Myth

When we were speaking about the definition of myth, I remembered this passage from Bible as Lit.



Ecclesiastes 1:9



 What has been will be again,
 what has been done will be done again;
 there is nothing new under the sun.

Here is another passage I found which gives us examples of how myth defies originality:

Arctic fish used anti-freeze in their bloodstreams long before people put it in their cars. There are aeroplanes, but birds flew much earlier, there are satellites, but the moon was there earlier. Whales are better than submarines and as for nuclear fusion the sun and stars had that worked out long before we did.


If you don't have an iPhone, well... you don't have an iPhone.  Redundant?
