The early myths of Mesopotamia, Egypt, Asia Minor, Canaan, Greece, and Rome havegreatly and continuously influenced all of Western culture and civilization. Myths rely on imaginationand intuition; they express fervently held convictions about the ultimate nature of things, exploring themysteries of life and death, passion and suffering. Today, theological interest is resurging in goddessworship, and other early nature-based religions are receiving a renewed attention. This presentation alsodiscusses how the literature and culture of these religions have influenced Hebrew and Christian scriptures.The Religion, Scriptures, and Spirituality series describes the beliefs, religious practices, and the spiritual and moral commitments of the world's great religious traditions.
