Thought-provoking article. Just a suggestion to edit for inclusive language. Using “man” to mean “humanity” or “humankind” feels outdated.

Thanks for making me smile, Driven Press. I really am fascinated by this stuff, and I’m sure others are as well. There is so much unknown, so much intrigue, it’s hard to know where the truth starts and ends…if it does at all.
Makes me think of a saying I often use:
“Be passionately curious, in reading and in life. Always.”

I love finding out ‘things’ when I’m reading. In my younger days I learned a lot about several favourite historical periods courtesy of historical romance – Tudor Kings & Queens, court intrigue at Versailles, the Jacobite uprising and Highlanders. Then Dan Brown led me into much googling about all things religion, art and science and now you have been the catalyst for many happy hours at the computer discovering Lemuria, Atlantis and all the myths of supernatural creatures. I love nothing more than being caught up in a story, but also to be drawn that one step further and have my mind opened and taken on a journey I never expected. Thanks, Dee.
