With this sort of punishment county sets itself at the same level as the criminal and this may increase aggressiveness and lover the value of human life. People who support capital punishment have as good arguments as those who are against it. Capital punishment helps to preserve people's belief in justice and the power of law. It also may help preventing wild justice. For this kind of punishment is the fact that public opinion has always supported it. It would be cynical to decide whether a person dies or lives based on financial consideration. If a person makes a crime, which is very well thought of and premeditated (as for homicide) capital punishment, in financial point of view, would certainly be cheaper, than his lifelong deportment on taxpayer collect. It is hard to take one position, for there are pros and cons to be considered. But as far as I am concerned, capital punishment should not be abolished. Especially for premeditated and harsh crimes.

boots for himself, but Paul discourages him from pressing the matter further. They will have to keep watch until Kemmerich dies and then take the boots before the orderlies steal them. The first bombardment showed us our mistake, and under it the world as they had taught it to us broke in pieces. Summary Paul recalls his life before the war. As a young student, he used to write poetry. Now, he feels empty and cynical, thinking that his short time as a soldier has taught him more hard lessons about life than a decade at school could. He has no interest in, or time for, poetry, and his parents now seem to him a hazy and unreliable memory. He feels that "only facts are real and important to us." Paul ruminates that he and the other young men of his generation were cut off from life just as they had begun to live it. The older soldiers have jobs and families to which they can return

Climate change. Solar (2010), a satirical novel focusing on climate change. It is a satire about a jaded Nobel-winning physicist whose dysfunctional personal life and cynical ambition see him pursuing a solar-energy based solution for climate change.
that change is generally a good thing. I encountered artists from Eastern Europe who pointed out that in their cultures, there is deep c y n i c i s m about heroic efforts to change the world. T h e world is as it is, any efforts to change it are a foolish waste of time, and any so-called heroes who try to change it are d o o m e d to fail. T h i s point of view is not necessarily an antithesis o f the Hero's Journey — the pattern is flexible enough to embrace the cynical or p r a g m a t i c philosophies, and many of its principles are still operative in stories that reflect them. However, I must acknowledge that not every person or culture sees the m o d e l as optimistically as I do, and they might be right. BUT W H A T ABOUT... It's exciting to see that there is no end to what can be learned from the Hero's Journey concepts. I find surprising and delightful turns of the path every time I pick up a
unconsciously seeks conflict and it needs opposition to define its boundary and thus its identity. Its members will then experience the suffering that inevitably comes in the wake of any ego-motivated action. At that point, they may wake up and realize that their collective has a strong element of insanity. It can be painful at first to suddenly wake up and realize that the collective you had identified with and worked for is actually insane. Some people at that point become cynical or bitter and henceforth deny all values, all worth. This means that they quickly adopted another belief system when the previous one was recognized as illusory and therefore collapsed. They didn't face the death of their ego but ran away and reincarnated into a new one. A collective ego is usually more unconscious than the individuals that make up that ego. For example crowds (which are temporary collective egoic
