This paper compares Gilgamesh and Odyssey, and then Buddah-Karita and Mohammed. Both stories reflect how their gods could be manipulated for their own purposes. Their story is similar to our lives today in that we rely upon others for help. Odyssey and Gilgamesh used people to get their needs met in the story. In Mohammed the young men respect and listen to Mohammed, while in Odyssey the young men wanted to marry Penelope. Odyssey seems to be a story of victory and peace at the end. Mohammed died and continues to live on with the Moslem belief. Odyssey is a story of love and conquering. Mohammed is a story about a religion that many continue to belief.
