is a medical necessity for the legal use of marijuana. There
is significant evidence that supports the benefits of THC, a chemical found in marijuana,
is beneficial for sufferers of cancer, AIDS and glaucoma. Though THC is available in
tablet form, many seriously ill patients cannot take the oral medication, and many
complain that the pill is ineffective. If the use of marijuana can significantly reduce
the suffering of severely ill individuals, it is a civic and political necessity to
promote legal use. Mednecc.wps

Marijuana as Medicine ? : 15 pages on
the historic controversy over marijuana's usefulness & legalization. The writer goes
into great detail about the drug's alleged medical value and elaborates what has been
discovered thus far. It is concluded that after all the evidence, federal court rulings,
and experiments, marijuana it seems, does indeed cloud the mind. But in this instance,
"the clouded minds are in government buildings," as marijuana has indeed shown
an outstanding level of usefulness for certain patients committed to hospital care.
Bibliography is missing. Legalmr2.wps

medicine has come up with legal drugs to treat these ailments, the moral/legal
implications of patients who insist on marijuana over pharmaceuticals. On the moral
issues, legislators opinions are provided, with a discussion of the current political

10 sources. Mareth.wps
Legalizing Drugs Would Not Be Beneficial : In
5 pages the author argues that legalizing drugs would not be beneficial. "There has
been a shroud of controversy surrounding the legalization of drugs. Legalizing drugs would
not be beneficial, although there are many who posit that it would. Drugs are harmful.
They have many effects that science is just now beginning to be able to measure and
understand. It is extremely difficult for people to get off of drugs. Legalizing them
would only make this matter worse." Bibliography lists 7 sources. Legldrug.wps

We Can’t Say NO to Drugs : An 11
page paper discussing the problem of drugs in America, as well as other parts of the
world, and why the war on drugs has failed. Drugs have always been with mankind as we seem
to carry an inherent need to consume mind altering substances. A literature review is
included which examines information which supports the notion that the war on drugs has
been, and is, failing. Following that is a research design which entails an
experiment/survey whereby proof is obtained towards the theory that we cant win the fight
against drugs. Then comes a section regarding analysis of the research and then a
conclusion. Bibliography contains 15 sources. Drugnowa.wps

facts, the argument is ultimately made that the I.R.S. should be abolished as it has no
place in a free & Democratic America. Bibliography lists 5 sources. Irshate.wps

be charged with murder. Many solutions to the drunk driving challenge have been explored
including raising taxes on liquor, police efforts, raising the drinking age, using special

page research paper which examines the evolution of DUI laws and shows how what was once a
minor offense as now become a charge with the possibility of ruining the defendant’s

the methods which are usually used to judge whether or not a person is impaired are
grossly inaccurate and create situations where the innocent can end up being wrongfully
accused. Bibliography lists 5 sources. DUI. doc.

Excessive Driving Speeds Cause Deaths :
6 pages in length. The issue to be dealt with in this paper is one addressing the fact

caused at slower, more prudent speeds. Promoting road safety is the function of speed
limit restrictions both on the highway and on surface streets, however, these
specifications are routinely ignored by motorists who are either perpetually late,
intoxicated or are merely the type of drivers who pay no regard to the law. Despite the
reason, statistics clearly show that excessive driving speeds are instrumental in
effecting road fatalities. Bibliography lists 5 sources. Speedy.wps

To Clone or Not to Clone ? A Look at
Biotechnology : This 5 page report briefly examines some of the controversies
raised on the subject of cloning. The body of evidence reported and the practical
application of scientific products supports the value of biotechnology, including cloning.
Among the many reasons to support arguments in favor of cloning is the idea that DNA probe

for the presence of pathogenic and spoilage organisms, bacterial and fungal toxins,
chemical contaminants (i.e., herbicides, pesticides, heavy metals), and biological
contaminants. Bibliography lists 7 sources. Clone.wps

Ethics of Genetic Engineering Through The Eyes
of Aristotle : Aristotle believed that an absolute moral standard was not
possible because morality is determined by behavior and outcome and these are governed by
the individual and the choices made by that individual. The individual is by definition
unique, which foregoes that each choice and outcome is unique. The concept of Plato's
"good" is seen in terms of the action and the result of the action, rather than
a predetermined, 'a priori', standard. Inasmuch as individuals dwell within a society,
there exists an ethical component to community behavior and is grounded on the
"purpose" of the behavior: the highest form of community behavior being for the
purpose of the 'good' of man. This 4 page paper examines the issue of genetic engineering
from the view presented by Aristotle in the Nicomachean Ethics. Bibliography lists 2
sources. Genengin.wps

government representatives. The paper proves that current opinion concerning cloning still
resides in the realm of chaos--worldwide. The paper posits that ultimate responsibility to
speak up on the issue is up to individuals. Bibliography lists 5 sources. Clone2.wps
The Ethical Controversy of Cloning : A 4
page paper looking at the very controversial topic of cloning a human being from a
theological and social standpoint. The paper concludes that the issue is really not one of
ethics at all, but of theology, having to do with the nature of the human soul.

The Relationship Between Race & the Use

death penalty is alive and well in America. It is also a very prejudicial institution. The
death penalty is the ultimate punishment anyone can face. In addition, the persons on
death row must remain there for years awaiting execution. For the innocent member of a
racial minority, this is a difficult pill to swallow, but one that has been forced upon
them in manners that are quite reprehensible due to the discrimination involved.

Amendment : A 6 page essay looking at issues presented by two authors, Thomas
Emerson and Kent Greenawalt, in their books A System of Freedom of Expression and Fighting

Should Burning the Flag be a Crime ? : A
4 page essay in which the writer argues that although thematically disrespectful, a 'flag
burning amendment' is merely an example of national insecurity, not patriotism. It is
asserted that more important rights precede such an amendment and that there is no viable
reason to punish people for burning the American flag as an act of free expression. The
flag is a symbol of freedom but it, in itself, is not freedom. Bibliography lists 3
sources. Flagburn.wps
Why Not Burn the Flag ? : An 8 page
argumentative report against allowing the burning of the American flag. In 1989, the
Supreme Court overturned both the conviction of Gregory (Joey) Johnson and the laws under
which he was convicted for burning a flag in Dallas during the 1984 Republican National
Convention. The Supreme Court cited the Constitution’s protection of free speech
under the First Amendment, but astute authors (and citizens) noted that there was usually
little, if any, speech involved in burning a flag. The position taken in the paper is that
other avenues, including speech, are available for those unhappy with the state of the
country. Bibliography lists numerous sources. Burning.wps

Censorship In School Is Not Right :
6 pages in length. To be told what is permissible reading material and what is not is a
direct violation of the First Amendment of the Constitution. Yet all across the country,
school library shelves are being stripped of books that certain individuals and groups
deem as unacceptable. Censorship is alive and well in the United States; its ripple effect
on America's students is often as damaging as reading one of many so-called controversial
books. The writer reveals why censorship in today's schools is both a violation of First
Amendment rights, as well as a ploy for radicals and liberals alike to control the minds
of our children. Schlcens.wps
Censorship / Unacceptable : An 8
page paper describing various forms of censorship. Attention to the affect on children is

Censoring the Internet : A 5 page
argument against censoring the Internet. The main focus of the paper deals with the issue
of pornography on the Internet since this is the subject with the most attention and
conflict. Pornography is a freedom of speech and while we do not want our children to
watch, or see, it, this does not mean we should restrict others. Adults should be
responsible for what the children have access to and as such this should be the primary
method of censorship. Bibliography lists 5 sources. Nonet.wps
Pros & Cons of Having Society Determine
Punishment for Crime : In 10 pages the author discusses the pros and cons of
having society determine punishment for crime. "Crime and punishment for crime has
been around since the beginning of time. Looking to the importance of this, one will find
that over the ages there have been different strategies for the punishment of crimes. As
civilization has become more sophisticated, so has the punishment, which has ranged from
flagellation, to hanging, to crucifixion, to exile, to prison, to the sentence of death,
as in capital punishment. Punishment for crime has gone through many changes in the last
decade. Today the death penalty is used quite frequently. Society has an impact on the
type of punishment given for varying offenses" Bibliography lists 11 sources. Proscons.wps
Mandatory Drug Testing in the Workplace :
An 8 report on the controversial issue of mandatory drug testing in the workplace. The

Should Drug Testing Be Required of High School
Athletes? : A 9 page paper arguing against the blanket testing of high school
athletes for indications of drug use. The proliferation of drug use among athletes has
caused many to decide that all of them should be tested, regardless of age. There are many
reasons, however, that high school athletes should be exempted from such testing, not the
least of which is the Fourth Amendment. Even though the Constitution protects the
country’s citizens from undue search, there are other reasons to abandon drug testing
of high school athletes, most of which revolve around lessons in physiology and the
possibilities of economic gain from high school contests. Bibliography lists 7 sources. Drugtst.wps

Undocumented Immigrants Should Be Denied
Services : 10 pages in length. Undocumented immigrants are taking over the entire
country. Initially, they sought out the United States as a haven from their own country's
less-than-inviting lifestyle. America represented a new start for many who suffered
repression and the inability to make lives of their own. Crossing the border into the
United States has changed all of that, because once here they are not only able to obtain
good paying jobs -- usually without the added burden of paying taxes -- and a decent place
to live, but they have also tapped into America's health and educational systems, as well.
The writer addresses various reasons why illegal aliens are not entitled to the same level
of health care and educational services that are provided for taxpaying legal citizens.

Should English Be Our Official Language?

the U.S.'s official language. However, the one area that will suffer most is in education
and it is necessity to retain bilingualism in schools to meet the needs not only of the

should not be allowed. Bibliography lists 3 sources. Euasia.wps
Ethics Of Euthanasia/Physician-Assisted Suicide
: 10 pages in length. The argument that has sent the world into a tailspin is whether
or not people who are suffering from terminal or excruciatingly painful illnesses have the
right to take their own lives with the help of physician-assisted suicide. Proponents
contend that what one does with one's life is of no consequence to anyone else -- that it
is both ethical and humane to allow someone to be relieved of constant discomfort. On the
other hand, critics claim that the act of euthanasia is nothing more than a fabricated
form of murder. Both sides have pertinent points to ponder when it comes to understanding
and assessing the conflict, but euthanasia supporters have a significantly stronger
argument. The writer discusses that physician-assisted suicide is not only the right thing
to do for someone seeking such a decision, but it is ethical and humane for a physician to
abide by the patient's wish. Bibliography lists 10 sources. Eutheth.wps
Euthanasia / A Need & a Right : An

Government -Limit Spending On The Terminally Ill

money on prolonging the life of hopelessly-ill patients and that changing this will

Legalization of Gambling in New York State :
An 11 page paper arguing that New York State should indeed take the final step to
fully-legalized casino gambling. The state has operated the lottery since 1967, boasting
that they profit more than a billion dollars each year from it. Off-track betting has been
legal since 1971, yet legislators resist legalizing casino gambling on "moral"
grounds, citing the 1.2% of the country’s general population who are compulsive
gamblers. The Indian tribe commonly known as the Mohawks (the Oneida Nation) have had a
highly successful casino in operation since 1993, breathing new life into a severely
depressed area. Most of upstate New York is farm country, with little attraction for
tourists, but the experience of the Oneida Indians shows that people all over the state
are interested in legal gaming: more than 7,000 appeared on the casino’s opening day.

the activities of gay and lesbian couples into mainstream society. The writer addresses
various issues surrounding same-sex marriages, as well as takes the stand that they are

Gays in the Military & Controversy

laws which attempt to ban homosexuals from entry in the U.S. armed forces. The writer
feels that these laws are, for the most part, ridiculous as they put the real purpose of
the military (to protect our country), second behind superficial social ones. While both
sides of the issues are examined, the argument leans in favor of an open policy,
particularly when considering the fact that we may some day need to return to a draft or
compulsory enlistment. Bibliography lists 7 sources. Gaysmili.wps

The Issue Of Gun Control : 5
pages in length. It is an issue that tugs at the very core of humanity's struggle to
maintain its Constitutional freedoms; one in which opponents are pitted against one
another in an effort to hail their side victorious in the ongoing battle. This issue is
gun control, and it is as equally divided as any problem would be when one's rights are on
the line. In essence, the hotly debated topic represents two evenly endorsed sides: those
who want guns removed from society at all levels beyond law enforcement, and the other
side who says the right to bear arms is everyone's right. The writer gives an overview of
the debate, represents each side's argument and then supports the side that favors gun
control. Bibliography lists 4 sources. Guniss.wps

Gun Control : An 8 page research paper
that looks at both sides of the gun control issue. The writer looks at the US and the UK
as being representative of the opposite ends of the spectrum on gun control policies. The
United States has the loosest control of private handgun ownership and Britain has one of
the strictest. Comparing the two positions of pro-gun factions in the US, such as the
National Rifle Association (NRA), with the position of most Britons is instructive because
the Britons have achieved the goals that pro-gun control proponents in the US only dream
about. In 1996, Briton passed laws that came close to banning the ownership of private
weapons. Bibliography lists 9 sources. Gunpolic.wps
Ineffectiveness Of Gun Control : In 8
pages, the writer discusses the ineffectiveness of gun control laws. "Effectiveness
of gun control laws is a misnomer. Gun control laws are ineffective. In fact, they are
considered to be counter productive to their purpose. The socioeconomic variables have
more of an impact on gun related deaths than do gun control laws. Guns are not the root of
crime, the problems of society are the root cause of crime." One-page sentence
outline included. Bibliography lists 7 sources. Ineffgun.wps

sometimes accomplish the impossible task of understanding the fears and uncertainties that
so often must be covered with bravado and brashness. When the relationship between teacher
and student becomes any closer than that, however, all parties involved risk long-lasting
harm, but the teen is the one with the highest price to pay. Long-standing taboos in this
area do indeed have a reason for being, and deserve not only to be left in place, but also

Supreme Court Usurps Individual Rights :
A 5 page paper that argues the following: over the years, individual rights have been

the Supreme Court, and women’s rights to abortion have been substantially reduced.

rights in regards to imposed decency on the Internet. This decision is expected within the

Affirmative Action’s Lack Of
Usefulness : A 10 page paper arguing that any usefulness that affirmative action
policies could have claimed in the past have long since been obsolete. When affirmative
action policies were instituted, there was little chance that an educated and qualified
black man or a woman of any color could break into the corporate world by any means except
that of growing their own. After more than 30 years of evolution of the act and of more
than enough time in which to judge affirmative action’s effectiveness, the only
logical conclusion in light of the facts—rather than of rhetoric—is that not
only has affirmative action not worked for the black segment of our population for which
it was originally intended, it has not worked for any segment of our population.

Near Death Experiences -- Are They Real ? :
A 9 page research paper examining the validity of alleged Near Death Experiences
(NDE). Since Raymond Moody coined the term with the publication of Life After
Life in 1975, the entire issue has been under debate. Though some researchers maintain
that the NDE is nothing more than a product of physiological changes the body undergoes
when death is imminent, their scientific logic is found to be faulty. The body of
knowledge surrounding the NDE is too vast to be dismissed because of our inability to
clinically replicate the events encompassed by the NDE. That same inability does nothing
to prevent the stars from existing and maintaining their positions, either. Those who have
returned unshakably hold that their experiences were in fact very real, regardless of what
some researchers want to say about those experiences. Thus, the writer of this paper makes
a strong argument that NDEs are indeed, very real. Bibliography lists 9 sources. FREE
Outline included. Nde.wps
Teen Marriages / Do They Last ? : This 5

sources. Sochelth.wps

send His angels to earth today as He did then. Bibliography lists 5 sources. Angels.wps
International Students & The Problem Of
Writing Essays : An argumentative 5 page essay examining why so many international
students dislike writing essays. Three causes are given: interest and motivation are in
vocational training, cultural autonomy vs. western philosophy, and the use of proper
English language as a U.S.-bias. All of these are argued against, but the final thesis is
that because of these arguments, international students' motivations should be given more
consideration by the university, and students (who after graduation find they approve of
their education in the U.S.) are willing to contribute to the university-international
student interaction and program design. The paper postulates a more congruent interaction
between the two. Bibliography lists 5 sources. Intessay.wps
