1. "Anyone can pick up a book of Greek myths. For sure, they will get something from it."
2. "Any modern person who reads or hears of Greek myths will be hard-pressed (to have a difficult time) to stay unaffected."

Some details that support this are "They are stories of people dealing with the gods and either they come out triumphant or they end up bloody and charred or turned into animals and plants." Another piece of evidence is "These tales rarely have the happily-ever-after endings people are so used to these days but remember, they weren’t written for entertainment—they were written with a higher purpose." https://padlet.com/charltynswift/1r2x5y55bi9uxlue/wish/703409005 2020-08-27 18:16:29 UTC https://padlet.com/charltynswift/1r2x5y55bi9uxlue/wish/703409005 Main idea: People study Greek myths even though they are made up so they can learn from it.

Detail 2: In a sense, these myths serve as a warning for people on how they should and should not be. https://padlet.com/charltynswift/1r2x5y55bi9uxlue/wish/703409339 2020-08-27 18:16:35 UTC https://padlet.com/charltynswift/1r2x5y55bi9uxlue/wish/703409339 What is the importance of Greeks https://padlet.com/charltynswift/1r2x5y55bi9uxlue/wish/703442620 Main Idea: There are a lot of Greek influences around the world who study Greek culture.
