*** Feb/March Lite Challenge: Mapping a Myth CLOSED ***

[Coyotemax]

calling it a real myth can work. The myth itself may involve things that are not real, like a storybook may contain a story that's not real. The book itself is real though

aaah semantics. whee!

[Sigurd]

Perhaps not always 'Real' but very often "True".

The wisdom of soloman - baby fought over by two 'mothers' - has helped lots of people and is commonly referred to.

They can certainly be more true than reality which tends to be filled with so many exceptions and corruptions.

"Fairy tales (and Myths) are more than true -- not because they tell us dragons exist, but because they tell us dragons can be beaten."
