People of remarkably high character firmly believe, to the point of calling it knowledge, in demonstrably untrue things....these things can and often do effect change in their life, regardless of whether or not they actually happened. Nothing about a persons character or life changes even speaks to the subject of consideration. Those criteria cannot answer the question to which they've been applied.
Then, ofc, there's the issue of two people, both having remarkably high character, who both seem to have had positively weighted effects in their lives after having some epiphany......trouble is, they have mutually contradictory epiphanies which, by the criteria you offered, would be considered simultaneously true? 2 dozen people? 2 hundred people? 2 million people? 2 billion?
It's unworkable.
