Go to a Catholic college and take a few courses on religious history. I studied religion quite extensively at DePaul before it turned into a leftist hell hole. You will find learned Catholic priests who tell how the Jews lifted some of their tales from Phoenician and other creation myths. Your Daffy Duck comment plays into your fear and ignorance of truth. Do your homework and don't dismiss things with the wave of a hand. It is the highest form of ignorance. We are done talking.

OK.

I'll simply assume that means you didn't find non creation in the Catholic Cathechism.

Adios Don Quixote!

JRR Tolkein wrote a lot about myths as well as making a subcreation of his own that has affected an entire half-century of enchanted readers. The conclusion he drew is that the great story of the sacrificial hero is utterly inborn and extant in the heart of a man, to be ignored or nurtured by free will. The free will that sets us apart from animals.

Your beloved apes have no sonnets, no symphonies, and...no heroic myths. But somehow, evos never notice the vital differences between those who are a little less than angels, and the beasts of the forests. Your very obsession with Phoenicians, whatevah, draws an irresistible attention to the abyss between soul and instinct.
