Controversial Issues Morailty: Acepted or Opressed Iosif Todoran – February 21,2017 – Soc 130 ABSTRACT How do countries feel abut controversial topics such as: Homosexuality, Abortion, Premarital Sex and Divorce. Controversial issues have plagued mankind since the very beginning and that is due the ideology that without controversy you cant flourish as a race, country or simply a group of people. However, the controversial issues we face today different from continent to continent and country to country due to the culture, norms and moral values each person is exposed too. There are four issues in particular that rise up again and again and they are: Homosexuality, Abortion, Premarital Sex and Divorce. The four countries in question differ from one ...show more content... The New York Times reported a staggering 23% of adults are not affiliated to any religion. The rest of the population is a mixture of religions such as: Christian, Catholics, Islam, and others. This change in religious affiliations isn't affecting just the individuals who now partake in a non–religion category but also the political parties. The Republican Party relies on the votes of those who affiliate with the Christian faith and if those votes change due to a change in religious affiliation then we could also see a decline in the number of morality for these issues (Cohen). For now, the numbers seem to be close related which means that due to diversity of religion and non–religious affiliates, the morale seems to balance itself Get more content on StudyHub.Vip
A Controversial Topic On Gender Roles Essay Gender roles is a very controversial topic in today's society, especially when it comes to working. 100 years ago, in Europe, women were working long hours in factories. Women also worked as nurses, cleaned wealthy people 's homes, worked the fields, and were craftswomen. In other areas, women have been working the fields, handicrafts, and workshops. Meanwhile, 100 years ago in the United States women were expected to stay home and take care of the family/home, while the men went out and worked an average of ten hours a day for six days a week, compared to the traditional five day weeks and 8 hour days. There are common beliefs about working women, including that they are expected to have kids and quit their jobs when they do, they are judged more harshly when voicing their opinions, they are expected to have good 'soft skills', they are still seen as secondary to their husbands even if they're the primary breadwinner, they are perceived as naturally weaker than their male coworkers, and they are judged more on their looks than men. Even though most these stereotypes have mostly disappeared over the past few years, they still exist in some places. Today, women in America are becoming more and more powerful in many areas, especially when it comes to the workforce. Participation Some people believe that females don't work as much as their male counterparts do. A lot of people believe that men work a lot more than women do in the United States.

Animal Testing : A Controversial Topic Abdul Faytrouni Prof. Greer PHIL 76 23 July 2015 Animal Testing Fatima walks into the cosmetic section of Macy's and is interested in buying some acne skin care products. As she was paying for them, she notices plenty of harmful side effects the acne products contained. Fatima is glad she is aware of these symptoms and knows that these side effects are rare and that the product is almost completely safe to use. If it was not for animal testing that is currently being used in some laboratories, these side effects would have been discovered on people and that would create an unsafe environment. Less people would want to buy care products and medicine since it would be viewed as a risk instead of something helpful. Animal testing is becoming a more controversial topic, despite its many successes over the years. Since people have various misconceptions about it, such as it being an unsafe and cruel technique, it has become a more unpopular method. However, the benefits of animal research and testing have been less spread due to negative media attention, which created a bias among the public. Animal testing is a practice that has proved to be beneficial and should be continued because of the close similarity between humans and animals, the many lifesaving cures that it contributed to, and the regulation of the practice that makes it safe and humane for animals. One of the biggest reasons why animals are used in laboratories is because they are very similar to human beings. In Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

The Controversial Topics Of Racism Controversial Topics Essay According to dosomething.org studies show that police are more likely to pull over and frisk blacks or Latinos than whites in New York city. 80% of the stops made were blacks and Latinos and 85% of those people were frisked compared to an 8% of white people stopped. This is one example of racial inequality going on today. Racism has many forms but is commonly known as "poor treatment or violence against people because of their race " (source: Merriam Webster). Racism is a very important topic that generally occurs all over the world. It impacts our society by creating a stigma against races. Examples of this are not being able to get certain jobs, and getting less pay than someone of another race and fighting against races . Racism goes against our rights as well. For example the constitution states that "All men are created equal" as well as The Civil Rights Act is a law outlawing racial and other forms of discrimination. Therefore our government is defying right and laws. Although some progress has been made towards racial equality, America still remains a very racist country because people discriminate on your ethnicity, a lot of stereotyping, as well as minorities being looked down upon because of their cultures. Not everyone will agree that America is still a very racist country , and racism isn 't the only issue causing inequality. However, there is still racism in our community. Some examples are: in Baltimore (1910) an african Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

I chose the topic of the Space Exploration: Apollo missions. This has always interested me and I found that it was a lot more than just space exploration. This was a political race that was between the United States and Soviet Union "Russia". I was shocked to find out that this was a controversial topic, because many people believe that we never made it in space and others think that the moon landing was a hoax. I also read that some people thought it was a way to drain the Russian economy during the cold war . John F. Kennedy started the Apollo missions to flaunt the U.S. Prestige to the Soviet Union. The first 7 rockets failed, but were unmanned. Apollo 7 was manned and successfully orbited the Earth. It took until Apollo 11 to actually land Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

Suicide Controversial Topics A Controversial Topic One of the most controversial topics in our society today is suicide. In this day and age our society runs away from talking about this situation. Suicide is an important public health problem in our lives ("Suicide"). There are approximately thirty thousand people who commit suicide every year in the United States alone ("Suicide"). With this health problem most of the people ask what religions say about this. Suicide and religion are a topic that goes hand in hand. What are the viewpoints of Christianity ? What are the viewpoints of other cultures? These are questions that are asked all the time. First, let us talk about characteristics of suicide. The characteristics of suicide consist of the individual thinking ...show more content... There has been three scientific theories that have been produced. The first theory is the medical model, and this is referred to as mental illness this was developed in the late 1800s ("Suicide"). The second theory is when individuals are unable to fit into society. This was introduced by French sociologist Emile Durkheim ("Suicide"). The third theory is that these people "cry for help". This was introduced in the 1950s, and the people want others to notice their pain and help them ("Suicide"). Due to the suicide rates in the United States over the years there have been many steps and programs to help prevent suicide. In the 1950s the suicide hotline was developed, and this made it where the people who were thinking of committing suicide can call and receive help ("Suicide"). There have been prevention programs sent through the school to train students, teachers and others to recognize the warning signs of suicide ("Suicide"). There has been so much to try and prevent suicide in this country, but there are some who want to die for certain reasons. Death with dignity is when one wants to die when terminally ill and it is an inevitable and unavoidable death ("Religion and Spirituality"). There has been a movement in many places including the United States to put the "right–to–die" in play. The "Right–to–die" movement aims to legalize doctor–assisted services ("Suicide").

Controversial Topics In American History Race is a topic that has been a part of American history since the beginning of the colonized America. This country has always struggled with the idea of people with different ethnicities and what that means for the society in which both live in. These differences have caused a lot of animosity in the country and changes had to be made. The country has changed and adapted to overcome obstacles once ethic discoveries were made. However, the road has been long and hard for many individuals who have faced decimation and persecution. Many key events have taken place in history since 1877 for the African Americans to have the rights they do today but three stand out and those are Plessy v. Ferguson, the Civil Right Act, and the New Jim Crow laws Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

Sustainability is one of the most controversial topics throughout the history, and as our society develop, we realize that being able to be sustainable is essential to survival of our race. The book Taking Sides: Clashing Views in Sustainability is a collection of articles on different side of various issues related to sustainability . In the book, Issue 8 discusses the ability of technology to deliver sustainability, and issue 16 and 17 discusses the sustainability of food and energy. While issue 16 and 17 are well–presented, the arguments in issue 8 are not very strong. Issue 8 Can Technology Deliver Global Sustainability? As our culture develops, we gradually realize that we have to find a sustainable way of living so that we can ...show more content... Idea of "leap–frogging" is a strong point of her argument, because it saves all the time and resources necessary for technological development, which in turn avoid the inevitable damage to the environment. In the article, she analyzes two places in the report, which adds variety to the sample; however, both countries are in Asia, and examples from other part of the world can make the argument stronger. Lewis provides a lot of details of the results of the wind turbines: "by 2006, India had reached 6228 MW of installations, surpassing its long–held target of 5000 MW of wind capacity by 2012 several years early" (195). She tries to show how fast wind turbine technology develops, showing that it is possible for technology to deliver sustainability, however, she never discusses the energy and raw materials required to make wind turbines, nor the maintenance of the wind turbines. In general, the article does not address the question "Can Technology Deliver Global Sustainability?" very well; it discusses wind turbine as the only technology, and the only two countries in Asia mentioned is not "global." The No section also did a good job explaining why it is difficult for technology to deliver sustainability; however, it does not address the issue really well, because it only discusses a small region in Africa.

Abortion : A Controversial Issue Abortion is a controversial issue in many countries all the time and there are always two sides of abortion. Pro–life supporters believe that abortion is immoral, so they argue that it should be illegal because an unborn baby is life. However, they do not figure out that woman who is on the inevitable situation such as infection, rape, or extreme poverty would still have the abortion even though the abortion is illegal. Many women die due to unsafe abortion, which is illegal and performed by uneducated people. Therefore, the abortion should be legal to protect the life of 'alive women' because women's life is equal to human's right. I would like to provide more affirmative bases to support abortion in this paper. Women have right to control their own bodies and decisions. As human free will, women can determine their decision for their future. It is sometimes inevitable to maintain their lifestyle that they have before they become pregnant. Although pregnant is the responsibility of both, woman and man, as a result of having sex, women should give up their career or study because pregnancy and childbirth are not as easy at all as just people generally think. Furthermore, women who have the abortion are in difficult condition, which is the unwanted. The Guttmacher institute research said that unintended or unplanned pregnancies were 41 percent of national pregnancies (Abortion Worldwide: A Decade of Uneven Progress). This high rate is from the unavoidable inability of Get more content on StudyHub.Vip
Climate Change is a very controversial topic, not only in The United States, but in various places around the world. Some people say that it is a hoax, and others put it on the top of their priority list, along with abortions, terrorism and other important topics circulating around the world. Magnum in Motion did a very good and detailed job of swaying people to believe that climate change needs to be a more precedent issue. The video essay portrays climate change as a pogrom, it gives an unbiased opinion, and it presents ways to combat climate change. The video done by Magnum in Motion is done in a superb fashion. It portrays climate change as a pogrom. It does a phenomenal job in showing how climate change can effect things around us. ...show more content... It shows forests and houses set ablaze due to the recent spikes in the temperature. Lives are being lost due to Climate change, and if that is not a problem to you then something is wrong. More and more wild fires break out every week all across the world spreading from village to village, forest to forest and leaving nothing but a trail of destruction, death and fire. Magnum in Motion climate change video gives us ways to combat climate change. One of the solutions the video presents is to charge taxes for carbon emissions and support low–carbon research initiatives. Although this would let us learn much more about climate change and the ways we can do to prevent it from being such an issue. I would say corporations would be upset that they have to pay more taxes, and the word taxes in America is like a curse word. Another solution is that we can change our way of living and invest in renewable sources of energy like fossil fuels and such. Solution number three is thinking collectively and helping venerable communities adapt to the consequences that come with the effects of global warming and climate change. In doing this it would help us learn more about ways to combat or be more prepared the next time it becomes a problem for any of the countries in the world. The quote by the Dalai Lama speaks volume on this issue, "If we looked down at the world form space, we would not see any demarcations of a national boundaries.

Abortion: A Controversial Debatable Topic Essay Abortions have long been a controversial and debatable topic. Politicians and religious groups, and most individuals have a strong opinion or view regarding the topic. Society has two very different views regarding abortions. Those that oppose abortions for various reasons are considered pro–life, while those that believe abortion is a woman's choice are considered pro–choice. The arguments that each side believes are considerably very different and often cause outrage or extreme emotional responses. Viewpoints that each side attempt to persuade others vary from religious, morals or values, personal experience, and rights. Today, abortions are still a controversial, which prevent people from seeing eye–to–eye and continue to be a ...show more content... In order to form an opinion for either side, questions must be answered. One of the first questions one must ask is, when "life" begins. Advancement in technology, such as ultrasounds, fetal therapy and amniocentesis graphically reveal complex life before birth, including a heartbeat as potential life. Scientists have identified the first moments of human life as the instant when a sperm cell unites with an ovum or egg cell. There are billions of cells, body cells, which collectively make up a human being. Unless these cells are manipulated, the body cells remain what they appear to be such as skin, hair, bone, muscle, and organs. According to science, the cells will continue to "live" and are "alive," until it dies. There are also other rare cells known as germ cells, which have the power to transform into other kind of human cells. In order to create a fetus the sex cells (male sperm) and the female eggs must combine. It is only when combined, that these cells create a fetus (life by definition of pro–life supporters). The period for completion occurs within twelve hours, at which time the egg is fertilized and becomes known as a "zygote," containing the full set of forty–six chromosomes required to create a new human life. Pro–life supports argue that this is the point of which life begins and should be respected with the same laws that apply anyone in our country, whether in the womb or outside.

The Controversial Issue Of Gun Control The controversial issue of gun control is one of the most debatable topics among politicians and civilians alike. This is because of the complexity of gun control and the long history that is related to the subject. Gun control is typically an effort, by the government, to create legislation that regulates the sale and use of firearms within the country. There are various arguments that surround this topic which include gun –related violence, accidents, self–defense, murders, suicide, constitutional rights, and so on. James Q. Wilson, a professor who has taught at Pepperdine University, Harvard University, and the University of California, Los Angeles, and a published author of several books, take a negative stance on the subject of gun control. Wilson contributed to the gun control debate in the last few years with his written op–ed article. According to Wilson, there is no possible method to eradicate the hundreds and millions of guns that exist within the country, restrictive gun laws will not significantly affect the United States' murder rate, and that guns play an important role in self– defense in everyday lives. Contrary to what Wilson believes, strict gun control is necessary and should be enforced to ensure public safety because gun laws have the power to produce a positive outcome in the long run, reduce gun–related violence, and reduce the numerous risks that gun ownership open. There are many people, including Professor Wilson, who claim that there are already Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

Abortion: A Controversial Topic Essay Abortion is one of the most highly debated issues in our country today, and this debate between those who support abortion and those against it has been going on since the 1973 court case, Roe v. Wade. To have an abortion or not to is solely the woman's choice and her right. Keeping abortion legal is a wiser decision than outlawing it for multiple reasons. All women deserve the right to choose what to do with their bodies. If abortion is to be made illegal, that decision will be stripping women of rights to do what they want with their own bodies. Until recently, women have had the right to do as they pleased with their own bodies, but in today's society, these rights are being threatened. In her article "Abortion: Every Woman's Right", ...show more content... Many pro–life supporters argue that the abortion rate could be lowered if women would just put their children up for adoption after they are born. Those who view it in this light seem to have a very closed minded view on the subject matter. Adoption is not an alternative to abortion if the woman has decided she does not want to carry the child to full term. This idea reverts back to the issue of a woman's right to do what she wants with her body. If women are made to carry their unwanted child to full term, that is forcing them to go through a process they do not wish to undergo. Adoption is not really an alternative to abortion, but an alternative to parenting the child. On a website for women who have had abortions in their lifetime, a woman who is known by the name "Julie" expresses her view on the topic in saying, "It solves the problem of a childrearing, but not the problem of unwanted pregnancy . Women still face nine months of gestation and the pain and sickness that comes with it, will still require very expensive medical care, will miss work or school, will still endure the pain of labor, and will still face all of the risk that come with pregnancy and delivery." The essence of Julie's argument is that adoption is not an alternative because the pregnant woman still has to endure the nine months of pregnancy and all it entails, so in reality, it is not an alternative if the woman still has to go through pregnancy. Making adoption seem like a better Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

Mental Illness: A Controversial Topic Hello Shane, mental illness is a tough subject to talk about because most just ignore this sensitive topic. I do agree with you in the last few years this has become a subject that is heavily addressed by law enforcement. This is an excellent topic to discuss whether or not the mentally ill can only be victims, and or perpetrators.

The reason may be that the food these people ate containing one being phytate which damages the absorption of zinc and other minerals (Lönnerdal, 2000).

Censorship Is A Controversial Topic Essay Censorship in the media that is a very common yet, controversial topic due to the subject matter being around children and the youth. It has sparked attention from many government and public individuals that have demanded a probation on certain age groups. The official start on the entire blockade of certain age groups has started with the MPAA" Motion Picture Association of America" in wanting to prohibit certain age groups from viewing certain movies, yet there has always been ways around the rating system for the youths. Today, Censorship is a controversial topic that has many different outlooks on the topic in general for those who may support or oppose the practice in use. Censorship is a major topic that has taken many activists on top of the issue entirely and on every aspect regarding the issue. Such activist groups proclaim to want rules to be enforced that would prevent explicit content to be blocked or banned within the public. Which if not in a way would be enforced it would cause the world would be crazy without it. While there are individuals that support the topic, which support such claims that the bad content is bad for the minds of the young, and there are those who oppose such practices in a different way. While those who argue that censorship should disappear they come across arguments that basically suggest that censorship denies access to vital information and fights against the first amendment freedom of speech which applies to all individual Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

Chelsea Maldonado November 17, 2014 PHIL 1304–010 Religion is a very controversial topic around the world. While the term seems complex, when actually broken down, the main religions have one simple concept in common; religion is here for comfort, it serves as a rule book to human behavior on earth so people can have comfort in the thought of death. When getting to know an individual it is important to know what their beliefs are. A lot of the qualities they possess will come from their up–bringing, culture and personal opinions however, around the world most of these beliefs come straight from one's religious beliefs. In most places religion is the culture, opinions and guideline to up–bringing. Religion teaches people how to live their lives while giving people something to live for, something to attain or an end goal. The world is diverse, there are 4,200 different religions. As we've seen in history, not understanding the various beliefs and practices can create extreme separation and violence between religious groups. It is important to gain knowledge about the common goal that religions share because once that is established it becomes easier to accept and understand the person. In particular, Buddhism , is more than just a religion. Buddhism, to its followers, is the way of life, or philosophy. Not understanding their religion is not understanding their life at all. Buddhism goes beyond meditation, practices and rituals, it is how a Buddhist lives, Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

Although life saving and revolutionary in the medical field, disputes about how moral it is surrounds the practice and research. Why it's controversial comes from how stem cells are retrieved.
