Thesis Statement

1.  (Weak) I'm going to write about Darwin's concerns with evolution in The Orgin of the Species.
     
     Darwin's concern with survival of the fittest in The Origin of the Species leads him to neglect a potentially conflicting aspect of his theory of evolution-survival as a matter of interependence.

2.   (Weak) An importand part of one's college education is learning to better understand others' points of view.
    
       Although an important part of one's college education is learning to better understand others' points of view a persistent danger is that the students will simply be reuired ot substiture the teacher's answers for theones they grew up uncritically believing.

3.   By inventing terms, such as "loose fit" and "relaxed fit", the jean industry has attempted to normalize, even glorify, its product for an older fatter generation.

       (Weak) The jeans industry targets its advertisements to appeal to young adults.

4.    (Weak) Othello is a play about love and jealousy.

       Although Othello appears to attack jealousy, it also supports the skepticism of the jealous characters ober the naivete of the lovers.

5.    (Weak) The songs of the punk rock group Minor Threat relate to the Feelings of indiciduals who dare to be different. Their songs are just composed of pure emotion. Pure emotion is very important in music, because it serves as a vehicle to convey the important message of individuality. Minor Threat's songs are meaningful to me because I can identify wiht them.

      The punk rock group Minor Threat uses emotional lyrics to appeal to their target audience, which considers itself individualistic and therefore the lyrics must convey a message of individuality.

My Thesis Statement:

The tragic My Lai Massacre is virtually unknown to the public, and history of the Vietnam war because it shows an unfavorable light on the United States.
1. No.
2. Yes original and arguable.
3. Yes
