Are we there yet!

The opinion piece that I decided to pick was from the Fox News website. It is an opinion piece written By: Bruce Feiler it is called Where have all the Christians gone. It took me a very long time to find this article. Finding this article proved to be most agonizing for me. Most the articles that I read before this one struck very little interest and they had very little controversy. They mainly stated events and not a strong opinion. It was necessary for me to find an article that I strongly disagreed with or it would have been less interesting for me to write my paper on it. I’m not a negative person, it’s just seems to be easier to write agents someone’s opinion, not for it. So, I decided to do it on this article because of my strong opinion on religion and I figured that I’m probably going to be the only one in the class to write something agent religion. The article grabbed my attention because of the big picture of a cross on it. Knowing that Fox News is a conservative news station (that I agree with most things on, but not all) it was probably going to have a pro religious opinion. It was a good target for my non religious views. The rhetorical strategies they used did not work with me, because of my disagreement with what the article was talking about. So, through my agonizing pain I dealt with finding this article hopefully I found what I need to finish this assignment.
