The world of mythology
Myths and legends are a universal human invention. All races, without exception, have possessed their own unique mythology, which has arisen at different times and in different places, as explanations of the critical problems that people always face. When a myth comes into existence, people believe it with their heart and soul. It's because of this that myths are more than just stories ― every myth is a shaft of human truth. One person's myth is another's religious belief ― one person's truth, another's fiction. Nearly all religions in the world have a mythological dimension, which often owes a debt to previous beliefs.
