Write a paper of at least 2,000 words [Garamond 12 or TNR 12; spacing 1.5; margins: 1.5]. You can choose any of the following topics:
Topic One. The Ethics of Abortion. Use as primary sources the two essays discussed in class (Thomson and Marquis). Explain as carefully as you can the nature of abortion as an ethical problem. Describe Thomson and Marquis views and explain how they differ and how they may, to some extent, overlap. Examine possible objections to each view. Present your own view on the issue backing it up with solid reasons/arguments.
1) Title of the Paper (as informative as possible of what the reader will find when reading your essay);
2) Introduction (half a page max.; explain, as clear as possible, the thesis you will be defending);
3) Development of your Argument(s) (main portion of your paper; roughly 75-80% of the total length);
4) Conclusion (a clearly laid-out concluding paragraph presenting a brief retrospective evaluation of what your paper has accomplished).
