You "personal experiences" have as much credibility as me saying on the stand that I witnessed a murder in Aurora, Ilinois, after it was proven I was in work in Clonmel, Tipperary at the time of the incident.(March 6, 2018 at 2:30 pm)Simon Moon Wrote: If the god you believe in, interacts with the natural world (performing miracles, healing people, etc) then in fact, there is something to test.
Most of the Christians I know, claim to have a 'personal relationship with God/Jesus'. They are claiming to be "God detectors". That is a testable claim.
If they claim that god heals people, that is also a testable claim.
I'm not sure that's true.
All you could test for was a known naturalistic cause. Absent that, most atheists will just claim miracles have unknown naturalistic causes.
Most atheists deny the personal experiences of Christians as some sort of delusion/misrepresentation/misunderstanding/confusion. There is nothing to 'test' because the other side of the equation is supernatural and as a result, cannot be detected in a lab.
