Art?

I think art is made up of opinions. Everyone has a different perspective and different stardards for art. Art is created everyday by the things we do. I think there are differnt forms of art and different catagories. For instance, Gormet cuisine could be considered art or choir/ band can be considered fine arts. I belive that its all up to each of us to craetea our own standard and deffintion of art!

WOZ is Def. Cosmic Humanism!!

The WOZ is def Cosmic Humanism because Everything that the characters needed to find was in themselves. Thus not needing a higher power to look to for their strengths. Cosmic Humanists believe that to find God you must look inside your self to become whole and realize everything you were looking for is inside you. Thus proving that The WOZ is Cosmic Humanist!

wIZARD OF oZ!

When searching for a world view in a text you look for who the author is speaking to, the tone of the piece, any outstanding stments that could be morally chalenging. Wizard of Oz takes the world view of cosmic humanism. You can conclude this by examining the different characters of the book/movie. Cosmic humanists belive that God is everything and everything is God. Thus reflected in the Wizard of Oz for, example the cowardly lion always had courage and the scare crow always had a heart they just needed to look in themselves for the answeres.
