BUZZ!! Wrong, but thanks for playing.
I, at least, feel that there should be an overall Truth that all the various mythic systems of Glorantha veiw in a different way. Something like the story of the blind people and the elephant; different perspectives and parts. The gods are real, but seen differently. There are common experiences for all of Glorantha. There aren't fifteen different gods that all are supposed to be the glowing thing in the sky, just different aspects/perspectives/parts. The God Learners almost saw the elephant, but may have seen a mastodon. That's my take on it, other God Learner aspirants may see it all differently.
Still, folk should use whatever Glorantha suits them. If folk want to play SociologyQuest, fine. :)
