Journal 8: Hubris
First, record the definition of hubris:

• hubris: excessive pride or confidence

Then, watch the TED myth: Prometheus and Pandora. In most Greek myths and plays, hubris (the pride that causes the fall) is viewed as the ultimate problem. Do you agree that this is the ultimate sin? Is it such a big deal? Explain why you believe they viewed it this way and why you view it yours.
