Greek mythology is full of stories of youthful foolishness. For example

In Greek mythology Icarus flew too close to the sun, despite warnings from his father Daedalus, and his wings made of wax and feathers melted, and he was killed when he crashed to the ground.

Phaethon set out early one morning to drive the Sun's chariot on its daily journey. As his father feared, Phaethon lost control of the chariot when the scorpion scared the horses. Plunging down, the Sun's searing heat set Mother Earth on fire. She cried out to the gods for help. The king of the gods fired a thunderbolt and killed Phaethon to save Earth. Burning, he fell into the river Eridanus that extinguished the flames.

Demeter told her daughter Persephone to stay in one area until she returned and Persephone went outside of the boundary, with the result of Hades taking her to his underground realm.

There are things that control your life, and you seem youthful because you appear unaware of what they are. The moral of the Greek stories, is that trouble follows such youthful folly. When we do not know our limits and stay within safe boundaries, we get into trouble.

Your signiture indicates a serious misunderstanding of science. Science is to democracy what the bible is to autocracy. Through science we come to know the controlling factors and gain the ability to control for the best and avoid the worst. Conscience- is a knowing that which comes out of a science of life. Con is to study, and science is knowledge of life.

When we become aware of the forces that control our lives, we become authorities, ready to participate in self government.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
