Could it be that similar factors that developed our moral sense also developed our spiritual sense? That in the past, as we evolved, we felt a need as we grew more empathetic and attached to our loved ones and people in general, that we needed to believe they survived after death. The same can be said about the love we had towards ourselves. It can also be said that belief in reward and punishment after death could have been important.
Just how morality developed, spirituality would've developed in evolution for survival reasons.
Now just like morality is not proven to be an illusion and most believe in a reality to morality that makes ought to act a certain way, can the same be said about spirituality, that our spiritual sense even though developed through evolution developed in a way that connects to a truth about ourselves as opposed to an illusion?
