In their style and highly anthropomorphous form‚ they lack close parallels in earlier cultures‚ and compared to the gods of monotheistic religions seem petty‚ small-minded‚ and unworthy‚ perhaps‚ of veneration. Moreover‚ their role as a literary device is highly contested; some authors‚ assign to them the function of comedy and light relief‚ their actions affording a hiatus from the intense fighting

In his first meditation‚ he elucidates the idea that he was raised with numerous false beliefs‚ all of which he believes should be thrown out in order to reach a certain truth.

    "Crazy Face" The song I chose to review is “Crazy Face” by Van Morrison on the album “His Band and the Street Choir”.
