Apparently Values and Cultures involves an extensive study of Joseph Campbell's The Power of Myth book. It costs me S$33 when Kinokuniya only sells it at S$25.33 but happens to be out of stock!
I can't help but keep dozing off in class due to the fact that I have to learn some philosophy I can't really agree with. I basically wrote nothing for the quiz in the morning.
Explain what is "deshi".
Explain what is "marga"
Describe the Gaia principal.
What in the world are all these nonsense that I'm learning?! Joseph Campbell seems to have introduced a whole new religion by himself: Mythology.
What's worse is there are more to come for us to digest. Sadly the biggest chunk come from a person who relates all religion into one same cause. Now Buddha, Mohammed, Moses and Jesus are adventurers.
Spent money on unworthy books is way off my expenses principles. I rarely even buy books to start with.
I now feel like I am not attending class on Values and Cultures but a religious class. I wonder why I just can't keep my focus. Maybe God wants me to sleep this through? But I wouldn't be able to do the quizzes.
Please keep me in prayer. This is by far the worst class I have attended.

No worries mate. As long as you know where you stand, these nonsense won't shake your faith. In fact, your faith will grow stronger.
