[edit] Comments
Perhaps there should be some explanation of how this differs in concept from Jung's theories about archetypes in mythology 216.165.122.26 (talk) 20:10, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
I'v never heard of this and I'm not a big fan of memes in general. Mytheme sounds like a ridiculous and pointless word with no inherent descriptive value, especially as it is found used in other Wikipedia articles. How would using this word serve to help the reader understand the topic more than if a discussion occured using commonly known, less controversial, and more descriptive words?

- It is a valid word in the academic studies. Needs to be sourced and explained though. Goldenrowley

- Memetics is like the handicapped little brother structuralism keeps locked up in the back room out of embarrassment: there is little connection between the two intellectually or conceptually, and structuralism winces at its brother's inherit evolutionary-functionalism and use of buzz words, like "virus". --Le vin blanc (talk) 17:35, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
