There is more than one way to heaven.

I'm not saying that Unicorns never existed, nor Jesus nor Horus - what i am saying is that nobody knows whether or not they ever existed, and while there may be cave drawings or hearsay about them that does not qualify any level of certainty about their existence.
And what I'm saying is the caveman had to have seen something that caused him to draw it on a wall. Where did he come up with the idea to give it 2 horns on the front, 4 legs, a tail and the stature of a horselike creature? You can prove the tangible in the now that we have no fossilized remain of anything resembling a "unicorn" or you can trace the the logical progression of the story back to something and see the truth that the unicorn myth probably cam from this creature (I'm not statig it just just an assertion).

I agree. We can compare their experience to our personal reality that we can observe and see if they're congruent.

Everyone see's patterns and coincidences and we remember them because they are the improbable, we can't chose coincidence because that would invalidate it, so it hardly stands to reason that whether or not you want them makes a difference.

But it does make a difference. It's the difference between whether you are the next cause in the chain or are being affected by someone else's cause. Tests with God ok. When I doubt God or am at my spiritually low points "coincidences" ALWAYS arise through some unrelated randomness to put me back in God's Love. When I've given up hope in humanity, I always meet someone which rekindles that hope. When I'm uncertain which road to choose, the road always chooses me and it's the right road. Theese are just some of many and I have a lot of posts to get to.

Goes back to being affected or affecting others through free-will.

I'm not going to say that none of it is possible, but i'm sure as hell not going to dive head first into believing the testimony of primitive people or anyone for that matter, especially considering the amount of delusion present in the world, the strange pattern seeking in humans such as pareidolia, nor the fact that many people would make up such claims for power, money and cheap thrills.

I don't think I'm diving "head first into believing the testimony of primitive people or anyone for that matter" except my own reality.
