Myths
may have begun in the oldest sense, as a way for humans to explain the
unknown of their world—the world they could see as well as the world they
could not see.
Long
before science envisioned a Big Bang.
Long
before Greek philosophers reasoned, Siddhartha Gautama sought enlightenment,
or Jesus walked the shores of the Sea of Galilee.
Long
before there was a Bible or a Koran.
Long
before Darwin proposed natural selection.Long before we could know the age of a rock and before men walked on
the moon, there were myths.
