Exactly right. The external sources merely provide context in a, "Hey, this is what those goat fuckers down there believe in" way. There's nothing in them that says, "Well, since those goat fuckers believe in those myths, they must be true." To attempt to describe them as sticking up for the veracity of the set of myths you happen to believe in is laughably dishonest.
