I am taking Phil of Religion. I love the class & find much to take in. For our first exam we have to write two essays. The first: Answer the question: "is the holy loved by the gods because it is holy, or is it holy because it is loved?" The second I haven't decided yet as we get to choose from 3 diff. subjects. I am pretty good at writing and doing essays, but when it comes to one in philosophy, I find myself caught up in that I have so much to say and yet nothin to say. I stare at the blank page endlessly. I have tried the outlining, the thought bubbles, the just start writing and edit later, etc, etc. but still end up with a blank page.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can answer this in an essay consisting of at least 5 pages? I think my main problem is: how do I begin? What do I start the essay with? The question itself? So much is swirling and twirling in me brain :)
