Myth, History & Faith
Morton Kelsey
The mysteries of Christian myth and imagination

1 "God has ways of communicating, and the human being has all sorts of depths and capacities for responding."

2 "Scientific discovery itself is not possible without thinking in images and symbols and myths."

3 "Myth is integral to almost every one of man's religions….Myth is essentially the way man talks about his religious encounter with God and the spiritual world."

4 "The more unconscious humans are the less control they have over which myth operates through them."

5 "If these primal spiritual forces – these archetypal powers – can work through the collective unconscious to touch and influence [us] through our myth and ritual and imagination, including imaginative prayer, then we can in actual fact alter the course of history."

6 "In the life, death and resurrection of Jesus of Nazareth, the saving and transforming pattern of reality was CONSCIOUSLY written into the fabric of history."
