Speaking Ethically<\/h3>\r\nJonathan knows he hasn\u2019t really prepared for his speech very well. Instead of going to the library, he went to a party over the weekend. Instead of finding supporting evidence, he went to the movies with his best friend.\r\n\r\nTwo days before he\u2019s going to give his speech, Jonathan decides that he won\u2019t even bother with the library. Instead, he opts to just write out a quick speech and fill it with lots of \u201cflowery\u201d language. He creates a number of interesting similes and metaphors. He makes sure that his speech has a fun rhythm to it and has some great instances of alliteration.\r\n\r\nUpon finishing his preparation, Jonathan thinks to himself, Well, the speech may have no content, but no one will really notice<\/em>.\r\n
    \r\n\t
  1. Is it ever ethical to be devoid of content and opt instead for colorful language?<\/li>\r\n\t
  2. Should language ever be a substitute for strong arguments?<\/li>\r\n\t
