No knowledge is better than "half knowledge". Taking only what one wants from mythology is very dangerous. I am sure, if one scans the Bible and the Quran, one can find things which are abhorent in this modern world. If my memory is right, the 5 Pandavas did not cohabit with Draupadi on a day to day basis. Similarly, the war was on account of Kauravas refusal even to give 5 villages for Pandavas. What's America doing the world over, fighting wars? Why are they not helping the Tibetians, like they are doing in Iraq? Isn't it because Iraq has oil and was weak, when compared to China.
