Pro Evolution Atheists would be pro-evolution, as evolution tends to use scientific evidence to justify its assumptions. According to the BBC website, "Atheists say that far from God being a good explanation for the world, it's God that now requires explaining." They would most likely be uncomfortable with creationism, as it is based in Christian values. Pro Atheists tend to stress the equality of male and female, and therefore would likely support the study of women's rights in the middle east. In fact, according to the BBC website,...

...Abortion in America: Right to Life or Right to Choose Paul Day, Felicia Jones, Thomas Ratcliff, Theresa M. Saau, Natasha Sabbah BCOM 275 June 26, 2014 Cecile Morris Abstract Abortion in America: Right to Life or Right to Choose Arguments for or against performing abortions in the United States, persist and are highly debatable. Since the 1973 Federal Supreme Court ruling of Rowe versus Wade, abortions have become established as legal in the United States. (Glendon, 2003) Legalized abortion in the United States, has received strong support from Pro-Choice proponents such as Planned Parenthood. (Planned Parenthood, 2014) Pro-Choice advocates for abortion, believe that pregnancies can be allowed to be ended prematurely. (MNT, 2009) Pro-Life advocates, on the other hand, view abortion as murder to human life. Opponents to legalizing abortions performed in the United States, often include Pro-Life supporters and certain religious groups. The issue of abortion in American society often involves individual belief and personal choice. The five members of the University of Phoenix’s BCOM/275, Learning Team C, have separated into two groups to debate the pros and cons relating to the legalization of abortions in the United States. Three team members debated the abortion topic from a Pro-Life perspective, and two team members sought to represent the Pro-Choice position. A team debate was held on June 13, 2014. The purpose of the debate, was to gather information from...

...the United States. The pro immigration side argues that we all got here through immigration. Therefore we should not restrict immigration in any way. Another issue the pro side has is that immigrations is good in the sense that it creates diversity. This is a great thing because it helps people see that the “American” way is not the only way to do things. The next issue the pro side would claim is cheap labor. California and Texas specifically benefit from this more than any other state. Additionally, the pro side presents the case of giving the illegal alien a better opportunity then they have in their home country. Lastly, they argue that the benefits, such as taxes, outweigh the costs that an immigrant will incur. The idea is that an immigrant buys our products and lives in our country, which contributes to our G.D.P. On the other side of the argument, the con-immigration side argues that the immigrants steal jobs from the U.S. residents. Since immigrants can be paid cheaper wages, an employer would rather pay an immigrant than a resident. The next issue the con side has it that immigrants bring problems to America, such as cultural differences and language barriers. Not only do they bring problems, but according the con side, they cause problems as well. They argue that because there are more immigrants trying to get in the country than there are border patrol agents, they cannot protect the country like they are supposed to. Another issue the con side has is that the money...

...Research paper on Stem Cell Research Legislation and the related legal issues: What is the history of Stem Cell Research Legislation in the United States? How does it compare to comparable statutes in the rest of the world? In this paper talk about what the current legislative state of affairs is and where the law on stem cells in the United States should go in the future and why. Make sure you use ample research and cited sources to support your arguments but make sure to state your own opinion on the issues as well. Stem Cell Research TJ AS OF: 2/4/2009--Introduced. Stem Cell Research Improvement Act of 2009 - Amends the Public Health Service Act to require the Secretary of Health and Human Services to conduct and support research that utilizes human embryonic stem cells, regardless of the date on which the stem cells were derived from a human embryo. Limits such research to stem cells that meet the following requirements: (1) the stem cells were derived from human embryos donated from in vitro fertilization clinics, were created for the purposes of fertility treatment, and were in excess of the needs of the individuals seeking such treatment; (2) prior to donation, it was determined that the embryos would never be implanted in a woman and would otherwise be discarded; and (3) the individuals seeking fertility treatment donated the embryos with written informed consent and received no financial or other inducements.

...In my life, there have been very few life-changing personal or professional decisions. But in each of those occasions, one thing was required in each, and that was a decision-making process. One of my most recent decisions I had to make was whether to leave the Active Duty Army after seven years of service, or not. The first step in process was to identify what the issue or problem was. In this case, the issue was if I was going to stay in the Army, or let my contract expire and get out. After establishing the decision that was to be made, the next step in the process was to weigh the pros and cons of leaving, and the same for staying. The pros and cons list for leaving the military were derived from asking myself what will be the direct result on myself and my family, upon separating from the Army. Once that list was complete, I came up with a list of pros and cons for staying in the Army, based on what the direct result it would have on myself and my family. After completion of the pros and cons of both decisions, I sat down with my wife and we brainstormed ideas on what I could do to help minimize the cons in either situation. Then, we came up with an list of what was most important to least important for us and our future. This list enabled us to look at the pros of either decision, and determine which decision addressed the most important needs in our life and future plans. Now that both decision choices were broken down by pros and cons, it was easier to come...

...article, what are the pros and cons of having a virtual team? Like everything in life, there are pros and cons, and virtual teams aren’t any differ, the first pro would be flexibility. Flexibility is an important aspect in regards to work school, or anything that occurs in everyday life. Flexibility allows workers to create a schedule that works best for them so they can juggle job duties, along with everyday life. This particular pro is one that I use on a daily bases, which allows me to do online classes, and still be a mom, and wife. If an employee works from their home, they don’t have the worry of paying for fuel or parking, which can be quite expensive (Divol & Fleming, 2012). Like pros there are also cons involved with virtual teams, technology can be a problem at times especially if the computer or internet goes down, which in this case, you’ll need to have a backup plan. If the employee or the boss need to communicate about something, it can be difficult because you are not able to observe body language, which may be vital for the company. In some cases the consumer has questions to ask about a particular product, and if they prefer to speak with the employee in person, this can be challenging. Another con is a pet peeve of my own, which is not being able to interact with other team members. You can communicate with one another via email, through text messages, but it isn’t the same as talking in person. You just have to weigh the pros and cons to see which option...

...people. Unused stem cells are being discarded instead of being used for research. (“Frequently asked questions.” 3) Stem cells are quite resourceful. They can easily be taken from our own bodies and stored just like blood. During radiation or chemotherapy, white and red blood cells can get damaged. These affected cells can easily be replaced with healthy stem cells that adapt. (Pros and cons of stem cell research, 1)The biggest debate about this topic isn’t about whether stem cells work, but who’s going to pay for the research. It’s not a matter of pro-life or pro-choice, it’s pro-science. If my family had the finances for stem cell therapy, we would have made sure that my grandmother was in as little as pain as possible when she was diagnosed with myeloma. No matter what type of injury or disease, cells can easily be replaced with healthy stem cells. (Pros and cons of stem cell research, 1) Stem cells are their own navigators in the body. When an area is affected by any type of disease or injury, they know exactly what to do. Stem cells have capability of growing into almost any type of cell. (Pros and cons of stem cell research, 1)Stem cells can be used in aiding those with Parkinson’s disease for the pain, they can be used in face lifts to...
