Deep Space 9: The Prophets are future Bajorans that evolved beyond space & time, which is why they refer to themselves as "of Bajor" and have such a high interest in the fate of its people. The Pah-wraiths are just future evolved asshole Bajorans like Kai Winn & Jaro Essa.
Didn't the show hint at this already? I don't think that's just a fan theory.
What about the theory that all of DS9 and therefore Star Trek are all in citizen Sisko's mind just as a hopeful future.
Allegedly, Ira Behr wanted to end the series by making it all a fever dream by Benny Hill but Berman wouldn't let him.
