[Paleopsych] mythology and the mind

[Michael Christopher]

>>Why is there is an eternal return of certain mythic
themes in religion, such as messiah myths, flood
myths, creation myths, destruction myths, redemption
myths, and end of the world myths? What do these
recurring themes tell us about the workings of the
human mind and culture?<<

--Maybe that the mind operates in some ways like a
fractal, and that social patterns of dominance,
appeasement and sacrifice are projected onto nature
automatically, given the lack of a more accurate
model.
