Well I actually did for a long time. I was saying the same things you are saying to me now. But problem is, that if you only find reasons why something is true, your opinion is biased from the beginning on.
I don't "understand' psychology, but I do have an insight in the limitations of psychology. does that mean I must believe all those spiritual teachings and such? That's not a reason at all. I understand scientist are just people, just like you, me, Steve and everybody else. Is that prove that people can communicate with spirits? Not at all. I believe Steve is not making this up, but I do believe that Steve his current belief system is the reason he believes this. But that's my opinion.
And about the nice events. There are already nice events happening in my life. I live in peace and am pretty happy with what I do. Not something I could say about myself when I was "practicing" the art of talking to ghosts, and feeling the presence of god.
If you give me advice, I think I am allowed to give you advice too.
Try to find out what science already know, and try to find out what science knows they don't know. Try to find out what they know about meditation and happiness. You will be pleasantly surprised.
Peace
