    In his lectures, “The Power of Myth,” Joseph Campbell states that two of the major functions of myth are the sociological and pedagogical. Myth can uphold social orders, and myth can teach people how to live in any circumstances. These two functions are not necessarily separate; in fact, they can intertwine in such a way that the myth itself can uphold a social order by teaching people how to live with that social order, as Walter Lippmann would say, manufacturing consent for that order just by…

    Darwins theory on evolution is a hard concept for many to grasp. Its also one of the biggest topics of controversy around the world; Rather we should believe in creationism or believe in the science and facts that we have been accumulating for about 200,000 thousand years. I believe Darwin’s idea of evolution was to not fight creationism but to explore and make sense of our universe.

    Hume wrote this dialogue over the course of twenty five years and had it published after his death. He himself was an atheist which was not a typical view at the time, especially in England. That being said, I think he was interested in the theories and possibilities of God and how theists would reason him out. Throughout the entire dialogue, there are arguments from both Cleanthes and Philo where you can see some slight characteristics of Hume. However, I thoroughly see opinions of Hume in…

    Is the teaching of evolution in schools really necessary? Is it needed? If so, what does it benefit the children and teens and college students to be taught this? Honestly, I don’t think it’s necessary or needed. And personally, I think it's the dumbest, reckless, most dangerous religion out there. Why is this?

Then, an argument could be that maybe there is still more to discover as far as when organisms started inhabiting the Earth. Many people who argue against this idea don’t typically argue against the idea of there being a designer, but whether or not the order and complexity of the universe means that it was indeed designed. Basically, that maybe everything didn’t…

    When one hears the word religion they think of their own religious thoughts and what that personally means to them. They normally think of the positives related to that and the good it has done for them. Although when one hears the word science the first thing that comes to mind is the science class they took as students and how they either hated the subject or loved it, but what they don 't think about is how important science is to the world.
