Prayers At The Congress


John Adams wrote a letter to Abigail Adams, telling her that during the break at congress in Philadelphia a delegate mention that they should pray before starting the congress. Many people agree and didn´t agree because of the difference of religion, but they take it in consideration and approve that they should pray by saying a Psalm. The purpose of this letter to John was to communicate to Abigail that she should read and tell to others that Psalm.

"I must confess I never heard a better Prayer or one, so well pronounced. Episcopalian as he is, Dr. Cooper" (John Adams 677). This qoute is an example of the rethorical device appeal to emotion. This rethorical device is important to the letter because it shows the reader how the writter expresses throughly his feelings and it explains the reader that his feelings toward praying is important. "I must beg you to read that Psalm" (John Adam 678). This qoute is an example of the rethorical device of persuasion. We can see that the writter persuades the reader to pray the Psalm, because is great to hear a pray or a bible lecture in the mornings.

Mr. Patrick Henry:


Fellow Citizens of America now is the moment to decide for our future. Now is the time to make our country a better place to live. What high price should our fellow Americans pay for this liberty? Going to fight against a power? If we win great we have liberty but if we don’t we suffer economically, political and human lives and will be under their power. Do we have the capacity to fight? Why making these big and making this aggressive? A better solution is doing it in a calm way. In a political peaceful way. Why having to fight against a high power? Its true let´s have patriotism and fight for what we want, and be loyal to our country, but let’s do it in a nonviolence way. Making this you are not only going to lose economically but you are going to lose human lives. If you want to fight against high power you should have allies, and having allies is being compromise, or it would cost money. Me as American, do not agree to your petition to go to war. Why war? The only thing we want is peace. You Mr. Henry once said: Judging the future but by the past, well do you want us and our children to remember further on that we make destruction and that we lose because we wanted to have freedom we would remember that we gain liberty by making destruction instead of looking a better way to gain liberty. Why going to war and cause destruction because we are going to make destruction and not only that, we are going to lose lives. Is that what you want? It’s that what we deserve? Why don´t we focus on making this country rise instead of thinking in ways that would make us go down. The only thing I want is peace and that our children live in a peace place. Why can´t we have peace? Why suffering? I hope you take this in consideration.

                                                                                                     Sincerely, A fellow American

I would like to spread my plan to the world. My plan it is just to make the world a better world for our future generations. I would try my best to make this plan come true and that way it wouldn´t just be words instead actions. First I will create jobs to people who need jobs. Second, I would do field work so that we appreciate what nature has to offer. Finally I would protect the environment. The people that would I like they follow my plan are the world leaders. Leaders should follow my plan because they want to be part of the changes that would benefit them and turn them into better leaders. They are going to be excluded from making the world a better world. People should not just care on themselves they should care about people who really need help from those who have. Despite the problems we have been living the last few years is our duty to change and make the world be the better for our future generations.
