>Yeah bro, you gotta read Greek mythology! It's packed with all this cool and useful stuff and the myths are all super deep! Zeus fucks everything LMAO
>Pffff! Christianity? The Bible? Yeah, it's thousands of years worth of mythological stew and the single most influential text in the history of your civilization, but it's got all this dumb shit in there about Sky Santa and guys living inside whales.

This is a common fate for those that outlive the usefulness that their masters derive from them.

>Nothing because it's true.
Nope. Just because a statement includes vague allusion to facts doesn't mean it's using them properly. The statement being made is still retarded on multiple levels. It assumes that just because something can be explained, that thing is now invalidated and robbed of all value and beauty, which is the exact kind of anti-intellectual bullshit that makes actual science repellent to people in the first place (because Dan Harmon is a jaded brainlet using "lmao science!" as a guise for his self-hatred and compulsive negativity). It also mistakes infatuation for the entire concept of romantic love. Infatuation is itself merely the inciting spark in what is ideally an evolving, lifelong relationship. It's not profound to pick apart the idea of love if you're misrepresenting it as what happens in the month after a teenager's first handjob and not what keeps a 50 year marriage going, very often in spite of the sex drive.
Rick and Morty was okay back before they forgot Rick was supposed to be a drunken fuck up and not le science god.
