The final blog that will make everybody hate each other! Hahahahaha!

There are many debates taking place in America. However in this topic we only care about the three most divisive. 1) Evolution vs. Creationism (is there a god). 2) Should it be legal to abort fetuses and the moral reasoning behind such an act. 3) Conservatives vs liberals. Who is destroying our country?

Here is an example and does not necessarily reflect my viewpoints. I shall take the stereotypical viewpoint of a "conservative Christian" and I easily could have done this with the "atheist liberal" stereotype as well.

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Not some exploding nothingness! Scientists keep forgetting the Big Bang is a theory! How could someone believe all this life came from a pool of stirring mud! No sir God created each and everyone one of us in his image. That is exactly why abortion should be punished with severe prison time! How can you murder one of God's precious souls, especially with all this talk that life doesn't begin at conception which we know is a bold faced lie. It all comes down to these darn dirty liberals. They've been poising our youth with their lies and hidden socialist agendas for years. If our founding fathers were alive today they would be leading another revolution to take down this regime!

So please hit all three points in your response and have fun!

time travel

Seeing how this could possibly be the last blog we do as a class, I think it is important to remember the memories. With those memories and a past we start to build our future. All's the past an the future is time. This week's blog is all about time. When would you go back in time if you could? I know I would go back to when people started having war because of religion just because it makes no sense to me. It can be your life though too. So once again when would you go back in time if you could?

Summer Fun

Here we are, with only fourteen more days left in school before we graduate. I am sure we are all very excited not only for graduation, but summer. I know I am. So for this blog, talk about what you will be doing this summer. Maybe work, travel, move etc. Be specific, and make it fun! :)

Superpowers

As you all are aware of, we have been reading invisible man for the past month. Although in the book, he is not actually invisible, he feels as though he is. That being said, if you could  ONE superpower, what would you choose?

Warmer Weather

So, I feel like we have beat this Invisible Man thing to death, so I don't really feel like attempting to make conversation about it. Now that the days are getting longer, the snow is melting, and it is no longer freezing at all times of day and night, what are your plans for this spring? I, for one, would like to start roping outside now that arenas are no longer covered in snow, and maybe go shoot some coyotes. Don't hold back and have fun.

Battle Royal!

Alright, so we have been talking a lot about the fight scene in I.M. so I thought it would be ok to talk about some violent themes here. There is a nice quote by Robert A. Heinlein that may cause a bit of a ruckus. It goes like this,  “Violence, naked force, has settled more issues in history than has any other factor.”
Agree? Disagree? GO.

The Importance of History?

As we have studied and are currently studying different types of literature and their impact and importance in history I have often wondered why do we study history? Why it is that history is a core class, and why is it required or held on the same level as the disciplines of math, science, and English? Why is it that we study literature from all different periods of history instead of just focusing on modern works? How does history impact us, or does it? Should history classes be valued at the same level as the subjects of math, science, and English?
