It is human nature to question all that pertains to life and our surroundings. We speculate and attempt to answer anything that extends beyond our grasp.

Human Nature and its View on Religion
This essay was pretty well written, but I am not sure on how useful it would be to someone in school.

But for some college courses this would be a great essay for reference and insight
