Interesting that yoo should say that about history. I see history as more like mythology than anything else. History is not altogeather fiction but also it has been skewed and often times intentionally altered to suit the purpoes of indivuals. Still the stories have meaning.
This is why I don't bother to debate whether Christ was historical or mythological. Even the Gospels themselves contradict one another (paticularly John's as he was the most prone to confabulation) and the Church portaryal of the Jesus myth conflicts severely in many aspects to what is generally considered to be their source material.
Anyway, the scope is not all or nothing, it's success, failure is not an option. Success has a pretty wide range as long as the basic criteria are met and not even met instantly, only before it's too late (which unfortunatly I will not be here for).
Furthermore I should add that this is NOT a religious issue. People should be free to believe whatever they want, I'm not trying to pull this John 3:16 crap where yoo have to believe in such and such a god or whatever. It is an issue of people coming to terms with the fact that they have Free Will and the ramifications thereof.
Respectfully yors, brother.
