I agree with you, but this forum is not the place for a social revolution.
I believe your very correct about religion. Yes, it is adopted by people who cannot think for themselves.
The main BIG difference between what we experience, & religion (in the view of most peoples idea of religion) is belief & faith.
What happens to us needs no faith, no belief. It happens, we can see it, it is there.
Narcoleptic experiences cannot be classed as religious experiences, for the reasons as given above.
Religion in the extreme is demonstrated by Wako, this has NOTHING to do with Narcolepsy.
Yes, some Narcoleptics may be religious (go to church etc.).
The main difference is that religion needs Blind Faith, we don't.
Chances are that this post WILL be removed, as it could upset some people. If so, so be it.
There is such a large difference in our experience & religion it is unbelievable. People cannot seem to grasp the huge difference.
