You are to select a moral issue you find compelling?capital punishment, pacifism, abortion, what have you?and say what a deontologist like Kant would say about it. Then you are to assess that argument. Your paper should, then, be structured like this: a) Some people grant that capital punishment causes distress and pain to the capital criminal, but say that the criminal has earned his suffering. This is a deontological argument in favor of c.p. b) Here?s what deontology is. La la la. c) Here?s what I think about this deontological justification for capital punishment. La la la. You should be able to do this in about a single page.
