So…the exam is two days away! Any comments?..Thoughts?..Worries?

Here’s what we’ll do too. Someone will present an argument in one sentence (a well-developed thesis), and the next person to reply must accept, refute, or qualify that argument. Then that person will make a new argument. Feel free to include any ethos, pathos, logos, rhetorical strategies. This thread isn’t for fun in the technical sense, it’s for accumulative review.

EXAMPLE (for accepting the argument):

Space exploration should be encouraged because natural resources on Earth are dwindling and the want of human discovery necessitates it.

[I agree.] It is wrong to hinder the human desire to explore new worlds. Not only that, aerospace technological developments have opened new paths for other life-saving technologies, such as the pacemaker.

Oh, and let’s define new vocabulary every post we make while we discuss for more studying. >.<

Muliebrity - the condition of being a woman / feminine qualities or characteristics.
