**Prompt #2 (November 6): Truth in __Lord of the Flies__**
In our reading of William Golding's __Lord of the Flies__, we looked at issues of fear and evil, the "beast within." What can we learn and apply from Golding's work, either on a personal or societal level? What truths did you find in this novel or in our discussions about it?

**Prompt #1 (October 6): What is the “truth” of mythology?**
The general term “mythology” encompasses the stories that a culture creates to understand the truth of the world they live in and their place within it. From a personal standpoint, it is about understanding who we are and where we fit in our world experience. What is the "truth" of mythology as we have studied it? What truth have you learned from our investigations? What personal truths have been revealed to you?

I thave learned throught the course of studying mythology that the truth in mythology is one that cannot be defined. It is truthful, but at the same time it is all lies. They are stories, but aren't stories just random things made up in peoples mind just to explain something that they themselves don't know how to explain. And if they are stories they are not real. Can real things be truthful? What I'm trying to get is that truth through mythology is a confusing logic thatt simply can't be put into words and be easily understood.For example it all makes sense to me because I wrote it but to a reader it can be random sayings that don't even fit together. So getting back on track: if real things can be truthful then are they really real. Or are they things that we made ourselves think is real, just so we could have an answer. This is what myths are. Things that we made ourselves think is real so we could have an answer. So they are truthful but they are also not at the same time. Did you get it?
