Mythology 10/22/07 There can be a lot of truth in myths. Two major aspects expressed in a myth are the culture of the producer of a the myth and the characteristic of all people. A reader can learn a lot from a myth about the people who created the myth, because the people that developed the myth imprinted their beliefs and their morals into it. This can be see in Greek mythology. The Greeks were more defensive and home protectors, so they related to Athena more. Another aspect of truth in a myth is the archetypal connection with characters in a myth and people. People could be irate and evil to selected others or be pleasant and generous to all life, and mythical beings could and are also. Myths show the archetypes of people in to different gods and goddesses. Myths are stories or explanations influenced by the surroundings of the people that developed it, so of coarse there will be truths in a myth.

Fear 1/27/08 Fear is just a fealing or an emotion. It is brought on by a sense of danger, and for that reason it is a genetic advantage that we fear. When we fear we are more cautious and attentive to the posible threat around us, but also we can become more agressive as if we were going to be attacked. In the "Lord of the Flies" the boys fear the "beasty", so much that it changes the way they were living on the island. Most of the boys believe their fear of the "beasty" so much even though it was of no threat. So, fear is just a fealing that makes us react to what it is we fear even if it doesn't exist.

Dreams Dreams are a tool developed to impel a specis to live to their fullest potential. Dream is just the word that is used to decribe somthing llike that. what you show find is the thing that is consitant with every thing people call dreams. What is the similarity between someones dream to become wealthy and someones actual dream while sleeping. They both influence you peferably a good way. Even a nightmare has it's purpose. Even if it's rediculous, it helps you to be aware. And that has a big advantage, thus alowing a specis to live better. Sorry about my spelling.

Truth My question: Why do people believe in a soul? Some questions I developed off of that are: How would people define a soul or what is a soul to people? What has a soul? Is the soul a mortal or immortal thing? Is it something that is physically part of your body or something apart from physical body? Whay are peoples opinions so defferent from eachothers?

I've found that there are so many different opinions on this topic. It's hard to find a good defintion of the soul. One definition is “The animating and vital principle in humans, credited with the faculties of thought, action, and emotion and often conceived as an immaterial entity.” I still need to do more research but so far i've only been reseaching other peoples opinions.

I have no idea how to present this.

You could help just by answering the questions that I developed; it always helps to have more opinions or suggestions if you have any. Any any presentation suggestions would help a lot as well.
