Quick question: how can you differentiate between experiencing god, and something else causing you to experience exactly what you would expect god to be like, such as a hallucination?
Possible answers:
(1) I can't. But I think it's more likely the god of the whole universe, all the trillions of planets and galaxies, came to say hi than me going a bit freaky in the head.
(2) I can tell the difference, even though by definition the experiences are exactly the same. I'm not being honest with you, or myself, but I'd rather live in fairy land than reality.
(3) Don't take my god away from me!
