There are 2 explanations for what happened: 1. me and the person I was with are both insane and had the exact same delusion at the exact same time, or 2. what we experienced really did happened.
The problem with believing in god does not follow the same protocol of one with obvious mental illness. Guaranteed, I consider belief in god a mental illness, alright, but it is so common place, such a world wide phenomenon that those in the field of mental health are blind to the obvious harm such religious belief causes. Even merely believing in a deity that does not exist is just as harmful as those who go to extremes because of those beliefs, because goodness knows the extremes would not exist if religion was not such a disease.
