The Mythos in this sense has departed modern culture, more or less, as science has centered on Logos. But the odd thing is, Logos is not material and science is material. So there seems to be a tension, conflict or contradiction here.

I would say that of the two, Logos and Mythos, the Evolutionary Christian Church centers more on the Mythos. We see the Mythos more as the Object and the Logos as denotating and mirroring the object, which seems to be the opposite of the Gnostic view.
