Do you think that sending a pro-euthanasia essay as a writing sample for an Honors English application to a catholic school will make them reject me for Honors English? I got full marks for it and it is my best writing. It represents my opinion, and I don't know if the English teacher is catholic.

Answer:

There is a high possibility of rejection there.

Step-by-step explanation:

Euthanasia is basically the "humane" version of killing a person or animal, and most types of christianity do not support murder/killing someone else. Catholicism is known to be one of the weirder and more hypocritical sects of christianity, as well. So, even though catholics historically did kill, they probably would not be okay with this. going by what friends and family have said about their time at catholic schools/churches(as well as what happened in history with the catholic church), you definitely are not allowed to have much of an opinion there as you are in other churches. You can take the chance, but I would definitely try to find out the English Teacher's view first.
