This is a very long article on a religious/mythological subject, and I am not sure why Hacker News needs to read it. A summary would be much appreciated.

- perceptronas 6y agoTo be fair, its now that long. It is <2500 words, similar size to common news article. As for religious/myth subject - if its interesting what's the issue?
- ganzuul 6y agoThere are a lot of people writing on the subject and not all have particularly high standards. What sets this apart?
- perceptronas 6y agoThere are people writing on the subject of programming languages/software engineering and not everyone has high standards too. However, everyone can share their different takes and views, discuss issues. If its not interesting for anyone and nobody upvotes - thread will sink to the bottom of HN

- abdulhaq 6y agoThere is no being called "Hacker News" and no-one is saying that "Hacker News" _should_ read it. If enough individuals like it and are interested by it, it will be voted up and more can read it. If you don't want to read it, then don't. Simples.
