Featured Comments/Tips
[Curtocircuito] Monster comes from the Latin '"monstrare'", which means to show, but this proposal does not really intend to show, but rather to propose a change in our way of looking. What was once guided by scientific logic is currently unsustainable. Perhaps it is because we have changed the way we see things. Flashes of wooded areas, anatomy museums, large volumes in which natural and '"non-natural'" beings are drawn.
