Pelies' authentication idea for Jason

The Challenge Under the guise of hospitality, he invited Jason to a banquet. And during the course of the meal, he engaged him in conversation. "You say you've got what it takes to rule a kingdom," said Pelias. "May I take it that you're fit to deal with any thorny problems that arise? For example, how would you go about getting rid of someone who was giving you difficulties?" Jason considered for a moment, eager to show a kingly knack for problem solving. "Send him after the Golden Fleece?" he suggested. "Not a bad idea," responded Pelias. "It's just the sort of quest that any hero worth his salt would leap at. Why, if he succeeded he'd be remembered down through the ages. Tell you what, why don't you go?" from http://www.mythweb.com/heroes/jason/jason04.html Jason's uncle invited him to a banquette during the festivities he tried enraging Jason He asked him what He would do if je wanted to get rid of a problem person. Jason suggested he would send them to find the golden fleece. The uncle agreed suggesting Json should go for the fleece. He you see that Jason was thinking of his uncle as the problem. To aquire the golden fleece means to authenticate oneself by the rites of passage as a authorite that should be given authority and made king. Here Pelias suggested that Jason go authenticate himself. some might think it wAS BELIEVED THAT PEOPLE FAIL THIS JOURNEY BUT IF YOU THINK ABOUT IT, ONE FINDS THAT THE ARGUMENT WAS OVER AUTHENTICITY OF REIGN. tO GET RID OF TEH PROBLEM OF HIS UNCLE HE ASKED HIM TO PARTAKE IN THE RITES necessary to make himself authentic, thus Jason was simply asking his uncle to authenticate his rule, his uncle tells him that it was time he, Jason, authenticates himself and it would put jason in history. Though the journey and rites might be hard to pass, the authentication would legitimise the passer's rule and authority was teh uncle working with Kason? It sounds like they would heated about authenticating their kingdom and het rid of the problem of people claiming it was not authentic.
