What if we are all alone and every god, religion and magical system was an egregore?

Just having an existential moment here. I came to magick and the occult to get a cosmology more closer to the "truth" (i come from a christian background, so something more realistic than the Creation story in genesis).

But going through deconstruction of christianity made me think... what if every metaphysical thing is just an egregore. Like every religion, every god, every magickal system, everything we have ever imagined is just an egregore...its just us and our egregores we've made in the cosmos.

I mean every magickal system was created by someone at some point right? A whole bunch of people believed in it, and boom a new magick with its own logic that works.

What if God, Jesus, Allah, Buddha were common men, but egregores of them were created from people telling legends about them for centuries?

And in the occult, no one really prove anything can they, especially afterlife?

I mean yes you can definitely know if you've made contact with a presence, but how do we know its a a being that existed way before us, or a centuries old egregore that has gained its own intelligence.

It just makes me wonder, what is real then?

Just us and our thoughtforms?
