I wouldn’t be so quick to throw the baby out with the bathwater. Mythology has always been important for how we navigate the world and the unknown, in particular our inner universes; modern day superheroes are a perfect example of what happens when we try to break out from established mythologies — we just end up creating new ones. As for the lessons we can learn from the bible, while a lot of the concepts might be outdated it still contains much that is universal that we can learn from. The trick is in learning how to separate the wheat from the chaff, to distill the essence of the lessons and to adapt them to new circumstances.
