Myth means the telling word. For the Greeks, to tell is to lay bare and make appear---both the appearance and that which has its essence in the appearance, its epiphany. Mythos is what has its essence in its telling---what is apparent in the unconcealedness of its appeal. The mythos is that appeal of foremost and radical concern to all human beings which makes man think of what appears, what is in being. Logos says the same; mythos and logos are not, as our current historians of philosophy claim, placed into opposition by philosophy as such; on the contrary, the early Greek thinkers (Parmenides, fragment 8) are precisely the ones to use mythos and logos in the same sense. Mythos and logos become separated and opposed only at the point where neither mythos nor logos can keep to its original nature. In Plato's work, this separation has already taken place. Historians and philologists, by virtue of a prejudice which modern rationalism adopted from Platonism, imagine that mythos was destroyed by logos. But nothing religious is ever destroyed by logic; it is destroyed only by the God's withdrawal.

"The number of animals consumed in agriculture each year is estimated to be around 146 billion, approximately 56 billion land animals and 90 billion aquatic animals. [...] The number of animals consumed for food every eight months is roughly equal to the total number of Homo sapiens that have ever lived in the entire fifty-thousand-year history of the species."

- Streiffer and Basl, Ethical Issues in the Application of Biotechnology to Animals in Agriculture, 2011, chapter in The Oxford Handbook of Animal Ethics, page 827
