I think you have a rather low opinion of humans. Yes, sex motivates many things, but it’s not the only thing that motivates. I go to the gym to get in shape. Is that JUST to increase my chances to get laid? Or is it possible there are other more important motivations as well?

Honest question, and apologies if you’ve said it somewhere and I missed it, but do you disagree with him on the importance of recognizing the truth in the myths and archetypes? Just curious.

Well very succinct:) lol. How come? It seems to me that there is a lot of questions answered if we perceive the mythic world as being more than just old stories. I think that’s actually the real reason he’s drawn such a crowd.

I argued that here: https://areomagazine.com/2017/12/08/the-problem-with-truth-and-reason-in-a-post-truth-society/ … Also, my background is in the social power of religious myths. https://qmul.academia.edu/HelenPluckrose It's not a reliable epistemology tho & we can have all that without claiming it to be true.
