said that over 3 million athletes and bodybuilders have used illegal steroids in this country alone (Street 1). If many people already use steroids why not make them legal and let people take them at their own risk? Or perhaps do you think steroids should stay illegal because they have harmful side effects and promote an unfair advantage in sports?

During the middle ages‚ people with intellectual disabilities were considered less of a person and thus undeserving of basic rights because they were believed to not hold a firm grasp on the concept of personhood (Fyson et al.‚ 2013‚ p.1164). Personhood meaning that one has to have the ability to reason and have a conscious‚ which was believed people with intellectual disabilities lacked. Due to this belief‚ it led to numerous

How Should We Treat the Homeless? I think that to treat all homeless people in one certain way would be hard for me to do because there are many reasons for a person to be homeless‚ and some of them should be treated differently from others. I feel that the runaways and drug addicts don’t deserve as much as the unemployed and war veteran types. But I feel in my heart that all people with no homes‚ or lives for that matter‚ should get some sort of help to survive and get back on their feet so

Animals should not be used for research Imagine an animal suffering‚ with no way to help itself. Imagine a human being forcing an animal to suffer and not doing anything to help. This is what happens when animals are used for research to test products that most people do use. Every year almost 8‚000 animals suffer from being used for research. Animals are subjected to burns‚ electric shocks‚ and other painful experiences that researchers subject them too. Animals are given diseases from the researchers

Everyone expects them to play for the fun of the game‚ but in this capitalistic world today‚ is that really enough? Even though college athletes are considered amateur student athletes‚ they already earn scholarships‚ and colleges might have a few problems with money‚ colleges should pay athletes because the athletes earn the colleges billions of dollars

When I sent out a survey‚ I asked‚ “What do you notice about the trash on our campus?”‚ I got some answers that said‚ “It makes room 21 look bad‚ I rarely see people pick up trash” and “I see trash over the railing from old school projects and papers blowing around.” I see and agree with these responses.I think that when people see trash they should pick it up. Even one piece of trash can lead to a disaster. Something should be done about the trash around campus because the trash can hurt animals

Stephen J. Dubner’s article‚ “SuperFreakonomics: What Should You Worry About?” is a piece that explains what we as humans worry about that aren’t as big of a deal as we think. Levitt and Dubner claim that we are terrible at assessing risk and that we focus more on things like shark attacks and lightning strikes versus things like heart disease which has a more likely chance of doing harm to us. Economics is a key term that they use to explain how we can assess the risks that we are faced with each

ever since humans first developed a curiosity of how the human body works. Due to opening up a human in ancient times being not only taboo but also considered blasphemous to God‚ animals were used as substitutes to understand the human anatomy. It was relatively recently that humans started to use animals to understand diseases and test new chemicals we have developed. These animals have helped humanity advance to where it is today‚ and we should be grateful for their contribution. But‚ with technology

Abortion should also be legalized because the decision women make about their pregnancies empowers their rights. This is because women do not get a lot of say in things today without a man’s approval. Women should especially be able to make decisions about their own bodies and if they want to give birth. There is a lot of gender inequality shown today‚ so taking away a woman’s right to have an abortion would be a step backwards for the issue and women everywhere. For example‚ globally‚ women are
