Thesis statement for my essay on the LHC

In summary, the conversation revolves around a college student seeking help with their first essay, which is an analysis on the Large Hadron Collider. The student is struggling to come up with a strong thesis statement and is worried about not being able to think of one before the due date. Another person in the conversation suggests discussing whether or not the LHC will destroy the world, and the student agrees that it could be an interesting angle to take.

Im writing my first college essay, an analysis. I chose the large hadron collider because everyone else was doing healthcare reform and Iran testing warheads, thought this would be interesting. The only problem is I can't come up with a badass thesis statement for my essay, the thesis is due tomorrow, can anyone please help me? I won't copy anything word for word I just need something to go off of, I can't think right now.

Thanks a lot guys!

This is the best of times. This is the worst of times. The LHC in Geneva Switzerland is due to turn on in 5 weeks. Will the World as we know it come to an end when the LHC turns on? (From here, describe why the LHC will or will not destroy the World. Are the LHC builders brilliant scientists who are trustworthy and will discover the Higgs boson, or are they intent on destroying the World by creating a black hole.)

Thanks a lot bob, i think that's a good question because i can then talk about why it won't destroy the world since I am sure my english classmates won't know the answer to that.
