The Science Of Myth

If you've ever question beliefs

That you hold you're not alone

But you oughtta realize that

Every myth is a metaphor

In the case of Christianity



And Judaism there exist the

Belief that spiritual matters are

Enslaved to history

The Buddhists believe that the

Functional aspects override

The myth while other religions

Use the literal core to build

Foundations with



See half the world sees the myth

As fact while it's seen as a lie

By the other half and the simple

Truth is that it's none of that

And somehow no matter what the

World keeps turning



Somehow we get by without ever learning

Science and religion are no

Mutually exclusive

In fact for better understanding

We take the facts of science

And apply them



And if both factors keep evolving

Then we continue getting information

But closing off possibilities makes

It hard to see the bigger picture



Consider the case of

The women whose faith helped

Her make it through when she

Was raped and cut up left for dead

In a trunk her beliefs held true



It doesn't matter if it's

Real or not cause some things

Are better left without a doubt and

If it works then it gets the job done
