Written Analysis 4 - Formulas

Formulas
Formulas are another way to analyze people’s opinions and interpretations of sea monsters. To understand further, we have to realize there are two different types of formula. The first type is convention and the second type is invention. Convention formulas are ones that stay consistent throughout the era. This means you can put two different examples and the base of these examples should be the same. Invention is the opposite of convention. The elements change and become something new.
The convention formula for sea monsters is that there is no scientific evidence to support their existence. This has been the same way for several, even hundreds, of years since the ‘first spotting’ of a sea creature like the Loch Ness Monster. Even if you believe sea monsters do exist, we all can agree on one thing that was mentioned above, there is no scientific evidence to support the claim. However, with many new discoveries happening on a daily basis, this could change in the future.
The opinions of many people regarding sea monsters are what would be classified as invention. Citizens believe they have spotted different sea monsters and even believe they have taken pictures of them. There are new claims happening all over the world of different sea monsters that have never been discovered. This is part of the invention of people’s opinions and interpretations of sea monsters. However, there are other citizens that believe sea monsters do not exist do to the simple fact that there is no scientific evidence to support the claims.
No matter if the formula is considered a convention or invention; many people will continue to think what they believe is correct. Everyone has the right to their own opinions and interpretations of sea monsters and any other topic they desire. It is up to you if you confirm to what the pop culture believes is true or not.
