Hi Brooke! This is a great response to all three articles and their use of ethos, pathos, and logos. Especially in your third paragraph about reading of the Syria Supper Club. The example with the real life stories from the refugees is a great use of logos. The use of real life examples is a great way to convince the audience. Also, I agree with your statement that the article “convinces the audience that it is important to help others no matter what their religion is.” Overall your responses really displayed the use of ethos, pathos, and logos in the readings.…

Though there are three different accounts of the Lord’s Last Supper in the bible—written by Matthew, Luke, and John—each record share common threads. Specifically speaking, the scriptures all express Jesus’ desire for people to, through the symbols of bread and wine, receive his body and blood in remembrance of him. In other words, through this symbolic and orderly process, all accounts show that Jesus wants his followers to remember the sacrifice he made: die on the cross to pay for mankind’s sins. Ultimately, I found these accounts to show Jesus suggesting a redemptive nature of his death.…
On August 8, 2013, a field of rice, called “Golden Rice”, was completely devastated by a group of angry Filipino protestors. However, this was no ordinary rice. It was genetically modified rice that was designed to alleviate some major problems in the world. One farmer passionately said, “we do not want our people, especially our children, to be used in these experiments.” However, there were several people outraged by this act of vandalism. One of those people, Amy Harmon, decided to bury the notion that Golden Rice is detrimental to human health. She attempted this difficult task in her article, “Golden Rice: Lifesaver?” I will be analyzing how she conveys her message to the readers of the article in this rhetorical analysis essay. I argue…
I think this study was done by immature researchers who does a survey online for this type of research. How did this article even make it into Science Dailey it isn't that good when it comes down to what they used for research.

Having gown up in Afghanistan prior to the Soviets invasion, Nelofer Pazira relays some defining aspects of her past in, “The Pilgrimage”. She describes her prewar vacation and her fond childhood memories to be “very different” from the media’s portrayal. One of her goals include authentically communicate what it was like to grown up in Afghanistan prior to the 1979 invasion of the Soviets. This portrayal was done through her childhood perspective, giving the essay a more simplistic point of view. The use of ethos is seen as, Nelofer is someone who is qualified to speak on the subject matter. In addition she appeals to the audience with pathos, the use of an emotional perspective helps vividly depicts her fondest childhood memories; as well…
When the Israelites were liberated from slavery in Egypt, the celebration of the Passover was created as represented in the Gospel Mark 14:1-26. Jesus and his disciples were Jewish men. He chose the Passover time to reveal to his death because then they would understand the symbolism and how his sacrifice would free their sins like Moses freed the Israelites. The gospels mark 14:1-26 represents how Jesus is observing the important aspect of the Passover feast because in the feast, Jesus blesses some unleavened bread representing his body (the bread had no yeast like Jesus had no sin) and the wine representing his blood which he then asks the men to take it in memory of him. In modern day Christian mass, Jesus is referred to as the Lamb of…
On April 20th, 1999, a school shooting took place in the Columbine High School. Two students, fully armed with a variety of firearms, murdered numerous students. This catastrophe resulted in numerous disputes over the issues with gun control laws in relation to the Second Amendment of the US Bill of Rights, which gave US residents the right to bear arms. Later in 2002, Michael Moore explored the causes of the Columbine shooting and such violence in his documentary Bowling for Columbine. In this documentary, Moore uses logos, pathos, and ethos to convey the message that US social media, along with the freedom to bear guns, plays a major role…
In 1874, Mary Ellen’s case shined a light on Abuse of children and was brought by American Society for the Prevention of cruelty to Animals, which later passed a law to protect children from physical abuse from their parents. During the trial, the judge ordered for Ellen to be brought into the court room and from there she gave her heart-wrenching testimony. This testimony made such an impact in history that the author, physician, and writer Howard Markel revealed her story in the New York Times in 2009. In this composition Markel uses appeals as strategies to reveal and remind the audience of Ellen’s case and form a movement to prevent it and protect victims, which is an effort that continues today. In Markel strategies he mostly uses an emotional appeal which is more effective in this composition because the language used in Ellen’s testimony evokes the senses and brings emotion to the audience and helps them to relate her. Her testimony provides concrete evidence which Markel used to give his composition a logical appeal.…
"For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, "This is my body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of me." In the same way, after supper he took the cup, saying,…

“The Carnivore’s Dilemma”, an essay by Nicolette Hanh Niman, incorporates rhetorical elements, such as logos, ethos, and rhetorical questions, in an attempt to convince the audience that meat itself is not the root of global warming. Written from a rancher’s point of view, the essay relies on studies and logic to prove itself. Niman starts out with a short acknowledgement that the meat industry has a hand in the increasingly noticeable global climate change. She then quickly changes gears, stating that the studies that show the meat industry is a major player in global warming only take the prevailing methods of producing meat into account and spews facts that show the flip side of the food industry.…
