Final stretch here, folks....1k 1k 1k 1k 1k!
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

You cant scare anything off that lacks the sense to be scared in the first place.

Schizo-affective disorder. People with mental disorders and delusions have rational minds and are aware of what their experiences are, too. You seem to be under some misunderstanding regarding mental illness. In particular, mental illness impairs one's abilities to reason selectively, and specifically with regard to the content and faculties in specific areas. Outside those areas, people with mental illness are no less functional or capable than people without such conditions. And that's to say nothing of the possibility, broadly speaking, of it being appropriate to categorize certain behaviors that exist independent of a mental disorder as delusional, a topic that spurs much debate. Additionally, personally speaking, I have been free of the delusions which afflicted me and impacted my thinking for several years now.
So while I understand that you sincerely think that being otherwise rational and aware of your experiences makes the possibility of delusions unlikely, it does not. People who are no different from you in that regard suffer delusions all the time. And people who are under delusions also think that they are rational and aware of their experiences, too. So, nice try, but no cigar. Try again. I had shared/mutual experiences that were verified immediately, as I said before. Not only it is very unlikely that we would both be delusional, it is impossible that we would have the same delusion at the exact same time. So, no cigar for you.
I think it's sad that you don't trust your own experiences, because that is all life is made up of. And perhaps you are a bit paranoid about them because you have a mental illness. I have a sister with Bipolar Disorder 1, and she has no problem at all differentiating between the delusions she has had and her actual true life experiences. I guess all mentally ill ppl are different.

More useful info. Mental illness is in your family. What happened there, meat fairy spill it's coffee on the design board? Or did it lay your sibling low in order to teach you how to be a dick?

Yes, that is my whole point. Higher intelligence aka God is this "natural" you are all referring to. And again, we are not the ones who believe in magic. We believe that higher intelligence created this universe.

You believe that you had a shared experience and that the cause of that experience was what you thought it was. As pointed out before, it could have been folie a deux, sloppy thinking, or you could indeed have had a shared experience that had a mundane cause. Bringing up things that you think are evidence as to why you're not deluded and your beliefs are true is of no help. Deluded people do the same thing for the subject of their delusions. Once again, no cigar. Try again.
And yes, all mentally ill people are different.
ETA: Delusions aren't a typical feature of Bipolar I, unless we're simply describing things differently. Maybe she needs a better diagnosis. And maybe she's not deluded in the way she thinks she is.
