Yes! we can do better than that.
I think we can ALL do better. Several people have contested Gemini's story. As an observer, my impression was that any of those who questioned his story might have been interpreted as 'harsh.'
Gemini's story need not be either true or a fabrication. Those aren't the only 2 options.
There is a 3rd option: Maybe all this really did happen, in the inner planes of his mind.
Gemini, might I offer a suggestion?
I have experienced many fantastic things. I have swum with whales and dolphins, dove down to the bottom of the ocean, flown with birds, traveled the far reaches of the galaxy, ridden on the backs of dragons, visited temples in the inner planes, conversed with LightBeings, communicated with Nature Spirits, played music on the rings of Saturn, moved mountains and rivers, and even flown into the heart of the Sun.
I haven't yet gotten around to creating any galaxies, though.

I've also witnessed bodily death, and felt the lifeforce leaving my body...I've gone back in time to the Middle Ages and visited the Druids...I've traveled with shamans on the inner planes...
...and much more I might not be remembering.
All these things happened to me, in my meditations and visualizations. (And that's not even counting dreams!)
Were these experiences real?
Absolutely!
But real in the sense that they occurred in some dimension of consciousness.
I see most of these experiences as working with Archetypes, who took certain forms in order to work with me, to facilitate spiritual work or healing.
An Archetype might appear to me as a person, or a dragon, or whatever.
When I visit the Sun in my meditation, I am visiting the Sun as Archetype.
If I had a dream about paying a fine or going to jail, I would likely see that as symbolic, rather than assuming money necessarily exists in a certain density. For me, in that particular meditative experience, that particular symbolism was necessary to convey a certain meaning or message.
At the end of my meditation, I am back in my 3D body, sitting here at the computer, using my physical fingers to type.
Gemini, perhaps the reason many people are having some issues with your story is that it is presented as being factual in our present 3D reality. Perhaps if you clarified for us that these were visualizations, or meditations, that might help us better understand your experiences.
Have you considered evaluating these experiences as one might interpret a dream, probing the mysteries of the symbols contained therein?
