Excellent, as usual. Your knowledge is remarkable, as well as your understanding of mythopoesis.

The recurrence of themes that are common to all cultures is always fascinating. And it should be taught in schools, as a foundation for tolerance and to spread a culture that is both respectful of differences and recognizes everyone's belonging to humanity.

Thank you, that's much appreciated. I agree that some awareness of the universality of the core mythic themes would be an eye-opener for many – I think it reveals a lot about us as a species – and that, when it's all boiled down, we aren't so different from each other.
