In mu opinion, I think that being able to express one's opinion is a good thing to be able to do. I really liked being able to write a paper that allowed me to build an argument to help persuade somebody of something that I felt strongly about. People need the skills to be able to build a persuasive argument and then back it up. This paper really gave me a chance to better fine tune that while I got to write about something that I really like.
Now for a little humor aside, here is a video of something that I think most of you will find amusing. I would venture to say that you are only going to see at BYU.

Enjoy! :)
I get what you're saying. We're always writing about what we're told to write, this was a nice break to choose on our topic and choose our arguments to go with it all. This was a paper that allowed us freedom that fell within guidelines. Therefore, it wasn't an all out mess!
