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

Christianity as a practiced religion is real. The figures in Christianity which Christians worship are not, at least we have no hard evidence of them being real.

It doesn't imply that Christianity isn't real, but rather it's the focus of their worship that doesn't exist.
