comic books are almost just myths, but the creators don't believe in them fully. some people can be like that but for a lot its better to fully believe in their fantasy world for maximum results.

lol religion is definitely important for writers. the oldest literatures in the world were mostly religious, being either prayers, hymns, religious poems or religious epics.

I don't think you understand that a rational, logical mind isn't usually that useful for creative arts compared to a boundlessly creative one that doesn't give a fuck about being overly rational and these types of minds are usually very influenced by religious notions.

I don't understand ur question btw. I think id answer with theres no real difference between an old myth and a myth in the bible.

btw nothings totally necessary. that's a very subjective thing.

some governments do use religion to control people but id say that's the minority in the history of the world.

stuff like voodoo, Greco roman mysteries and native American religions cant even be used to control people because they are very flexible religions.

lol religions don't usually explain things to make it really easy to understand. they explain things to make it fun and interesting and more personal.

also why do you think only dumb people are drawn to religion?

just because a person is smart doesn't mean theyre necessarily drawn towards the truth.

a good example is Pythagoras. smart mathematician who created a scientology type cult.
