The funny thing is Christians have no way of ruling out causes ranging from scientific explanations to demons and rival gods as being unlikely.
Yes. There are people of all types of religion (e.g., muslim, hindu, etc.) who report religious experiences, and it is logically impossible for all religions to be true (or even any two of them). Consequently, religious experience cannot prove the truth of any religion at all.
