The difference in myth and religion is that myths never really happened, whereas the things listed in legitimate religions did really happen.

This is why no one believes in Odin or Thor crap any more, but real religion will never die. Granted that these days secular humanists and apostates vastly out-number legitimate believers, but even so legitimate believers in religion will always be a force to be reckoned with because of the inherent truth of their religion (which myths lack).
Okay, I think I understand what you're saying. It seems that the real difference between religion and myth is faith.

Your faith tells you that Jesus did pull the fish out of nowhere and feed the crowd. On the flip side, because your faith tells you that your religion is the only true faith, Odin and all of his pals must be nothing more than myths by default.

Although either set of stories was just as likely to have happened (read: not very) your faith tells you that one is true and the other is a lie.
