One-sided argument

map of the argument in the article “Dude” by Scott F. Kiesling. This argument mapping will do the following things. First, it will present what I believe are the main claims of the article. While doing this I will also explain any important terms or concepts needed to understand the Kiesling’s argument. I will then link the claims to the kinds of evidence that Kiesling uses in order to support them. Finally, I will close my argument mapping with an overview of how Kiesling’s argument is…

with the other side of my argument without sounding undecided and making the reader assume I’m more indecisive for which side I would rather be on with my argument rather than balancing both sides with an equal amount of tone and factual evidence. A question I would like to bring up would be if it’s possible, to add two compromises rather than just one main compromise, assuming I could make one compromise flow with the other, initially creating a clearer state of my argument to let the reader…

There are going to be instances in our lifetime where we will be in an argument. To a certain extent our opinions do matter but we need to separate facts from emotions. Many of our arguments can be true or false on some proclamations but we should be prepared for any counterargument. Logical fallacies can make your claims weak and untrustworthy which is one of the reason to avoid using them. Having strong arguments with evidence and limited bold statements will help your readers stay onboard…

The premises of an argument are just as important as the conclusion they are defending. The purpose of premises in an argument is to validate the conclusion. There are many approaches one can take to display their reasons in a logical manner.Three of the major supporting strategies are linear support, branching support, and joint support. Arguments do not need to have an abundance of reasons for its conclusion to be deemed legitimate. Linear support is an example of this. Linear support…

This helps identify healing progression and determines if changes need to be done to the wound care. During a visit to an assisted living facility (ALF), a wound care nurse used her camera to take pictures of the unhygienic facility. She stated “look at this filth; it’s no wonder the patient’s wounds won’t heal.” She related that she had sent some of the pictures to the state so the facility could be inspected. With great concern, she was reminded that the camera was only to be used for…

development program within her organization. With such a high profiled project, she is torn amongst her staff as to who should lead the project. The meeting with her staff and the potential candidates did not turn out as well as expected and led to an argument amongst her staff as to who would be a viable candidate for the position. In the meeting, there are two types of conflict preferences that arise, competition and avoidance. John has clearly been taking the stance of avoiding the issues…

and emotions in all areas of our lives. There are lots of reasons why couples argue with each other. It goes from arguing about simple factors to arguing about major incidents which can deeply harm the relationship. Arguments between couple deeply wear down the relationship and become one of the main reasons for separation. The quality of the relationship seems to have effects on the health of its members; harmonious interaction has a protective value and, conversely, a conflicting dynamic with…

World is putting their trainers in by having them work with their killer whales. In response Sea World published, on their website, an article titled "Truth about Blackfish". The article attempts multiple times to discredit "Blackfish" by using weak arguments and deception. These strategies fail by the end of the article and leave the readers unconvinced that Sea World is not harming their own killer…

In response to the displacement of understanding around religion into a fully observable and explainable phenomenon, a subset of scholars have argued to bring back an understanding of religion that is theological, giving respect to divine factors. One such scholar, German theologian and philosopher Friedrich Schleiermacher pushed the envelope within the study of religion, in his work On Religion, to emphasize the ownership that individual agents have in intuitively connecting with their…

achieved as a moral code, our structure of society must be changed. In this paper, I will argue that Peter Singer adequately presents his argument. I will also raise an objection to his argument and state his refutation of that objection. The objection raised is that charity and duty are separated by a line in our society which conflicts with Peter Singer’s argument. In the essay “Famine, Affluence, and Morality” Peter Singer addresses the idea that people…
