As cultures, we identify ourselves through the collective dreams we call creation myths, or cosmogonies. … Creation myths explain in metaphorical terms our sense of who we are in the context of the world, and in so doing they reveal our real priorities, as well as our real prejudices.
Como culturas, identificámonos por medio de soños colectivos que chamamos mitos da creación, ou cosmogonías. … Os mitos da creación explican en termos metafóricos o noso sentido de quen somos no contexto do mundo, e ao facelo revelan as nosas prioridades reais, así como os nosos prexuízos reais.
