CAN SOMEONE RUN THIS THROUGH GRAMMARLY PLEASE...How is Northrop Frye's claim related to the topics you will be studying this week: critical reading, viewing, and writing? "Free speech cannot exist without the ability to use language, and such skills do not come by naturally: They must be learned and practiced." Humans are gifted with the ability to think, which led to the development of language. Critical thinking and the ability to make sound decisions have become increasingly important with the advancement of the knowledge age. The range of articulate human imagination stretches from the height of imaginative heaven to the depth of imaginative hell, as shown by "Literature as a whole is not an aggregate of exhibits with red and blue ribbons attached to them, like a catshow." "Nobody is capable of free speech unless he knows how to use language, and such knowledge is not a gift: it takes practice and effort. Why is it important for followers of Christ to think, read, and write critically? Include at least one example to support your argument. Critical thinking has become something of a hot topic in reason years, even within the context of conservative Christianity. Critical thinking has become something of a hot topic in reason years, even within the context of conservative Christianity. Critical thinking has been described as “reasonable reflective thinking focused on deciding what to believe or do.] It has also been described as “thinking about thinking.

Unfortunately, ‘critical thinking has sometimes gotten a bad name, especially in very conservative Protestant circles because it is associated with people negatively assessing or even criticizing the Bible. This is unfortunate on various grounds
