I'm writing a piece of column writing for school. It needs to have an opinion and be provocative. I'm writing about indulgence and asking whether or not over-indulgence is such a bad thing... any ideas, I'm stuck!!!

First off, you need to decide your particular stand on your issue--is it or is it not bad? If so, why do you feel the way you do? If not, then why not? Are there any exceptions to your opinion; and if so, what would those exceptions be?

From the phrasing of your q, I'm assuming you're going for "over-indulgence is ok". You could put this kind of twist on it - People tend to be extreme in everything they do, or be extreme in being moderate. Some people refuse to see more than one side and others refuse to choose a side because they can see it all. Just a thought!

Examples of indulgence that might just be good - Bill Gates (without indulging in his love of computers we'd have no windows and he'd had no cash!), hobbies (hobbies are just addictions with results).

Don't think you could just write "Overindulgence is great!" and get out with it... It is sometimes good to be indulgent. In some extreme cases it could be better to be overindulgent. At least, what others, who do not know the whole situation in detail, would consider overindulgent.
