Argumentative (sample)

Meat should be allowed on Campus- yes or no.

Ms. Tomali, fellow students, good afternoon. It’s obvious my opponent is a meat eater, a meat eater who holds different values than that of the institution.

His reason for being bias is that he loves the taste of meat! He is confused, my reason is that I have accepted and respected the University meat policy.

As an institution of higher learning,  the University believes in the principles of the Bible; and for this reason we use the book as our guideline.

My opponent says that the principles of the Bible are not being upheld, what he fails to understand is that as an institution we cannot force you to follow our way of eating, However, you must accept the policies of the institution.

My opponent says you have a choice; we say, no doubt, you had a choice and you choose to be here, so please respect the policies, simple. Furthermore, according to the University conduct code, signed by all, it says, I quote, “no meat is allowed on campus”!

And, furthermore whoever said fish is meat?

Those of us who have done food and nutrition in the past would know that fish is not meat; it falls below the category of fish.

Jesus gave the people fish and so do we, while it may not be prepared and served at the cafeteria, it is prepared and served at the food center across campus for all who desire.

Importantly, my opponent may not believe in our way of eating but as an Institution, we will not tie him to chair and force feed him. He has a choice 

And finally, my opponent wonders how a man can serve two masters. I leave the choice to you; you decide who is  master and who is servant.

I thank you.
