Can it possibly be that the physical, material reality we all know and love is actually an illusion, and that we are really spiritual creatures, that we have a life review in death, as evidenced by the testimony of thousands of NDEs (near death experiences) and OBEs (out of body experiences)?
Many here on HN will laugh at you because there's no peer-reviewed, double-blind, placebo-controlled study for that. Or clearly your are confusing causation and correlation :)
One thing that both terrifies and, oddly, comforts me is that when we zoom out to the highest scales of the universe, its clear that there are questions we cannot answer.
