did i like the end of the play

No not really it was crazy and confusing because the mother and wife of oedipus killrd herself . and because oedipus saw and didn't like what he saw and put his own eyes out. that was kind of crazy but i guess he wanted to feel the pain and agony his wife and mother felt, so he wanted to kill himself but no one would kill him so he will suffer till death.

My opinion about characters in oedipus

oedipus: he is a person who doesn't find out who he is killing before he does.
kreon: he was hating on oedipus, he wanted to be king and was trying to keep oedipus from king.
tireses: can tell the future, and is a punk because he knew oedipus was the one who killed laios.
jocasta: is a nasty lady who tends to sleep with her own children.
the shepard: always confused and didn't know rather to be on oedipuses side are the people.
Laios: he was the king of thebes who was killed by oedipus.

Do I like Oedipus Rex

This play is interesting to me only when there is action and less talking. The only parts that could be more interesting is when the people are trying to find out who killed the sphinx. Then the person who did kill the sphinx is oedipus and he doesn't even know that the person he killed is the king of Thebes. Those were the interesting parts to me. Now the rest of the play it kind of bores me. The only reason is because of the way it is interpreted in a play. It seems like they were writing it in poem kind of form, and the way they talk it is harder to read and understand. If we don't understand what we are reading the teacher would have to explain in the way we could understand, that is most of the boring part. Other than that it was okay in a boring kind of way.

My Heros

My first hero is Jesus his mother was a royal virgin and she was inpregnanted by god and she had Jesus. Jesus had great stength and he was smarter than all mankind. he knew the answer to everything if not the answer he knew how to get the answer. The reason I chose my selection of jesus as one of my heros because he is good person even though I have never met him I have heard nothing bad about him.

Batman is a nother hero that reaches manhood, he returns or goes to a future kingdom. he does go back to get revenge but i like him because he solves all the bad problems and gets the villians caught up and locked up in jail. Batman is strong and no one of any mankind can defeat him. I just like Batman.

Superman at birth there is often an attempt to kill him. He mayhave been kiddnapped or sent to live somewhere else for protection. Superman no other super villian can defeat superman. He has all types of powers and a lot of strength. I like superman because if he were real I would go to him for any help I need.

My real life hero would have to be Chris Tucker in the movie rush hour with Jackie Chan. They were trying to find the villian who a long time ago killed Jackies father and the case was never solved. So Chris and Jackie wanted to solve the case and bust the killer who killed Jackies father. They do catch the bad guy a couple of times and Jackie finds that the killer is his brother and that is why it took a couple of times before they bust the killer. These are my heros because they went back in time to solve the case.

Mr. Incredible experienced a symbolic death or has to travel to the underworld. The incredibles were super heros who in the end the whole family became heros and they got rid of the villians together.He has villlians that try and stop him from accomplishing his quest to save his family. He is my hero because he has confidence and he keeps trying until it's finished. These are my heroes.

Evolution,creation,intelligent design

Evolution-(a gradual change over time.)
Creationism-(people who get information from the bible.)
Intelligent Design-(that we do come from somewhere.)
In this life today there are plenty of evolutional matters. For example, the population of st.louis is gradully getting larger. If it were getting smaller then people would be disappearing with the quickness, but they are not it is getting larger.
In creationism people try and find where the human body really comes from. Like for example, the critian people go by the bible. They believe in only one god and go by the rules of that god. They believe to sin is dealing with the devel. I guess the devil is a certain god of evil and hate. The people who read the bible they do not believe really in this god they just think when people do evil then he I a stimulant to this evil.
intelligent design is a certain design of which will tell you that where you come from in a good understandable way. Such as reproducing and the first people on earth. You can take the bible for example. That is a way of intelligent design. These are the three things that come around mostly in life.
