“formally organized beliefs and practices typically centered around the worship of supernatural forces or beings”
What do you think is taking place when they are sacrificing a bull or a lamb to Zeus, or visiting the temple of Dionysus. Romans (since we’re using them as an example) had very structured forms of worship around their gods. So how exactly is that NOT a religion in your brain?
Because we are talking about mythology not religion. I have never stated that mythology cannot be a part of religion or that they are mutually exclusive. I am merely stating that they are different. Anything else is something you’re adding onto it yourself.
I don’t get what’s so difficult to understand about it. They’re not mutually exclusive but you keep compounding them into the same thing. Religion can have mythology and I’ve never said that it can’t. I’ve merely said that they’re different which is true. You’re arguing that the liver and the immune system is the same thing. I’m merely saying that they work together.
I have provided sources. You can educate yourself on your own time, not mine. I’m not interested in continuing this conversation. You clearly don’t know what you’re talking about. You keep claiming you have an education in this yet every single source contradicts you and proves you wrong. You, on the other hand, haven’t provided a single source beyond “I have a diploma”. I don’t trust your education. I trust sources and experts. Considering you have failed to provide a single shred of evidence to back up your claims, I’m going to stick to stuff that has been proven over your random claims based off of your own insane misunderstanding of what is even being talked about in the first place, claims that you have not once backed up at any point in this thread.
Good luck with whatever that behavior is. If you even do have a diploma I feel so incredibly bad for your professors that you didn’t learn rule number 1: Provide sources and don’t believe blindly.
A degree in classical archaeology is more than enough education versus someone who read a couple of articles online. But keep on believing what you want. Enjoy your day.
Dude you literally just said it yourself;

We are talking about made-up bullshit not made-up bullshit
