There is a difference between the usage of the story as explanation of the physical reality and as a way of interacting with the spiritual reality.
Law works because we assume free will while there is not much room for it. Similarly, a society can be constructed by telling more elaborate stories. Those stories don’t have to be true but they can be formed by many hours of critical thought.
