(urth) An Old mystery ...

[Son of Witz]

I'm not sure about any of that.
I don't mean to stand behind this theory, though I've seen better  
presentations by people more versed in the subject than I.

my point was that some people find this material, cosmic theory  
compelling, and find that it takes all the meaning out of the Myth.
If it does correspond, it still doesn't kill it for me.

I guess it's a lame attempt to counter that though you've got a fairly  
tight theory about Hierogrammite manipulation without Divinity that  
seems to hold water, it still does not flatten out those higher  
meanings for me.
