10 sane people hallucinating the same murderer the same victim, the same place, etc...that's not logical. But in a court room, it's always about beyond reasonable doubt. Because 100% certainty won't be achieved except rarely.
But the case of God, Angels, Jinn...there is an explanation, and that is the role of dogma and religion with mental illness or hallucinations.
What murder, they hallucinated it. What victim, again a hallucination. What place? These ten people saw a murder which no one else saw, there is no body to be found, there is no suspect to apprehend.......somebody check the water (or the bread). Whether the hallucinatin is comprised of jinn or cute little kitties the mechanism is the same. Its a fun subject, but I don't actually think we have to invoke hallucination for Strodels testimony (as an example). Lying for jesus is immensely more likely.
