Yeah....I don't know that we're talking about the same sorts of religious experience. Learning about QM is mind opening, challenging...but when I think religious experience I think clouds open, light seems to shine down in a beam on you - you hear music, nothing can touch you -the bad guys can't even see you because you're channeling Ares.
Or, for those inclined, feeling the warmth of god as a physical force.
Sensing the presence of christ, the numinous...
That sort of thing (really, anything that falls on the periphery of incredibly grandiose "sensing"). Let me ask you this. When a born again christian says he had a religious experience, that he felt the presence of god-and that this led him to christ. Do you imagine that your philosophical experience regarding QM is similar to what he's describing?
