Myth Today

I wonder how myth is faring today. We've been discussing myth in class for awhile and all of them just seem like fairytales nowadays. Most I've never even heard of. What about myths people still believe today? Most of us believe that myths are inherently false, but some of us still believe myths today. Catholics, for example, theoretically believe the Holy Bible in its entirety is a completely true account of what has happened in the world. Of course, most probably have doubts as to the validity of the text.
What role do myths play in our world today?
Mythbusters and Video Games seem to be the only places we see myth in contemporary society.
