Most religions are started by people thinking a little along this line where they do not believe that their lives are real.
And then there are kings and potentates and other rulers who kill or torture people like this into submission. And this still goes on today, especially in places like North Korea and others.
Hopefully, Trump doesn't take us too far in this direction too because he doesn't appear to believe in Freedom of the Press or Freedom of Speech because of his Narcissistic Personality Disorder prevents him from thinking that way.
For example, Australian aborigines believe that our dreams are real and our physical reality is the unreal thing.
Whereas, Tibetan Buddhists believe that everything is equally real and unreal at the same time, both living on earth and Living in Heaven this is equally true. If I take the position that particle physics does then this view makes the most sense. Because what do atoms mostly consist of?
Space in other words nothing. So, what are we mostly made of? Nothing. IF you think of an atom being like this solar system what does the solar system mostly consist of? Nothing.
Christians believe by being good in this world you get to go to heaven.
Muslims believe that by killing Christians and other unbelievers you get to go to heaven though this may be more like people in ISIS actually practice at present.
Didactic Materialists think anyone in a religion is insane so why not financially take advantage of them?
I suppose I could go on and on but I think you get the idea so far.
