Analysis of Letter to the Editor
I decided to introduce my main idea in the first sentence, to try and possibly gets my point straight through, telling the editor that it was a letter concerning that very highly argued topic. I believe that everyone, in the world , every human being able to have some sort of spiritual life, decide on their own who they want to appraise and believe in. If it is a certain religion, or just having faith is some sort of way. Just because a person isn’t a hundred percent devoted to the religion does not make them atheist.
When the topic of Latinas changing to Islam arises, I believe that not just because of ethnicity or culture people are “destined” to be a certain religion. (Example: Middle Eastern: Muslim, Hispanic’s: catholic or Asian: Buddhist.) I’m not a big fan of stereotyping, so I don’t base anything on ethnicity or culture. Everybody is different. Some people might feel that well, “she’s Latina, she has to be catholic”, and that’s just not the point, the point is to give every one the rights that are entitled to us. Maybe the citizens in other countries that don’t allow freedom of religion, would like to choose their path of religion, we as Americans have to be thankful that we do have those rights.
I believe that every human being has the right to choose their own religion. Spirituality has to be present in everyone, at least a tiny bit anyways. I believe that having some what of a spiritual life , i.e., believing in god or Buddha , helps each human being to deal with stress and everyday tasks, such as washing the car or doing laundry,( having energy to do things.)
I chose the words of “old fashioned” because there are some people still out there in the world who haven’t accepted diversity. I meant to persuade that the existence of that type of personalities is still present in America and all over the world. From my personal point of view, in each country, nation, there is that one that will not accept anything else but what they think is “the right thing to do”, for example: discrimination based on skin color. I myself have been discriminate against because of my “brown” skin, and may I say that I felt that the person who insulted me needed help, badly in learning the cultures from today. Now, nothing is based on skin color, or your ethnicity, but on mental views, actions and communication.
From a personal point of view, I have recently joined a religion and I feel that I have more strength now than I ever did before to deal with everyday problems such as my hectic schedule with school, homework, church, dance and work , problems with my car and of course those “relationship” problems.

I related to this certain religious topic by putting my own thought of being able to choose my own path in religion. Since I am expected to choose the catholic religion, I have had some problems in the past whether or not to believe in “god”. Now that I have made my decision on actually practicing my catholic faith, I have found a higher level of satisfaction with my life and I am grateful that I had the opportunity to choose.
