Description

On this episode, I trace back the usage of fire and light as symbolism for wisdom and knowledge via bringing up Genesis, the myth of Prometheus, animism, the resurrection, Plato's allegory of the cave, and the Zoroastrian religion. This acts as the introduction to begin discussing the first section of 'Zarathustra's Prologue'.
