How we should live life according to Aryeh

How should we live in this world?

According to Ishmael i haven't really fully understood the way people should live but i think because he is an animal and he knows a lot of history well according to what he tells our narrator. Ishmael says
"They were looking at a half of one-percent of the evidence taken from a single culture-- Not a reasonable sample on which to base such a sweeping conclusion."
what i understand is that the people are making one thing and using that and making that the only defense as why we "people" live like this. Im thinking of religion where the people use to tell other people who are trying to defend the animal ways and mother culture ways to stop or to ease on the norms of the peoples ways.

how i should think we should live life is just live it. Do whatever makes you happy and that's it nothing more. you might be living it the wrong way way but who else are you hurting. and that's the question that a lot of people don't think of who else am i hurting but in reality you may be hurting more that yourself. so this answer it depends to the person. If they really want to be a "superhero" and be the world savior alright but if you want to be a happy person with no stress alright.

"" But I am afraid i have another question""

I like this quote because the whole book is about questioning and answering and to me this is funny because he has to tell Ismael this but this is good because with out questioning we wouldn't get anywhere and elaborate our minds.

I wonder if Ishmael is ever going to ask a question not a rhetorical one though.

QQC #3

"" That's it! They are acting as if they were the gods themselves. (Quinn 177)

I chose this quote because the humans, us are acting like gods after the skit and the reading of the book i came to the conclusion that we are acting like gods. God first made the earth then separated the skies and the waters then made light then fruit and trees and plants then animals then at the end created man. if we agree with Ishmael's animals were here first but because we are "smarter and bigger" than the animals we say how animals and trees and everything on this earth is used. i dont really know wher im going with this but I know that we pretending to be something we are not but thats my opinion.

INTERVIEW with FRIENDS

There i was outside of the Golden Spoon hanging out with friends from church. as we were sitting there enjoying delicious yogurt ice cream we started talking about whats going on in our life and in school and I brought up the interview we had to do for Humanities and we stated talking about the subject of how we are supposed to be taking care of our world and why do it.
it started by me just simply asking what do u think about the world?
Luciano who is a little older than everybody said that yea its good to e taking care of the world if you can do it why not. and since everybody is younger than him and look up to Luciano everybody agreed. and started talking about how everybody recycles and everybody said that they put everyhting in the right bins and just be mindful like what goes where like the cans and bottles in the blue bin and plants and and grass in the green one. since everybody live in eastlake they are used to idea of doing what they are supposed to be doing. the talk didnt last that long because people had to leave and from there we had plans after that. but what I got from the short talk was that the people was raised

QQC #2

a quote that i really liked was the quote in page 81
"Then we move into the Star Trek era. Man moves out into space and conquers and rule the entire universe. And that may be the ultimate destiny of man: to conquer and rule the entire universe. That's how wonderful man is." " (Quinn 81)

I like this quote because the character in the book is saying what the future may hold if we are out in this earth to rule what is when we "finish" conquering the world we have to rule something else so we never stop doing what we were supposed to be doing which is to rule the earth. and star trek is a pretty awesome series. That's why i like this quote and its easy to believe what the furut may hold if we continue this ruling what avaliable.

Hello the world is waiting

The Creation of Man

I grew up learning that God the creator of all things created man. From creating Adam and Eve and letting them reproduce and popularize the world. but theres other theories from other people that man came from evolution and that we come from monkeys or something like that. many people have many beliefs and i don't want to make people that god is the creator of all thing or make people make me think that evolution is what happen.

"I was after something else entirely,
but it wasn't in the Yellow Pages or
anywhere else that I could discover."
- Page 5-

i picked this quote because what the character is looking for is something that can be found or that its so unimportant to many people that they don't even bother stating the job. And from this u can see that the character is different than the rest of the people of the world maybe he is going to do something different.

Right now i understand everything that is going on so im really liking the book so far.
