The world is an ever-changing sphere that is made of ocean and landscape. Over the time of billions upon billions of years, the Earth has gone through lots of changes in climate, though either the extremes or the common. The Earth is and always has been an instigator and resulted effects on itself throughout the history of the planet's climate. Now we are starting to change its natural course.

Adam's thesis

Just because you have been to prison, in no way means you should be considered a threat to society. Every single person born into the world has the capability to do good; all we have to do is give them the chance.

Emma Bairstow thesis

While alcoholism has been an issue in America since society merely began, it has been questioned to be either a disease or a choice. Through all the history and research, it shows that alcoholism starts off as personal choice and later acts as a disease.

Jessie Marston Thesis

Runway models are what everyone strives to look like: Tall, thin and beautiful, leaving everyone wanting to be perfect, believing that nothing is quite good enough. Young people get brainwashed by runway model companies to believe that a size zero is the only size that is acceptable. So to achieve this goal, many models and some normal people unwittingly develop eating disorders.

The war on terror seems unwinnable to a lot of Americans but it is truly anything but. Over the past couple of months the United States military has killed major leaders of the ruthless Taliban and al-Qaeda regimes.

Thesis: In America today everything has a value, including life. By placing a value on life and using our judicial system to put someones life in the hands of jury is not right. There are too many things that can go wrong to many factors that could lead to an innocent person to be killed by the government. When someone is put to death, on their death certificate the “homicide” box is checked: this means murder. As Ghandi said “ An eye for an eye only makes the whole world blind”, it is irrefutable that the death penalty should not be a part of hour judicial system.

Immigration

Every year thousands of immigrants migrate into the United States illegally. The question is not whether this is a good thing or a bad thing, but how to deal with it. The immigrants must be deported and the US must put more effort into stopping it.

Death Penalty-Carter

Currently the death penalty is legal and morally acceptable in the United States of America. However, the death penalty is expensive, ethically wrong, and even has the potential to put innocent people to death. Clearly, the death penalty is unconstitutional and should be abolished from the United States.

The modern theory of cultural relativism is necessary in our extremely diverse world. For both anthropologists and average citizens alike, the ability to not bias against cultures without having a complete understanding of what that culture really is, is vital. The same thing can be said on an individual level, each and every person has their own “culture”. It is important to understand that to a certain degree there is no right, and no wrong. It varies (to a moral degree) between the individual. The most important thing with cultural relativism is to understand that the entire theory cannot completely function; by accepting every culture, there are not boundaries for ethics. The Golden rule and sense of good Samaritanism are equivalent to human sacrifice and suicide bombings in the eyes of a cultural relativist. While having a good, clear sense of acceptance is necessary in the world today, wholly embracing the theory of cultural relativism is dangerous and unethical.

Nina's Thesis

The stigma that is typically associated with ‘cult’ stereotypes does not adequately represent members of these groups and their reasons for joining. Behind the widely publicized images of head-shaving, kool-aid-drinking, radical drones are people who have found a message of knowledge and certainty that they can connect to on a spiritual level. Although heinous murder sprees and lewd acts of sexual assault by cult leaders are not to be condoned, one must step back from their personal beliefs and respect that ‘freedom of religion’ is not to be confined to solely what ones own morals and beliefs dictate.
