Direct evidence

Deforestation, a highly controversial topic that has multiple sides with different opinions flying everywhere. And sure enough, this opinionated topic has one of the greatest impacts on the planet, and that is if our species will continue thriving, or face our own demise. From learning about the ecological standpoint of our green nature around earth, I found the topic exciting and an opportunity to see how we as humans can change the course of history for our planet. Yet what I come to find…

Horrors of the Madhouse In the mid 1800s, being sent to a madhouse was considered a horrible death sentence. Simply being in one could make a perfectly sane person go crazy in the short span of a week. A women Bly met in the institution said to her, "Criminals are given every chance to prove their innocence. These poor, overworked girls are convicted after a few trifling questions" (Ehrlich 63). Women were thrown into asylums simply because they cheated on their husbands, were physically sick…

Throughout the years people have claimed and argued their position towards a big question. Although the simple truth thesis states that big questions admit simple, obvious, and undisputable answers this is not true. Big questions never admit straightforward and unquestionable answers. A big question can be anything from What is Life? to Is capital punishment wrong? yet, I will focus on Does the adversarial process harm plaintiffs and Defendants?. I will argue that the legal system does harm…

a professor, which combined with the patient experience can make people rely on it. However, it does not provide any scientific evidence. There is only scientific evidence for the benefits of osteopathy and chiropractic for treating back pain. Most researches claiming the positive effects of complementary therapies are of insufficient methodological quality and evidence is usually based in a small number of trial made with small number of patients (Grazio and Balen, 2011). It makes that the…

supported. After grappling with my original coding of the transcript, I actually needed to redo that process in order to feel like my ideas were more cohesive. Was it easier or harder to think of supporting evidence for the disproving memo? It was easier for me to think of supporting evidence for the disproving memo because I had already evaluated myself so critically. On Monday, I had written a rough draft of the first memo, but when I revisited those thoughts I deleted most of what I had.…

The basses of Eliza’s claim comes from the fact that the ISP refused to offer her light duty work after she informed them that she was pregnant.

influence the audience with aren’t effective. All attempts at logos in the article are based on the opinions of Turkle followed by ploys at the emotional response of the audience. This method of a biased statement trailed by a sympathy stirring pass as evidence happens the entire article from the very first line. Turkle writes, “Face-To-Face conversation unfolds slowly. It teaches patience… We ask one another simpler questions; we dumb down out communications, even on the most important…

considering it was the most crucial event in my life. The author got the story completely wrong. How can I steal money from my company when I have already enough? To top it off, I can manage my money precisely well. I even have an accountant and evidence that none of this is true. Actually, I started from scratch to working for a big time company. I’ve worked hard for fifteen years to become a CEO of this company. To say that I did such a thing is preposterous. This part of the book is just…

Bigfoot Imagine walking through the woods alone one day when you hear a twig snap. You stand frozen and all of a sudden you look and there it is staring at you. It is tall, black, and hairy. It disappears in the brush and you know what you just saw. It was a bigfoot. Although many people don’t believe in bigfoot, there are a bunch of supporting facts that proves bigfoot does exist, like the Patterson Gimlin film, dna testing, sightings, and photographs by other people. The Patterson Gimlin…

Did Lincoln Free the Slaves? Most claim that Lincoln was this miraculous hero that freed the slaves through fearless fighting, but is the claim accurate? If you look at history from a rather literal perspective, Lincoln was not out fighting in the war, and made claims, such as the Emancipation Proclamation, in which he could not follow through with. He was not a complete believer in slavery, but he did see the value of it for southern states that relied on it for a source of significant income…
