I can only speak for myself, but in my life I have never had a spiritual experience. I have never had a spiritual feeling of any kind. In fact I'm not sure what people mean when they talk about having spiritual experiences. The explanations given to me always tend towards vagueness, the kind of vagueness that instantly throws up my bullshit detector.
"You just can't describe it." To me this sounds a mighty lot like "It doesn't exist."
However I can't discount the possibility that such experiences do exist, mostly based on the changes in spirituality or religious feeling often associated with LSD usage, or temporal lobe epilepsy. Some change in the brain happens and people suddenly believe. Is my brain different? Do I lack something others have, or have something others lack? Are people just making it up in mass? Have any of you had a spiritual experience?
