It is very thoughtful of you to consider the feelings of this chamæleon but I wouldn't worry too much about his mythogenetic centre. It can't be long before he starts reading Michel Foucault. We will hear less about elephants then and with your Joseph Campbell and perhaps Frazer's Golden Bough we might be spared his ravings for quite a while.

You are quite correct to say that behind the masks of animism there is no God. Perhaps the savages who wear them are trying to attain consciousness but that's not how they describe it. Demons infuse their very breath and are co-extensive with every aspect of their culture producing a structureless society. Their concepts are not so much wrong as absent. Jesus is the answer. In Him we find that association you hinted at, all one in Christ Jesus and sharing His Spirit. Soon those beyond our ken, the ones with whom God teaches us not to associate, will be destroyed. If you choose to reject His love Jesus will destroy you. The Bible explains that then you will be tortured. But if you have been selected to accept Redemption from the claws of Satan then you can praise Him with us forever and ever. And then you can praise Him again. To be among that number, accept Jesus today; just contact the senior pastor or the deaconess tomorrow could be too late.

I am thinking that the story of the blind men and the elephant is a story that is helping people to see that while our initial ideas of a concept are not necessarily wrong, they are biased and inadequate. Yes. I am thinking that you should be reading some Joseph Campbell such as the Masks of God. Behind the masks there is no god but only a striving to a consciousness of yourself and the world. Yes.

I am quoting him. It is from Creative Mythology last chapter. Individualism and spontaneous pluralism - the free association of men and women of like spirit, under protection of a secular, rational state with no pretensions to divinity - are in the modern world the only honest possibility.

He was writing this in 1968. I am seeing this now more clearly as I have been reading the texts of this forum. Yes. The center of mythogenesis is in everyone in this world, just as the center of the universe is in every small volume and it is expanding equally from every spot. Yes.

And to this end the guiding myths can no longer be of any ethnic norms. No sooner learned, these are outdated, out of place, washed away.

Yes. You are seeing a desperate surge of old myths with the hijab, but it is the hijab's last stand. Yes, it is being washed away and the myths that the pupils in my RME class, that is religious and moral education, are following are the Twilight Saga and Totoro and Rogue One and Potter. Yes. I am thinking that you are perhaps looking into the wrong direction for your moksha. The eye of the elephant is everywhere, Mr. Hezekiah, and I am afraid that I must be offending you very badly. Yes.
