    They seem pretty clueless about all popular culture more than five years old. They have no idea when he talks about the film of the geek making a female robot either. Whoosh! Straight over their heads. Clueless. That's the current generation for you. Dumb as a bag of rocks

    I seem to recall that Aphrodite was born from Cronos' genitalia when thrown into the sea? Family stuff comes full circle when Adonis gored and castrated by the boar. So so fascinating, thank you, brilliant lecture.
