Abstract

Group Member: Martha Cloud

I plan to use a well organized website to argue my point across that gay marriage should be legalized. I plan on using plenty of well researched evidence that showcases the different reasons as to why gay marriage should be legal. I will provide links to websites that argue that denying gay people the right to marry is unconstitutional, that the Bible is an outdated way of trying to deny certain people rights, that it is morally wrong to discriminate against someone due to their sexual orientation, among other reasons. 

The website will provide well organized information to allow the reader to not only see the arguments for gay marriage, but also the counterarguments that are against gay marriage. This will allow the reader to hear all sides of the argument and will also allow me to provide information and links that show how most all of these counterarguments have significant flaws and to prove that the main reason people do not want gay marriage legalized is because they are not comfortable with the idea, not because they think the Bible says so. I also plan on including websites that show what actions are being taken in order for gay marriage to be legalized, such as things like Proposition 8 in California, among others. 

Outline

Group Member: Martha Cloud

1. Introduction/Homepage

- I will introduce my topic and explain my stance on it. I will introduce my thesis. 

2. Arguments as to Why Gay Marriage Should be Legal

- Equal rights should be provided to all Americans, not just those who are straight. 

- The Bible is an outdated way of trying to justify discriminating against gay people.

> Specifically, we do not judge people for having premarital sex or getting a divorce, yet both of those are in the Bible as things we are not supposed to do. 

- If gay people are not allowed all of the benefits that come with being an American citizen, they should not have to put up with the drawbacks that come with being an American citizen, such as paying taxes. 

- The government is not legally allowed to discriminate against someone due to religion or race, therefore they should not be able to discriminate against someone due to their sexual orientation. 

- If gay marriage is eventually legalized, since gay couples cannot naturally have children together, it would increase the number of children being adopted and taken out of orphanages. 

- Gay people do not choose to be gay. They do not choose to lead a lifestyle that means they will be discriminated against for their entire lives, and therefore we should not judge or discriminate against them for something they cannot change about themselves. It would be the same thing as judging someone for being born a different race. 

3. Address Counterarguments

- The Bible says it isn't right, even though divorce is also an "abomination", yet one on two couples in America gets a divorce. Also, the government has no right to pass a law based on something in the Bible because not everyone in American is Christian and the freedom to believe in what you want is part of the building blocks of America. 

- Gay marriage will lead to polygamy and will degrade the the sacred institution of marriage. 

- Gay couples are not natural because they cannot produce children, even though the world is suffering from overpopulation. 

- Gay couples cannot raise children because a child needs a male and female parent, even though single parents are praised for their hard work raising children by themselves without a father or mother figure. 

- Gay couples will raise gay children, even though historically most gay people were raised by straight parents. 

4. Take a Look Back on Other Controversial Issues From the Past:

- Society is always going to change and we have to allow it to change. 

- Black people were once slaves, women were once property, interracial marriage was once illegal, etc. These were all once controversial issues such as gay marriage is today. All of these issues included a denial of rights because of someone's sex, race, etc. and they all seem ridiculous and entirely prejudice today. 

5. Measures Being Taken

- Discuss things such as Proposition 8 in California and other advances for gay rights. 

Topic

Group Member: Martha Cloud

My topic is going to explore the controversial issue of gay marriage. I am going to argue that it should be legal, but I am going to focus on closely looking at the arguments against gay marriage and explain why there are major flaws in many of them. I am also going to look at how gay marriage being illegal still in most places is discriminatory and how it causes many problems for straight people as well as gay people. 

Abstract: Moon Landing (Donnie, Ian, Alexis)
Our multimedia project will be a short video introducing our argument. The video will contain clips and short phrases that get out point of view across to the audience. We will have flashy pictures that will grab the viewers eye and show the reasons why the moon landing is impossible! We will have some sort of music playing in the background(probably some trippy music by Perpetual Groove) while we have professionals explain why this event never could have occurred.

Outline for: Moon Landing (Donnie, Ian, Alexis)
