The Science Of Myth - Lyrics by Screeching Weasel


Lyrics
If you've ever question beliefs that you hold you're not alone But yououghtta realize that every myth is a metaphor in the case or Christianityand Judaism there exist the belief that spiritual matters are enslaved tohistory The Buddhists believe that the functional aspects override the mythwhile other religions use the literal core to build foundations with Seehalf the world sees the myth as fact while it's seen as a lie by the otherhalf and the simple truth is that it's none of that and somehow no matterwhat the world keeps turning Somehow we get by without ever learning
Science and religion are not mutually exclusive In fact for betterunderstanding we take the facts of science and apply them And if bothfactors keep evolving then we continue getting information but closing offpossibilities makes it hard to see the bigger picture Consider the case ofthe women whose faith helped her make it through when she was raped and cutup left for dead in a trunk her beliefs held true It doesn't matter if it'sreal or not cause some things are better left without a doubt and if itworks then it gets the job done
