Myth and Ritual in Christianity (Alan Watts)

This is Alan Watts before he was Alan Watts. Bypassing theology and viewing Christianity from a purely mythological lens, Watts makes the argument that original Christianity is far more perennial than the modern church appears.

As someone who grew up with a minister as a father…

And has gravitated towards the perrenial philosophy, but cannot escape the symbolism of the Christian myth…

This was a rich reading experience.

(can get dry in some explanation of things, but the gold nuggets are worth it)
