essay's response.

I was absolutely appalled at the picture of Kanye West posing as Jesus Christ. The fact that West thinks he is anywhere in proximity of comparison is appalling. Quite frankly it’s a joke. For a beautifully hand crafted, meticulously painted pot to feel comparable to its maker is the equivalent of that monstrosity of an assessment. The picture was insulting and blasphemous to say the least, and his reflection morbid and conceded. Nothing about Kanye West says saint, he is selfish, arrogant, flashy. Historically none of the traits can be found in saints. He gives far less then he could and represents far from Christ-like standards. I agreed and was impressed by Blingin Saintood. The writer did his or her research and confidently conveyed their point. I liked that the paper was not only based on the picture and the writer’s opinion, but also included writing from other affected sources. The vocabulary was good and syntax was sufficient. There might have been a few too many passive verbs, but a good paper none the less. I was however disappointed with the title. It was weak and tacky, not reflecting the body at all. Beckham Beckons was a far better title. I did exactly that, I felt drawn in. It is interesting that she choose a character whose very name draws enough interest to read the article. The paper was good, but I don’t think the author did enough research. There were several statements regarding beckham’s sainthood that are rather debatable. There were enticing verbs and adjectives that brought the reader farther into the analysis and made them feel almost like they were watching beckham rather then reading about him, or even looking at the photograph of his face. The thinking process throughout the paper was impressive. The author took his or her readers by the hand and walked them through beckhams advertisement.
