Thesis
People from different religions should be allowed to marry
because it is beneficial.
People from different religions should allow to marry because it
allows people to explore different religious culture and
behavior.
Even though some group of people and countries do not accept
inter-religious marriage, people should allow to explore
different religions because it is beneficial to create respect,
love, care, and peace between two different religious people.

Topic proposal: Inter religious marriage
My topic is going to be about Inter religious marriage. The
reason why I pick these topic because I have seen in many
country where couples get married with different religion and
face many obstacles. Many times situation get so difficult were
people are force to get kicked out from their country, church
,home and many more. In my research paper I want to talk
about why people are forced to get kicked out and why cannot

2. family accept inter religious marriage. an inter religious
marriage couples attempt tons of circumstances. “According to
Article 16 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, men
and women who have attained the age of majority have the right
to marry "without any limitation due to race, nationality or
religion". Even though we have right to pick whoever we want
to marry still, religion have become big issue because the way
how our parent raise us. I also want to acknowledge that
religion does not define our humanism. We should all learned to
respects every religion.
The inter religious marriage contribute to me and my
community because religious difference can bring unexpected
conflict in our married life. In other hand communities does not
always accept inter religious marriage because of their
traditional and their belief. Different religion have different
belief and everyone must follow their own belief. Community
people always consider about their people and whom should
women get married because inter religious will surface many
struggles and how children will grow up into. If couples have
different religion and whom should children follow, every
community and parent have desire that children must raise by
their parent religion.. Parents and community have passed down
cultural and tradition for generations. Therefore they want their
children to hold the generations for next generation. Parent
don’t usually accept inter religious marriage because of their
belief. They normally force their children to feel as they must
choose between their boyfriends or girlfriend nor parents. If
they go against and get inter religious marriage they are forced
to get kicked out and have no relationship with parents. Last but
not least every one have their right to choose.
This topic is very important to me because I want each of
us to know that religious does not define our humanism. It
doesn’t define who am I and who we are. we all have our own
religion and beliefs but it is important to be open minded. We

3. must respect all religion. I want to discover about inter
religious marriage because I am also a victim of inter religious
marriage. I know how bad situation can be and lead into. I have
face many difficulty and consequence. This is the reason why I
want to talk and teach all people through my research paper.
Many time we thought our society change because we in
different place and different language and etc. But we fail to
understand people and started judging. Inter religious marriage
have big impact on society because marriage should not be
taken for granted.

1302November 1, 2018What Makes Vegetarian Diets Healthier
?
Introduction: I will introduce what vegetarianism is and give
background information about how society perceives vegetarian
diets compared to non-vegetarian diets
Thesis : Although meat is enticing, a vegetarian diet is more
beneficial because of health reasons, environmental issues, and
life longevity

5. Body Paragraphs / Content :
I. There Are Major Health Benefits From Being A Vegetarian
A. A Healthier heart
1. Vegetarians have much lower cholesterol levels than meat-
eaters, and heart disease
is less common in vegetarians. The reasons are not hard to find.
Vegetarian meals
are typically low in saturated fat and usually contain little or no
cholesterol. Since
cholesterol is found only in animal products such as meat,
dairy, and eggs, vegans consume a cholesterol-free diet.
2. The type of protein in a vegetarian diet may be another
important advantage. Many studies show that replacing animal
protein with plant protein lowers blood cholesterol
levels—even if the amount and type of fat in the diet stays the
same. Those studies show that a low-fat, vegetarian diet has a
clear advantage over other diets
B. Helps Control Diabetes
1. The latest studies on diabetes show that a vegetarian diet
high in
complex carbo-hydrates and fiber (which are found only in plant
foods) and low in fat is the best dietary prescription for
controlling diabetes. A diet based on vegetables, legumes,
fruits, and whole grains, which is also low in fat and sugar, can
lower blood sugar levels and often reduce or even eliminate the
need for medication. Since individuals with diabetes are at high
risk for heart disease, avoiding fat and cholesterol is important,
and a vegetarian diet is the best way to do that.

6. C. Helps To Reduce The Risk of Cancer
1. A vegetarian diet helps prevent cancer. Studies of vegetarians
show that death rates from cancer are only about one-half to
three-quarters of those of the general population. Breast cancer
rates are dramatically lower in countries where diets are
typically plant-based. When people from those countries adopt a
Western, meat-based diet, their rates of breast cancer soar.
2. Vegetarians also have significantly lower rates of colon
cancer than meat-eaters. Colon cancer is more closely
associated with meat consumption than any other dietary factor.
II. Vegetarian Diets Help The Environment
A. Helps Save Water
1. “It takes more than 2,400 gallons of water to produce 1
pound of beef, while producing one pound of tofu only requires
244 gallons of water. By going vegetarian, one person can save
approximately 219,000 gallons of water a year” (“ Meat And
The Environment”). In other words, you’d take an average
swimming pool worth of water and you’d only be able to make
about 10 pounds of beef.
2. The amount of water it takes just to feed McDonald’s
customers daily requirement of beef, requires the water from 38
SeaWorld tanks—or roughly a third of a billion gallons of
water.Corn and potatoes only require 110 and 100 gallons of
water respectively to produce one pound of produce. For the
same amount of water, we can produce 20x more potatoes than
we can produce beef and 18x more corn.
B. Helps reduce greenhouse gases

7. 1. Methane is generated in the guts of animals, according to
Rob Jackson. The livestock sector of agriculture emits 37
percent of anthropogenic methane, which has 23 times the
global warming potential of carbon dioxide, according to the
Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nation’s
“Livestock’s Long Shadow” report.
2. The livestock sector is also responsible for 64 percent of
anthropogenic ammonia emissions, which contribute to acid rain
and acidification of ecosystems.
III. Vegetarianism Helps Increase Longevity
Have lower risk of death
1. A 2013 study of more than 70,000 people found that
vegetarians had a 12% lower risk of death compared with non-
vegetarians. With none of the saturated fat and cholesterol that
clogs arteries, vegetarians may be at a lower risk for chronic
diseases overall.
2. The foods of a vegetarian diet such as fruits and vegetables
provide nutrients that the body needs to be strong and healthy.
If you take care of your body by feeding it the right foods, your
body will take care of you. The foods of a vegetarian diets
provide one to have more energy. Meat is the main cause of
diseases, so when it eliminated you have a better chance of a
longer lifespan.
3. Vegetarian diets have the ability to reduce chronic diseases
which gives individuals a better chance at a longer lifespan.

8. Conclusion: I will restate my thesis and conclude why
vegetarianism is healthiest overall.

RESEARCH PAPER
A. What is research?
If you’ve watched any detective movies, you’ll find the job of
sleuthing that leads to finding a culprit to a crime, somewhat
interesting. When investigators interview their witness, read
through files and reports, piece together clues and attempt to
uncover criminals, their search is exciting. The enthusiasm is
often attributed to the purposeful excitement of discovering the
unknown. Yet, the people who may find murder mysteries
exciting may not be aware that academic research is in its
essence similar in nature to all other research. Honest and
inquisitive research writing demands attention to details. The
research process can be tedious. However, if you see the work
contributing to new knowledge and discoveries, you may find
research work meaningful. As you consider what others have to
say about your subject, you will become an expert on the
subject in your own right. You will form an in-depth knowledge
of the field that you care about, and you will be able to
communicate that to your audience. B. Why should you
document your sources?
As with all good research, some amount of library work is
essential. When using library research, you must be careful to
keep a thorough record of all your sources. Do refer to the
annotated bibliography assignment for the necessary items
needed for documentation. In your process of researching, you
must not only document your sources, but also analyze and
evaluate your sources. You must also draw from work done by
other researchers to form, support, and extend your own

16. opinions. You must practice intellectual integrity by presenting
the work others have done, accurately, and by acknowledging
your sources of information. You are expected to develop a
thesis for your topic, do research on it, form a position on your
findings, and develop argumentations in support of your thesis.
C. What are the general requirements of this assignment?
You must make sure that this research paper is not a mere
report, but a true research where you address societal concerns
by exploring new ways of dealing with real life problems. The
target audience must go away feeling that they’ve learned and
discovered something new from your research findings. You
must find a way of analyzing and studying your interest area
from a fresh, new perspective. The research must allow for the
readers to see a clear link between the findings and the analysis
of the underlying issues, themes, values, assumptions or beliefs
that control current ways of looking at the problem. You must
find a way to persuade your audience to draw new meanings and
new ways of seeing the world from the argumentations,
analysis, and findings. The research paper should present your
positioning on where you stand in the conflicting opinions of
the field and how you intend to resolve it. It is extremely
important that your arguments build towards a cohesive way of
seeing the field of study from a new-fangled perspective.
D. How do you pick a topic?
Know that your choice of topic is very important for your
research and that your topic proposal will be evaluated for
research worthiness before it will be approved for the research
project. Research worthiness will be evaluated on a scale of
how the topic appeals to the concerns of a common audience
and if it would have impact on the target audience. Obviously,
topics that are more controversial are usually seen as topics that
are more appealing to the masses. Having said that, what that
appeals to the masses may be areas that may not completely
satisfy the research worthy criterion as these may be topics that
have not been addressed in scholarly research or topics that

17. have very little impact value. Such topics would certainly be
disastrous for our purpose. Therefore, I suggest that you leave
such topics out. Be aware that all topics that do not meet the
criterion of research worthiness, will have to be reworked for a
better topic.E. Parameters for the assignment:
For the purpose of this research, you must write an eight to
twelve-page paper (excluding the references) on the topic that
you have proposed. The research paper must be based on the
research that was proposed, documented, and researched in this
class. All papers must be double spaced and presented in Times
New Roman 12pt. font, with a one-inch margin and presented in
the MLA format. All papers must have at least 10 MLA style in-
text citation and a minimum of 10 references in a MLA style
work cited page. These references should be from those that
were listed in your annotated bibliography. All research
material referred to and cited in the work cited page must be
presented in a research portfolio. Your research portfolio must
consist of all the materials below:
Research Process Total 2,000 points
Topic Proposal 100 points
Proposal Conference 200 points
Proposal Plan 100 points
Research Question 50 points
Thesis Development 50

Powerpoint Presentation 200 points
Research Evaluation 100 points
Research Paper 1,000 points
Topic Proposal and Research Plan:Below are the heuristics for
the topic proposal and research plan assignment:
· Topic proposal must be two pages long.
· Topic proposal must clearly define the area that you are
studying for the research paper.
· The topic must show be narrow enough for the length of the
assignment.
· The researcher must also suggest the reasons why he/she has
chosen to limit the research within the specific area. The
reasons can comprise of any particular social, political,
economical hardship, or problem that communities around the
world are facing. It is also crucial for the researcher to stipulate
how the researcher is directly or indirectly impacted by it as

19. well.
· The purpose for the topic proposal is to convince me and your
classmates that your topic is research worthy.
· After identifying the topic, it is crucial that the researcher has
a research plan.
· The purpose for the plan is for the researcher to have an
individualized timeline or plan for the completion of the final
research paper.
· The researcher is required to incorporate all the due dates
scheduled in his/her calendar into his/her plan towards the final
completion of the research paper.
