The Science Of Myth Lyrics
that you hold you're not alone
But you oughtta realize that
every myth is a metaphor
in the case of Christianity
and Judaism there exist the
belief that spiritual matters are
enslaved to history
The Buddhists believe that the
functional aspects override
the myth while other religions
use the literal core to build
foundations with
See half the world sees the myth
as fact while it's seen as a lie
by the other half and the simple
truth is that it's none of that
and somehow no matter what the
world keeps turning
Somehow we get by without ever learning
Science and religion are no
mutually exclusive
In fact for better understanding
we take the facts of science
and apply them
And if both factors keep evolving
then we continue getting information
but closing off possibilities makes
it hard to see the bigger picture
Consider the case of
the women whose faith helped
her make it through when she
was raped and cut up left for dead
in a trunk her beliefs held true
It doesn't matter if it's
real or not cause some things
are better left without a doubt and
if it works then it gets the job done
Screeching Weasel The Science Of Myth
