Update Sept. 9

Bellwrite: Write three concessions in response to Pollitt's article. Write a refutation following each of the concessions.

We finished our discussion of Pollitt's article (http://www.thenation.com/article/adam-and-steve-together-last#axzz2ePAW0mP1). We are working to identify assumptions underlying arguments about same-sex marriage:

1. Assumptions about the existence of God and absolute or relative morality
2. Assumptions about the origin and nature of man
3. Assumptions about the origin and purposes of marriage and sexual relationships
4. Assumptions about the relationship between government and morality

We finished our analysis of Colson's article (http://www.christianitytoday.com/ct/2004/june/8.72.html).

Homework: Do prewriting for your argumentative essay. Get all of your ideas down on paper so that we can organize and evaluate them during class on Wednesday.
