Crucible practise essay

Hey guys, I'm just attempting to write a practise context essay, except I can't think of any good ideas for the paragraphs.

The topic is: A conflicts importance lies not in its causes but in its consequences

Any ideas for it?

Think of the consequences in conflict, what can result from a conflict?

Some things include suffering, growth and people acting out of the ordinary.

So then what should be the focus of my body paragraphs? One paragraph on how the consequences are positive, one on negative, and what else can I do? Or am I approaching this completely wrong?

Also, how do I address the 'cause' part of the topic? Does that mean I need to compare the causes with the consequences and decide which one is considered more important?

If you're stuck, I think the easiest way to tackle this prompt is to write one paragraph agreeing with the prompt, one disagreeing, and the last one pointing out the complexities in it. Perhaps something like how the causes can effect the consequences of conflict and that it's not just black and white.
Just make sure you include both parts of the prompt as they are equally important.
