Do you agree that change is an illusion according to Parmenides?

Yes. Parmenides did not argue against the appearance of change; he argued against its reality. According to him, there are rational, logical reasons why change is impossible. Since change is impossible according to reason and since change is actual according to our senses, either our reason or our senses must be unreliable. Parmenides thought that our reason was reliable and that our senses are unreliable. .


What a thesis statement should have?

Why is a thesis statement included in an essay? It is because it tests your ideas by putting them in a sentence or two, it organizes your argument and provides a "guide" to your argument. A well written thesis statement is: Assertive: It must state exactly what you are trying to say. Singular: Usually contains one idea. Specificity: Should be as specific as possible. Position: At the end of the introduction. Try the following example if you are having trouble with your statement: In this paper, I argue that _____, because/by _____. While critics argue _____, I argue _____, because _____. By looking at _____, I argue that _____, which is important because _____. The text, _____, defines _____ as _____, in order to argue _____.
