[Torg] Spirit Axiom and Cross-Cosm Mythos?

I'm hoping someone can give me an "official" answer to this question 
that has been bugging me.

I understand that we have a Spirit axiom.  I also understand that when 
this axiom gets high enough the rules start talking about things like 
the "dominant mythos" and "enemy mythos".  My interpretation of this, if 
I can give an example, is that if the dominant mythos in a high Spirit 
cosm is a religion called "Foo", and there's another high Spirit cosm 
with a dominant religion of "Bar", people from Foo-World can't perform 
miracles in Bar-World and vice versa, at least not without spending a 
possibility.  Am I understanding this right?

My second question is if you have two worlds with the same dominant 
mythos, can the entities worshiped (presumably gods) go back and forth 
between these cosms?  Do they exist in both?  Are these mythoses 
(mythi?) truly the same or are we talking about fundamentally different 
religions, because they are in different cosms, even if all observable 
aspects are identical?

Hopefully my questions make enough sense for you to sort out what I'm 
asking.  I'm not feeling too well today.

Jeff
