For the paper, present a research paper on Ethics and Morality in the world around you:
You must pick ONE of these three topics:
1. If you are a religious person, write about an ethical conflict you have with your own religion’s tenants which you feel morally obligated to not follow.
This can be as brave as talking about gender and sexuality issues or as light as if you always follow the dietary practices your religion requires, (alcohol, smoking, kosher diet, or halal food for example). You must use at least two examples in your writing.
Use the correct terms you learned from the readings.
2. Write about the immigration in Europe. Should anyone be allowed into a sovereign country?
Pick a side and discuss the ethical and moral dilemma the arriving and receiving societies face. You must use at least two examples in your writing.
Use the correct terms you learned from the readings.
3. Write about enforcing an adult belief structure onto children who haven’t chosen it yet (FGM, for example). What are the moral and ethical challenges of this?
You must give at least two examples.

Be sure to use in-text citation and provide references for your sources, including textbooks.
