Dr. Craig contradiction.

Okay, fine. But what can Craig say of value to you about what is a non-verifiable, non-repeatable experience? Just "See for yourself?"

But what I wonder about from these reported meetings with Jesus is how the believer goes from the private, intra-psychic experience of being with .. something -> to verifying the alleged omni powers of God.  Presumably it is the immediacy of the meeting which seals the deal, but the content of what gets believed comes from elsewhere.  On account of the experience one becomes resolute in believing a number of things about the nature of God which was in no way conveyed by way of the experience.  Shouldn't that bother people?  What if they're having a genuine experience of some significance and immediately misattributing it out of some pre-existing bias?

Put God in the natural world as an intra-psychic phenomenon or else leave Him in the round file of the supernatural zone.  Your choice.
