any controversial topic-should marijuana be legalized,should pro life advocates be banned from limiting or hindering a womans right to abortion.\nchristianity is  a profitable and organized form of manipulation based on a mythological figure,whatever you believe in just argue objectively for the opposing view questioning the validity of the story or existence of God or calling organized religions evil based on former common practices (still practiced in other countries like saudi arabia,nigeria,etc)stoning people to death-a popular barbaric,religious activity,the inquisiton-christians judging torturing and killing others in the name of god,the evil people visiting monuments that were built by the tortured enslaved hands of native americans who were raped tortured and hanged publicly to force them to accept christianity and build these christian missions- or based on the violence and death sffered by man via executions,enslavement,torture,and wars being fought in the name of God the cross should be considered just as offensive as the swastika, these God and Religion or Gay ones are the best it gets the most peoples panties in a knot you can go around and ask anyone friends ,families or coworkers their reaction to your thesis and believe me you will get plenty and you can address and dispute all their points,a thesis that pushes the controversy button the hardest and is supported with fact rather than appeals to emotion, and miisssing sarcasm or self righteousness is an awesome and most likely A grade paper,(that is if you ccan write and follow mla format)technical and grammatical mistakes ruin your credibility and your grade. good luck

i like to use a quote or a short story that deals with the issue.  it gives you some evidence at the very beginning, and it depending on the quote, it can give you a very powerful introduction, which is exactly what you want in a debate.

The most persuasive people do not seem to be trying to persuade anyone of anything.  I think two of the most persuasive are Mother Teresa and His Holiness, the Dalai Lama.  They persuade us by their example and their lives of dedication to their fellowman, not by their words.

Find a really "hot and controversial" subject that gets people aroused - advertise it effectivly and they will come flocking or respond to have thier say.

It really depends on you. The best topic would be any topic that you are really interested in... something that you know about, and something that you think is important and that would be relevant for your audience.

As a public speaking teacher for 30 years, I advise you to stay away from topics like abortion or Iraq.  They are overdone, too broad, and won't keep the interest of your audience - or else they'll be just plain angry if they disagree with you.\n\nI like "fun" topics for persuasion, such as either/or topics (Boxers or Briefs?  Chocolate or Vanilla?).  I also like topics of local controversy.  What's the hot topic around campus that people really care about?\n\nAny topic will keep your audience's attention if you choose your supporting information carefully.  Use anecdotes, humor, and a combination of logical and emotional appeals.

It would help to know a topic.  Do you have to write on something specific, or anything you like?  Give us more details.  keep in mind that when writing an editorial, you are giving your opinion and you may be surprised/hurt when you get a negative response.

I think the first poster gave a great suggestion.  Here are a few more ideas:  \n\nLet me make your money talk.\n\nTime is money.\n\nMoney is scarce so let me take care of yours.\n\nAnd a few links that may help.  Good luck with your campaign.

The most important part of persuasive essays is making a personal connection. Include information about yourself that will make you stand apart, seem interesting, make a connection with your readers. Text is by nature two-dimensional, but your goal is to make "you" come through the text, become three-dimensional to your reader.. Remember that persuasion is "emotional." So use "emotive" language.

Anything that has to do with politics or religions will be a good topic, but becareful these topics can turn into anger and violence.  \n\nA good topic should be one that people usually have strong and mixed opinions on.

You could talk about immigration or the war in Iraq or raising minimum wage...those are the boring ones.\n\nIf you want to do something off the wall, I always recommend that people talk about blowing up the moon.  I wrote a 10 minute speech on supporting the destruction of the moon.  There's a lot of evidence to support it, and it's entertaining to research and read.

the diff between a persuasive paper and an argumentive paper is about what the motivation to talk about it is. if you're compairing it to someone else's oppinion, then it's arg. if you're just trying to get people to do or think about something, then it's pers.
