Apparently due to an immense extent of semantics , you pointed out yourself through the mentioning of Sufi . Ironic is the lable western and the non-Islamic "one" . We got this "God" instead

But this semantical bias that the left-side is showing us , has been applied to a variety of religions and not only the Abrahamic ones . Greek & Egyptian mythology has been studied from this perspective , is that not simply letting ancient wisdoms go to waste because of a simplistic and centric world-view ?

I have little to nothing knowledge on Greek & Egyptian mythology except that they were the belief of those ancient civilizations. Perhaps you guys might be able to shed more light on them with a different perspective.
