In Pandora's Box, Zeus punishes Prometheus for giving fire to mankind when Zeus didn't approve. Zeus disguises his punishment as a gift-a woman named Pandora to marry Prometheus's brother Epimetheus. Pandora comes with a box that is never supposed to be opened. But of course, curiosity gets the best of her and she opens it. Out come all evil things known to mankind, and now humans will have to face these evils every day. However, there is a glimmer of hope at the bottom of the box representing hope for humanity amidst all the evil. I believe this story is quite similar to the story of Adam and Eve but with different temptations. But the stories, however, convey the same message.
If there is one evil things I could get rid of the came out of Pandora's box that day it would be abortion. That might be be a selfish choice on my part, but it's what I'm passionate about. I wish abortion didn't exist so everyone could have fair right to life.
