I know I had some amazing experiences with God when I went to church (stepping into the light, power of God felt in church, Holy spirit communicating to me after being baptized) and those are not even the experienes I had that proved God to me beyond any doubt.
Or more likely you had temporal lobe epilepsy

Quote:The limbic system is also often suggested as the critical site of religious experience due to the association with temporal lobe epilepsy and the emotional nature of the experiences. Neocortical areas also may be involved, suggested by the presence of visual and auditory hallucinations, complex ideation during many religious experiences, and the large expanse of temporal neocortex. In contrast to the role of the temporal lobe in evoking religious experiences, alterations in frontal functions may contribute to increased religious interests as a personality trait. The two main forms of religious experience, the ongoing belief pattern and set of convictions (the religion of the everyday man) versus the ecstatic religious experience, may be predominantly localized to the frontal and temporal regions, respectively, of the right hemisphere.

She might need to understand evolution first.
