Mythology is an artist doing psychology/psychiatry unknowingly. Why would anyone worship Nurgle from W40K? The Olympian gods represent our psyche, they are real in the sense that we behave as if they were. It doesn't matter whether they truly walk the earth or not. When you see something weird in mythology, look underneath the surface level, what does it represent? A part of you.

>A lot of those morals will seem alien because they're over 2,000 years old.
Not really because the core ideas are the same, just wrapped in a different bow. 5000 or even 50000 years didn't make a dent on the deep archetypes of our nervous system, evolution is too slow for that.
