  5. myths are fictional stories. sometimes a myth takes hold in a society and founds their religious beliefs. myths to me are a misleading push from the truth to benefit the myth-giver, and this attitude has founded society since the begining.

  6. Myth a a very cool word. It is like a legend. I took a mythology class once and it kinda sucked cuz the old woman teacher stood at the podium in front of a large audience and mumbled about odysey for like 2 hours every day for a week. oy vey.

  8. all the beauty and indescribable things in the world can be created and altered in the beauty of a myth. true, they are untruths, but they are also wonderfully indicative of the time and place of their creation.

  9. studying is not a myth. Unless you’re in my geology class, though. then it is most definitely a myth. I’m going to go ace my test and then we’ll see, won’t we? Studying is a myth.

  11. Myth is fake, not true. a story, something that was created a long time ago. A rumor that has spread through the masses, generation to generation. A fairytale, a bedtime story, an adventure, a fictional story about a great person

  13. The book was dusty and torn in more than a few places, pages yellow, thin and greasy from years of handling. With a small smile he closed it, ink-stained hands running over the smooth leather cover carefully.

  15. Untruth. Legend. The subject of my youth. The Greeks, with Perseus, Icarus who flew too close to the sun, Jason and the Argonauts. Watching it every Easter.

  16. Dreams, visions, fantasy, taken away by science’s empirical data. The Lockness Monster isn’t real, the Lockness isn’t deep enough. The Norse gods aren’t really there, they were just a figment of human imagination. Damn science, you ruin the fun.

  17. “your heart is a myth,” she said, her hand swimmingly lazily through the air in front of her heavily dilated eyes. “it’s not there. just because you feel it moving around doesn’t mean it exists.” her eyes swung over and connected with mine. they were surprisingly lucid. “just because you can feel it doesn’t make it real.”

  21. myths to me are fantastical stories that embody the cultural and spiritual histories of certain peoples. Famous myths that come to mind include stories from Greek mythology, such as Hercules or Jason and the Argonauts.

  22. something that is often attributed to the early stories of the Bible. yet if your really understand early OT/jewish thought, these are not myths but rather stories told in the language of the time and the culture of the people of the OT. Very interesting. numerology is well done too.

    Mark Shaw
  23. Jesus was a myth. As were his predecessors. The only absolute truth is that nothing is absolutely true. We all live, and our lives become our own little myths. But what becomes of our myths when we die?

  27. something that isn’t true it’s a story that is probably from the past that has been passed on for generations usually with made up characters and “mythical” creatures. It has to contain a quest and a goal and a hero in order to be extremely interesting when I think of myths I think of

    Haha

  31. What constitutes a myth? Is it our beliefs, our superstitions, or our total outlook on life? Considering that all life is constituted of our perceptions, could not our reality itself be a myth?

  37. It’s a myth that we are what we eat – it’s a myth that women have intuitions – but it isn’t a myth that an apple a day keeps the doctor away. I love myths – I love to hear new myths and wonder about those myths. Sometimes myths are good and make you feel good – but sometimes they confuse you.

  38. urban myths are told during campires under the stars. there once was a racoon who li in the forest and every night he would howl like a wolf. Nowadays every person who camps outside of the forest hears cries of the poor racoon who died of sorrow because he choked on marshmallows.

  40. Myths often occur in society. They are not something to be afraid of however. A myth is typically a figment of someone’s imagination that is loosly based off of the truth. I really like some kinds of myths, especially greek myths.
