Service Learning Reflection

On thursday, for service learning I researched the types of pollutions that are silent killers. There are dozens of house-hold chemical that can be harmful to humans. There even more that are not in the house, but in the environment.  My role in the  Pollution group is to work on the computer, I basically copy and keep track of where the group is. I keep details about the types of pollutions the group comes up with. This week I am going to bring some new things I thought of into the group.

N.H.D Reflection




N.H.D was a very stressful time during this school year. I've never experience anything like it, you have deadlines, you must have primary sources for your paper, and you gotta create a bibliography then revise all of it. My project for N.H.D was the United States Marine Corps, I wrote a 2000 word paper on them. My thesis was the Confederate Marine Corps made by the Confederate States of America , during the Civil War. The Confederate Marines were soldiers that fought in the Civil War (1861-1865), they were modeled after the U.S Marine Corps. Marines are trained to fight on board Naval vessels, in amphibious assaults, and since the development of the aircraft, to fight in the air also.   During this project I learned to managing my time and to controlling my stress level. It was very stressful to research a project that partially no one wants or even thinks about researching. I am proud that I was able to write a 2000 word paper. I didn't think I could've done my paper without help from my teachers. I don't know what my grade is, but I hope I get A.

Is The Bible Real?

The bible, is it real, has the thought ever crossed your mind. Us children have all been taught that you should not question the bible. This a very controversial topic, is the bible true or is a another book? I think the bible isn't true, I think it is just another book. I have 3 reasons, one is that science can tell us more about the world than the bible. Two, the bible was written a long time ago and does not apply now. Back then if you did something the people could understand, it was branded as either witchcraft or you were so type of god-being. The three rd reason is that something things or events in the bible contradicts itself. For all these reasons, the bible can't be true.

The first reason is that science has more information than the bible. The bible said how the world was created, but how the world created in the bible doesn't make sense. It says how man was created, that god made him from clay and dirt. Science has proved that humans have evolved from lesser forms of life. Bones dating back millions of year ago.

The second is the bible was made in a time when people didn't know alot about the world. They didn't even have the equipment to study either. Some people thought the earth was flat and that there were mythical creatures around. Now, in the present we have more intelligent and we know how the really works.

My final reason for why the bible is not true is that some events in the bible contradict it. The story of how Jesus was born, the detail in that story seem a little funny. God impregnated Mary, but she was married. Is god above even his own laws. I don't think god give her a baby, she possibly cheated on Joseph and didn't want to tell him. Why you ask would she want anyone to know. Well, because back than you were stoned if convicted of cheating. She was to afraid of being killed so she make everyone believe Jesus was a miracle baby.

In conclusion, I have given my main reasons I think the bible is just another book. This may not be undeniable evidence but its a start. The first reason, science has a alot more information about the world. The Second, the bible was made by people who know almost nothing of how the world worked. The Third, events and stories have things that happen that contradict themselves and all that the bible stands for. I've done my part now you decide for yourself. When your reading the bible next time, think about the events and my essay I've wrote. Think about it, what if in a thousand year some one finds a book about a fictional character. This person doesn't know it, but the character is very convincing. I've realized that its all about a person's beliefs......what do you believe in?

I choose my Philosophy of Government my metacogntive piece. This the first essay I totally love. This is the first that I've never thought of changing. Its basically about whether I think government is necessary, which you will read about. The first line(my hook) will draw you in and make you wanna read it. I enjoy reading this essay over and over again and you will to.
