How would you know whether the God you commune with is a 'supernatural' being from another dimension -or- just an aspect of your unconscious mind? Would it matter to you which of these were true?
How do you know the people you commune with on a day to day basis are not just aspects of your unconscious mind? I.e. how do you know solipsism is false?
How do you know you are not a brain in a vat or a body lying in the matrix programmed to think the world you experience is reality when actually it is just a dream?
