Is cybernetic augmentation ethical?
I'm not exactly a religious person, so I would rather a religious person be the one to debate me on this topic. If cybernetic augmentation becomes a commercial product, and people can go to "cybernetic clinics" and get their normal arms replaces with robot arms, would this be ok? I've heard arguments that god created people in his image, and this would be defiling this image. Personally, I think it would be ethical, and very useful in medical terms. People with broken limbs can replace them with...

Should Chewing Gum Be Allowed in School?
I think chewing gum should be allowed in school for many reasons. First of all, lots of students have bad breath. In my opinion, it is better to smell minty gum breath than nasty breath, so this is a very good reason. Second of all, it helps your health. 72% of gum users are taller than average. For example, my friend chewed gum every day in his 2nd period class and now he is 6 feet 2 inches. Imagine how short he would be if he never chewed gum. This is a fact because my doctor explained it to m...

Abortion. One of the most controversial topics in the 1970s is still burning with rage right now. The spark of the flame was the "Roe vs. Wade" court case in 1973. Roe was a single woman who was pregnant with a baby. Living in Texas, she could not abort the baby because all abortion laws made it illegal to have the abortion in her case. Roe then challenged the law to let her have the abortion. Roe ended up winning and making abortion legal in many states. The Partial Birth Abortion ban act was t...

Atheists have a poor logic, that is why they can't admire the existence of God.
