Well, it has been mentioned, but..
Too many lights.
Way too many lights.

Render with Gamma corection ON
Render with IDL to ON

Start with ONE single infinite light... YOUR SUN !

Use ONE single infite light to "play" SUN => There is ONLY one SUN shining on us.

Even in your preview, I see that all shadows are in the wrong place for the position of your "sun".

And from what I see ?
When rendering, all other lights, light up the places where the "realistic" shadows should be. => Results? No shadows left over.

"Think light".
"Be light".

Think shadow. => Be shadow. 
Remove the light that is shining on you. You should be in the dark as a shadow.

ONLY Indirect Light should be able to reach you as a shadow.
Think Vampire; they fear the sun. They fear direct light.
