>>ERIN:Nargess I think you are interpreting my use of the word myth in saying
that base of religion is false. Religions are passed on generation to
generation through stories. I am not sure of your religion but I am having
trouble imaginging a religion with no stories to explain it. The best stories
seem to register because of the truth in them. (the stories don't have to be a
part of religion for example Pirsig but they can be too)
Myths allow people to communicate their beliefs but that doesn't mean their
beliefs are delusions it just means religions are transmitted through them
(partly at least) .

>> Enter myths, stories that help us to “make sense”
>> out of out lives, “guiding
