Sorry, I misunderstood, I thought your passage that I quoted was a contribution to an ongoing discussion. I asked "therefore what?" to try to encourage you to articulate, so that I could understand, what implications you were drawing from your observation that the cult of the Mother is possibly the longest lasting cult known to humankind, in the context of that discussion. It seemed that you were using the longevity and distribution of the cult as evidence, or at least suggestive, of something. Perhaps I am mistaken, perhaps you are drawing no implications but simply making an observation.

On the contrary, however, discussion of reality, such as might take place on a discussion thread, can only start once one has found a form of words which approximate a representation, or give some hint or suggestion as to the nature, of that reality.
