    This is food for thought, brilliant. Spirituality in the wrong hands will become a weapon. There is deep secrets about the beginnings of life, but it will never be revealed.

    The cutting edge of human culture is evolving beyond the human enterprise's religious phase. Now we have the scientific method, neurobiology, evolutionary and clinical psychology. This adds up to real understanding rather than baseless speculation.

      Hi Melanie,
      That's an interesting idea-I hadn't heard about that connection before. Do you have any more information on it? As I understand, the Proto-Indo-Europeans migrated from the Black Sea region around 5,000 to 8,000 years ago, carrying their myths and culture into Europe, as well as southward into Persia and eventually into India.
      There seems to be evidence of their influence extending eastward into Mongolia, East Asia, and possibly even the Polynesian islands. Some theories even suggest that these cultural elements may have reached as far as South America.

      I recommend reading The Origin of the World Mythologies, by Michael Witzel, it's an absolute must for world myth. There is also a great book called Indo-European Poetry and Myth, by Martin Litchfield West which covers the Indo-European migration in detail. :-)

    "Faith" is required to "Believe in Lies" and that is why religions/cults are created and demand "Faithfulness" to maintain Power and Control over their subjects.

    • @mythopia1
      @mythopia1  Год назад +4

      I'm going to address this issue in my upcoming podcasts, but I suspect there are many theologians who truly believe in their religion, which means they are not seeking to dupe or control people, but rather enlighten them. Atheists may see their faith as misguided and delusional, whereas theologians will consider it a virtuous endeavour, helping them to experience the 'divine' on a more subjective level.
      I'll also add that there are entrepreneurs out there who are ethical and generous with their wealth, while others are charlatans who dupe people out of their money to make themselves incredibly wealthy. Perhaps the issue of deception and control is a not just a church problem, but a social problem, which affects all spheres of culture, such as education, law and media, etc... As I stated in my video, I'm approaching this series as an agnostic, so I'll challenge all the faiths in my tree of religion, but I'll stay listen to them with an open mind, in case there are deeper truths and insights that may share with us along the way.

    Myths, legends, fairytales and religion were all born of the same cloth. Myths, legends and fairytales were stories told to explain the unknown. As more people believed these stories, or someone figured out how to control others with them, they became a religion. As understanding and knowledge grew those in power have always sought to destroy the knowledge so as to remain in power.

    • @mythopia1
      @mythopia1  Год назад +1

      I've heard many people share the same opinion on religion. I'd like to believe that some religious founders, who believed they had undertaken a profound, 'religious' experience, used their knowledge to help, rather than to capitalise on others. Emerging evidence has shown us that people who have a near-death experiences, often undergo a major transformation, becoming more charitable, humble and kind. Perhaps Buddhism, Aboriginal Dreamtime and early Christianity were all truly transformative religions, with good intent. However, as often happens, systems typically become too large and complex, and corruption sets in. I'll be interested in learning more about it when I speak with some theologians later down the road.

      "Woven" of the same "threads". "Cut" from the same "cloth". "Born of the same cloth" mixes metaphors. Cloths aren't born. Cloths are made, they are "woven".

      Hi there. I’m always open to hearing alternative viewpoints and exploring other theories. The “Out of Africa” model is indeed supported by a strong scientific consensus based on fossil, genetic, and archaeological data, which forms the foundation of my work.
      However, I’m aware that there are ongoing studies and emerging perspectives that add complexity to out of Africa hypothesis. If you’re open to discussing your viewpoint, I’d love to hear more. I believe in grounding my work in evidence-based research while staying open-minded to new ideas, and I appreciate it when others are willing to share their insights constructively.
      Feel free to share your ideas, not only for myself but for everyone interested. And if you have a change of heart, feel free to watch the rest of the video, Jon Whites insights are very balanced and eye opening. 🙂

      The Out of Africa theory hasn't been debunked; it's still the most robust model for understanding human origins. Recent findings show that modern humans interbred with other hominins like Neanderthals and Denisovans during their migrations out of Africa, but our genetic and anatomical roots trace back to Africa. It's a fascinatingly complex story, but Africa remains the cradle of modern humanity.
