I strongly recommend Sapiens: a short story of humanity by Yuval Harari if you'd like to think about this a bit more, particulary his concept of 'myths'.

I'd guess that you'd find a summary of that chapter online without buying the whole book.

Thanks for the recommendation! I'll definitely have to check it out sometime. :D
