Of course, one can dismiss that. It is very simple, actually. Look.
These beliefs are a mix of religion and new aged built up by no greater education than watching chralatans on youtube and based on the same evidence that leads people to believe in horoscopes, homeopathy and that black cats bring bad luck.
They are usually motivated by a bunch of meaningless deepities or just straight ignorance about what modern science really entails. Not to speak of the everlasting hope to extend biological life beyond the obvious irreversible death of our brains.
In that respect, they can be considered not logical conclusions based on no evidence whatsoever. If we do not count wishful thinking as evidence.
How am I doing in dismissing that? Seems really possible after all
