Anyhow, it's clear what some of you guys are saying now. What is going on is that an equivocation is going on between two common usages of the word "myth". In the context of religion and anthropology and such, "myth" means something completely different from the more casual meaning of the word.

You're saying, from what I've read, that your religion is NOT a mythology because it's your religion.

What the fuck are you talking about?
