Even if we knew we were immaterial minds and that physical reality was an illusion we would still have to navigate it as if it were not an illusion.

To a certain extent that would be true, but then it begs the question of where to draw the line as in the end, everything is meaningless.
What difference does meaning make when there's no one around for anything to be meaningful to? Does some future point where there is no one left to care retroactively make all previous caring misguided? I think we try to make 'meaning' carry more freight than it can, or needs to.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
