Student Sample #4

I loved reading this student's essay. They had proper grammar, their syntax and diction was on point. The writer also used a good combination of personal views with facts. I really like how they quote a lot of famous people who are known for their contributions to science. I could play devil's advocate by pointing out that calling these people "authority figures" is a touchy subject because many modern people disagree with their theories and are working to form their own new ones based off new knowledge. I really like how the write addresses the fact that we will always have differing opinions and viewpoints on subjects like science and religion. It does seem like the write favors science more than Christians and attacks them a bit at the end, destroying her neutral viewpoint that was kept through the entire paper. The writer is very effective at making their point that opinions should be respected and supports it thoroughly in every paragraph.
