Week 5

This week was my least favorite week in terms of readings and discussions. The topic was art vs. sports and how they compare. I do not think they do at all and i will continue to refure to listen to anyone who truly thinks they are very similar. I think that art can not be conpared with sports because there is nearly zero physical activity it art. There is art in sports but there is no sport in art ad that is the most obvious thing to me.

You would refuse to listen to anyone who thinks otherwise? That's not a good way to learn. And your comment about "sometimes sport is art but art is never sport" was brought up in class last week. The only reason the former makes sense verbally is because art is a general term that is used to describe both what people call art as well as sport. It's just how the use of the term has developed in our language. It has nothing to do with what sport and art (as we call them) actually are. It's similar to the way that there can be a general category, "store," and two specifics, "Hy-Vee" and "Wal-Mart." Titles don't matter. Our perception of the entities themselves do.
