In Chapter 9 of Anatomy of the Sacred, different understandings of origins (cosmogony), across modern and ancient religions, are discussed. Is there one conception that recommends itself to being preferable or true than the others? In other words, can we say that one of the narratives is more literally true, corresponds to reality, and less “mythological” than the others? Make sure you define what you mean by “mythological.” You may find Livingston’s treatment of myth and symbol in Chapter 4 of Anatomy of the Sacred helpful. The section on “Myth’ in Chapter 4: “Sacred Symbol, Myth, and Doctrine” will also be very helpful on this topic.
