Let's assume for a second that you did experience just such an Old Testament miracle.

A) why would you assume it actually happened if a simpler explanation is that you imagined it and are developing mental illness.

and B) What would you expect to be the reaction of other atheists with whom you shared this experience? And assuming you believed what had happen to you, how would you convey this knowledge to another person besides simply telling them and hoping they believe you?
