Those would be the prime suspects for pious theater. Ignore the many times we've heard someone concede that some comment was exactly that, on these boards. Take only the subset who make no such concessions. Do you think that they actually experience something akin to their description...or do you think it might be more likely that they are using ritual expression to describe a mundane belief? If it;s the former, why are believers commonly resistant to others claims of divine experience, even within their own faiths subset? If it;s the latter...is there a there, there...at all?
You don't take gods at face value, but do you take "I like..felt god, man!" at face value? What ratio of those claims do you accept as accurately purporting to report a fact? How many of that subset would you expect to be reporting on the same fact between cases?
