How do you know? I am not using more options of different senses than you?
I know because your sentences are nonsensical and incoherent. Take this post for example...

It may make sense to you, but everyone else is struggling to get your point.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell

For you. If I took people's word for it and took baseless assertions on faith alone, no matter how extraordinary the claim may be, I'd believe anything! And that's the path of a deluded fool.
Principles and the requirement of evidence is what allows me to separate fact from fiction. Fantasy from reality. So I can see what's true or not. Science is a method, a tool to open up the unknown and learn. With the application of testability, observation, verification. If a claim cannot be backed up in any rational way, it is useless to me.
So feel free to believe in spirits and all that shite, but I won't. I'll stick to my principles, you stick to your faith. Deluded people? any judgmental tones in that?
My mind may be in the clouds yet my foot is firmly on the ground and many of my world class achievement and road records will speak for its self.
I have faith like you do, in up, down, sideways and so on. As far as faith for any Super Daddy or any ego group, little. Although do learn and share things from every group.
Love and play most of the time, childlike, never harmed anyone, now, that would be foolish. Taxes are sometimes a drag YET Fantasy is a fun part of life. I love many good books and art forms of good fantasy, being an artist. I receive many fine metaphor from many films and books like in Wizard of Oz which has less sex and violent than the bible.
Most of my work is educational art or entertainment; it drags many of those zombies out from their drugged out TV watching that goes on for 30 hours of a week.

You're another one of those - Faith in everything kinda thing.

Firstly, I never stated that drifting off in a fantasy book or film is at all delusional. You're trying to slip out of this.
It's delusional when you really believe in ghosts, spirits, gods and the like. That's delusional.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan
Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.

Well, you found one of my downsides, the English written language.
Although my English speaking is well enough to get what I want.
I hope you do not suffer so much from my writing because I speak other language most of the time, maybe because I don't find English that civilized of a language. My written English is so bad, I must hire people to write my English for my business. From touring around the world and over focusing on the visual art. The upside of this kind of art it’s been around 27,000 years longer than English and take up a much greater worldwide area in history than English, then you got each images makes up for a thousand words. I'm really happy with my millions of fans.

You're sure your right, all this from the 99% unknown world and Universe, WOW.
Is John Lennon self-proclaimed atheists? ambiguous about it for sure, like many great men in history.
However, John Lennon also later stated "I'm not anti-God, anti-Christ or anti- religion. I was not ... Johann Hari, British atheist journalist and a self-described antitheist.

Unfortunately a thousand of your words is unable to carry a coherent conversation. Maybe you should just paint us a picture?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

When I write on spiritual forums, there are a few people there who say I'm a good writer, go figure.
Lots to learn about writing, give me some time. More of the problem is reading how other people think.
When there are two extremes ways of thinking for example, God does not exist and there is only one and right way to God, as their core belief in life. Who can really listen when they are hitting heads.
Happy to be in middle then.

Jesus was pretty much a hippy...
He was probably dirty... And I am just going to say he was lazy...
He never did anything exciting... Although, I hear he was into prostitutes.

You mean the Beatles were the best entertainer in the world ever. When John Lennon said the Beatle were more popular the Jesus Christ (Around the world at that time) they had their music record burning piles across the USA. Nixon felt threaten by Lennon and the biggest change in Russia was because black market Beatle music
How exciting can you get?
