FREE DOWNLOADING OR NOT?

Free downloading something, such as mp3, films, videos, from Internet should not be illegal. Because, there are so many users this way all around the world that, maybe, they don't know it is illegal. Actually, we, students, even can enter the Internet to download something easily. And, the sites where everything is downloaded are so common and don't have any legal warnings. While we downloading something, there is no any ban for not downloading. So, we can think that it is not illegal. In fact, There are some people who have a strong punishment because of free downloading. However , those examples are not so many. Thus, those punishments aren't deterrent and don't prevent people from doing it.

As a result, if somebody wants to avoid downloading for free, there will be more concrete obstruction. If not, it should be legal, then.

WRONG TO KILL SOMEONE DELIBERATELY

Euthanasia means to kill deliberately a person who is very ill and going to die, in order to stop him/her suffering. There has been an argument, which is if euthanasia shoul be or not. I think it should not be implemented.
Because, even if the patient has a very incurable illness, we cannot know whether there will be a cure for the illness causing the patient to be bounded up with a machine to live in the future, maybe one, two or five years later, or not. If we implement euthanasia soon, I can say that we intentionally kill the person and it means we have a crime actually. Then there should be punishment, ı think. I see the people who implement and are contented to euthanasia as murderer. Moreover, when we look each religion such as Islam, Chiristianity, judaism etc. we cannot say euthanasia is suitable according to religious rules.Because, in religious rule, we cannot see that to kill a person deliberately is unacceptable, except from some cases.They say that only God knows when, where, how a person will die, not any people. When we look what the opposite ideas are. They say that if a person lives in pain, ending his/her life can be much better. Nevertheless, we cannot know when the cure will be found, maybe today or tomorrow. In conclusion, if there is a way to have a cure soon or later, we should wait only, but not to order to kill anybody.

WHAT IS WRONG?


There are some websites in the Internet having a ban on them not to visit legally, which is acceptable to me actually. Firstly, the reason why the government bans these websites is content they have, I think. The content may be opposite of what the government has a national or something else virtues. I mean, if you were a government , you would want everyone in your state to have a respect towards the national virtues of government. Naturally, in the border of your country you would not want anyody to disobey your rules. For example, when some websites have content in which there are disrespectful showing, essays etc. about someone who are important for your state in the past, it should be a ban or resrict on them. A few years ago, a website called 'youtube', a video sharing site, had a video having an unacceptable things about Atatürk, our first leader. Then, the government gave a restrict on the website that the school or related to government school cannot enter the websites any more. Someone said about this case that it was a press restrict and it should not be. However, I can say against this idea that to abuse someone's special life cannot be considered a freedom. In conclusion, if there is something wrong about virtues of government has, there should be a ban.





MONEY OR FAMILY?


There is an argument that which one is the most important; to have little money, but much time with your family or to have much money. but little time with your family. Firstly, I think family and friends' relationship is more important than money. It means that not money but family gives us happiness or inner needs such as love, the sense of belongings etc. you can have cars, houses, etc. with your money but you annot take your happiness, etc. For example, there are a lot of example of people who are rich and have a lot of but not happy. Secondly, we will not stay in the world as long as we want forever. Therefore, we shouldn't spend most of our time by only working. We should have and spend time with our family and friends, too. As a result I can say that we can live a little money, but not without happiness, love etc.

COMPARE THEM (WHICH ONE IS MUCH BETTER)
We discussed the adventage and disadvantge of online and face to face education in our courses last week. Firstly, we formed a group with some my classmates. And we started to talk about this topic. We all have a common belief that traditional, face to face education is always much better than online one. There are o lot of reasons for it. First of all, in traditional education , you can use your all senses, such as eyes, ears, touch etc. You can say that we have them in online education,as well. But we don't have any lively contact with our teacher in online education. And, in learning business, lively things are much better. So, we must see who teaches us, how s/he teaches etc. We must use our senses,that is. Second reason, in learning, people are given trust. In face to face education, you can give and take the trust. But, in online, we don't have always.In spite of everything, we can't say that the online education is unnecessary. It has some good quality,as well.
Finally, I think both of these education styles are necessary. We can use both together for forming a good education....
Finallly, I think that
