Stuck

[cykopunkchick]

I'm trying to figure out how to articulate a paper for my Philosophy class on why I think suicide bombing can be morally justified, but it's turning out to be pretty tough. I know that I'm not going to change my opinion, but it's just hard to find the right words to describe my opinion at this point. Wednesday we're having a class review thing

With such great conviction, suicide bombers believe in their cause so greatly that they are willing to commit the greatest sacrifice possible. (power statement)

In the muslim religion, those who are not of their religion are pagans. Pagans are dictated to be worth less than cattle, consuming world resources and taking land that rightfully belongs to them.

Christians have had their holy wars, slaughtering entire civilizations in the name of their god. The United States has a history of "dealing" with cultures that defend their land from those that seak to take it. From the Native Americans to the natives of South Africa.

Thanks

Thanks, that's actually a big help. I'm going to start it tonight and we'll see where I end up *sigh* I'm trying to get as many opinions on the topic as possible to see if other people have better ways of articulating my same thoughts so yeah, that helps!!

No prob. I'm good at the power statements. Thats really what an essay is all about anyways, is those hard hitting undeniables. Everything else is fluff.
