what's a myth?
what do you think it is ?
When you think of myth, you may think of stories about heroes who are sons of gods (making them demigods) with either incredible strength or a god on hand to help the demigods in amazing adventures against the evils of the world.
Are they all real?
Myth serves as explanation accepted by the people who share the myth. Very basic aspects of the world around us that myth explains are
- Day and night
- Seasons,
- Mysteries of life
- Death, and
- Creation (of everything).
- Whether we call it myth, science, fiction, or the Bible, explanations for the origin of man and the universe have always been sought after and popular.
Did the Greeks Believe in Their Gods/Myths?
Although there was variety among the Greeks, as there is among modern people, belief in the gods and goddesses, if not the individual stories about them was important for the community: Important enough that Socrates' brand of atheism led to his execution.
whats the difference between myth and science?
how do we know anything?
Questions closely related to the nature of myth are the existential "what is truth?" and "how do we know anything?"
