Even though I'm a grown-up, I still like unicorns! I love their long, spiraling horns.
I agree. Unicorns have always fascinated me. They've always seemed to possess such a pure magical essence that's hard to resist.
Yes there's something so enchanting about them. They were even mentioned in the bible - they were called the re'em.
Huh. I didn't know that. What did the unicorns do in the bible? 
I am not sure, but some say that a unicorn's horn can make poisoned water drinkable, and can cure illness.
I think I've heard that before, or something similar. I do know in some myths it considered a great sin to kill unicorns because of their power and beauty. 
Yes they were often seen as a symbol of purity, which was why it was believed they could only be captured by a virgin.
Right. I think they were also hunted by demons and the like who wanted their horn, if I'm remembering correctly.
Probably! I like the old drawings of them as more goat-like than horse like, with a little beard and cloven hooves
I don't think I've ever seen any of those. I do wonder how they became considered to be something for only children given the complex mythology surrounding them.
