Animal Experimentation- Views From Two Classical Ethics
Theorists : 6 pages in length. The ethical nature of animal
experimentation has long been debated as to whether or not
it stands as a necessary element for humanity. After all, the
primary -- if not only -- reason animals are utilized in
laboratory tests is to further the interests of mankind, often
without the least bit of concern for the animals who forfeit
their lives in exchange for medical, cosmetic and household
product advancements. Classical ethics theorists Emile
Durkheim and Immanual Kant may have had similar
viewpoints on some issues, but when it came to concerns
over the ethical fortitude of animal experimentation, the
writer discusses how Durkheim would have befriended the
animals' plight long before Kant would have, who adopted a
utilitarian concept. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

An Argument for the Legalization of Marijuana : 8 pages in
length. Although the writer of this essay does not
necessarily endorse the use of marijuana, (s)he agrees with
the argument that it is politically-incorrect to outlaw it in the
United States. Very good points are made from the history
of marijuana's existence in the country as well as the similar
case of alcohol prohibition during the 1920's. The writer
feels that the FDA should regulate the drug so that smokers
do not risk using pot that is sneakily mixed with other
substances. Medical evidence of marijuana's comparatively
mild effects is presented and the report concludes that the
negative impacts of marijuana's ban are far worse than those
that would prevail if it were allowed to be sold openly and
legally. Bibliography lists 4 sources. Marijle2.wps
