What an absurd suggestion fobbed off as fact.  The only manner in which this statement could even make -sense- is if you were suggesting that myths were akin to auto-writing, which I'm pretty sure you're not, and it wouldn't be a difference with regards to other types of fiction in any case. If you mean to say that the narratives presented in myth take form, to some extent, based upon the human subconscious.......then, again, that's not a difference with regards to any other subset of fiction (hell, even non-fiction in influenced by our subconscious, in the manner that we frame a story or, at a fundamental level, what we choose to tell stories about). If you mean to say that a myth is different than a NYT police procedural, well, no shit.....but they aren't different in -any- sense of their fictive natures, or that they both express and arise from the authors subconscious mind, or that the author consciously chose the details of one narrative but not the other.

Perhaps you could find some other way to express what you mean here?

Apparently you do not value truth and research as you pretend to..

Your research always seems to come from religious sources.  They start with a belief, and then throw anything in there (mostly lies and misinterpretations) to fit their belief and then hold it up as proof.  They can be easily dismissed as anti-intellectual and not real research.  

Philosophy is like being in a dark room and looking for a black cat.

Metaphysics is like being in a dark room and looking for a black cat that isn't there.

Theology is like being in a dark room and looking for a black cat that isn't there, and shouting "I found it!"  --  after having thrown a flashlight in the trash.

Science is like being in a dark room and looking for a black cat using a flash light.
