     This essay's purpose will be to show that while Atheism and Christianity are generally considered complete opposites, they aren't actually that different from each other. If I were to cover all the different divisions of both of these beliefs, I would need more than 1500 words. So I will just be comparing the average Protestant Christian to an average Atheist, someone defined by the Merriam-Webster Dictionary as "a disbelief in the existence of deity". I chose this topic because Christianity is a huge part of who I am as a person, and I personally think that these two beliefs are closer to each other than most people realize.

    This is a really interesting choice for an essay! I wouldn't think that they have that much in common, but perhaps they do. Unfortunately, your Venn diagram isn't visible on my computer. I can see that you posted it because there is a large white box, but there is nothing inside of it.

      weird... I'm not sure how to fix it but I uploaded it the same way I showed you how to. Did you have bad connection?

    I agree with Eve! It is always smart to write about something that is important to you because you can put in much more feelings and detail in the writing. unfortunately I am not able to see your Venn diagram.

    Emma,
    I posted a link to my google docs instead of trying to upload the picture... Does it work?

      It's asking for permission to view the Venn Diagram. If you use a Windows operating system, you can screen shot the diagram, paste it into paint, crop it, then save it as a JPEG, where you're able to upload the picture via an image here.

    Interesting topic, too. It will be interesting to read what you've discovered about both views.
