We call ours "beliefs" and we call theirs myths. I particularly liked the Norse myths because when the end of the world comes even the gods perish along with everyone else. Not hard to see why that belief system didn't catch on.
Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

I don't know about your imagination, but I would say certainly within the psyche of humankind as they have in various forms and under different names since prehistoric times.
I don't mean this in a contemptuous way. It's not bad or "stupid" it's just what I think people do in order to fulfill certain psychological and social needs. Taking a historical perspective, I don't see any reason to believe in one mythology over any other that has ever existed. I think we're missing a mythology that serves the modern world and have been for some time. Just my $.02
