I honestly kinda believe the Anunnaki mytholgy to be more credible than creationism. Intersting story I think:

It seems like creationism is founded on the Anunnaki mythology. Its about an advanced alien civilization from planet Nibiru which circulates on an orbit passing through our solar system every 3000 years. In ancient times they visited earth to mine gold to use for atmospheric control of their planet. Their first settlement was ancient sumeria. They designed homo sapiens as a slave work force by splicing homo erectus (cave men) and Anunnaki dna. To ensure a large number of workers they designed a second gender so thry could reproduce. Due to rapid reproducting overpopulation became a problem and those who reproduced got banished from the "paradise". By the time the Anunnaki set up multiple space ports around the world, like in Egypt, Mexico or Peru.

Tolkien talked to C. S. Lewis about a "true myth" meaning Christianity.

I think that they have some truth in them, but mostly are fiction but it would be really cool if they would be real and if we really had some legends in our history and all

they are fictions obviously. myths is the result of people having no idea and just talking out of their ass to find "some" explanation. it sure shows people are creative but it has nothing to do with truth.

that doesn't mean a mythology can not end up actually bing true but that would be a very unlikely coincidence.

Depends on which ones you’re talking about.

Anything is possible. Not everything is probable

[ArtemisSilver]

They often contain elements of truth, for example both the bible and the epic of Gilgamesh reference a cataclysmic flood and were likely referring to the same large scale disaster.

[Cubus]

At least partly true. For example Troy War - we've found Troy actually and know it used to exist.

[OddBeMe]

What’s the definition of “myth”?

[AviatorTom]

There is usually some truth in every myth.

[Guy13]

Yes they are.

[Anonymous]

Myth means nobody knows for sure.
