research paper: angels, demons, and ghosts
Hey, I need some advice about something.
I'm in an American folklore class, and the major assignment for the semester in there is to do a huge 10 page research paper. In order to do this, we had to pick a topic of interest from folklore, conduct interviews, do research, and then compile the information in a paper.
I've been thinking about my topic, but before I embark on it, I wanted to get some input. I originally wanted to do something where I researched ghost, angel, and demon stories, in the hopes that I would come to some answer as to what ghosts actually are. I had a theory, and I wanted to know if it might possibly be true. Anyway, my professor told me that the topic was too broad, and that I should just research one of them. Am I totally stupid if I decide to research the demons. Now, I wouldn't be trying to invite any into my life, just hear stories of people who have dealt with them, and find out what that person did throughout the encounter. I'm just looking for stories, not seance invitations or something.
I just wanted to know if ya'll thought that this is totally stupid and that I should go with the angel encounters instead. Better yet, maybe I should go with traditional Christmas foods or something. Anyway, any advice ya'll could give me would be appreciated, and should I go with this topic, prayer would too.
In Christ,
