The Importance of Water in Mythology and Religion

i thought we might take a lot of what we've discussed here and take it into the realm of mythology and religion. One of the key aspects of tears is that they tend to run clear, or clearer, than anything else that's can secrete from a human being. They are our body producing water. And so mythology especially, this is enough to connect the tears of mortals, but especially the tears of demi gods and gods,. with the rain, with oceans, with rivers and floods. All of these, of course, are our bodies of water that play heavily into myth cycles as well.
