I did consider many different possibilities, such as confirmation bias, or that I had something wrong with my brain, or even the idea that I was completely insane, but none of those were in any consistent with the reality I experienced. Insanity, as I have observed, is messy business but my life was becoming more well ordered and not disordered. I was gaining in character and virtue and not losing it. In the end, I don't mind being a fool for Christ. I understand everyone here thinks I am crazy, and that's okay; I love you anyway.
"...but none of those were in any consistent with the reality what I experienced."
Saying it was a reality you experienced is claiming too much. All you can claim is an internal experience. There is no way to objectively verify it.
You had thoughts and emotions, or possibly a delusion. You cannot dismiss that out of hand.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.
