Well, the Cree creation story is a truth of it's own.

It is a type of mythology. Myths are necessary, and they work they're way into our popular conscienceless. As a society, we accept them as a type of truth. And they are such.

Myths, themselves, are changeable as the need dictates.

That's probably the best reply to one of the "other" creation stories I have posted. Thank you!

Well, the Cree Hebrew creation story is a truth of it's own.

It is a type of mythology. Myths are necessary, and they work they're way into our popular conscienceless. As a society, we accept them as a type of truth. And they are such.

Myths, themselves, are changeable as the need dictates.
