A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

Laittakaa meemejä tänne.

It is real because we all believe it. The video game is a good example, we can shut it down and all your items are gone. Same with economy.
It's real because we practice it. If we stopped commerce that doesn't disprove the existence of the economy, it just ends one existing economy.
If we all stopped talking it wouldn't prove the spoke word is a myth.
To come back to the meme: it implies that while the sun is real, the Christianity isn't. But it is as long as it's practiced, same with economy
It doesn't imply that Christianity isn't real, but rather it's the focus of their worship that doesn't exist.
