Mythology Questions
We have been studying mythology in our Language Arts Class. Today a student asked another teacher a question. She sent him to me. The question was, "What would happen if there were no myths in the world. Would things be the way they are now?"
I gave him my answer. Our cultures, religions and many other things are built upon myths. Myths make us question our beliefs in many ways.
Here is a second question: "What would you say is your favorite myth and where does it come from?" (Greece, Persia, etc.)
So weigh in on this. How would you answer these questions? I told him I would put out there and give him an answer next week. Please leave a a comment.
