Reply #20: craziest? I don't know - they were all weird. [View All]

Freshman year I wrote one on how there really was a Santa - the spirit of giving at Christmas. (bleh)

Sophomore year - The Nine months of Gestation (for Biology class).

Junior year - I think I compared Faulkner to Dante (or some other weird combination.)

Senior year - A comparative study of early 20th Century writers to Doestoevsky (Thornton Wilder and some others I don't remember.)

Also my Sr. year - the one that really got me in trouble. The Christian Myth. (I was a devout Southern Baptist - ok - devout is probably not the best word - but I practiced hard!) I was writing about all of the symbolism that Christianity took from early mythology, etc.

The problem was, my English teacher was the Youth Minister at my Church. He took the paper to the Pastor. They called my parents. I had to go in for "spiritual counseling". Man what a ruckus that caused.
