praxeologist on Nostr: ...

I’ve never been deeply drawn to mythology, but I’ve noticed the recurring theme of scarcity. In myths and ancient beliefs, there’s always a limited number of divine beings or supernatural forces shaping existence. From the singular, all-powerful gods of monotheistic traditions to the pantheons of ancient Greece or Norse mythology, these figures are always finite.

This scarcity is what made myths so captivating. Imagine if there were thousands of Zeuses or Thors—what would happen to the sense of wonder? The uniqueness would fade, and with it, the awe that draws people to these stories.

For the first time in human history, though, we have something in the material world that’s provably scarce—and yet, some people still fail to appreciate its beauty!
