To most of the world, yes.
More Information:
Although it is correct to say that The Bible is considered to be mythology, it is important to define the term as it is used by scholars of literary criticism. A "myth" is a story that provides meaning beyond the literal details contained in the narrative. Myths speak to specific cultures or communities, providing common history, identity and spiritual purpose. To say that a story is "myth" says nothing about the story's historical or factual truth.
For further information on Myths, see the writings of Joseph Campbell, particularly The Power of Myth by Joseph Campbell and Bill Moyers
