Answer and Explanation:

How do you feel about that statistic?

That statistic makes me feel deceived, misled. Such a high number means half of the information conveyed to us is not completely trustworthy. It is what PR companies want us to think, not real information which we can use to think for ourselves. It is quite a sad reality, and it shows we still have a long way to go before we can think of ourselves as truly free. Knowledge is the rock upon which we can build our freedom. Without it, we are easily controlled and kept chained by those in power.

Do you think most people realize this?

I do not think people realize this. If more people knew about this, there would likely be a public outcry for change and better ways to filter what truly is news and what is not. That is obviously a difficult endeavor. But, just as so many others throughout history, it is worth fighting for.

<u>Answer</u>:

The theme that is most typical of a creation story is - Humans are punished for their mistakes. Option C is the right answer here.

<u>Explanation</u>:

A creation story is more of a traditional, religious or cultural myth that gives an idea about how people began their lives in this world or how did the world begin in the first place. They started as oral traditions carried on from one generation to another and is found in every culture.

All the creation stories or myths have a common theme. The tug of war between good and bad and at the end humans who commit bad things are punished for their wrongdoings. The oral transmissions were a way to teach the generations to not do anything bad but focus only on creating good causes.
