"Dear Dental School Admissions Committee: Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to consider my application with your institution; it is very much appreciated. Often, I am asked why precisely I chose dental school when there were so many other career options available to me. While there are a number of reasons, the most important one was that I wish to help others as others have helped me. In particular, one of my chief goals as a dentist is to use my expertise to assist men, women, and children who live in areas where oral care professionals are relatively scarce; at the same time, I hope to..."

Abstract
This essay is in the form of a letter written to a dear friend after receiving an email that wanted her to fill out a questionnaire on "getting to know you". The paper delves deeper into the email sending trend of "forward this email to umpteen of your closest friends for good luck", explaining how the same rules apply today as in the days of hand written "chain letters". It goes on to explain how innocent beginnings of getting to know someone closely can lead to issues of low self-esteem by allowing someone to know your weak points.

''Hence, that explains why my email is stuffed each morning, no not just by Lynn but, I have other friends and a few family members who practice this old wives-tale. Do I believe in all that superstitious rigmarole? Not the kind that is in letter form but, I do have a quirky {ok crazy} thing that my dear Aunt Monkey {no that's not her name but it is her nick-name we kids gave her growing up, a story for another time.} practiced as well, watching her whisper to her friends or family while sitting around the dining table playing canasta. I suppose she thought if it was whispered to someone than maybe God wouldn't hear her and life could go on as usual. Truth is the man upstairs always hears every word spoken, even the ones we dare not udder. Well, He wasn't the only one who was paying attention to the sweet gray hair old lady with spider veins that ran down her legs {looked like a road map to my 10 year old eyes} for some of her ways took root in me, her great niece."

Abstract
This essay is in the form of a letter from the Apostle Matthew to Paul. The letter cogently outlines Matthew's points of disagreement with Paul on issues of doctrine, practice and adherence to the laws according to the Old Testament.

From the Paper
"Dear Paul,
"I have come upon your letter written to the people of Galatia and I am appalled that you take the laws of the Torah so lightly. You claim that you received a revelation from Jesus Christ and are; therefore, an apostle of Jesus. How then could you have misunderstood the reason for his existence here on earth? You have stated, "A man is not justified by observing the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ" and that "by observing the law no one will be justified." You are preaching this to Gentile Christians, telling them they are not required to obey the Law of Moses. You do this because you believe Jesus came to abolish the Jewish laws, while the opposite is true."

From the Paper

Abstract
In this analysis of Nathaniel Hawthorne's novel "The Scarlett Letter," the concept of sin and puritanical society is examined. The reviewer focuses on the protagonist, Hester Prynne, and her development and eventual transcendence of her punishment for adultery. The paper also examines the role of Hester's daughter, Pearl, linking her symbolically with the concept of original sin. The paper concludes by contrasting Hester's strength with Reverend Dimmesdale's downfall.

From the Paper
"Nathaniel Hawthorne's novel The Scarlet Letter addresses the issue of sin, responsibility, and even salvation in the Puritan society of North America. Sentenced to wear her sin of adultery in the form of the letter 'A' on the outside of her dress, Hester Prynne is forced to live with the ignominy of having borne a child out of wedlock. Hawthorne initially uses the scarlet letter as a symbol of Hester's sin, but the meaning of the letter evolves throughout the novel as Hester is eventually empowered and her secret lover is enfeebled by the sin they had both committed. The evolution of the letter shows the power of accepting punishment and persevering over the enervating capacity of trying to hide and escape sin."

Abstract
This paper looks at Nathaniel Hawthorne's "The Scarlet Letter." The author looks at the transformations that the characters undergo which affects the outcome of their lives. The transformation is a direct result of sin, guilt, and hatred and their influence on the human spirit. Sin and guilt can greatly affect the human heart and are often a catalyst for change within a human being.

From the Paper
"The sin of Hester and Dimmesdale has the greatest effect on Roger Chillingworth. Originally, Chillingworth was a decent and much better as a person. He is angered by the actions of his wife and wants revenge more than anything else. "Not thy soul, he answered, with another smile. No, not thine" (74). Chillingworth plans from the start to ruin the soul of the Reverend. He lets his anger turn itself into evil and that evil embeds itself in his heart. Chillingworth begins to explore the soul of Dimmesdale in an attempt to draw out a confession. "He now dug into the poor clergyman's heart like a miner searching for gold; or, rather like a sexton delving into a grave, possibly in quest of a jewel that had been buried on the dead man's bosom" (125). Chillingworth has let his evil feelings take over his mind and actions. He wants nothing more than to torment the priest. He turns into a "chilling" person as his name implies and comes to symbolize the devil himself. Eventually, his hatred takes its toll on Chillingworth himself. "All his strength and energy" all his vital and intellectual force "seemed at once to desert him; insomuch that he positively withered up" (254). "
