Two months after you complete this course you find yourself in a dispute with a friend, colleague, acquaintance, etc. who claims that mythology is nothing more than a pack of lies, falsehoods and imaginative stories that don't serve any real purpose. Given your participation in this course, what type of counter-argument would you offer?

Your assignment is to write a persuasive essay that illustrates mythology as a vibrant, important and entirely useful collection of stories that continues to assert a positive influence on the world today. Make sure that your language is passionate and make sure that you use information from the course material that we studied this term. Support your argument with AT LEAST one major content example from each of the readings that you completed this term. You can include information from the course videos as well.

Please make sure that your content is clear, plausible and strongly defends the importance of mythology. Do your best to include the vocabulary and terms that have played an important role in this course. I want you answer, not a plagiarized answer.
