<h2><em>prepare a speech on science and superstition</em></h2>

  • <em>One of the most important steps in the development of a scientific attitude is perceived by many, as a relentless fight against SUPERSTITIOUS BELIEFS. Superstitious beliefs are easy to define within the scientific framework. Any idea or theory that cannot be tested using the SCIENTIFIC METHOD, is superstition. Many rationalist organizations have put in great amounts of time and effort, to fight superstition. In their zealous pursuit, they have run into opposition from religious and other groups, that take offense to the rationalists incapability in distinguishing belief, from superstition. Is there really any difference between the two? The answer depends on your point of view. In the scientific framework, there is no fundamental difference.

Does the heroic code expressed in beowulf conflict with a christian sensibility?
oksano4ka [1.4K]
<span>That is a difficult one because Christian believes and Beowulf is a matter of interpretation. What one may view as sensibility is actually just a matter of common sense. However, every aspect of life is covered in the Bible and thus to suggest (if this is what you are suggesting) Beowulf is explained taking Christian values into consideration?

How is Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein an epistolary novel
larisa [96]

Mary Shelley uses a multiple narrative in Frankenstein. A multiple narrative (sometimes referred to as an epistolary narrative) uses the voices of multiple characters within the text. Epistolary narratives can also use letters (such as Walton's four letters at the opening of the novel and the letters between the Frankenstein family) to detail parts of the plot and storyline.
