I'm not sure how much you need or how specific but look at whatever you are interested in light of the Mythologies of say Ancient Greece and one other culture, like Egypt or the Celts or The Norse. If you like medicine then look at the medicine in Greek and Norse mythology. If you are into cars, look at the transportation in Greek and Egyptian mythology (no cars but some other really interesting ideas). It gives you stuff to compare and discuss and you can easily stretch it into 20+ pages or keep it under 5. If you get under way and get stuck, email me and I can help you get back on track. (I'm a stay at home mom and I REALLY wouldn't mind a little distraction.)

Try the authenticity of the bible. There is nothing in the bible that can be found anywhere else in history.
No garden of Eden, no flood over the entire world with an ark of Noah, no Sodom and Gomorrah, no Joseph, Joshua, Abraham, Isaac, Moses or Israelites in Egypt, no temple of Solomon, no Jesus ever known to exist. This is a great place to start.

if you want to raise hairs, report on the Celtic Myth of Finnan Macdonald.....the guy that drove the snakes from Ireland...before St. Patrick.

There is a medieval Jewish legend of a man made out of mud called the 'golem'. He is supposed to have been created by the celebrated Jewish mystic Rabbi Isaac Loew of Prague.
