I suppose you're correct, your entire reality is based on what your senses tell you. Those who are taught to accept logic & reasoning as their sole course towards reality must conclude thats all that exists. Since no evidence exists to state otherwise this must be so, or its simply a matter that we are unable to grasp certain concepts because we dont have the capacity to analyze or measure such things as faith (religious, spiritual or otherwise.)
While it is true that certain meditative and religious states can be seen & measured on an EEG, the essence of what these states are based on remains elusive.
