Topic: What's the most fun you've ever had writing? Who was it for? What was it you were writing? Why did you enjoy the assignment so much - or hate it least, if that's the case?
The most fun I have ever had writing was in my junior year of high school for Mrs. Piscopo. Every month we would have debates in class. We would either choose which side we preferred or were randomly selected. I usually let her randomly place me then, one day the big debate came. The topic was Same Sex Marriages. Now, not only am I as "Right-Winged" as they come but, I am also Catholic. Need I say which side I chose. Once we chose our sides, we were required to research the topic and write our points of argument to be presented and used during the debates. Now you ask why I enjoyed this topic so much as apposed to say a Pro-Life, Pro-Choice debate? Well, It was simply due to the fact I knew the topic very well and I enjoyed ripping the other side a "new one". I also enjoyed reading different points of views in regards to same sex marriages. It was interesting to see how controversial the topic really is and how upset people are. What I really enjoyed researching and writing about was the fact that people who cannot procreate want to be eligible for benefits that good old fashion families use. I'm sorry I'm not paying for that. You want to be gay that's fine, what you do behind closed doors is your business. But, I'd rather my tax dollars go toward the stay at home mom like my mom that married to eventually procreate and bore two children. Even at that there's no guarantee that heterosexual marriages will produce children. So lets call for more unessicary depletion! Now if you want to adopt, good for you. But, there is no guarantee to that you will. I'm sorry but I believe that marriage is for pro-creators. Perhaps the Liberals can make a new program that allots certain benefits to gay couples with adopted children which I'm sure they already have. Let me just stop here before I go off the wall. Now you see why I enjoyed this assignment so much. Just to make clear so that no one thinks I hate gay people. I do not hate anyone for that matter. Okay maybe this one girl in high school. But, I have many gay and bisexual friends out in Landsdale PA and even right here in Manahawkin. I have even debated with my gay friends that agree and disagree with me. I do not at all simply dislike anyone for their sexual preferences. Don't believe me, I will give you one of their numbers. In addition to that, I have my own preferences that many would disagree with and I don't like it when people discriminate and disassociate me so why would I do that to someone else. But that's another blog. I just have a very strong point of view towards marriage. I say good day.
