Considering Types

This post will break down the ways in which I will consider developing my argument.

Position Argument: This is an interesting idea for argument that might work for me in which I argue for the idea that is held by myself and many prominent members of the technology community.  I think that this is my best option because it allows for a lot of variance and allows me to defend a viewpoint but also not focus on refuting, more on supporting certain positions.


Causal Argument:  This would not work for my argument.  The cause for my subject is difficult to pinpoint, and it would not be effective to prove my point and get my message across because the cause is simply not the focus.


Evaluative Argument: This also is also a type of argument that I don't think will serve well to my project. Mostly this is because this focuses on something that hasn't transpired physically, so it is important


Proposal Argument: I would have definite trouble coming up with a proposal that I or many other people interested in technology would be satisfied with.  There is nobody who can come up with a satisfactory proposal for technology that does not yet exist.


Refutation Argument:  I would not want to create a refutation argument because I think that while there are clearly viewpoints that are due to misinformation that could be cleared up I do not want to focus on refuting when it is more important to prove my own viewpoint.  Also, because the subject is highly theoretical, it is difficult to put down other arguments with confidence.

I noticed that generally causal arguments are difficult for people to feel confident about and generally feel like something is missing from them.  Although typically the rest of the subjects were considered equally.  I think that my subject is in a tough position where it is difficult for it to apply well to most of the types of arguments.
