So you posit that it's possible that.
Okay, let's not beat around the bush.
You think that religious innovation involving snakes came before agriculture, and Genesis helps track that through our shared myths.
And you say that Judaism is an unbroken cultural chain back to Gobekli Tepe, which is freaking fantastic, right?
And I love it, but I'm slightly concerned that I love it so much because it is from what I was raised in my childhood and what I already have a lot of spiritual significance attached to in my psyche.
The majority of people, if we include India and China in the human population, which we should, don't have lineage that traces back to Judaism.
Why don't their myths also follow this?
So those do as well.
I really like that in the latest post on Hercules, you trace the Hercules myth fairly closely, I think, to the same Genesis myth that there's apples from a woman and eternal life and forbidden fruit and a snake and a tree.
I like the post.
I think people should read it.
And it seems like you also have a significant background in the Greek classics.
Oh, okay.
I think we need people who are deeply steeped in Indian Hindu tradition, people who are steeped in East Asian traditions to like read your stuff and go back and comb through their own histories and be like this.
This works and then contact you and you can put things up on your blog about like, look, this is how it works from other cultures for people who are already familiar with them.
Absolutely real quick.
And we'll cover this again at the end of the episode.
So, you know, people have two places to find it, but how can people reach you if they do have anything to add?
Pretty sure it'll be your blog first.
I really hope.
