Not taking any more BS.

As for the mass visions they were clearly deluded, but that fact can not be used to say every body who has a religious experience is deluded; that is just not logically correct.

Because some people are deluded, means all people are deluded.

That statement does not stand up to scrutiny.
It just means 70,000 people can be wrong about a vision. And there is also ZERO scientific evidence for visions of God. So if 70,000 people can all think they've seen God, AND there is no scientific evidence, its just one of the many examples and reasons why personal experience is just NOT evidence of God.
I never said this was the only example, you just assumed I believed that. You also assume that I don't think witnesses can ever be trusted (if I understood you correctly). And this is perhaps rather like the assumption you make that God exists.
If many people dream vividly about 'the real Santa Claus' with his magical powers does that count as evidence towards the existence of 'the real Santa', who has magical powers(?)
