>Plato didn't believe in any sort of anthropomorphic being who brings scriptural revelations to select individuals and cultures as part of some grand unknowable plan.

And that's not even what that anon was claiming, guy. Read his post again:
>Plato regarded the vision of the One as the highest end, thought that the One was what all thought approximates, and thought of the One as the source and summit of all perfections.
This is accurate. Please learn to read and desist your misrepresenting others.

Does anyone know of complete, detailed books about Greek, and/or Roman mythologies? I want to know enough about the past so I don't fucking stutter every five seconds while reading literature. It seems like Shakespeare, and Nietzsche both inundate their ideas with Greek myths. It's hard to get past a paragraph without some names of Greek gods being thrown your way.
