Old Mythos: A Short Story

In old times, humankind has looked to utilize stories to clarify the world in which it lives. Similarly, as old man utilized stories of divine beings and creatures to clarify the world; superior person utilizes stories of exceptional legends and colossal scoundrels to do likewise (Stuller). Comic books are modern mythology, in that they are superior man 's strategy for clarifying their general surroundings through the fantastical. The characters frequently handle such major, philosophical, (Ahrens, Jörn, and Meeting) social and story ideas as the nature of sound and malevolence, man 's inward battle, the wannabe, the women 's activist, and the rescuer.

Every culture, religion, and beliefs have their own ideology on how the earth was created and the story of how the first person was formed. Many beliefs come from science and religion however there is also myths that have been passed down from generation to generation. So, who is right? How did the earth form? I believe that there is no right answer and that every myth gives a person something to believe in. If you take an in depth look at these myths, you will become mesmerized at some of the stories. Today we are going to dive into two myths from two different cultures.

When examining various cultural myths, one archetype keeps repeating—the image of the quest. This archetype functions with various different mythologies as a method of learning about the world, both its external features and what is inside the self. The quest comes from ancient origins and is found in Classical Western culture, but has been fine tuned through the generations. In its most modern interpretations, there are continuing elements of the age old myth, where extenuating circumstances or hubris, place the hero in turmoil and needing to find an answer. Having additional sexual charges, it is clear that through the quest, adulthood is not only reached but embraced. This answer represents a completeness of being,

To be born from virgin makes the child blessed because the mother is then untouched and pure. Owen Meany

Theseus: You will be executed or never see another man again. Think carefully about what you want, beautiful Hermia. Think about how young you are and your feelings. If you do not like your father’s choice, then decide if you could stand to be a nun. Forever be living in a convent saying hymns to the cold fruitless moon. People that can hold back their passions and stay virgins forever are holy. A married woman is

While sex is an act of love and trust, a lot of people throw it around as though it were a football. Many people regret their first sexual encounter because of who they did it with or because they weren’t ready, but they continue to perform the act because they feel that since they already lost their innocence, there is no use in staying abstinent. However, just because one has had sex does not mean they have lost their innocence. Sex is an act of growing and learning, not of losing self-respect and innocence. Sex should be seen as a natural act of mankind that one should not be ashamed of; however, it really depends on who the person is and how they feel about themselves. Through the stories of The Epic of Gilgamesh, “Degradation in Erotic Life”, and “Sex”, the reader can see that the act of sexual intercourse will not cause a loss of innocence as long as one is confident in themselves.

Even then that’s only maybe, as most relationships waited until marriage either for religious or personal reasons to then have sex thus increasing the meaning even more than before.

I told those evil religious people that everyone will be like an angel, which equates to a spirit in heaven or hell forever. By the Way, flesh and bones will not inherit My Kingdom: Those in heaven have neither penises made of flesh, nor vaginas made of flesh, nor any kind of  bodies made of flesh, yet they have illusory spiritual bodies in which they dwell. The purposes of penises are so that men may urinate and ejaculate, and so on, of course, and the vaginas, which women have, likewise are useful. It is obvious to Me and several others that I bypassed shooting out from a penis. Notwithstanding, everyone else experienced exiting a man while they were in sperm form. You may wonder why I did not shoot into Mary by natural, standard means. It was a miracle is not the only factor. Mortal sin entered the earth because of Adam's and Eve's sins, and I have always been aware that all who got the chance would follow suit. The reasons for the way I came to the earth are so that I stand out from the crowd and a few other things. Technically, I could have gone through Joseph in a procedural sense. My version was screwing that seeing as how that was not the plan. Why not, you could ask? You ought to

Isn’t making love is generally thought of as a magical thing shared between two people? Those two people are sharing a bond in which to express their affection towards each other. When making love, one doesn’t think of the chances harming themselves, however, in that enchanting exchange of adoration, there can be a horrific consequence if one fails to be cautious. It can result in sexually transmitted diseases. These diseases can kill any person who is sexually active. One needs to know that there is a possibility of receiving an STD. There are chances in which they can be cured but for some, it isn’t an option. An alternative may be to slow it down, but it will remain inside of you gradually weakening the immune system. It is all caused

There once was a god named Perculus, he was one of the three lost gods that were destroyed by Zeus. He was the god of education; he was responsible for teaching all the citizens of Greece the basic ways of living. Once Zeus got into power he was jealous that someone other than himself was teaching the citizens so he sent him to Hades, along with two other gods for other personal reasons, Diminutive the original god of Truth and, Gargantuan the god of punishment.

Hindu sacred stories do not contradict Hindu laws, but heroes do. Ancient Hindu laws declare aynoi sex impure and punishable. The sacred stories actually support the idea. In the case of Kamasutra, he was born bondless, and the queens wanted to throw him. It reflects the attitude of mainstream to non-vaginal sex. On the other hand, heroes are the exceptions who can break the rules. The birth of Kamasutra is a consequence of the sexual intercourse between two women. Coincidentally, Jesus’s mother Maria is a virgin. Both them challenge convention but be accepted by commons because of divine decree.

This statement implies that adolescents should not have a sexual relationship. This is the case because in the church's eyes, teenagers are not mature enough to make a life long commitment to another being. The church wants to prevent children being born outside of marriage, resulting in sexual activity being used to seal a marriage or relationship, showing a life long promise. If people make the mistake of having sex outside marriage, the

Not all mythology comes from ancient cultures. People all around the world continue to create new myths and rework existing ones. Modern technology such as movies, publishing, telecommunications, and the internet allow folktales, rumors, and myths to travel faster around the world. A feature of some modern legends is that they originated as artistic creations. Modern legends offer images of the best and worspect aspects of mankind. Modern myths suggest that good behavior can be rewarded while greedy and foolish behavior will be punished. While modern mythology is different from ancient mythology they are similar in that monstrous and scary partly human creatures still fascinate people today. Vampires and Werewolves are examples of modern mythologies most fascinating monsters. Modern mythology spawns from life’s wonder, excitement, mystery, and fear.

Premarital sex goes against God's law so our relationship with God is destroyed. Penance can heal our relationship with God, but the emotional ties that go along with premarital sex can hurt a person for life. Many couples that have premarital sex often do not stay together in marriage. Many people have strong emotional hardships that they go through after having premarital sex. Premarital sex doesn't just lead to sin; it leads to a separation of God and your family and friends.

When people think of mythology they usually get an idea of gods’ monsters and magic. However people don’t realize how mythology is so connected to the existence of humanity and how we will grow and fall as a species. It’s not the easiest concept for us as a species to wrap our heads around but these stories in mythology almost tells us how our future might end up. David Leeming has a definition for mythology that states, humans are always on a quest for fulfillment in the face of entropy. Entropy is the idea that we are always moving toward chaos and disorder. Based on what I’ve seen and read in mythology it almost seems like these stories and ideas but me more relevant than we actually believe.
