Documented Essay concerning the mosque that is to be built near Ground Zero

Hello,

I am writing an argumentative essay for my english class concerning the mosque that is to be built near Ground Zero. The paper needs to be five pages long (double spaced) with two or three points in my thesis. I am however having a hard time with my thesis and outline. The outline is for a longer paper, so it includes a roman numeral, two or three points, and two subpoints beneath each. As of now, I don't feel like my points are strong enough.

I could really use some help with my outline. I would post it on this site, but my teacher uses a program that checks for plagiarism, and I don't want her to think I stole my thesis. With that in mind, I could message my outline to anyone who wishes to help.

Thanks so much,

Tiffany

Hi Tiffany,

The way I check for plagiarism is to google selections of text and see what answers I get. If you post your essay here and include your full name in your profile, I would find the essay here with your name next to it. But I don't blame you for wanting to be careful!

The Mosque near ground zero is controversial, because the effort to build it is called the "Cordoba Initiative," and the "Cordoba" refers to a giant mosque that was built in Cordoba Spain, and I think it is associated in many people's minds with the idea of Islam conquering the western world. So, the arguments against the mosque are based on the idea that the name of the Cordoba Initiative is intended to be like a celebration of a victory at ground zero, which would not be appropriate.

The other side of the argument is that freedom of religion is obviously an important American value. And the name Cordoba also is associated with an era of peace that occurred after the victory in Spain, and so instead of referring to an Islamic victory it could simply be referring to the ideal of peace.

Anyway, the most important thing is for everyone to try to heal up and be tolerant, especially at Ground Zero. I look forward to reading what you write about it!

Google around to find videos with Imam Rouf and the other people who are speaking about this issue! There is a lot of info online...
