No reason to assume that, they're clearly dolts who were incapable of adequately assessing their own experiences, you're looking for a god that actually exists, correct? In any case, I ran a record fast 5 mile for my battalion once -only once-...I could never duplicate it. Maybe god just got that one call out by luck in the distant past, without understanding how he accomplished it (since we're making assumptions....). Accidents, however happy, don't confer competence.
Plug in whatever you like, perhaps god is babbling constantly but due to the phases of the moon and alignment of the planets (or whatevers clever these days) somebody just overheard a snippet of it.
