Before you write your paper, make sure that you have the facts.\n\nThe press sells papers by exaggerating the issues. Guantanamo was an excellent example.  While the inmates were humiliated, they weren't tortured.  The accusations still spring up, however, and the UN is using the accusation to bash the US.\n\nAdditionally, the UN has determined that force feeding prisoners that go on a hunger strike is torture.  So, if you feed them, it's torture.  If you don't and they starve, it's torture.\n\nFinally, prisoners will lie about treatment because it's a form of political power they can use while incarcerated.

Check out www.ClassTopic.com   They have some great topics that I've used in the past.  Each topic has three good sources to get you started on the research, too.

I think it sounds very interesting.  Have you thought about how you will test this question and then how you will present your findings?  Good luck to you!

You can ask that question with a name like yours? Interesting. I guess we all feel passionately about our viewpoints. Can you be open minded enough to understand why this issue is so important to many people? We are talking about our rights and our lives.

I feel they have a right to give their point of view.The topic is for everyone,even non-religous or non-spiritual people.

These links should get you started, and will lead you to many othr links.  If you consider they were each from different countries, think about that in terms of their perspectives.  \n\nGood luck with your paper.

You could argue for or against globilization and look at how big companies affect things. Or you could use a topic I did, arguing for or against violence in video games and whether or not it affects childrens personalities, there's tons of great oppinions on this topic so this is the one I recomend.

Another "usual one"--stem cell research a.k.a "Using your twin brother for spare parts"...  oh, let's not forget genetically modified products. \n\nBut writing about something that you don't hear about every day is a better idea. Most people have already formed an opinion about where they stand on these "big issues" and are usually less willing to even read your paper if it goes against their "beliefs". Your teacher might give you a credit for picking a topic that is less debated by general public. For example: "reintroducing wolves into the environment", "rebuilding houses destroyed by floods, fires and earthquakes in places where they will be likely destroyed by the same few years down the road"....

what is the one topic you feel most strongly about? you need something you are interested in, to gain the interest of others, and you aren't going to persuade anybody if you aren't serious about it. for example, do you have a really strong opinion on the voting age? abortion laws? women in the military? stopping illegal immigrants? the age at which someone is considered an adult? trying juveniles as adults when they commit a serious crime? how about the legality of people mutilating animals...such as declawing cats...docking tails and ears of dogs because it 'looks better'...breaking and resetting show horse's tails crooked so they fall a certain way? (they do this with Tennessee Walkers and Saddlebreds)just a few ideas. hope it helps!

Use your imagination.\n\nAnd maybe you could  ask someone else in your class what they think about the whole thing.

State what your original views were, what they are now, and why they did not change.  I assume the views of different philosophers were discussed in your class. Explain why they either confirmed your beliefs or why you didn't agree with them.\n\nThere is nothing wrong with continuing to believe what you do even after you heard other points of view.  Don't let your professor intimidate you in your beliefs.\n\nMaybe your belief is wrong but it is how you see things at this point in your life.  Don't apologize for it.\n\nWhat do you believe? Do you believe God exist and the professor is wanting you to believe otherwise? Or is it vice versa? Either way, stand your ground and don't let him/her intimidate you.  I kind of sense you feel like you are required to change your position after hearing other points of view.  Teachers who don't agree with a student sometimes wants a student to see things their way because they think they are right and the student is wrong.\n\nIf you want help in writing your paper, e-mail me.  Maybe I can help you.

I think you should respect all opinions, regardless of whether you deem them correct or not.  I think you should try to explain to people why you feel their opinions are incorrect.  Back it up and let them know you find their arguments flawed and/or offensive.  Many people are misinformed and not knowledgable about many areas (this includes myself).
