Wole Soyinka Doesn’t Need Religion; He is a Mythologist by Folake(f) : 3:00 am |
Nobel Laureate winner Professor Wole Soyinka has said that he has never felt the need for any religion. Soyinka who described himself as a mythologist during the public presentation of his two-volume collection of essays, further revealed that he doesn’t worship deities even though he considers deities as creatively real. “Do I really need one (religion)? I have never felt I needed one. “I am a mythologist. I believe that people have a right and cannot help creating mythologies around themselves, around their experiences about what they project from the inner recesses of their minds as answers to questions. “And so I find nothing wrong with utilising mythologies as part and parcel of my creative warehouse. “But religion?
