I'm no fan of Nietzsche, but I do know he loved Homer and felt the later
Greeks were a thinning of the bloodline, so to speak. Does your Plato's
Republic and other works include Plato's "Statesman" ? Plato relates a myth
there-in which is several pages long. Read it sometime and see if you don't
think it has everything to do with the kingdom of god and raising of the
dead myth in late judaism and early christianity.
