    Being certain about something can sometimes be misleading or misunderstood. You either assure certainty or question doubt.

But as soon as you have doubt and get intimidated by the other team you instantly try your best to win the game, no matter the obstacles and challenges you go through and prove to the other team you’re better.…

    In part 2 of They Say/I Say, authors Gerald Graff and Cathy Birkenstein begin the process of teaching how to present the writer’s counter-argument, the “I say.” The “I say” segment is where you discuss and offer your own argument to what they have said or wrote. The three most common ways of using “I Say” are agreement, disagreement, and a combination of the two. Graff and Birkenstein goes on to explain that when you agree, disagree, or even both, you should not mildly or incompetently do either. Be clear and concise, offer some explanation for your view. The authors present several examples of ways to effectively explain your stance, but it is crucial that you explain why you feel the way you do. Even if you agree with another’s point of view,…

    Some people believe that life depends on either the concepts of certainty and doubt. With certainty comes a sense of confidence. When you are certain about everything in life, you will know with absolute truth your capabilities, responsibilities, and consequences for your actions. However doubt engraves a feeling of the unknown. If you are uncertain about life, then how will you ever be restrained by boundaries? Doubt may be the only certain undeniable truth.…

    Certainty Vs Doubt

    • 629 Words
    • 2 Pages

    Society invariably believes the concept that certainty can allow one to achieve all of one’s desires. But this present idea is utterly ambiguous. One cannot rely on certainty because nothing is truly certain. Everything that we hold to be true hasn’t been proven wrong, but who is to say that it couldn’t be true? There is no power that states if one is completely transfixed and convinced, they will be able to subdue all that believes otherwise. Doubt is, in many ways, an amenity; reality in which certainty, would be disregarded. Certainty is a security blanket that masks the underlying truths of life.…

    • 3 Pages

    Certainty and doubt co-exist. The is no doubt without certainty (vice versa). The growth of the idea may be swayed by evidence (verbal, visible, or experience). Verbal evidence is not always credible and relies on the character of the person speaking; however, the speaker may conceal or twist the truth around to arrive at a logical point of view, therefore any person may believe the persons point. Lawyers, magicians, and politicians use pieces of the truth to direct certainty or doubt about their subjects. Certainty and doubt lies within an athlete’s own mind; it creates a drive that keeps them going. Belief holds certainty and doubt together.…
