You are what you read.

Dear freaks,

Form my topic I chose You are what you read. I chose this topic, because I kind of disagree with it.

Yes, it’s true, that you receive knowledge from reading, and that designs your view of the world. For example if you read a book about UFOs, with different facts and examples, then you will probably start to believe in it too. However, if you read a book that says UFOs aren’t real and explains what people have been thinking to be UFOs, you have no choice but to agree with the statements. So yes, i think that, you are what you read, but you read what you choose to, which means that you are what you choose to be.

On the other hand I think that the topic should be You read what you are, because you choose what you want to read. Let’s take the same UFO example. If you are a realist, then you’d choose a book that says that they aren’t real, but if you’re someone who likes fiction then you’ll probably choose a book that says they are real.

And so it seems that you decide what you want to believe and be, based on what kind of a person are you. I believe, that I am someone, who likes to read both sides of a story and then decide which one seems more plausible.

All in all I have to say, that all about reading depends on what kind of a person you are. So no-one can tell you what you have to read or believe.

Thank you for reading.
