.... of slavery in territorial plans like the Kansas-Nebraska scheme to support their arguments.

Proslavery whites launched a defensive against slavery which explained the "peculiar institution" as a positive good, supported, in fact, .....

Surrogate parenting is highly controversial by its very nature.

However if the argument will decide who gets the parking spot on 187th and Amsterdam, or whether you have a week or a month to write an essay, you may want to consider getting into the dispute. If fighting arguments is just an “ego boost” or hobby, then disregard the above. The next item to take into consideration is your background on the topic. You should never enter an argument you have no information about, because it will only end in “your mother is a .....” insults.
