That is my theory. Carl Sagan also gives a similar like examples, that most hallucinations occur when people are in bed.
If your personal safety is compromised by talking to me here, I don't want to talk to you.
If you have to blend into an intolerant culture, by all means blend.
They can't control, or even, with today's tech, monitor your thoughts.
I believe that the accumulated, evidence supported knowledge supplied by scientific inquiry will sooner or later be so overwhelming and its usefulness so obvious that those who fight it will wither away. Until then, stay safe.
If you haven't been introduced to an onion router, please take a moment to investigate Tor.
As far as I know it can keep you anonymous to anyone not monitoring your first hop.

Regarding your conjecture that dreams and visions during sleep constitute a valid means of finding truth, you have to show evidence that you are able to reproduce the effect before it can be accepted. Your suggestion by itself carries no more weight than my claim that the observations you make are caused by microscopic, invisible insects that crawl into your ear while you sleep and play cards in your brain causing your mind to see visions. I am showing exactly as much evidence for this claim as you are for yours....none.
So how, exactly, does God know that She's NOT a brain in a vat?
