“ Should one's freedom of religion be taken away”?
Many Muslim women and men have been judged due to their beliefs and their self expression such as Nijab Khan a muslim woman who was fired unfairly for wearing a hijab to work. In this case the first amendment protects freedom of religion but there are also judgements and assumptions. The main threat they assume comes from Muslim this causes negative impacts towards their religion and society.
According to “women fired for wearing a hijab, boss tells her to keep religion out of the office (published in August 2016 written by Rachael Revesz )”. A Muslim woman was fired as she refused to remove her hijab to work. Najaf Khan decided to wear her hijab on the third day working in her new job at a dental care clinic she was allegedly told she would have to remove her hijab otherwise she would lose her job but she refused. The First Amendment states that a person should have the right to believe any kind of religion and the right of self-expression.
There is discrimination towards them for the simple reason of having a religion that someone had and has been accused of murder or any crime.
Equally important there are negative impacts towards society and someone's beliefs the impact towards certain religion is that people believe most of them people are terrorists causing more problems and rumors towards them the impact towards Society is that people misunderstand their belief due to the reason of someone committing a crime and being Muslim or having the same religion. The impacts have spread all over the world that muslim woman and man are being banned due to their believes. This can relate to many hispanic people that sometimes are viewed as if they were less or are not given the same opportunities as someone that was born in the united state.
Finally, this leads us to Banning them from public places for example troops order of banning Muslim visitors from airports this article is written by Laura King for end on January of 2017 they are they are be treated with disrespect and are being assumed a terrorist which is unfair to them and their religion. Examples relating to negative judgements and assumptions are “ CNN ugly encounter leads to apology and should hijabs be banned in French schools these articles show how people think and the way they view the religion to the point of wanting wanting to ban it in certain schools. This is significant because it is unfair to treat them and their religion unfairly and with disrespect.
To conclude with, unfortunately there will always be unfair treatment towards people no matter their race or religion. There are ways to be against those judgement and not part of them that way is to be respectful and understanding. People shouldn't go through judgement or negative impacts. We should not only be protected by the First Amendment but by their community and the president of the United States.

Is Google negatively affecting our intelligence?
Google has been around for many years and it has been affecting children's and adults intelligence.
As written in “Google effect: is technology making us stupid” many experts have thought technology has been influencing the ability of thinking it has also affected students, kids, and parents with many distractions making us check our phones and check out an interesting ad making google earn large amounts of money while we are distracted from the real world around us.
To start with, There are large amounts of distractions causing children to slow down, written in “Is Google making us stupid ”The net bombards us with bits of data and message and every one of those interruptions break our train of thoughts”. On a daily basis as personal experience, my phone can ring or send alerts that distract me from any activity or doing homework. The number of distractions can increase according to google effects “The average human attention span fell from 12 seconds in 2000 to eight seconds today”The number of distractions it causes its concerning. For example, some of my friends spend their free time on their phone listening to music, texting, and using google instead of enjoying their free time. This means Google has also affected the attention span of an average human. Unfortunately, distractions aren't the only way Google has affected people but it's also the ability of thinking.
Equally important, as mentioned previously google has also affected the ability to think. According to “ Google Effects: is technology making us stupid” A recent study states 90 percent of us are suffering from digital amnesia”. This can be dangerous in case of getting lost in a large place and losing personal belongings a parent, son or daughter may not be able to communicate if a number cannot be remembered. As stated in google effects As written: “our brains rely on the memory of a friend, family member or co-worker written by google effect source”. This has happened to many of us our brains are so used to technology that they rely on them and don't have the ability to remember. This is not the only problem one example is While we are so entertained scrolling through Google we don't realize they are getting paid while we are hypnotized. Lastly, as said before google earns a large amount of money while people scroll infinite amounts of ads, app and videos in a web. As stated “ Google doesn't want us to slow down. The faster we zip across a web, clicking links and skimming words the more money it makes written by google effects”. This means google gets paid while people click on websites or links not knowing the damage they are causing to their brain. The way people use their and intelligence and brain has changed an example is before we had to think t solve a problem now we have google to search up the answers. As written in is google making us stupid, “ Even though google gives us many articles and useful information it also encourages us to think superficially”.
In conclusion, google has changed how people think and lowered their intelligence damage can be prepared by lowering the amount of time a person spends on their smartphone this way the percentage of people being distracted by google as well as the ability to think will improve and google getting payed will lower.

Junk Food Essay
Over twenty-five million children in the United States are overweight. Schools are trying to reduce the number by banning junk food from the cafeteria. Some have stopped selling to see if this is the solution to reducing the rate of people who are “obese.” One side of this topic argues that there are other contributing factors while others say that the best way is to reduce the junk food intake at school. Over time, experts say that children will have a shorter lifespan than their parents. In various articles, such as New York Times Upfront and Medical Daily, there are many perspectives on this argument. A school cafeteria should be restricted from selling junk food due to the increase in death rates guilty pleasures, and children being bullied.
First and foremost, over the years there has been an increasement in death rates. Being obese increases risk factors of heart disease. According to the text “Nearly 300,000 people die each year from complication associated with being obese or overweight (The New York Times Upfront)”. This ingreasement can be lowered by banning junk food from schools. As seen in the Norton Center infographic charts, “(Seventy percent) of obese children have at least one risk factor for heart disease …(thirty nine percent) have at least two or more factors (Eating disorder, 2012).” This will eventually increase heart disease if cafeterias don't restrict junk food from students. Unfortunately there are many more contributing factors besides heart disease and death rates such as junk food causing guilty pleasure.
Equally important, guilty pleasures contribute to child obesity. As previously said, the increase in death rates is a reason for restricting junk food but it isn't the only motive. Guilty pleasures are addictions that you secretly do but then feel bad about. According to the text, “Puffy snacks, for example, melt very quickly in your mouth, so you desire another bag...that doesn’t sound too bad, but once you have three bags, that’s [four-hundred fifty] calories and [seven-hundred fifty] milligrams of sodium” (Medical Daily, 2004). In other words, children are building up an addiction for junk food and they don't know when to stop. That is to say, these addictions are not healthy for them, yet the schools still sell junk food. According to the text, “As far as sugary snacks, new research shows sugar may be just as addicting as crack…[they] simply find other ways to sneak in their favorite junk foods” (Medical Daily, 2014). In other words, the way they compare this to crack shows how difficult it is becoming for kids to leave junk food. Essentially, the school cafeteria shouldn’t be selling junk food to prevent these problems. One side claims that junk food should stay in schools, while the other side claims otherwise. This point of view makes sense since they already give junk food as their lunch. However, guilty pleasures and the increase in death rates are not the only factors. Junk food doesn’t help children in anyway. Therefore, the cafeteria should be restricted from selling junk food.
All thing considered, schools should stop selling junk food because of children being bullied over how they look.Students judge each other based on how underweight and overweight you are.According to the Norton Center Infographic it clearly states, “26% of sixth graders are bullied,teased or rejected daily based on their size.” This means that at least ¼ of students get bullied for their weight on a daily basis. As stated in the text of Norton Center’s Infographic it illustrates, “Since 1970,childhood obesity rates have increased by 500%” This proves schools should stop selling junk food because it shows how children bullying increases as we grow. Although some may say schools should continue selling junk food since it helps raise money, it is wrong to do so because money isn’t more important than how a child feels about going to school and their healthy needs.Schools should stop selling junk food because it contributes to bullying.
To sum up, junk food in the cafeteria does not benefit the students at all. The significance behind this argument is that essentially this will help kids have a healthier lifestyle. Discrimination is one of the motives to why this topic is being pushed. Unfortunately, body image plays a big part in our society. Over time, the cost of obesity-related healthcare costs have risen. As a result, there are an increase in death rates, junk food is a guilty pleasure, and children are being bullied in school. Making this change will help benefit children positively.
