Even assuming that these myths hold some key or secret, anything really beyond the use that they were invented for is giving them a great deal of credit which they haven't earned. Assumptions, assumptions. Perhaps there isn't anything to it at all, no flame, not even a spark. I'd make the analogy of trying to find the "eternal flame" in the body of knowledge we call phrenology.
Let me state for the record that I'm an atheist - I ain't hiding in the bushes with any bullshit - now that that's past, do you have a reading comprehension problem?
Being civil about it, the only thing my processor giving me for insight into the inspiration for your comment is that you think I'm trying to justify some bullshit.
So here's what I've already done. Took all of the "holy Bible," reduced it, and stuck it into the tao te ching. What that means, is I can take my copy of the tao out into this Christian wasteland of Phoenix and kick over some tables in some temples.
That doesn't do shit other than self-gratification. If you got a problem with the tao te ching, I figure you're just broke in the head; or I don't know. Perhaps you are just insulting my integrity because you find me somehow offensive.
