Well I think Glorantha does have a lot of room for intellectual play, and for analysing myths and how they work - a sort of well past Frazerian Joseph Campbell kind of thing from what I can mak out, drawing from ALL real world mythologies generously it would seem to me?

However why do you say Greg has thrown the gods out? That confused me???
