Issue
"Rituals and ceremonies help define a culture. Without them, societies or
groups of people have a diminished sense of who they are."
“Students should bring a certain skepticism to whatever they study.
They should question what they are taught instead of accepting it
passively.’
Argument
The following appeared as part of an article in a health magazine. “A new
discovery warrants a drastic change in the diets of people living
in United States. Two scientists have recently suggested that
omega-3 fatty acids play a key role in mental health. Our ancestors,
who ate less saturated fat and more polyunsaturated fat, including
omega-3 fatty acids, were much less likely to suffer from depression than
we are today. Moreover, modern societies—such as those in Japan and Taiwan—
that consume large quantities of fish report depression rates lower than that
in the United States. Given this link between omega-3 fatty acids and
depression, it is important for all people in the United States to increase
their consumption of fish in order to prevent depression.”
