Death is heavy and weighs on the backs of us all. It looms over the shoulders of the unhappy‚ creeps under the beds of the ill‚ and swallows the elderly in their sleep. There is yet a man‚ to claim that tomorrow‚ his eyes will open‚ or will not close for an eternity. Our lives are but a book‚ waiting to be concluded‚ or shut mid sentence. As the writers of our own book‚ we have the right to know where‚ when and how the book ends. Are the lives of the ill worth any less than the unhappy or the elderly

In the last 75 years‚ the United States has faced several drastic changes. One major change we have faced is slavery. Slavery is completely nonexistent to this day. Back then when caucasians beat an african-american‚ they wouldn’t be faced with any consequences. Now if you beat an african-american‚ you’re faced with many consequences because everyone is treated as an equal under the law.

The first argument I put forward to support dualism is; the brain and mind of human beings are different from each other. They both have unique properties and distinctive roles in human beings. The brain has definable characteristics that can be observed and analysed (Robinson‚ 2012‚ p.2). For example the activity of the brain when sleeping is examinable on electroencephalograms (Marieb & Hoehn‚ 2013‚ p.452).
