Are we looking for the meaning of life in all the wrong places? We are a product of evolution. The consequence of our evolution so far is that we can perceive four dimensions only. Yet we know there are many more. Our mathematics tells us this. But even if mathematics did not tell us this, why would we think it not true? Add to this the knowledge the fact that countless millions of people from all cultures have glimpses into another realm that we cannot comprehend it via near death experience's, and it is easy to conclude: 1.Our brains contain a lot of information via our perceptions, but not all we need to perceive the true nature of reality; and 2. there is probably more to the world than meets the eye. So look everywhere for yourself, for he meaning of life. Religion is just one of many other places to look. After all, it is also a construct of a limited brain. But as long as there is more than meets the eye, nothing is off the table, and we all owe it to ourselves to think outside the box, to make our own inquiries, and to not just believe in nothing ,or what others believe. There are countless places to look, but I recommend going to the neuroscientists like Donald Hoffman ( I think his name is), lay articles about the latest in quantum physics, and places that accumulate information on near death experiences, like nderf.org Have fun!
