Who says I found anything? Who says I’m superior? You’re making up a lot of content here, inserting a lot of insults and disparaging comments I never made. I simply pointed out some well documented, well understood human societal trends. You’re the one that decided that’s me declaring myself superior to people. You should ask yourself why it bothers you so much. I have yet to say anything that disparages or inflates me anybody and yet you’re pretty upset. If somebody in this conversation is indulging in childish-self comfort it ain’t me.

Who says I’m superior?

You do, when you tell people that their very real and tangible experiences that defy conventional explanation, were merely ... Because we’re afraid to die and we want to be special. Encounters with things that “survived” death in some way feeds both, it makes us special today and gives us hope that death is not the end tomorrow.

You think yourself so superior that you discern our error while we remain blissfully self-deceiving. That is pretty much the opinion I see you expressing here, though more diplomatically.
