Various civilizations such as Easter Island‚ Catal Huyuk and Mesopotamia have been destroyed because of self destructive traps called progress traps (Wright‚ p 56). Progress traps are created by three main factors namely

Published roughly two centuries apart‚ ‘Everyman’ and ‘The Pilgrim’s Progress’ are two very different‚ yet highly similar pieces of religious literature. Laying a great deal of emphasis on “salvation through good works and sacraments” (Lecture)‚ the late medieval play ‘Everyman’ is a profound piece of Catholic work with strong religious purpose.
