Mountains, trees, animals, etc. Were all considered to be gods once, but we figured out they weren't, so super people were invented that caused lightning, thunder and other natural occurrences but they died, too when we found out better.
Now we have invisible, undetectable creatures with no physical connection to our universe and no observable actions. Harder to disprove.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
