Though i will push back - the capacity for such experiences is still exists. I've definitely had quite cathartic, ecstatic experiences just sitting at a beach or the prime times of day X weather where you can see and feel crepuscular rays.
I am not saying that sublime transformative experiences don't exist. I am saying the OP is a big fat liar. There is enough cool stuff in heaven and and earth to hold us in awe for eternity without resorting to lies. I am forever trying to figure out what we want technology to be. We can use it to expand our capabilities, or to replace them, or to tell ourselves lies. VR is a good thought experiment. Can it make us more human? Are 3 dimensions really a worse use of our time than 2? Maybe we should all skip our phones into the sea and take in the crepuscular light instead.
