What is a good controversial topic for an essay?

Good work...really nice to see that these couple adopt children..actually iam opposed for this type of marriage but nice to see this people giving life for a parentless child. its 100% true that celebrities making whole lot of money easily. Its the first time iam hearing this..government ordering people to say happy holidays.could you just say which country is that? i would like to know?

stem cell research and gay marraige could be controversial...but i feel stem cells are the futr of science..after all, its the ONLY step to understand human body in more details nad more over ETHICAL stem cell research is something wvery one would agree but will not get for sure..!!! gay marraige are something personal for the two, the community should be out of it! so u get my views about it....lets c wat others say about it.. there's one more... "should terrorist be hanged" let the human rights and the government fight over it!!!

I like the Merry Christmas one, or a very topical topic is of course yes or no to Abortion....or animal rights is another one...anyway good luck I hope you do well.

here in the US, some good ones are For or Against the war ? Illegal Immigrants..give them amnesty or deport them? President Bush.. anything about him Celebrities adopting children from other countries instead of the USA Racism is always controversial any where you go Religion is always heated.. Christian vs Atheist Government Corruption Political correctness.. has it gone to far? and on and on and on

i like the last one.. the merry christmas happy holidays.. yeah it is a good starting point and it has a very interesting setting.. good luck!

well, i have this one topic in mind.. "Are you in favor of deporting illegal aliens from the US to their home countries?".. this is a very interesting topic in my opinion.. there are lots of people who are considered illegal aliens here in the states.. but for me, they are still paying taxes when they purchase goods inside US.. they do blue collar jobs that other citizens or immigrants will surely refuse to do (i.e. picking up fruits and vegetables under the heat of the sun).. well, you can start off from there..

Anything with abortion is controversial. I have a mommy group on myspace and everytime someone brings up abortion a fight breaks loose.

LOL! Here's one you can start: Why a 123lb non-drinker should never have 5 shots in a row?

English departments of universities should be replaced by departments of story telling all the best urban

hm...I wonder about the last topic. In which country and why government workers can't say Merry Cristmas??? here in Lithuania there is no difference what kind of worker are u...

Speaking of a controversial topic, I think the g*y couple adopting children will be a good one. Apart from these in my country a controversial issue can be something on religion, something on girl child birth, something on female molest*tion or child abuse. The list is endless.

I double checked and it's ecstasy not heroin! Although it's not far behind!

You could always fall onto the old, but always controversial, topic of abortion. People feel so strongly one way or the other that it is sure to spark some interest or controversy.
