convince others to have this view while also making money off of the profits is a contradiction in itself. If nothing matters, why would the singer be doing his best to convince people? Why would he think that it matters whether people have the same view as him or not?

While The 5th Wave is written in multiple points-of-view, 16 year old Cassie, the teen narrator of the largest portions of the novel, is the character whose voice will likely receive the most attention. She's one of the few who's managed to stay alive during the invasion, but not…

Applying Worldviews The movie the House of Fog and Sand we watched in class dealt with the four worldviews around the world: Secular, Theo centric, Anthropocentric, and Cosmo centric.
