    Question 2: After reading the Epic of Gilgamesh is seems that his conclusion on the purpose of life is finding balance between the eternal life and the mortal one which I would agree. Faith is not a bad thing but when we fail to adapt to the real world we end up hurting ourselves‚ in order to fulfil are spiritual goals sometimes requires us to come to terms of our mortal attributes and shortcomings. Question 3: The huge and impressive monuments show us that ancient Egypt valued science and math
